The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1447

Stella understood Joshua's implication. "You're saying Sellers will approach the Camerons to help Aurora?"

Joshua nodded slightly. "Given Aurora's position, she can't possibly have any direct dealings with the Camerons. To climb the ladder, she doesn't have many people she can use or undermine. She grew up with Jonathan and his brothers, so they wouldn't be her first choice. Besides them, there's you—a ready-made target. You hold founder's shares, and you're already in opposition to them. She has a million reasons to convince herself to move against you. However, there’s still the matter of family ties, so she can’t act without a plausible reason. Using the Camerons is the perfect solution."

Joshua gazed out the window, his eyes distant.

"As for Sellers, helping Aurora isn't just about his feelings for her. It's because if Aurora succeeds in taking power, it's a win-win situation for him. Marrying Aurora would mean marrying the head of the Williams family. Even if they don't end up together, she would owe him a significant debt, making their relationship closer than any other."

"My mother never spoke about my grandparents or her side of the family," Stella said. "I imagine her time with the Camerons wasn't happy."

"In wealthy families, those who are too sentimental get eaten alive," Joshua remarked. "When the dust settles, the ones left standing are never ordinary people."

Stella thought of how her mother had given so much for Skyler and his sons, only to be forced into exile with no one to remember her kindness.

"Don't worry, Joshua," Stella said firmly. "I won't let my emotions get the better of me."

"I'll go with you this weekend," Joshua said.

"Okay."
