Chapter 196
Well, Dad always said that if she wanted to call, she should just call. Mom would answer one of these days.
So, whenever she needed her mom, even knowing the call might go unanswered, she dialed her number right away, following her heart.
She casually put down the phone, eyeing Thorne as he slipped into his suit, lounging on the master bed, legs kicking in the air. “Dad, you’re off to pick up Ms. Hawkins already?”
Thorne nodded, “Yeah.”
“Make sure you guys come back early tomorrow, take me out for some fun.”
“Sure thing.”
Thorne got dressed and was out of the house in less than fifteen minutes.
By eight o’clock, he and Vesta made their grand entrance at the banquet hall.
Vesta, in her stunning ensemble, was a sight to behold, drawing every gaze in the room.
Granger and Moran had already arrived, making their way over as soon as they noticed Thorne and Vesta.
Dalton and York had just arrived, their attention quickly caught by the couple.
Dalton’s eyes lit up with admiration upon seeing Vesta.
York, spotting Thorne and Vesta, asked Kelvin, “That’s Vesta?”
Kelvin nodded, “Yeah, gorgeous and charismatic, right?”
But no matter how stunning or charismatic, she was someone else’s girl.
York glanced over briefly, then looked away, offering no comment.
Thorne’s presence commanded attention. Soon, many guests were eagerly greeting him.
Before long, Thorne and Vesta were surrounded by people.
Stewart and Charlene arrived late.
PrimeStar, the talk of their circle recently, meant all eyes were on Stewart even more eagerly than before. At the same time, Charlene’s appearance in a hand–embroidered ivory gown left everyone in awe.
“It goes without saying, M
“Absolutely.”
Henderson and Mr. Ferguson are indeed lucky men.”
Whether it was Ms. Hawkins or Ms. Ross by Stewart’s side, each had their unique charm but were undeniably beautiful.
As soon as Charlene and Stewart entered the banquet hall, Granger, Moran, York, and Dalton quickly took
notice.
PrimeStar, being the spotlight company, had Stewart’s presence expected by everyone.
Granger wasn’t sure if Charlene would accompany Stewart, but seeing her there, arm in arm with him, his gaze deepened.
Moran had anticipated Charlene’s presence, yet he was taken aback by her dazzling beauty.
Even if he wasn’t fond of Charlene, he had to admit her clean, captivating elegance was truly unique.
