เข้าสู่ระบบDespite Thorne Henderson's chilly demeanor after seven years of marriage, Charlene Ross always smiled at him, demonstrating her great love and belief that she would one day win his heart. Rather, she discovered him completely enamored and very protective of another woman, but she persisted in tenaciously preserving their marriage. Charlene was left alone in an empty room on her birthday after he took their child to be with the other lady after she had flown abroad to find him and their daughter. At last, she quit up at that point. As she watched her raised daughter refer to another woman as "mom," Charlene's sorrow subsided.
ดูเพิ่มเติมCharlene Ross arrived at Goldland Airport after nine o'clock in the evening. Her birthday was that day. Her phone exploded with birthday greetings as soon as she turned it on. They were all from friends and coworkers. However, Thorne Henderson said nothing. Charlene's grin dimmed a bit. It was already past ten when she arrived at the villa. When Latonia, the housekeeper, saw her, she was taken aback. "Mrs. Ross, what... what brings you here?" ""Where are Minnie and Thorne?" Miss Minnie is up in her room playing, and Mr. Henderson hasn't returned home yet.
Charlene went upstairs and gave Latonia her luggage. She discovered her daughter curled up in her pajamas, completely engrossed in whatever she was doing at her small table, and too preoccupied to see her mother entering. "Minnie?" "Mommy!" said Jasmine Henderson, beaming as she glanced up. Then she immediately returned to her task. Charlene embraced her, but she was gently pushed away. "Mommy, I'm busy now." Charlene hadn't seen Jasmine in two months, and a hug didn't seem like enough.
She couldn't wait to see her again. Charlene didn't want to depress her since she could see how focused she was. "Are you making a seashell necklace, Minnie?" ""Yeah!" Jasmine became alert. "Next week is Ms. Hawkins' birthday. These shells were chosen by Dad and me, and we polished them ourselves. Don't they look lovely? A knot formed in Charlene's throat, but before she could say anything more, Jasmine enthusiastically added, "Dad also ordered some other things for Ms. Hawkins.
Tomorrow—" Charlene couldn't contain the sharp pain in her chest. "Minnie... do you know what today is?" "What, huh?" After taking a quick look up, Jasmine made her necklace once more and said, "Mom, please, I mixed up the order of the beads now." It's Charlene; Seeing Jasmine not even bothering to look up, she left the room without a word. Latonia noticed her upset expression.
"Earlier, Mrs. Henderson, I gave Mr. Henderson a call. "I understand," he responded, adding, "I'm tied up tonight and asked you to rest." Recalling what Jasmine had said, Charlene called Thorne. He took a long time to respond, his voice aloof. "I'm still occupied. Let's discuss tomorrow. "Who's that late, Thorne?" In the background came the voice of Vesta Hawkins. Charlene's hold on the phone becomes unimportant; Thorne had hung up before Charlene could say anything. Months have passed since their last encounter.
Although Charlene had been to Goldland, he was unable to return home or even remain on the phone long enough to have a meaningful conversation. She had been used to the frigid, irritable, and distant nature of their marriage, which had always existed. Normally, she would have calmly called him back to find out where he was and to ask if he might come home. But maybe she was too tired to find the energy to do it. After some consideration, she called Thorne again the next morning. In Goldland, it was still her birthday because of the time difference between Goldland and her native country.
She arrived wanting to see Thorne and Jasmine, hoping they could eat together as a family on this wonderful day. That was her annual birthday desire. Thorne did not answer. He sent a message a long time after. [How are you?] Charlene: Want to grab lunch? Would you be able to bring Minnie? The three of us alone.] Thorne: [All right, tell me the location.] Thorne fell mute in silence.
Tears filled her eyes, and she briefly lost consciousness. But before she could finish inquiring about his health, Thorne unexpectedly took his cigarette away, gently wiped a tear from her cheek, and said, "Get some rest early." She quickly snapped back to reality, blurting out, "Thank you, so you—" Watching his leaving form, Charlene was shocked and temporarily at a loss for words.* She wasn't sure what to do next by the time she collected her thoughts. When Thorne advised her to go to bed early, did he intend for her to stay the night? They weren't legally divorced, so staying the night wasn't out of the question even if she had moved out. However, remaining in the master bedroom... Perhaps not. She collected her possessions, including a change of clothes and some everyday needs, and went to Jasmine Henderson's room after calming herself with that thinking.She stayed in Jasmine's room that evening. She awoke shortly before seven the following day. Jasmine joined Charlene after she
Fantastic! Jasmine's mood clearly improved as she skipped upstairs. When Charlene emerged from the master bedroom after shutting down her laptop and organizing her belongings, Jasmine threw herself into her arms and exclaimed, "Mommy!" "Uh-huh," Charlene said, caressing her daughter's hair but without giving her a hug in return. Jasmine joyfully chattered away, unaware of her mother's lack of affection. Thorne went upstairs at that moment. His eyes briefly met Charlene's as she drew his attention. Charlene's look was just as controlled as Thorne's. "How about Mrs. Thompson giving you a bath tonight?" she said, turning to face Jasmine. Mommy needs to talk to Daddy about something. "When Thorne heard this, he stopped in his tracks. Jasmine was in a good mood after having a great time the previous two days. She went off to have Mrs.Thompson assists her with her bath, despite her minor reluctance. "Shall we talk in the room?" Charlene suggested as she saw Thorne playing with his phone wh
Charlene was not at all shocked to see that Vesta had picked up the phone. She and Thorne were almost inseparable, after all. What if she picked up Thorne's phone? Charlene said calmly, "I'm looking for Thorne." "He's taking a shower," Vesta said icily, identifying Charlene's voice on the other end. You can let me know if you need anything. "Tell her?" Yes, she was concerned about the issue. Henley may have bought the mansion, but Vesta's uncle saw her aunt in the area today. He probably bought the mansion as a favor to Vesta's grandmother, who is now his mother-in-law. Would Charlene prevent her grandma and uncle from moving into that house if she actually told Vesta? She wouldn't, of course. Furthermore, Charlene was shocked that Vesta was ignorant about her uncle's family's intention to relocate across from their estate.Telling Vesta would therefore be useless and might even backfire. Charlene hung up the phone without saying anything. Over an hour went by, and Thorne still hadn't
Granger remained silent, giving Moran the impression that he thought it was premature to talk. Knowing that it would be pointless to press Granger, Moran turned to grin at Daisy and knelt at her level. How many times have you seen Daisy, the woman you had lunch with? Can you recall her name? Granger's hold on his cup tightened abruptly. "Moran!" "Three times!" was Daisy's direct response when questioned about Charlene, unaware of the adults' nuanced ideas and unfamiliar with Moran. "The lady's name..." Daisy couldn't exactly remember Charlene's name, and Granger hadn't even called her "Ms. Ross" when they first met earlier that day. She turned to Granger for assistance. Granger looked down and said, "Uncle, what's the lady's name?" "Next time you see her, you can ask her yourself." Daisy gave a joyful nod. "All right. Moran said to himself, "Stingy." Granger disregarded him.Daisy hesitantly gave Jasmine a crystal keychain after noticing how content she was with it. Jasmine was happy.
