Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114 

While strolling through the lobby towards the elevator, the staff bumped into Thorne and his group. 

Moran inquired, “What’s this meal…?” 

The staff immediately replied, “Ordered by the lady.” 

Naturally, the “lady” referred to Charlene. 

Moran didn’t give the staff a hard time and let him go ahead with delivering the meal. 

However, after the staff left, he chuckled, “Looks like, we won’t need to call her for dinner later.” 

Thorne responded nonchalantly, “Let’s invite her anyway.” 

Hearing this, Vesta paused, then glanced at Thorne with pursed lips. 

Granger and Moran were also taken aback.. 

But Moran quickly laughed it off, adding, “True. Irma specifically instructed you to take good care of her. It wouldn’t end well with Irma if we dine without inviting her.” 

After all, they were at the Henderson family’s private estate. It was likely Irma had her ways of keeping an eye on things here. 

Any small movement on their part could easily reach Irma’s ears. 

Hearing this, Vesta relaxed her lips. 

She had thought that, through Irma’s matchmaking, Thorne had developed genuine feelings for Charlene… 

But Moran’s comment cleared up her misunderstanding. 

Granger, too, shifted his gaze away after Moran’s words. 

At that moment, Jasmine returned. Thorne ruffled her hair, saying, “Go upstairs and call Mom down for dinner.” 

Jasmine paused, hesitantly asking, “Invite Mom to dine with us?” 

“Yes.” 

Jasmine opened her mouth, furrowed her brows, then looked towards Vesta. 

She didn’t want her mom dining with them. 

If her mom joined, she would definitely target Ms. Hawkins, leading to an unpleasant atmosphere for everyone. Vesta offered a comforting smile, “Go ahead.” 

After a moment’s hesitation, Jasmine went upstairs. When Jasmine rang the doorbell, Charlene was already in her room, dining. 

Seeing Jasmine standing outside through the TV monitor, Charlene put down her fork and knife, and opened the door. “Minnie?” 

Jasmine looked up at Charlene and said, “Mom, Dad asked me to invite you to dine with us.” 

Charlene declined without hesitation. “I’m already eating. You all go ahead.” 

Jasmine breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “Okay, so… I’ll just tell Dad that?” 

Charlene knew her daughter was reluctant to have her join the dinner downstairs. She saw the reluctance in her expression and simply said, “Yes, go ahead.” 

Jasmine smiled brightly. “Okay!” Saying so, she turned to leave, taking a few steps before feeling a bit guilty. 

Mom, are you okay dining alone? Maybe, I can keep you company?”
