Chapter 407

Charlene honestly couldn't care less about what Thorne thought of her, or how he looked at her.

After they left the diner, she and Stewart headed back to Henderson Technologies for another round of meetings.

This time, Maureen and Leah didn't tag along. But Vesta did.

When Stewart noticed Vesta trailing after them, he rolled his eyes and muttered, "Mr. Henderson, about Mr. Hawkins-"

Thorne seemed to know exactly where Stewart was going with this.

Before Stewart could finish, Thorne cut him off, "If you're worried about a possible leak, Mr. Ferguson, you don't need to. If anything like that happens, I'll take full responsibility."

Stewart had expected that answer. Thorne had said the same thing when they first partnered up with Neural Nexus Tech.

Still, even though Stewart knew what was coming, he needed to hear it. He forced a stiff smile and said, "If that's your word, Mr. Henderson, then I suppose I can rest easy."

Earlier that morning, Thorne had sat alone at the head of the conference table. Now, with Vesta there, he had someone bring in an extra chair for her right by his side.
