The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1477

It was an odd question. Manager Crawford looked confused for a moment. "Okay from what?"

"I heard you and Joshua were in a car accident," Stella explained. "And that it was serious, with casualties."

Manager Crawford's expression cleared. He gave a short, relieved laugh. "Oh, that! Yeah, there was a pile-up. It was incredibly close. But Joshua's reflexes saved us. He saw what was happening, swerved, and we slammed through the guardrail. Totaled the car, but we walked away from it with barely a scratch."

Recalling the scene, a look of lingering fear crossed his face. "Thank God Joshua was there. If he hadn't been, I don't think I would've made it out alive."

Stella asked, "Where is Joshua? How badly is he hurt?"

"He's still upstairs," Manager Crawford replied. "His injuries are a bit worse than mine, but nothing life-threatening."

Arriving at Joshua's room, Stella knocked softly. From inside, a familiar, clear male voice answered, "Come in."

When he saw Stella, his eyes narrowed slightly. "Star, what are you doing here?"

"I heard about the accident," she said. "I came to check on you."

"It's just a few scrapes. Nothing serious."

Stella's gaze fell on the thick white gauze wrapped around his arm. "Joshua, how are you really? Does it hurt?"
