Chapter 85

Jasmine had requested Charlene drop her off at school the next day, and Charlene had granted her every request. They hadn't seen one another in ten days since their retreat at Sapphire Springs Resort. Charlene thus spent the night at the villa. master She did not, however, go back to the master bedroom. Rather, she intended to share a bed with Jasmine. Charlene and Jasmine last shared a bed when Jasmine became ill. Jasmine hadn't asked Charlene to remain with her, though, and she wasn't sick. Jasmine couldn't figure out why Charlene wouldn't go back to her and Dad's room after watching her get ready for bed in her room. However, Charlene was usually warm and had a pleasant scent, so Jasmine adored sleeping with her. When Jasmine hugged Charlene, she felt reassured and didn't question it.

But she had to use additional caution when bidding Vesta good night because Charlene was present. If Charlene found out, it would be awkward. Charlene didn't go to bed until after eleven that evening. However, Thorne was still away from home. She discovered that Thorne had not returned home at all the next morning. He was heading out with Vesta when she last saw him. He most likely stayed the night with Vesta, Charlene thought. When Charlene dropped Jasmine off at school and went to PrimeStar for work, she forced those thoughts out of her mind.

Most of the time, Jasmine seemed to be thinking about Vesta. She only occasionally contacted Charlene, mainly when they hadn't spoken in a long time or when she was bored while Thorne was out of town. Jasmine didn't appear to actually need Charlene around if it weren't for those moments. Following that day, Jasmine ceased phoning her every day and wondering why she didn't come home at night after learning that her foot had healed. Thorne, on the other hand, never gave her location much thought. A large team-building event was held on Friday as a result of PrimeStar securing two significant projects that generated significant revenue. After deliberation, they chose the venue for the occasion.

Eventually, a spa retreat was decided upon. Charlene couldn't help but smile wryly as she heard the news. "What's up?" inquired Stewart. It's not that you don't like the concept of a spa retreat. She recalled the time Thorne abandoned her at Sapphire Springs Resort while they were at the spa. Even though it had been nearly six months, it still seemed like yesterday. Time really does fly by. Despite her distaste for the spa, she accompanied everyone because it was the first significant team gathering she had attended since returning to the company. The Henderson family's private estate was the destination of the most recent Sapphire Springs Resort excursion.

Additionally, the business was traveling to a sizable spa resort with a variety of entertainment options. Charlene changed into a robe and headed to the spa pool. > They were a small group of women, and the others hadn't joined them when Charlene got there. Charlene saw a young child, not much older than Jasmine, reaching into the water near the poolside with curiosity as she settled in. The child appeared shorter than the four feet of water in the pool. Charlene began to stand up out of fear that she could fall in, but she heard a splash. The girl had tumbled into the swimming pool. M.

Charlene hurried to the girl's aid, pulled her out, and embraced her. The young girl's cheeks flushed as she clutched at her, coughing and sobbing. They went outside and saw Granger nearby while Charlene consoled the young child, patted her back, and asked for the details of her family while guiding her to a staff member. The young child in Charlene's arms cried and reached out to Granger before Charlene could respond, saying, "Uncle Granger...They went outside and saw Granger nearby while Charlene consoled the young child, patted her back, and asked for information about her family while guiding her to a staff member. "Uncle Granger..." the young girl in Charlene's arms cried as she reached out to Granger before Charlene could respond.
