The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 2131

*"Once I accept the hypnosis... every memory of our time together over the past two years will be completely wiped away.

"Every trace of your existence in my world will be scrubbed clean.

"We might never see each other again, or we might cross paths years from now.

"I might remember you, or I might not.

"But even if I do remember you, will we just end up like the couple in that movie?

"Star, human nature can rarely withstand the test of time.

"That's why I only care about right now. I don't care about the future."*

It was true. His profound, consuming love for her was forged in the fires of their life-and-death trauma.

Without those memories anchoring him, even if he did fall for her again, it would never burn with the same terrifying intensity.

His feelings for her had always followed a visible trajectory.

From initial aloofness, to mutual appreciation, and finally to a bond solidified by surviving hell together.

He was never the type to obsessively love someone down to their bones without a profound reason, nor was he the type to believe anyone was truly irreplaceable.

Without the weight of those shared experiences, he would do exactly as he just said: walk away easily, without an ounce of lingering entanglement.

Suddenly, a deafening crack echoed through the sky.

A brilliant burst of fireworks shattered the darkness, painting the night sky in vibrant colors.

The show had begun.

Stella looked up, a heavy, unnameable emotion swelling in her chest.

She didn't say another word, and neither did he.

The two of them sat quietly in the pavilion, watching the sky ignite.

Thanks to modern technology, the display was a breathtaking spectacle.
