NovelEnglishChapter 75 Charlene would upset Thif she dared to make a scene. Given her understanding of Charlene and Thorne's marital dynamics, Charlene wouldn't dare upset Thorne. After all, getting on Thorne's bad side again would make him despise her more.
Hearing that, Laverne felt somewhat relieved. But she was worried that Charlene couldn't handle the jealousy if Thorne were too good to Vesta.
Regardless of what they thought, Charlene didn't pay special attention to their situation because the person *sitting beside her was Professor Hancock.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtProfessor Hancock knew Charlene was at the expo and had made a point to greet her earlier.
They had a great chat at a party last time, and he had been looking for a chance to talk to Charlene since then, but they had been too busy.
Since they ran into each other, he didn't want to miss the chance. So, shortly after sitting down, he started a Conversation with Charlene.
The table was large, and Charlene and Professor Hancock didn't want to disturb anyone else, so they kept their voices down.
Seeing Professor Hancock speaking amiably non-stop to Charlene over there, Vesta and Laverne assumed Charlene was consulting with him on professional matters and didn't pay much attention.
The person sitting on the other side of Professor Hancock joked, "Hank, you can't shake off your professional habits. You've been talking all day, and even now, at the dinner table, you can't stop." Another person laughed and added, "Right? Earlier in the exhibition hall, Hank and Ms. Hawkins had chatted for a while." When the conversation turned to him, Professor Hancock smiled and didn't indulge them, saying, “When I try to discuss technical stuff with you guys, you always sendoff to your engineers. What, now you're not used tonot talking to you?" Someone glanced at Vesta and then at Charlene, saying, "Who would've thought today's young ladies are so interested in Al, coding, and the like? Times have changed." "Indeed," another person joined in. "After Hank talked to Ms. Hawkins at the exhibition, he toldthere are more promising talents nowadays, saying our country's future is bright." "Ms. Hawkins is a top talent from a world-renowned university, a promising figure." Hearing the compliments, Vesta humbly smiled. “I'm flattered." Being a man of high status, Thorne made Vesta, as his woman, more favored by everyone.
As for Charlene, everyone knew she was beautiful but heard she was only an employee at Stewart's corporation. Despite her ambiguous relationship with Stewart, she had no other backing, so they didn't pay her much attention.
When the food was on, Vesta served Thorne a slice of steak, and he naturally accepted it.
