Chapter 238
They wanted to have a little chat with her.
Henley started, “Charlene…”
Before Charlene could even respond, Stewart chuckled, “Mr. Hawkins, are you here to announce to everyone about you and Charlene?”
Henley’s smile faltered a bit, but he quickly forced a laugh, “Mr. Ferguson, I have something to discuss with Charlene, if you could just-”
Stewart didn’t even let Charlene speak before he chimed in, “If Mr. Hawkins wants to let everyone know about you and Charlene, by all means, go ahead.”
Henley didn’t want to get on Stewart’s bad side.
So, with a resigned sigh, he and Laverne had no choice but to leave.
But before he walked away, he said to Charlene, “I’ll give you a call later, don’t forget.”
Charlene didn’t bother to respond. She simply didn’t care. And as for the call, she definitely wasn’t planning to pick up.
Stewart was visibly annoyed, “I’d love to just let it all go up in flames.”
Charlene felt the same way.
But she still hadn’t found any proof to clear her name from the incident with Thorne.
If she really had a public falling–out with the Hawkins family, Thorne and Granger would likely use it against her to protect Vesta.
Besides, she knew firsthand how the Spencer family could twist things around.
Wasn’t her mother still stuck in that care facility, unable to leave?
After chatting with Stewart for a bit, Charlene noticed that Thorne and his friends had stopped playing chess.
It was getting late, so they decided to find Helena.
Helena had just finished chatting about art with Campbell.
Campbell had more friends to entertain, so he went off to greet them.
