Chapter 333

Chapter 333 As the conversation continued, he pondered aloud, “Or perhaps they have no clue about Charlene’s past?”

Many had assumed that Charlene and Stewart were an item.

Since learning that Charlene was also a student of Kenton, Granger had observed her interactions with Stewart. He noted that there was no romantic spark between them.

He wasn’t sure if Darleen’s comments were because she genuinely hoped to be with Stewart or if there was another reason behind it.

But regardless, with Charlene’s current achievements, even if she had been married or had a child, she was certainly worthy of anyone.

He responded, “They probably know.”

Moran’s eyes widened, “Then why would they still-

”

Before he could finish, he abruptly stopped, as if a thought had struck him, and said, “So Charlene has really fallen for Stewart and no longer loves Thorne?”

Without waiting for Granger to respond, Moran had a sudden realization and continued, “No wonder when Thorne wanted the divorce, she was so calm and didn’t even fight for custody of Minnie. I thought she was plotting something to win Thorne back.

Turns out she had already moved on, and if she had fought for Minnie, marrying into the Ferguson family might not have been so easy-”

Granger just gave a noncommittal shrug.

Moran was genuinely surprised that the Ferguson family was willing to accept Charlene.

A little while later, Thorne approached, and Moran couldn’t resist sharing, “Granger and I overheard Stewart’s mom chatting with others. Sounds like she’s all for Charlene joining the Ferguson family.”

“I bet she’ll marry into the Ferguson family pretty soon after your divorce.”

Thorne raised an eyebrow, clearly amused, “Oh? Is that so?”

Moran insisted, “That’s what Darleen seemed to imply. You can ask Granger.”

Thorne glanced at Granger.

Granger nodded slightly, “Yeah, that’s what it sounded like.”

Thorne chuckled, nodding in acknowledgment but said nothing further.

Just then, Kendal arrived, one of the last to show up.

Seeing Kendal, Thorne gave Granger a pat on the shoulder and turned to greet him, “Kendal.”

Kendal, however, bypassed Thorne and handed his gift to Irma, exchanging a few pleasantries before smiling at Jasmine, “Minnie, come give Grandpa Kendal a hug.”

Jasmine obliged, embracing Kendal.

Kendal beamed, “Our Minnie is such a sweetie.”

Jasmine looked up at Kendal and asked, “Grandpa Kendal, didn’t Mom come with you?”

She had already asked Thorne about Charlene. Thorne had mentioned that Charlene was busy and wouldn’t attend.

Seeing Kendal there, who seemed quite close to Charlene, yet not seeing her, Jasmine couldn’t help but inquire. Guests unfamiliar with the situation were very curious about Jasmine’s mother.

3/2 15:05 Chapter 333 Hearing Jasmine’s question, many, including Dalton, looked over, eager to uncover the mystery of Jasmine’s mother.

Kendal replied kindly, “No, your mom had some business and couldn’t make it.”

Jasmine sighed, “Alright.”

Since Jasmine referred to Kendal with a surname and not just “Grandpa,” it hinted that Jasmine’s mother wasn’t part of the Underwood family.

This left the guests, especially those like Dalton who were in the dark, speculating that Thorne and Jasmine’s mother might be divorced, and they had just kept it a secret from Jasmine.
