She wondered if Thorne had already heard the news about her family's lawsuit.
Vesta stared at his number on her phone for a long moment before finally hitting dial.
Still no answer.
The rest of the Hawkins and Spencer families fell silent, watching her with desperate, hopeful eyes.
When he didn't pick up, Leah's eyes welled with fresh tears. "Still nothing? What the hell is he playing at?"
Everyone else in the room was thinking the exact same thing.
But now wasn't the time to point fingers.
Maureen's expression was icy. "Leah, stop bothering your cousin."
Leah wiped away her tears. "I'm sorry, Aunt Maureen. I... I'm just so scared."
If Thorne really abandoned them, both of their families would lose everything.
She had grown up in the lap of luxury; the thought of bankruptcy and drowning in debt was something she simply couldn't stomach.
And Leah wasn't the only one terrified—panic hung heavy in the air.
Vesta didn't say a word. She took her phone upstairs and sent Thorne another text: *The verdict is out. My dad decided to appeal. Do you have any thoughts on this?*
Minutes ticked by, but the message remained unanswered.
She scrolled up, her screen a wall of green texts she had sent him. He hadn't replied to a single one...
...
The verdict between The Hawkins Group and Axiom Flux Technologies sent shockwaves through the industry.
However, since PrimeStar Technologies had finalized their partnership with The Croft Corporation, Stewart and Charlene simply didn't have the time to care about the legal drama.
