Chapter 373

As soon as Charlene returned to her office, her phone began to buzz.

It was a call from Jasmine Henderson.

Remembering the lunch invitation from Thorne in the meeting room earlier, Charlene hesitated and decided not to answer Jasmine's call.

Jasmine was persistent, though, calling three times in a row. When Charlene didn't pick up, Jasmine sent a text instead.

"Mom, I have a fencing competition next month. Can you come with me to my training tomorrow?"

Charlene stared at the message, her grip on the phone tightening for a moment.

Ever since Thorne took Jasmine to Goldland two years ago, Charlene had missed out on so many aspects of her daughter's life.

She wasn't even sure what courses or extracurricular activities Thorne had arranged for Jasmine. Before she considered divorcing Thorne, she'd tried asking Jasmine about these things, but Jasmine was always tight-lipped.

If Jasmine hadn't mentioned it now, Charlene would never have known she was taking fencing lessons, let alone preparing for a competition.

Realizing how much she'd missed in Jasmine's life, Charlene sat there, absorbing the weight of it all, her mind adrift.
