Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)

Chapter 260

Charlene nodded slightly, a soft "Yeah" escaping her lips.

Jasmine, realizing that Charlene might not know who Daisy was, quickly added, "Daisy's my friend, the one who calls Uncle Granger." "Yeah, Charlene replied again, her tone neutral. Seeing Jasmine's eagerness to share, she asked, "So, what did you guys do?"

"We went to a corn maze."

"Uh-huh."

Charlene listened quietly, showing little reaction, but Helena's face darkened.

Earlier, when Thorne had taken Jasmine back, Helena assumed he intended to spend quality time with her. Now she was finding out that he had been off on a date with Vesta instead. Not only was he not spending time with Jasmine, but he preferred to leave her with someone else rather than with Charlene.

Helena was visibly upset.

Jasmine, unaware of Helena's inner turmoil, continued, "Granger wanted me to stay for dinner, but I wanted to come back here for dinner, so I called you." Charlene replied, "Yeah."

In a gentle voice, she asked, "Did you remember to thank Granger?"

"Sure did," Jasmine replied cheerfully.

Charlene didn't probe further.

With her homework done and dinner finished, Jasmine stayed in the living room to hang out with Charlene and

Helena.

Helena, sitting beside Jasmine, asked, "Minnie, how about staying at my house for a little while longer?"

Before Charlene could respond, Jasmine exclaimed, "That sounds great!"

Helena added, "Now, Minnie, since you've agreed with me, you can't change your mind, okay? At least a week."

ay!"

Charlene frowned slightly.

Helena, pleased, patted Jasmine's hand affectionately.

As Jasmine lowered her head to play a game, Helena remarked to Charlene, "Kids brought up by you are different. No matter what, Minnie still sticks to you." Charlene just smiled.

Jasmine nudged Charlene, asking her to join in the game.

Charlene looked at her, "Are you sure about this?"

She suspected Jasmine might be all excited now but could change her mind in a couple of days, wanting to return to Thorne and Vesta.

Jasmine was momentarily confused.

After a couple of seconds, she understood Charlene's concern and said, "Of course, I already promised Great-grandma."

Charlene said nothing more.

Suddenly, Jasmine seemed to remember something and exclaimed, "Oh, I haven't told Dad yet! I should give.

him a call."

Thorne picked up the phone quickly.

After Jasmine explained, he replied, "I got it, sweetheart. If you need anything, just call, and I'll make sure it gets to you." "Okay," Jasmine said happily.

She hung up, content.

Helena had been worried that Thorne might object.

She even considered stopping Jasmine from making the call.

But reason told her not to interfere.

Seeing Jasmine's happiness after the call, Helena couldn't help asking, "Did your dad agree?"

Jasmine beamed, "Of course!"

Then, with a hint of confusion, she asked, "Why wouldn't Dad agree?"

Turning to Helena, Jasmine added, "Dad's really good to me. Whatever I want to do, he usually says yes."

Helena was momentarily speechless.

Charlene quietly observed, not interjecting.

As bedtime approached, Charlene took Jasmine's hand and led her upstairs for a bath.
