The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 2023

Hearing this, a look of pure humiliation crossed Jonathan's face.

As the eldest son of the Williams family, he had been groomed as the heir since childhood. In both The Williams Group and the family itself, he commanded immense authority, second only to Skyler.

Even the shareholders of the Nora faction used to give him a wide berth.

Previously, although Stella had garnered half the support within the company, Jonathan still held the upper hand when it came to decision-making and execution.

But now, having to operate under Stella's thumb was something the once all-powerful Jonathan simply couldn't stomach.

He was the legitimate, rightful heir, not some criticized illegitimate child.

His actions and demeanor had always been honorable and upright. Forcing him to swallow his pride and bow down to Stella felt worse than death itself.

Aurora took in every shift of his expression.

She continued, "Jonathan, it's our only option right now. You just have to endure it a little longer."

"Stella will inherit Leonard's shares in three months," Jonathan said coldly. "At that point, we'll be even more powerless against her.

Am I just supposed to keep enduring forever?"

Aurora offered a cunning smile. "Jonathan, Joshua and Stella broke up, and he's left Solmaris. Without him backing her, taking back what she stole will be easy.

Even if she inherits Leonard's shares, the Lerman family is a complicated mess. How could an outsider like her possibly control them?"

She gently caressed her pregnant belly, her smile widening. "There are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests.

Stella and Leonard used to be at each other's throats, yet she still accepted his shares, didn't she?

Once she takes them, she immediately puts herself at odds with Harland Lerman.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

We can absolutely ally ourselves with Harland."
