The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 541

Stella listened quietly as Florrie shared all the latest gossip.

From Florrie, she learned that Aurora had no shortage of admirers. In fact, the men who liked her were all outstanding in their own right.

Sherman, compared to the rest of these young men, hardly even registered.

Florrie said, “Honestly, Sherman isn’t really Aurora’s fiancé. Their parents joked about it when they were kids, but neither of them ever took it seriously. They grew up together, more like childhood friends than anything else. This so-called ‘engagement’—it means nothing to either of them. Besides, Sherman isn’t in Aurora’s league, not by a long shot. Even Sherman’s uncle is far more impressive than Sherman himself.”

That caught Stella’s attention. She soon learned that Sherman’s uncle was likely to become the next head of the Burton family, and rumor had it he was interested in Aurora as well. Sherman, knowing he didn’t stand a chance, just watched over Aurora quietly from the sidelines.

Apparently, there was also someone in the Gardner family who liked Aurora, but Florrie wasn’t close to them—she’d only heard about it from a few friends in passing.

With so many brilliant young men drawn to Aurora, it was no wonder Skyler held her in such high regard.

Stella asked, “Is Aurora engaged now?”

Florrie shook her head. “Nope, not even dating anyone. Honestly, she doesn’t seem interested in men at all…”

Just as Florrie finished speaking, Aurora seemed to spot someone across the room. She walked over and greeted the person with a friendly smile.

Stella’s brows lifted slightly, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.

Haynes.

So Aurora and Haynes actually knew each other?

Florrie was aware that Stella had once been married, had a five-year-old child, and that her ex-husband was Haynes. But she’d never seen a picture of him.

The moment Florrie saw Haynes, she looked just as surprised.

“That’s him?”
