The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1759
He had insisted Stella come pick up the parts in person, even though he could have easily sent an assistant. He had been looking for an excuse to see her even then.
Hearing Leonard's words, Stella lowered her gaze, hiding the thoughts in her eyes. She picked up the basket. "Let's go back. These ingredients are most effective when they're fresh."
Leonard took the basket from her. "I'll carry it."
Stella glanced at him but didn't protest.
Not long after they returned to the house, a servant delivered the herbs Stella had requested. Making the medicinal tonic was different from making regular soup; it required constant supervision and careful control of the heat, making it an exhausting process.
Leonard came downstairs several times and saw Stella tending to the pot. "Let a servant watch it," he couldn't help but say. "Go get some rest."
"No," Stella refused. "If even one step is done wrong, the medicinal effects of this broth will be greatly diminished, or even lost entirely."
Leonard watched Stella's cheeks flush from the steam and found her incredibly alluring. His gaze fixed on her lips, and his throat tightened as his eyes darkened.
When Stella casually looked up, she met Leonard's deep, intense stare. Her hand, which was stirring the broth, trembled, and she accidentally touched the hot clay pot. A sharp pain shot through the back of her hand, leaving a red mark.
Leonard's expression changed. He strode over, grabbed her hand, and examined it closely.
Stella instinctively tried to pull away, but Leonard frowned. "Don't move. Let me see."
