Zane Thorne's phone call silenced everyone in the room, making them unconsciously lower their voices.
It would take Genevieve Joyce ten minutes to arrive at the fastest speed, so Zane Thorne spent ten minutes on the phone keeping Natalie Vaughn company. Natalie Vaughn spent ten minutes being sweet, and the others spent ten minutes feeling envious.
It was a bit late, and Natalie had been drinking, so she wasn't very energetic. Noticing her drowsiness, Zane gently coaxed her to stay awake.
If she fell asleep, it would be up to Genevieve to carry her out, something Zane naturally wouldn't allow to happen.
Genevieve, having been by Zane's side for many years, knew his personality well. So before coming, she made sure to pick up Summer Churchill.
Initially, Zoe Chandler had to fly back to Astra City tonight for work, and Summer, being a junior assistant, couldn't participate in the dinner party.
