Chapter 324

Just as Janetta was lost in thought, Thorne arrived.

After Thorne made his rounds greeting the Hawkins and Spencer families, Vesta introduced him to Janetta, saying, “This is my cousin Janetta.”

Thorne glanced at Janetta, flashed a polite smile, and greeted, “Hello.”

Janetta had only seen Thorne in Vesta’s social media posts before. Now that she met him in person, she could see why Vesta was drawn to him.

Sure, there had been plenty of charming suitors vying for Vesta’s attention, all accomplished in their own right. But compared to Thorne… Whether it was personal achievements, education, family background, or even looks and demeanor, Thorne outshone them all by a mile.

Many of Vesta’s previous admirers were truly impressive, but now Janetta realized what it meant to meet someone truly exceptional.

And she had to admit, Thorne and Vesta looked perfect together.

However, recalling the rumors about Thorne and Charlene, Janetta lowered her gaze and muttered softly, “H–hi.” After Thorne finished his greetings with the Hawkins and Spencer families, he settled onto the couch.
