The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 665

Stella noticed Keen sitting beside Aurora, laughing as he chatted with her.

As Stella’s thoughts drifted, a bright, delicate voice chimed in right next to her.

The voice was full of excitement and surprise. “Haynie, Keen! You came to watch me compete?”

Before Stella could respond, a flash of white darted past her.

Rachel flung her arms around Keen. “Keen, it’s been ages since I saw you and Rachel. Did you miss me?”

Keen had been busy talking to Aurora about ice skating and hadn’t even noticed Rachel’s arrival.

Caught off guard by Rachel’s enthusiastic hug, he stared at her in surprise.

“Rachel, when did you get here?”

The preliminary round was organized by groups, and they had all come to support Stella’s event, never noticing which group Rachel was in.

Rachel didn’t seem to care, simply grinning. “I just finished my round and spotted you and your dad right away.”

Her voice was light and cheerful. “Keen, how about I treat you to some ice cream after? My treat!”

Kids always struggled to resist sweets and cold treats.

And the less often they had them, the more they craved them.

Sure enough, Keen swallowed instinctively.

He was about to say yes when Aurora spoke up first.

“Ms. Pearce, Keen is lactose intolerant. Most of the milkshakes and ice cream at those places aren’t suitable for him.”

Rachel’s smile faltered as she finally seemed to notice Aurora.

She managed an awkward little laugh. “Don’t worry, Ms. Williams. I’ll be careful not to pick anything Keen’s allergic to…”

Before she could finish, Aurora interrupted coolly.

“Ms. Pearce, Keen has a sensitive stomach. Too many cold treats will upset his digestion and aren’t good for his health.”

She then turned to Haynes.
