Chapter 334

Chapter 334 After Irma’s birthday, news quickly spread through the elite circles of Starfall that Thorne was married and had a six–year–old daughter.

Vesta had no shortage of admirers.

Even when it was known she was with Thorne, many men just couldn’t give up hope.

When they learned that Thorne was indeed married and had a daughter, Vesta’s secret admirers were heartbroken for her, feeling she deserved better.

The morning after Irma’s birthday, quite a few of them showed up at Neural Nexus Tech, trying to convince Vesta to leave Thorne.

Edwin and the others stepped in to help, eventually “rescuing” Vesta from the situation.

Word of this quickly spread throughout Neural Nexus Tech.

An employee couldn’t help but comment, “We all knew Director Hawkins was popular since Valentine’s Day, but who would’ve thought it was this crazy?”

“No kidding.”

Everyone at Neural Nexus Tech knew that Thorne and Vesta had a strong relationship.

But the fact that Thorne had been married and had a child was news to them.

Someone couldn’t help but gossip, “Director Hawkins, Mr. Henderson... did he really get married and have a daughter?”

Vesta laughed, “Yes, he did.”

Seeing Vesta so unfazed, someone asked, “And you’re okay with that?”

Vesta smiled, “We get along really well. Minnie is very close to me, and we have a great relationship.”

Since it was work hours, the gossip soon died down.

Around 5 PM, Vesta was still busy when Jasmine came bounding over, “Ms. Hawkins!”

Vesta scooped her up with a smile, “Little Minnie, you’re here!”

Jasmine nodded, “Yeah!”

“I still have a bit of work to finish. Can you sit tight for ten minutes, and then we’ll head over to The Henderson Group to see your dad?”

Jasmine obediently agreed, “Okay!”

When Jasmine first ran into the room, the employees were all curious to know whose child she could be. But as they watched how she talked to Vesta, they quickly figured it out.

Besides, Jasmine did bear a striking resemblance to Thorne.

Earlier in the day, when Vesta mentioned she got along well with Thorne’s daughter, Jasmine, not everyone believed her. But seeing how happy Jasmine was to see Vesta, it was undeniable.

It’s often said that being a stepmom is tough.

Though Thorne and Vesta weren’t married yet, it seemed only a matter of time.

Someone couldn’t help but admire, “Director Hawkins, even kids are charmed by you. That’s impressive!”

Vesta chuckled, “It’s not as dramatic as you make it sound. Minnie has a wonderful personality, and our good relationship is a joint effort. It’s not all me.”

1/2 15.05 Chapter 334 Looking at Jasmine, someone commented, “Mr. Henderson’s daughter is really beautiful. She’s going to grow up to be a stunner.”

“Absolutely.”

As they watched Jasmine, some employees couldn’t shake the feeling that they’d seen her somewhere before, aside from her resemblance to Thorne.

They also wondered what kind of woman could have been with Thorne to have such a lovely child as Jasmine...

Curiosity aside, they knew better than to pry, About twenty minutes later, Vesta finished her work and said to Jasmine, “Minnie, Auntie’s ready. Let’s go find your dad.”

Jasmine slung her backpack over her shoulder, happily taking Vesta’s hand, “Okay!”

Vesta gently reminded her, “Minnie, say goodbye to everyone.”

Jasmine waved, “Goodbye, everyone!”

Her sweet demeanor won everyone over, and they quickly responded, “Goodbye, come visit us again!”

Jasmine chirped, “I will!”

As they watched them leave, Edwin remarked, “Seeing how Mr. Henderson sent his daughter over to support Director Hawkins, it’s clear he’s serious about dispelling any doubts about their relationship. Mr. Henderson really cares about Director Hawkins.”

“Indeed, Director Hawkins is quite lucky.”
