The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1463

At that moment, many of the heiresses and socialites in the room looked at Stella with envy.

One whispered to her friend, "Even though Stella was gone for so many years, she's come back as the absolute family darling! She got ten percent of the Williams shares, she has her mother's original stock, and now the Camerons are giving her ten percent too. I don't think any other heiress in our circle has that kind of treatment, right?"

"And look at Aurora. She seems so glamorous, growing up in the Williams family, but she never even worked at The Williams Group. It wasn't until Stella came back that she managed to ride her coattails into a position there. It seems the Williams family doesn't really value Aurora that much."

"Let's be honest, Aurora is the Williamses' ultimate pawn. They groomed her to be flawless and accomplished, but she's just a political asset for a powerful marriage. If they weren't afraid of looking biased, she wouldn't even have that job at The Williams Group."

"When you put it that way, Aurora's situation is actually quite pitiful. Stella returns and is instantly the favorite, while Aurora just gets her leftovers."

The murmurs in the crowd were a mix of envy and jealousy. What Stella now possessed was comparable to what Jonathan, the future heir, had.

Hearing her name, Stella's eyelid twitched involuntarily. The sudden announcement brought her no joy, only a sense of foreboding.

Noticing her hesitation, Joshua leaned in. "Star, what is it?"

"I don't know," she whispered back. "The Camerons never mentioned this to me beforehand."

Joshua's dark eyes narrowed.

The Williams family was clearly in the dark as well. Jonathan, seeing her standing still, prompted her, "Star, what are you waiting for? Go on up and thank your grandmother."

He didn't think much of the Cameron shares, but for a self-serving family like them to willingly give them to Stella, it showed they had some genuine feelings for her.
