Chapter 367

Vesta had the same thought.

But...

The whole thing started with them.

She always had a good image in Thorne's mind. If Thorne found out about this mess, would he think that she and her family were bullying Charlene? That could really tarnish the way he saw her.

Maureen understood Vesta's concerns perfectly.

No one understood the importance of maintaining a good image better than she

Katie was also well aware that the reason Thorne adored Vesta so much was because she was special and flawless in his eyes.

If this incident reached Thorne, it might indeed affect how he viewed Vesta. Even if they handled it well, it certainly wasn't a positive turn of events for Vesta. She glanced at Leah, speaking in a calm voice, "Leah, you're not a kid anymore. You really need to be careful with what you say and do from now on."

Handled poorly, this could be disastrous for their family!
