Divorce Time 259

Chapter 259

Charlene was driving away from the hospital when Helena suddenly seemed to remember something. "Thorne made it to the hospital, but what about Minnie? Where did she go?" she asked, her voice tinged with concern.

Charlene was about to respond, but Helena's expression had already turned sour. She was clearly upset that Thorne had left Jasmine behind, choosing instead to accompany Vesta to the hospital to see Irma. "He'll sort it out," Charlene reassured her.

Helena, still skeptical, persisted. "If he keeps this up, Charlene, you need to take him to court. You have to get custody of Minnie, no matter what!"

Charlene hesitated for a moment before replying softly, "Okay."

Despite her agreement, Helena remained visibly displeased.

When they finally arrived at the Ross family home, Helena was the first to step out of the car.

At that moment, Charlene's phone began to ring. It was Jasmine calling.

Charlene chose not to answer. Perhaps it was because she'd spent so little time with Jasmine in recent months, often ignoring her calls. Lately, whenever they met, Jasmine seemed clingier than ever, much like when Charlene used to care for her all by herself. The phone buzzed again. Charlene glanced at it but still didn't pick up. Instead, she switched it off and joined the Ross family in the dining room, getting ready for dinner.

Just as she settled into her seat, the house phone rang.
