Divorce Time

Chapter 306

Hearing a noise, Thorne turned around.

Charlene had just stepped out of her car, quietly shutting the door behind her. She walked over, taking the umbrella from his hand without a word.

Thorne glanced down at her feet, asking, “Your foot okay?”

It hurt a bit, but she could still walk.

Charlene didn’t go into why he had been unusually attentive, helping and holding her earlier. She simply told him, “Get in touch once you’ve sorted out the divorce.”

Her words implied that if it weren’t for the divorce, there’d be no reason for them to communicate.

With that, she opened the umbrella, brushed past him, and walked away.

Thorne watched her retreating figure but didn’t stop her, just letting her go. Their cars were parked not far from

each other.

He only got into his own car after making sure she was safely inside hers. A few moments later, his car drove out of the parking lot.

Just as Thorne left, Dalton’s car pulled out right after.

Throughout the day’s meeting and subsequent dinner, journalists had been present.

By the time Charlene got home from the hospital, it was already past eight in the evening. As she began her dinner, news from the meeting was already airing.

The news segment featured both her and Thorne.

Meanwhile, Vesta and Maureen Spencer were also watching the news.
