The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1973
Joshua walked slowly toward her and extended his hand.
"Star, shall we head back and talk?"
Stella stared at his outstretched palm.
After a beat of hesitation, she reached out and let him intertwine his fingers with hers.
Leonard's expression turned somber.
Mr. Burton, Old Mr. Wyatt, and Colby all exchanged complicated looks.
Stella stood up. "I'm sorry for the disturbance, everyone. Joshua and I are going home."
Mr. Burton simply waved them off.
Hand in hand, Stella and Joshua walked away.
Watching their retreating figures, a faint ripple of emotion stirred in Leonard's dark gaze.
Even though Joshua had done wrong and lied to her, she was still willing to grant him grace and preserve his dignity in public.
It was a kind of devotion Leonard had never experienced, and likely never would.
...
Once back at the house, Stella and Joshua faced each other in heavy silence for the first time.
Joshua was a brilliant man; he knew without a doubt that the game was up.
Finally, he was the one to break the quiet.
"See that, Star? You can never trust outsiders with anything important."
Stella stared at him. "Then why did you choose Colby Hunt?"
Joshua didn't try to hide anything. "I considered buying off other doctors, but they came with too many unpredictable variables.
I'd crossed paths with Dr. Hunt before and done him a favor. He was much easier to control than the alternatives."
"How could you be so sure Old Mr. Wyatt would recommend him?" she asked. "What if he had chosen someone else?"
The corner of Joshua's mouth tipped up in an enigmatic curve.

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
