Divorce Time

Chapter 285

Given the current situation, it’s likely that Jasmine will be spending New Year with the Henderson family.

Helena felt a twinge of sadness at the thought of Jasmine being away and also felt sorry for Charlene.

Charlene, however, remained composed and reassured Helena, saying, “Grandma, I’m alright. As long as Minnie is happy, that’s what matters.”

Helena suspected Charlene was just putting on a brave face to keep her from worrying.
