Granger said, "Thank you." "No problem," Charlene said. "She needs to get changed in case of catching a cold." Granger nodded, his gaze lingering on Charlene as if he wanted to say more.

Keep eating." 09.20 Once Daisy resumed eating, Granger shifted his attention from his niece and took a bite of his food before ong Charlene, "Are you here alone?" Charlene replied, "It's a company retreat. I'm here with my colleagues"
Granger was unaware that Charlene had left the Henderson Group, m Assuming her company was also having a retreat there, he paused before responding, "I see," Just then, Stewart caught Charlene's eye and waved at her.
Since Charlene preferred to keep her distance from Granger and those associated with him, seeing Stewart gave her an excuse to leave. Shen quickly waved back and seized the ouse moment to tell Granger, Thanks for last time. I've got to go. Enjoy your meal." Granger could sense Charlene's unease around him, possibly due to their last unpleasant encounter at the racetrack, but he didn't dwell on it.
