"Did you run into him again this morning?" Stewart asked, raising an eyebrow as he sipped his coffee.
Charlene sighed, replying, "Yeah."
Going through the divorce process while running into your ex-husband all the twas a real pain. But since
their companies had a partnership, occasional encounters were unavoidable.
After a busy couple of days back at the office, Charlene found herself tagged in a group message by Quincy on
Wednesday morning. Stewart was on a flight to another state, so when Quincy explained the issue, Charlene
packed up her things and headed out to Neural Nexus Tech with a team of tech specialists in tow.
This was the first tshe was visiting Neural Nexus Tech since Thorne had handed it over to Vesta. As they
pulled up to the building, Charlene noticed Dalton Ramirez getting out of his car too. He had an ongoing
collaboration with Neural Nexus Tech that hadn't changed with the change in leadership.
With the switch from Thorne to Vesta, Dalton's business discussions had a new face, but the business remained
the same. As they saw each other, both Charlene and Dalton quickly averted their eyes.
As Charlene, Dalton, and their crew walked into the Neural Nexus Tech building, they immediately spotted Vesta.
It appeared she was once again being pursued by a particularly persistent admirer, who was clutching an
extravagant bouquet of red roses.
Facing the entrance, Vesta noticed Charlene at the stime. This was the first tVesta had seen Charlene
since learning that Granger Harden had taken an interest in her. Her expression turned icy as soon as she laid
eyes on Charlene.
Dalton, noticing Vesta's discomfort with her suitor, stepped forward, "What's going on here?"
Charlene wasn't interested in their . She turned her attention back to her team and headed straight for the
elevators.

About three minutes later, as they were still waiting for the elevator, Vesta's voice drifted over, "Thanks for
stepping in."
"No problem," Dalton replied, concern etched on his face. "Isn't there building security? Why aren't they handling
this?"
Vesta sighed, "He bribed the security."
Dalton frowned, "So he can just keep doing this?"
"He won't," Vesta replied, her tone calm and assured. "I'll talk to Thorne about it later. He'll sort it out."
Dalton seemed to mull this over, his gaze dropping to the floor before he replied, "Good to hear."
By the tthe elevator arrived, Dalton and Vesta had caught up with Charlene and her team. Everyone filed
into the elevator together.
The employee's from PrimeStar, who frequently accompanied Charlene to Neural Nexus Tech for work, were well
aware of the change in
ownership. Recognizing Vestagnet
greeted her warmly, "Ms. Hawkins."
QUMS
Previously, when Vesta was the director of a project, she was known as Director Hawkins. Now, as the rightful
owner of Neural Nexus Tech, the title had changed to reflect her new position.
Vesta nodded in response, "I appreciate all your hard work on the project."
PrimeStar's tech team responded quickly, "It's our pleasure."

everyone, which made Charlenesgy
