DreameNovelDivorce T157 Chapter 157 1: : Charlene paused before asking, "So, when do you wanna go?" "Um..." Jasmine seemed hesitant.
Charlene figured she was biding her time, waiting for a moment when both Vesta and Thorne were preoccupied so she could have her mom all to herself. However, she had no idea when that opportunity would arise, which explained her hesitation. Charlene looked away and said, "No worries, just letknow when you're ready, and if I'm free, we'll go." Jasmine beamed, "Okay!" After a hectic week.
On Friday evening, Charlene got off work a bit early, Just as she was about to whip up something for dinner, Jasmine's call cthrough.
Charlene hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Mom, I'm free this Saturday, let's go skiing!" Charlene had promised to take her skiing whenever she wanted.

Tomorrow, she had a semi-social commitment she didn't want to mix with mother-daughter time.
She responded, "I'm not free tomorrow, sweetheart. Pick another day." "But I really want to go this Saturday. Can't you make it, please?" Jasmine tried to wheedle her mom into agreeing.
"Not this Saturday, maybe next week. If you still want to go, we'll plan for it then." Jasmine tried to protest, but Charlene was firm, "Talk toabout it next week if you're still interested. And remember to eat well, don't be picky." With that, Charlene hung up.
Jasmine didn't call back.
Knowing her daughter, Charlene figured Jasmine was probably miffed.
But Charlene wasn't too bothered and headed into the kitchen to start on dinner.
The next day.
Charlene got a call from Granger asking if she needed a ride, which she declined.
After breakfast, Charlene drove herself to the ski resort.
Upon her arrival, Granger and Daisy were already there.
Seeing her, Granger looked over, but Daisy, breaking away from Granger, ran excitedly towards Charlene, "Ms. Ross!" As Daisy hugged her, Charlene gently returned the embrace, noticing Daisy's cheerful smile, she commented, "Looks like you've grown a bit taller, and your cheeks are chubbier, making you even prettier." Delighted by the compliment, Daisy nodded, "Yeah! I've been eating lots of burgers." Charlene chuckled, about to reply, when Daisy suddenly pulled out a crystal keychain from her pocket, "Ms. Ross, this is for you." The keychain featured a miniature pink cat backpack with a tiny white kitten inside, quite unique.

Given that Granger often included Daisy in outings with Thorne, Vesta, and others it wasn't surprising Daisy and Jasmine had matching keychains. Charlene paused but didn't pry, instead smiling, "It's beautiful, I love it. Thank you, Daisy."
Hearing Charlene liked it, Daisy's happiness doubled, and and she tugged at Charlene, "Ms. Ross, let's go skiing." Charlene agreed, "Sure."
As they walked in, Granger turned to Charlene and asked, "Have you had breakfast yet? We brought salong in case you haven't eaten." Charlene replied, "No need, I've already eaten." "All right." After suiting up and donning goggles, they headed out to ski.
Daisy was still a novice, but Charlene, having skied for many years, patiently guided her.
The ski resort was bustling with visitors over the weekend.
