The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 191

Haynes looked at her, "Why didn't you ever mention it?"

"Did you ever ask?" Stella gave a slight smile. "After our child was born, I said I wanted to work. You insisted it wasn't safe to leave the baby with someone else, and I should stay home to care for them."
