The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 2117

"I'm really curious, what kind of person is your ex-husband?"

Joshua looked at her with a smile. "By the way, when are your ex-husband and son coming over next time?

"As Star's new friend, it's only right that I meet them and treat them to a meal so we can get to know each other."

Sweat began to bead on Stella's forehead.

Stella felt she had really outsmarted herself. Why did she have to bring up Haynes for no reason?

Wasn't she just asking for trouble?

Great, now she had successfully shifted Joshua's interest from her to Haynes and Keen.

Stella picked up the glass on the table and took a sip of water to cover her panic.

"You misunderstood. I never thought about remarrying him," Stella could only try to smooth things over. "Besides, even when he drops Keen off, we rarely go out together.

"Since we're exes, it's not appropriate to be too close.

"So... dinner won't be necessary."

"I see..." Joshua murmured. "That makes sense. Since you don't want to be together anymore, you should maintain some distance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."

Stella didn't dare mention her ex-husband again and quickly changed the subject.

"Weren't you going to show me that token?"

Joshua didn't push the issue either and stood up.

"Let's go."

Stella let out a sigh of relief.

She followed Joshua upstairs.

The massive villa was empty and quiet. Only the sound of their footsteps could be heard. There was no one else around, nor were there any other noises. It felt cold and eerie.

"Do you usually live here alone?" Stella asked.

Joshua gave a casual hum of agreement and pushed open a door.

Stella realized that this room was actually Joshua's bedroom.

The decor in Joshua's bedroom was the same minimalist black, white, and gray.

The room was neat and clean, without any superfluous decorations.
