The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

"Ms. Cameron is Aurora's sister-how could I possibly lay a hand on her?"

Despite the explanation, both men from the Williams family looked far from reassured.

Skyler, especially, was seething inside.

Leonard's stunt was outrageous-he clearly didn't give a damn about them.

Aurora spoke up. "Leonard, you really crossed a line. Apologize to Star."

Leonard might've ignored anyone else, but not Aurora. He couldn't just brush her off.

He turned to Stella. "Ms. Cameron, I'm sorry for scaring you just now. I was only joking around, that's all."

Before Stella could reply, Jonathan cut in coldly, "Leonard, this is a family matter. The Williamses can handle their own affairs without interference from outsiders like you."

He paused, then added, "You've seen Aurora. It's time for you to go."

Leonard's sudden appearance had already caught both Skyler and Jonathan off guard. Now that he was here, they couldn't exactly throw him out, but no one expected him to pull a gun.

Aurora, sensing the tension, chimed in as well. "Leonard, you should head back. My father and brother need to talk to Star."

Leonard didn't argue. "Alright, I'll go. If anything comes up, just call me."
