The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

The Williams Group was a business empire of such staggering scale that trying to buy it out at a bargain was nearly impossible.

Besides, Stella was a part of the Williams Group herself. Any trouble for the company would only hurt her as well.

The Williams Group couldn't be touched, but the companies under Israel's control were a different story. Those were fair game.

Though the three Williams brothers all worked for the family group, each of them managed several large companies of their own. It allowed them to diversify, spreading out risk for the family. Officially, though, these businesses were their private ventures. Their profits and losses didn't show up on the Williams Group's books.

Now, Stella and Aurora were in the same boat. The companies they managed would be their own private assets, just like the brothers. Whether those companies thrived and made it to the stock market, or crashed and burned, would depend entirely on their own abilities.

The Williams brothers were so well-known in the business world precisely because the companies they ran had all gone public and grown to impressive sizes. It proved they were more than just trust fund kids living off the family fortune.

"Joshua, do you have a plan?"

He nodded. "I do, but first we need to figure out exactly what went wrong with the Richards Group. Only then can we fix it properly."
