Sensing Leah's desire to continue, Maureen spoke calmly, "Leah, your cousin is studying. Let's not disturb her." "Oh..." Leah observed her cousin Vesta's intense focus and remarked, "Didn't the teacher arrive this morning? It's past five in the evening now, and she's still studying. Just watching her makesfeel tired. Aren't you exhausted, cousin?" Rhoda chimed in, "Of course, she's tired. But your cousin is destined for great things. I've always told you to learn from her, but you never listen." Then, with a warm smile, she added, "But Vesta, while hard work is important, you should take a break. Why not cand grab a bite?" Without lifting her head, Vesta replied, "No need, Thorne and I have dinner plans. I'll just read a bit more before heading out."

Charlene bent down to pick her up, maintaining her smile even as the faint scent of perfwafted from Jasmine.
This time, Thorne hadn't personally brought Jasmine over.
Jasmine had left the car door open, so the driver stepped out to close it, nodding a greeting at Charlene and Helena before driving off.

Charlene made sure she was snug under the covers, then picked up her phone and sent Thorne a message.
