Charlene paused for a moment before replying with a simple "Merry Christmas."
She was about to turn off her phone and go to sleep when another message came in from Stewart, asking if she wanted to visit Kenton and his wife with him the next morning.
Charlene replied: [Sounds good.]
With that, she finally put her phone down and went to bed. The neighborhood stayed quiet through the holiday, and Charlene slept straight through until morning.
When she awoke, Jasmine was already awake beside her. "Merry Christmas, Mom!"
Charlene smiled and handed her a gift she had prepared the day before. "Merry Christmas, sweetheart."
Jasmine was overjoyed to receive her present. After they washed up and went downstairs, they found Thorne already awake and on the phone. Seeing them, he turned his head and said into the receiver, "I know, Grandma. We'll be over in a bit."
He hung up and handed Jasmine a gift of his own. "Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas! Thank you, Dad!" Jasmine beamed, then added, "Mom gave me a present too!"
Thorne smiled and looked at Charlene. "Oh, did she?" His gaze lingered on her. "My grandma wants us to come over to the family estate."
It was still early, so they had enough time to drive to the estate for breakfast before she would have to head back to the Ross family home. However, Charlene said, "Could you give my regards to your grandmother? I don't think I'll be able to make it."
