Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149 

Granger could sense Charlene’s hesitation, so he reassured her, “I promise, my personal matters will never interfere with the business between your uncle and me.” 

“Are you sure?” Charlene asked, a hint of skepticism in her voice. 

“Absolutely.” 

Charlene was well aware of her uncle’s company’s dire straits. 

After a moment’s pause, she finally agreed, “Okay.” 

“Whenever you’re free, let me know. I’ll arrange a meeting time.” 

“Okay,” Charlene replied. 

As they spoke, Granger noticed how the cold night wind tousled her hair. “It’s chilly out tonight. You should head inside,” he suggested. 

Hearing his words stopped Charlene in her tracks. They were eerily similar to what Thorne had told her just moments before. 

She nodded silently and got into her car. 

Granger remained outside. 

As the car passed him, Charlene rolled down the window, gave a nod of acknowledgment, and then sped off. 

Granger watched her car disappear into the distance before he too left. 

Charlene returned to the Ross residence. 

Helena and Vernon were still up, while Nadine and Carl had retired upstairs. 

Seeing Charlene return, Helena and Vernon looked up, obviously having waited up for her. 

“Come here” Helena said. 

As Helena gestured for her, Charlene set her bag down and took a seat beside her. 

Holding Charlene’s hand, Helena asked, “Have you decided to let go of Thorne?” 

Her attitude towards Thorne today had been markedly different from before, and it was hard not to notice. 

“Yes,” Charlene said softly. “We’re planning to get a divorce.” 

Helena smiled, saying, “Well, that’s good. Divorce is good.” 

But then her expression turned worried. “But Minnie is quite attached to him, and he has been really good to Minnie these past years. He probably won’t let you have Minnie’s custody, this…” 

Charlene wasn’t concerned about Jasmine’s custody. 

She hadn’t yet voiced this thought. 

“I know. I’ll discuss it with him properly. It’s late; let’s all get some rest,” she suggested. 

Though Helena and Vernon went off to bed, Charlene couldn’t rest just yet. 

Because on the way home, Kenton and Stewart had discussed a lot, and upon reaching her room, Charlene had received a list of project tasks from Stewart, marked as urgent by their teacher, that needed completion by 6 

a.m. 

Setting her bag aside and taking a sip of water, Charlene replied, “Got it,” and immediately got to work without even taking off her makeup or showering. 

By 4 a.m., she had finished her tasks and sent the compiled content back.

Stewart, just as busy, was almost finished too and reminded her, “The professor wants us to visit him by 9
