Chapter 225

Chapter 225 Thorne’s feelings for her were something he never doubted. So, that scene was probably just a misunderstanding.

Friday morning, right after Charlene woke up, she received a call from Helena inviting her to join her at an art exhibition by Campbell Watson, York’s grandpa, on Sunday morning.

Helena is a devoted fan of Campbell, the renowned painter.

The last time Campbell held an exhibition was over a decade ago.

Such an opportunity was rare, so Charlene agreed, “Sure, I’ll go with you on Sunday.”

No sooner had she hung up than Jasmine called her.

This was the first time Jasmine had called since attending a parent–child activity at her school on Monday.

Charlene decided not to pick up.

On Saturday afternoon, she headed over to the Ross family for dinner. Sunday morning arrived, and she set out with Helena to the exhibition.

As they reached the venue and Charlene stepped out of the car, she noticed Stewart’s car pulling in as well.

Charlene was somewhat surprised, “Stewart?”

Stewart, equally taken aback, replied, “Charlene, Helena, you’re here too?”

“Yes.” Helena chuckled, “Are you interested in art too, Stewart?”

Stewart explained, “Not really, I’m here to deliver a gift from my family to Mr. Campbell...”

Campbell was a famous artist, and the Watson family was quite prominent. Whenever Campbell held an exhibition, everyone from their social circle came to show support, and even those unfamiliar with them tried to forge connections.

It was said that whenever Campbell held an exhibition, not only did the paintings sell, but the gifts he received were worth a fortune.

The Watson family certainly didn’t need the money.

In frustration, Campbell hadn’t held an exhibition for over a decade.

The Ferguson family didn’t need to curry favor with the Watsons.

Ever since Stewart’s father’s generation, the relationship between the Fergusons and the Watsons had been. somewhat distant, but the two family elders maintained a good friendship.

Now that Mr. Campbell was hosting an exhibition after many years, Stewart’s grandfather wasn’t keen on the commotion but wanted to show his support, so he sent Stewart with a gift. Stewart was surprised to find Charlene and Helena there too.

Back when Campbell held exhibitions, the halls were always packed. Now, with the Watson family still thriving and Campbell returning after so long, Stewart could only imagine how lively the exhibition would be.

This meant that people like Thorne, Vesta, and the Hawkins family might also show up.

Charlene was just a kid the last time Campbell held an exhibition. Over the years, she’d heard little about him and didn’t know much about such events.

Seeing Stewart’s slightly concerned demeanor, she asked, “What’s up?”

Stewart laughed it off, “Nothing. Wait for me, I’ll park the car, and we can go in together.”

1/2 09:40 Chapter 228 “Alright.”

Once Stewart parked, the three of them–Charlene, Helena, and Stewart–entered the exhibition hall.

As Stewart expected, the massive three–story venue was already bustling with people.

They barely had time to admire the artwork or accompany Stewart in greeting the Watsons before they ran into the Hawkins and Spencer families.

Katie Hawkins and Georgina Spencer were there, their faces bright with smiles as they chatted with others.

Seeing Charlene and Helena, Katie and Georgina weren’t surprised.

After all, they knew Helena loved Campbell’s work, and with the rare chance of an exhibition, there was no way Helena would miss it.
