Chapter 169

Thorne didn't look at Charlene as he gently tapped Jasmine on the nose, "Daddy's got to work, pumpkin. Be good and listen to your mom, okay?"

"Okay," Jasmine mumbled reluctantly. She glanced at Charlene, then slowly reached out her hand as she approached her, a quiet offer of peace.

Charlene took her hand and after nodding to the housekeeper, they left the house.

By the time they reached the Ross household, Irma had already been there for a bit.

Upon seeing only Charlene and Jasmine without Thorne, Irma's face fell. "Where's Thorne? Busy again?"

Charlene simply nodded.
