ReadGoodChapter 329 Charlene was still at PrimeStar when she saw his call. She picked up the phone, "Mr. Harden?" Granger's voice softened at the sound of her voice. "Daisy hasn't seen you in a while. Are you free this weekend? Maybe we could go for a walk?” Charlene looked at the data she was analyzing on her computer screen. “I'm swamped for the next few days. How about next week?" Hearing her reply, Granger's gaze dropped slightly. "No worries, next week then." "Okay." Charlene's attention was already back on her data models. “Is that all?" Granger paused for a while, then replied, "...Sure." Charlene hung up and continued working late into the night, only leaving PrimeStar after ten.
The next morning, she headed to The Underwood Mansion.
When Kendal went overseas for treatment years ago, Jasmine was just over two. She was particularly adorable back then and had been quite close to Kendal, who absolutely adored her. Even when Thorne wasn't that attentive to Jasmine, he must have known how much Kendal cherished her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow that Kendal was back after all this time, he was definitely eager to see Jasmine again. Yet, last time, Thorne had brought Vesta instead of Jasmine, much to Kendal's disappointment.
Kendal had promised Jasmine would be joining them this time. But when Charlene arrived at The Underwood Mansion, Jasmine hadn't yet arrived.
Seeing Charlene, Kendal greeted her with a warm smile, "I've had the chef prepare sdelicious treats for you. Make sure you have plenty." Charlene chuckled, "I will.” After a bit of small talk, Kendal paused and said, "I heard that scoundrel was planning to bring that woman to Irma's birthday party. Naturally, she wasn't having it and told him if he dared show up with her, she'd skip her own party." Charlene froze mid-sip of her coffee.
Kendal continued, "The twit, though a twit, seems to have relented because it's Irma's first birthday celebration in years. But she's been quite upset lately. If you have a moment, give her a call, cheer her up a bit." Charlene nodded, "Alright.' The last time, Thorne had bombarded her with calls and messages and even showed up at PrimeStar. But since then, rasilence. She hadn't thought much about it until Kendal mentioned it. Now, it dawned on her that Thorne had likely conceded, realizing there was no point in reaching out anymore.
Kendal added, "Lloyd and the others won't approve of their relationship either." Though Thorne might have caved on the birthday party, if he was determined to marry Vesta, no one could really stop him. Kendal knew this all too well. He scowled, muttered something under his breath, and quickly changed the subject.
They chatted for another ten minutes when the sound of a car engine reached them from outside.
Unlike Thorne's last visit, Kendal stood up this time, suspecting it might be Jasmine. His eyes twinkled, and he said, "That must be Minnie." After a brief pause, Charlene followed Kendal to the door.
Sure enough, it was Jasmine who emerged from the car. Seeing Charlene, she ran over joyfully, "Mommy!" Charlene barely had tto respond before Kendal, smiling, was about to greet Jasmine. But upon noticing 1/2 14.07 Chapter 329 Thorne stepping out of the car, his smile vanished.

With a huff, he glared at Thorne, "I distinctly remember saying just to send Minnie over and not to botherwith your presence. So why are you here?" Thorne glanced at Charlene standing beside Kendal, then turned back to Kendal with a smirk, "I thought you were being sarcastic." Kendal huffed again, and Thorne continued, "Alright, don't get worked up. I'm just dropping Minnie off. I'll be on my way."
Ignoring Thorne, Kendal bent down and looked gently at Jasmine m "Minnie I'm your Grandpa Kendal. We used to have so much fun together. Do you remember?" Jasmine shook her head, holding onto Charlene's hand tightly.
While watching Kendal interact with Jasmine, Thorne caught Charlene's gaze but remained silent. He simply told Kendal he'd be leaving and drove off.
