Upon receiving the news, he remained composed and said, "Alright, got it." On the other end, they asked, "Would you like us to hold onto these items for you?" Thorne replied, "No need." They didn't press further and quickly hung up the phone.
Sitting next to him, enjoying their meal, Vesta asked, "Something up at the office?" Thorne slipped his phone back into his pocket and said, "No, just a call from the auction house." Vesta was just about to chuckle and say something when Jasmine piped up, "What's an auction house?" Thorne, holding his knife and fork, cut into a piece of steak and said, "It's where they auction off treasures." "Treasure? What kind of treasures? Is it fun?" Vesta laughed, "Oh, it's quite interesting. Haven't you been to one, Minnie?" Jasmine shook her head, "Nope." She asked again, "Are there lots of treasures there?" Thorne nodded, "Yes." "Then I want to check out an auction house too!" Vesta said, "But the things there might not be what you like." "Oh..." Hearing this, Jasmine lost interest.

After watching for a bit, Jasmine found the idea of bidding fascinating and immediately got excited. She turned to her dad and said, "I want to try it, Dad. Will you take me?" "Sure, next twe'll go, and you can bid on anything you like." "Yay!" Vesta smiled and let the conversation flow.
The next day, Dalton arrived early at Neural Nexus Tech.
When he got there, both Vesta and Thorne were already in. Seeing Vesta, Dalton paused, "Ms. Hawkins, you're here too?" "Yes, I'm still handling the project I led before." Dalton smiled, "I see." He had thought that after her family took on the new project from The Henderson Group, she'd be back helping out with her family's business.
Thorne chimed in, "Mr. Ramirez, please have a seat." 09:40 Chapter Dalton glanced at Thorne and remembered seeing him with his arms around Charlene at the restaurant the other day. He paused briefly before taking a seat.
Putting personal matters aside, he focused on discussing work with Thorne.
Vesta listened for a while, but, as she had other things to attend to, she excused herself.
However, she returned over an hour later to take a break and enjoy scoffee brewed by Thorne's secretary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThorne and Dalton were still deep in conversation when Thorne received another call.
Excusing himself with a nod to Dalton, Thorne left to take the call.
Watching him leave, Dalton glanced at Vesta and was reminded of the ve scene with Thorne and Charlene.... "Mr. Ramirez, do you have something to say to me?" Dalton's hesitation was evident.
He shook his head, "Just noticing how well Mr. Henderson treats you." He hadn't fully grasped the situation from that day, and speaking out of turn seemed unwise.
Besides, whether it was Thorne reviving a stalled project at Neural Nexus Tech to help her grow, introducing her to valuablecontacts, e or even launching a new project at The Henderson Group for her... Thorne's kindness towards her was clear for all to see. Dalton recognized it well and wondered if he could ever be as generous and supportive if he were in Thorne's position.
