Helena was unaware Jasmine had returned from abroad. Seeing Charlene bring Jasmine along, she was delighted. Jasmine and Helena had a close bond, bringing much joy to Helena.

That night, Charlene and Jasmine stayed over at the Ross family.

The following morning, Charlene got up early to make homemade pasta.

Seeing how skilled Charlene was, Helena reminisced about the days before Charlene was married, when she hardly did any household chores, and couldn't help but sigh.

Understanding what Helena was thinking, Charlene smiled and said, "Cooking is my way of finding peace. I quite enjoy it." Noticing Charlene had gained a bit more weight since her last visit, Helena felt more at ease.

After finishing the pasta and chatting with Helena, Charlene went upstairs.

Jasmine was already up, getting ready for the day.

While tidying up the pajamas Jasmine had changed out of, Charlene noticed Jasmine's tablet ping with a message from Vesta. [Minnie, awake yet? I will be back this afternoon, and we'll have dinner together. How about I take you out tomorrow?] Charlene glanced at it and looked away, putting Jasmine's changed clothes in the washing machine.

But knowing how attached Jasmine had becto Thorne over the she didn't think much of it. years, Charlene knew Jasmine was lying but pretended otherwise, serving Helena sfood. "It's okay. I'll stay here with you."

It seemed unreasonable for a wife to stay at her parents' house when her husband returned from a business trip. But Helena had always disapproved of Charlene's dedication to Thorne and would fully support her if she wanted a divorce. So, upon hearing Charlene say this, Helena smiled, "Good. Our Charlene is such a darling." Jasmine, worried about how to ditch Charlene to meet Vesta that evening, breathed a sigh of relief hearing Charlene's words.

When Jasmine left, Helena prepared a bunch of her favorite foods Buh Charlene declined, suggesting they be saved for her cousin's kids instead.

When Jasmine left, Charlene contacted Thorne's housekeeper to sekeeper to arrange for someone topick her up O rather than going herself. Helena found this odd but didn't dwell on it further.
