Just then, Vesta seemed to have a lightbulb moment. "Isn''t Granger''spany hiring right now? I''m sure they have a position that would suit her. I''ll give Granger a callter." Thorne chuckled at the suggestion. "Sounds good."


    Jta was well aware of who Granger was. She''d heard that he and Thorne were childhood buddies, and he was quite fond of Vesta. Whenever Vesta needed help, Granger was usually there to lend a hand.


    Upon hearing this, Jta was about to express her reluctance to rely on others, but Laverne quickly interjected with gratitude, saying, "Thanks, Vesta. We really appreciate it." Vesta nodded and said, "Happy to help."


    With that, Thorne and Vesta moved on to other topics, their conversation flowing smoothly as if they had a never-ending list of things to discuss. Their chemistry was undeniable.


    Watching them, Jta couldn''t help but think of Charlene, who was out shopping alone. She whispered to Leah, "So... when are they nning to finalize the divorce?"


    Leah took a moment to realize Jta was referring to Charlene and Thorne. She smirked and replied, "My brother-inw said it''s soon, but the property division is a bit tricky. He doesn''t want her using it as an excuse to interfereter, so they''re settling everything before it''s official."


    Jta felt a bit of relief knowing Charlene would at least get some of the assets. She''d heard Thorne had a strong dislike for Charlene and feared he might leave her with nothing.


    Talking about the division of assets seemed to sour Leah''s mood. Before Jta could say anything, Leah huffed, "If my brother-inw wasn''t worried about her causing trouble with Grandma, he wouldn''t give her a dime!"


    Jta nodded slowly, "Oh."


    She paused, then asked, "Will she get a significant portion?"


    Leah scoffed, "Depends on how you see it. It''s not much in the grand scheme, but just enough to keep up appearances. It''s more than she deserves, really."


    Jta understood. Given Thorne''s wealth, if Leah was upset about it, Charlene was likely walking away with more than just peanuts.


    Realizing this, she felt more at ease.


    Truth be told, from Leah''s perspective, what Charlene was getting was indeed a drop in the oceanpared to Thorne''s fortune. It was about as much as Thorne had spent on Leah''s sister over the years.


    But still, in their eyes, it was a considerable sum. Money that should have stayed within the family was going to Charlene, and Leah wasn''t happy about it.


    Leah then circled back to the conversation about Jta possibly working at Granger Enterprises. She shot Jta a pointed look. "Once you start working there, keep an eye on Granger for me, will you? Make sure no other women get too close."


    Jta had heard from Laverne that Leah had a thing for Thorne''s friend. He was quite a catch in the Starfall social scene, ticking all the right boxes. But it seemed the feeling wasn''t mutual.


    Feeling uncertain about how to reply, Jta said, "Well, it''s not a done deal yet. I might not evennd the job at The Harden Group."

    Leah smirked, "Oh, you don''t know. As long as my sister puts in a word, Granger will definitely agree."


    Jta simply replied, "Oh."


    Thorne had business to attend to and was preparing to leave. The Hawkins and Spencer families held him in Chapter 320


    high regard and saw him off together.

    Laverne, keen on helping Jta establish herself in Starfall, brought up the topic with Vesta again.once Thorne had left.


    Seeing an opportune moment, Vesta picked up her phone to call Granger. But despite several attempts, the call went unanswered.
