Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 19

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 afternoon confirmed his suspicion. He paused but decided not to interfere.

The following morning, while having breakfast, Thorne told Jasmine, “I’ve 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.

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!”
