Connie?” 

“Sorry, Charlene, I’ve got to head out of state tomorrow for some urgent business. I won’t be able to join you for your grandma’s birthday gift shopping.” 

“No worries, I’ve already got it sorted.” 

Charlene had never visited this antique shop before. She thought she’d try her luck here, and if nothing caught her eye, she planned to continue the search with Connie on another day. 

But, to her surprise, she had found the perfect gift. 

Connie was pleasantly surprised, “Really? That’s wonderful!” 

Charlene smiled, “Yeah.” 

As the conversation flowed, Connie suddenly mentioned, “Oh, Charlene, you told me the other day you ran into 

he Hawkins. I’ve been doing a bit of snooping, and it turns out the Hawkins are indeed planning to settle in Starfall. They’ve been on the hunt for a house these past few days.” 

Hearing about the Hawkins dimmed Charlene’s smile slightly, “Alright, thanks for letting me know.” 

“And about Grandma Vesta’s family, I heard they’ve already picked a place and will be moving in soon. They’ve been busy sending out invitations for a housewarming party.” 

“Got it, thanks.” 

After hanging up, Charlene drove back to the city.. 

Next week was her grandmother’s birthday. On Sunday, Charlene, along with Jasmine, returned to the Ross household to discuss the birthday party details with Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Ross. 

Thorne wasn’t around on Sunday, and Charlene stayed over at the villa. 

Thorne would return by Tuesday. 

For the next few days, she wouldn’t need to come back here. 

Previously, Thorne had left a gift box on her dresser, making her initially think it was for her. 

But after seeing its contents, she realized Thorne meant for her to give it to her grandmother on her birthday. 

So, when she left, she also took the two ornate boxes with her. 

After dropping Jasmine off at school, Charlene returned to the office. 

With PrimeStar launching three to four new projects simultaneously, the new week had Charlene and Stewart 

busier than ever, 

Given that Jasmine hadn’t called her in the last couple of days, Thorne must have returned on schedule. 

On Wednesday evening, Charlene and Stewart had dinner plans with a client. 

As they were about to enter the dining area, they bumped into Thorne and Vesta, along with Henley and Katie. 

This time, Katie and Vesta’s mother, Maureen Spencer, were also in Starfall. Thorne, as the prospective grandson–in–law, indeed made his presence felt. 

Barely back from his business trip, he had already made time to dine with them today. 

He was still deeply involved in matters concerning Vesta. 

Last time, Katie and the others hadn’t noticed her. This time, however, they noticed her and paused, as if 

anting to say something. Perhaps Thorne’s presence made them hesitate, and they ultimately remained silent.

As for Vesta and Thorne, their positioning prevented them from seeing her. 

Charlene, expressionless, withdrew her gaze and left. 

Katie and the others saw her leaving but did not follow. 

Over an hour later, after finishing their meal, Charlene and Stewart were leaving the restaurant when they again saw Vesta’s group. 

They were also in the parking lot, about to leave. 

Thorne was not with them, likely having left earlier. 

Before Charlene and Stewart could react, their client Felix noticed Vesta and her group. 

walking over enthusiastically, “Ms. Hawkins, Mr. Hawkins.”
