Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)

But he hadn't thought it through, suspecting Charlene might have gone to the Ross family

As he stepped into the bathroom, a thought suddenly struck him. Charlene usually took Jasmine with her whenever she visited the Ross family.

Unusually, she hadn't taken their daughter with her. Could it be she hadn't gone to the Ross family after all? Or perhaps something had come up with the Ross family. Recalling what Coy had mentioned when leaving the office that aftemoon confirmed his suspicion. He paused but decided not to interfere

The following morning, while having breakfast, Thome told Jasmine, Tve completed your enrollment process. You'll report to school tomorrow morning"

"Got it," Jasmine wrinkled her nose. "Can you take me to school tomorrow, Dad?"

"I might not be free"

"Okay then," Jasmine said, her eyes sparkling as she added, "I'll call Ms. Hawkins later and ask her to take me to school."

Before Thorne could reply, his phone rang. It was from the Henderson Mansion.noveldrama

Picking up, he heard Irma's voice.

"I heard you're back in town?"

"Yeah."

"Did Minnie come back with you?"

""She did."

"I've missed Minnie. Why don't you and Charlene bring her over for dinner tonight?" "Sure."

"And Charlene? Let me speak to her."

"She's not here."

How come she's not there at this hour?"

"She might have gone to the Ross family."

"Might have? As her husband, you have no clue where your wife might be?"

Thorne stayed silent.

"You-" Irma sighed, finally falling silent.

Then, with a softer tone, Thorne changed the subject. "Have you eaten?"

"I'm fed up with your attitude!"

Thorne chuckled. He continued his breakfast as usual.

Irma knew this grandson of hers had always been independent. Considering the current state of his marriage with Charlene, Thorne had made significant compromises. With Thorne's personality, even with good intentions, she couldn't push too much.

With that, she sighed, "Forget it. I have nothing more to say. Bye."

"See you tonight."

"You-" Irma hung up, clearly frustrated.

Initially uninterested, Jasmine tuned in toward the end and asked curiously, "Dad, who was that?"

"Your great-grandma." Remembering Irma's words, Thorne dialed Charlene, "She wants us over for dinner tonight."

Jasmine adored her great-grandma, who was equally fond of her. Hearing this, she said joyfully, "Oh, I've missed her, too."

Thorne hummed in response while looking at his phone.

At that moment, Charlene was having breakfast with the Ross family.

When she saw Thorne's call, she hesitated. The excitement and joy she once felt at the sound of his ring were no longer there.

After a two-second pause, she answered, "Hello."

Grandma wants us over for dinner tonight."

Charlene replied, "Okay, I'll be there."

You'll pick up Minnie tonight."

Charlene didn't want to go back there. Besides, even if she went to pick up Jasmine herself, Jasmine might not be too pleased. Why bother making things difficult for herself? She suggested, "Let the driver take her over. I'll drive there after work."

Traffic was usually hectic after work. It indeed seemed like the most hassle-free option.

Yet, Charlene had always enjoyed dealing with Jasmine's matters, never finding it a bother.

Hearing Charlene's suggestion, Thome was somewhat surprised. But he didn't dwell on it, considering it a minor issue not worth

fussing over.

"Alright then."

After hanging up, Jasmine knew who had been on the other end of Thorne's call.

"Was it Mommy?"

"Yeah."
