Divorce Time

Chapter 55

Vesta and Jasmine were already there when they arrived at the private dining room.

Vesta asked, “What’s got you laughing so much?”

Moran replied with a chuckle, “Oh, nothing. Just met a rather interesting character.”

After dinner, Thorne and Jasmine headed home.

Getting out of the car, Jasmine ran upstairs, bursting with excitement, “Mommy, Mommy!”

Latonia emerged from the kitchen upon hearing the commotion. “Your mommy hasn’t come home yet.”

“What?” Jasmine’s excitement faded. “Why is Mommy always so busy these days?”

Grumbling to herself, she went upstairs.

Noticing Thome still lingering downstairs, Latonia inquired, “Mr. Henderson?”

Thorne shook his head. “No worries,” and followed upstairs. That night, Thorne noted that Charlene hadn’t returned.

Seeing the breakfast on the table looked nothing like Charlene’s handiwork, she frowned, “Mommy didn’t get up to make breakfast?

Latonia replied, “Mrs. Henderson is not at home.”
