Chapter 30

She never shied away from a task and didn't give a damn about what the other children thought. She suddenly found it difficult to let go of Charlene, clinging to her without wanting to let go. "Mommy..." Charlene returned the embrace. "Yeah?" "What's up?" "I was thinking..." She had missed eating a dinner prepared by Charlene for a long time. She was ready to say anything when she realized she was going to Vesta's game that night. She hesitated for a moment before releasing Charlene. "It's nothing," but Vesta's games were less frequent, so she decided to go to hers without much hesitation. "Okay, then you better head in. Don't keep your teacher waiting."

"Okay." Jasmine finally let go, but not before turning to face the classroom. "Call me during lunch, okay, Mom?" Charlene promised, "Of course." Feeling reassured, Jasmine walked confidently into her classroom. Charlene watched Jasmine confidently introduce herself on stage and take her seat before waving good-bye and leaving to work at the Henderson Group. When she got there, Josh had brought someone to her desk instead of Thorne. "This is Sunny Fields," Josh said. She will replace you in your role. Sunny looked stunning, wearing everything from luxury labels. Sunny's stare carried a trace of inspection, but she didn't display it once she had examined Charlene and felt her clean and attractive aura. Rather, she held out a kind hand and said, "Hello, my name is Sunny.

For the next few days, I'll be following you around. Charlene shook her hand and said, "Please, I could use all the help." "No worries at all." This June, I received my degree from Starlight University. I recently completed my master's degree. How about you? Where did you receive your degree? It's just this year that she graduated," Charlene mused, "you—" Sunny most likely lacks the job experience necessary to fill my position. That was only an assumption, though. Maybe Sunny had a special talent. Despite the fact that many of the employees lack a master's degree, Charlene rose to the position of team leader.

Keeping this in mind, Charlene discreetly stopped Sunny, "Ms. Fields, we have a meeting coming up shortly." For now, let's limit our conversation to work-related subjects. Sunny said, "Look at me," with a flirty "Oops." The true deal nearly slipped my mind. First, let's discuss business. "Is it true that Mr. Henderson is super handsome?" Sunny said in a hushed tone as they drove to the meeting. Charlene said, "Yeah." Sunny seemed ecstatic. "I'm even more eager to see him after hearing you say that. Unfortunately, Josh stated that he would not be in the office today.

Thorne wouldn't be in, but Charlene didn't know. It was a reality that Thorne didn't visit the Henderson Group every day due to his numerous personal endeavors. Sunny had dragged Charlene to the cafeteria by noon. "Calling your boyfriend?" Sunny taunted Charlene as she pulled out her phone to contact Jasmine after they had finished their meals. "No, calling my daughter." "Your daughter? You're married?" "Yeah.

"Jasmine and Vesta were having a video conference on the other end, and Thorne was also present. According to Jasmine's pout, "You guys are mean, having lunch together without me." "Well, Minnie, you had school, right? "What about this? After school, I'll come collect you, and we'll all eat supper together. "Deal?" After replying, "That's more like it," Jasmine turned to look at Thorne. 07:33. "What would you like to eat tonight?" Thorne asked Vesta after using his fork to give her some meal. I'll prepare them ahead of time for you."
