Chapter 21

Charlene had to bite her tongue to keep from laughing. Vesta met Thorne after Charlene and Thorne got hitched.

Vesta knew Charlene and Thorne's relationship. Charlene couldn't fathom that Henley, Vesta's dad, was in the dark about Thorne being his other daughter's hubby! There was no way he didn't know.
