Divorce Time

Chapter 107

By the time they got home, Irma was still awake.

Seeing Charlene indeed came back in Thorne’s car, she finally went to her room to rest, at peace.

After heading upstairs, Charlene made a call to Vernon Ross to update him on the situation.

As soon as she hung up with Vernon, Stewart’s call came through.

Half an hour later, after finishing the call and returning to her room, Charlene found Thorne had already * showered and was now leaning against the headboard, deeply engrossed in a book.

Noticing her return, Thorne shifted his gaze from the book, gave her a brief look, and then returned his attention to his reading.

Charlene also diverted her gaze, then went to take a shower and do her skincare routine.

By the time she was done, it was getting late. Charlene took a glance at Thorne.

She had gotten used to Thorne’s coldness towards her. Being alone with him didn’t make her feel uncomfortable anymore.

But now, after he had helped her, there seemed to be a slight thaw in their relationship, which ironically made her unsure of how to act around him.

Regardless, she knew their relationship wouldn’t fundamentally change.

With that thought, Charlene quietly got into bed, ready to sleep.
