Chapter 93

Next month marks Helena’s 70th birthday.

Charlene and Vernon were brainstorming on how to throw a party that the old lady would love.

Upon hearing their plans, Helena didn’t seem too thrilled and said, “Don’t fuss over me. A simple dinner with the family is all I need.”

Aunt Maisie chimed in, “But it’s your 70th birthday, Helena. We should celebrate it with a bang…”

Charlene and Vernon agreed. Since it was the wish of her children and grandchildren, Helena didn’t object further.

Tomorrow, Jasmine has school. After dinner, Charlene drove off with Jasmine.

Arriving at their mansion, Jasmine hopped out of the car, sprinting inside with joy.

Charlene sat in the car, motionless, telling Jasmine, “Get to bed early after your bath. Mom has some work to do and won’t be coming up.”

Jasmine’s smile faded, “What?”

She came back to the car, her little brows furrowed, looking at Charlene, “Mom, you’re busy with work again?”

Charlene maintained a straight face and replied, “Yeah, just focus on your classes. Call me if you need anything.”
