Chapter 34

So, when Vesta had her birthday, Thome had Granger and the gang throw her a celebration. And for Vesta's race, they all came to cheer

her on.

People were saying that Vesta had really clicked with Granger's group. They had become so close that if Thorne wasn't around, it still wasn't a full get-together without Vesta. She had become like family to them.

Perhaps because of this, over the past few years, Granger and his friends started to give her the cold shoulder. Back then, Charlene had tried to get on good terms with Granger and the guys, but they wouldn't give her the time of day. No chance whatsoever. They were outright cold to her. Charlene had her pride, too. Since they had made their stance clear, she didn't push it. But she'd still greet them politely if needed whenever they crossed paths.

Yet, more often than not, she'd be met with their indifference or even scorn. This time, Charlene decided she wouldn't even bother speaking. She brushed past them, ready to leave.

But then Granger said, "Ms. Ross, you have an interest in racing?"

His tone was chilly.
