Divorce Time

Chapter 290

Granger had just hung up the phone when Daisy came running over, clutching a small lantern. “Uncle, I want to video call Minnie!”

Granger hesitated for a moment before agreeing, “Alright.”

The video call connected quickly, and Jasmine appeared on the other end.

As soon as Jasmine answered, Daisy excitedly exclaimed, “Minnie, look! My lantern!”

Concerned that Jasmine might not get a good view over the video, Daisy asked Granger to hold the phone while she stepped back a bit further to show off the entire lantern.

They were in a small garden, and the dim lighting made the glowing lantern look even more magical.

Jasmine watched, a familiar feeling tugging at her memory. Daisy returned, her eyes shining. “This was a Halloween gift from my aunt. Isn’t it pretty and cute?”

Jasmine couldn’t remember much from a few years back, but seeing Daisy with the lantern brought back some vague memories. “It is really pretty and cute,” she agreed, pausing before adding, “I think I might have played with something like that once.”

“Really? Don’t you have one now?” Daisy asked.

Jasmine shook her head, “No, I don’t.”

The idea of running around the garden at night with a lantern seemed like so much fun. She couldn’t resist saying, “I’ll go ask Dad to get me one! Don’t hang up; we’ll chat again soon.”
