Chapter 55 Vesta and Jasmine were already there when they arrived at the private dining room.
Vesta asked, "What's got you laughing so much?" Moran replied with a chuckle, "Oh, nothing. Just met a rather interesting character." After dinner, Thorne and Jasmine headed home.
Getting out of the car, Jasmine ran upstairs, bursting with excitement, "Mommy, Mommy!" Latonia emerged from the kitchen upon hearing the commotion. "Your mommy hasn't chyet." "What?" Jasmine's excitement faded. "Why is Mommy always so busy these days?" Grumbling to herself, she went upstairs.

The following morning, Jasmine woke up, half expecting to indulge in one of Charlene's homemade breakfasts.
Seeing the breakfast on the table looked nothing like Charlene's handiwork, she frowned, "Mommy didn't get up to make breakfast? Latonia replied, "Mrs. Henderson is not at home." Jasmine found it odd. "Where did Mommy go? Did she visit Grandma's again?" "Perhaps?" Without confirmation from Charlene, Latonia couldn't be sure.
Jasmine turned to Thorne. "Dad..." Taking his time, Thorne suggested, "If you want to know, call her." "I'll ask her tonight, then." Meanwhile, after breakfast, Charlene had gone straight to the office.
As Stewart was about to discuss new product development with Charlene, his phone rang.
The caller asked, "Has your company crossed paths with the Henderson Group?" "What?" Stunned, Stewart glanced at Charlene and switched to speakerphone.
"Someone from the Henderson Group was looking to cause trouble for your company, but we managed to intervene." Hearing that, Charlene clenched her fists tight. After the dinner party, Thorne didn't confront Charlene about Steward wronging Vesta, which she thought meant he wasn't interested in pursuing it.
It wasn't that he didn't care. It was just that he didn't bother arguing with Charlene, choosing instead to act, making it clear that targeting, Vesta would have consequences for her! Stewart realized what was happening. He reassured Charlene, patting her hand. "Don't worry. Our company has strong ties with the government. They can't touch us." "Right." Otherwise, to avenge Vesta, with Thorne's influence and wealth, he would have PrimeStar weakened, if not destroyed. His protection over Vesta was indeed fierce! Slightly concerned, Stewart asked, "If they can't get to PrimeStar, would they target the Ross family?" Charlene shook her head. "No." Having Irma in the mix meant Thorne wouldn't easily go after the Ross family. He would still want to respect Irma's dignity.

"But I want your beef steak." She hadn't had it last tand ast tand craved it even more. Charlene hesitated.
Rubbing her temples without responding, Jasmine added, "Dad's gone on a business trip, and I'm so bored. Chsoon, okay?" 'Thorne is on a business trip?' That gave Charlene pause.
