Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 483

Charlene was just about to speak when Thorne cut in first. “Your mom’s busy with work. Don’t bother her.”

Jasmine pouted, clearly displeased, her wide, hopeful eyes fixed on Charlene.

Charlene crouched down to meet her daughter’s gaze. “I have to go back to the office for a meeting, and right after that, I need to visit another client. It’s really not convenient to bring you along this time. Next time, sweetheart, I promise.”

Jasmine’s face fell, her voice muffled with disappointment, but she finally let go of Charlene’s hand. “Okay…”

Irma was still asleep, and there wasn’t much to say between Helena and Thorne. So, when Charlene left, Helena quietly left with her.

Inside the elevator, Helena’s voice was low and even. “He’s not worried you’ll be distracted if Minnie goes to the office with you. He’s worried someone he knows will see her there, isn’t he?”

Charlene understood exactly what she meant.

If word got out that she and Thorne were still technically married, Vesta would be the first to suffer.

To protect Vesta, Thorne had every reason to keep their not-quite-divorced status under wraps until everything was finalized.

When they reached the ground floor, Charlene watched Helena’s car pull away before turning on her heel and heading for her own car.

At the hospital, as Granger Harden stepped out of his car, he immediately recognized Charlene’s profile in the distance.

He opened his mouth to call out, but Charlene was already driving out of the parking lot.

The words died on Granger’s lips.

Moran Albright walked around from the driver’s side and clapped him on the shoulder. “Lost in thought again? C’mon, let’s go.”

Snapping back to reality, Granger followed Moran inside and up the stairs.

As they entered the hospital room, Jasmine greeted them with a bright, “Granger, Mr. Albright!”

Granger smiled, ruffling Jasmine’s hair before placing the fruit basket he’d brought on the table.

That’s when he noticed the gifts Charlene and Helena had brought earlier, neatly arranged nearby. On one package, a card was tucked under the ribbon, Charlene’s handwriting clear and delicate: “Wishing Irma a swift recovery.”

Seeing Charlene’s familiar script, something inside Granger softened. He found himself staring at the card, lost in thought, eyes lingering on the name: Charlene.
