The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 418

Who would ever respect a woman who tried to seduce her own sister's fiancé?

Skyler always felt guilty toward Aurora, and as a result, he gave her a bigger share of the company.

Sherman's friends liked to gossip. "She grew up out in the sticks-just a country bumpkin. Wouldn't it be easy to throw some random guy at her and have him seduce her? Why would Mr. Burton bother to get involved himself?"

Sherman lounged back in his chair, looking bored. "You think I haven't tried? I hired a few really good-looking guys-real charmers, the kind who know how to sweep a girl off her feet. I even gave them fancy cars and expensive watches to look the part, but that Stella didn't spare them a glance.

Those guys hung around her for over a week and couldn't even get her phone number.

In the end, she got so annoyed she called the police, and the whole Williams family was alarmed.

There was nothing more I could do. But whatever happens, the Williams family can't find out about this."

One of his buddies snorted. "She may have grown up in the country, but she sure has taste."

Another friend chimed in, "Mr. Burton, aren't you worried that messing around with that country girl will ruin your chances with Miss Aurora?"

Sherman was silent for a few seconds. When he finally spoke, his voice had lost its usual careless arrogance.

"As long as Aurora is happy, it doesn't matter if we end up together or not."

That was more than Antoney could take.

He suddenly lunged forward, tackling Sherman to the ground. The two of them wrestled, fists flying.
