The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1948

Somehow, the male lead's parents had found out about her condition and came to have a harsh conversation with her.

Their message was brutally simple. "He already threw away his future abroad once for you. Now... it's your turn to do something for him."

Everything she did after that was nothing more than a calculated act to force him into breaking up with her.

The scene jumped again, landing right back at the opening moment of the film.

The male lead stared in absolute disbelief at the woman before him. He never could have imagined that the brilliant, proud girl he once loved was now scrubbing floors in a corporate office.

Realizing she had been exposed, the female lead tore her wrist from his grip and sprinted away.

She quit her job that very day and vanished into thin air.

Her desperate behavior tipped the male lead off that something was terribly wrong. He tracked down her best friend, demanding to know how her life had derailed so completely.

Tearfully, the friend confessed everything—her fatal diagnosis and the agonizing, selfless reason she had chosen to end things years ago.

Finally realizing how horribly he had misunderstood the love of his life, he mobilized every resource he had to find her.

After a frantic search, he finally tracked her down in a hospital.

Watching the screen, Stella fully expected a tearful reunion where they cleared up the misunderstanding and got back together. But instead, a beautiful young woman walked into the hospital room to visit the female lead.

On her ring finger rested a wedding band identical to the one the male lead was wearing.

It was painfully obvious—he was already married.

Seeing the woman enter, the male lead offered her a warm, gentle smile, his eyes filled with profound affection.

He calmly introduced the two women to each other, making no effort to hide the fact that the dying woman in the bed was his ex-girlfriend.
