Chapter 258
Charlene and Helena were the first to head towards their car. Just as they were about to get in, Vesta stepped out from the vehicle.
"Turns out you haven't left yet," Helena remarked, glancing over briefly before turning her attention back to Charlene.
Charlene had assumed Helena hadn't noticed Vesta, but clearly, she had.
As Thorne made his way over to Vesta, Helena recalled how he'd been away from the hospital room for over half an hour earlier. "They seem to have quite the bond," she commented. Charlene finished fastening Helena's seatbelt and remained silent. She pressed the gas pedal, ready to drive off, when she caught sight of Terence dashing out of the hospital.
Spotting Vesta, Terence appeared both surprised and delighted. He hurried over in their direction.
Charlene took a quick glance and then focused back on the road, driving away.
"Hey, bro!" Terence exclaimed as he ran up, his eyes fixed on Vesta. "You're really CC! I thought I was seeing things!"
Vesta knew Thorne had a younger brother in high school, but they'd never met before. Hearing Terence's excitement, she realized this was indeed Thorne's brother.
Before she could respond, Terence continued eagerly, "CC, I'm such a fan! I even went to see your race in person recently. That overtake you did at three minutes and three seconds was insanely cool! I've rewatched that clip dozens of times and it never gets old-" He stopped talking when Thorne raised an eyebrow at him. Thorne hadn't actually interrupted, but something clicked for Terence. "Wait, bro, you know my idol?"
Thorne responded, "Problem with that?"
"No, no problem at all," Terence quickly replied.
Thorne was much older than him and had an extensive network, so it wasn't all that surprising he knew Vesta.
Thorne asked, "How'd you get down here so fast?"
Terence slapped his forehead. "Oh right, I forgot something upstairs. Almost slipped my mind."
Checking his watch, he exclaimed, "Oh shoot, it's this late already?"
He started running towards another car, calling out, "Bro, CC, I gotta go-"
He paused, seemingly remembering something, then dashed back, his face reddening slightly as he looked hopefully at Vesta. "Uh, CC, could I, um, add you on Instagram?" Before Vesta could reply, he hurriedly added, "I promise I won't bug you, I swear!"
Vesta chuckled. "Sure thing."
Overjoyed, Terence quickly pulled out his phone to add her.
In a rush, he thanked her and was about to leave when another thought struck him. "Could you, uh, sign something for me?"
"Sure, but you-" Vesta started to say, but Thorne interjected, "You go take care of what you need to. I'll make sure you get the autograph at the house later."
Relieved, Terence beamed, "Thanks, bro!" With that, he ran off happily.
Despite Thorne not usually meddling in his affairs, Terence thought he would disapprove of his fangirling. But Thorne agreed so quickly, probably because CC was his friend and he thought she was genuinely worth
