After reading the message, Charlene simply swiped her screen away and didn't reply.

That evening, Charlene went out to dinner with her family.

When they arrived at the restaurant, she told her family to head inside first while she stayed back to find a parking spot. After parking, she grabbed her purse and stepped out of the car, completely unaware that the car in the adjacent spot belonged to Vesta.
