Divorce Time 250

Chapter 250

Jasmine's excitement bubbled over as she spotted Thorne. Racing towards him, she called out, "Hey, it's Dad! Mom, let Dad in!"

Charlene gave a slight nod, her eyes downcast. "Alright."

The rest of the Ross family overheard the exchange between Charlene and Jasmine.

They were slightly taken aback at the news of Thorne's arrival. But with Jasmine there, they didn't press Charlene for details about Thorne's visit. A few moments later, Thorne showed up.

Charlene stepped outside to meet him and asked, "Are you here to take Grandma to the hospital?"

Thorne nodded. "Yes."

Charlene acknowledged with a nod. "Okay, give me a moment."

Thorne stayed put in his car, waiting patiently.

After about ten minutes, Helena emerged from the house. Seeing her, Thorne got out of the car and courteously opened the door for her.

Jasmine was also ready to head to school. She waved to Thorne, "Bye, Dad."

"Bye, sweetheart," he replied, nodding in acknowledgment to Charlene and the rest of the Ross family before getting back into his car and driving off. Charlene then drove Jasmine to school.
