Divorce Time 251

Chapter 251

When Charlene noticed Thorne reaching out, she reluctantly handed him the bouquet she was holding.

She avoided looking at Moran and Granger altogether.

Approaching the bedside, she asked Irma, "How are you feeling now?"

"A bit sore, but manageable," Irma replied. Having just undergone surgery, she was understandably exhausted. She reached out and gently squeezed Charlene's hand, saying, "You've worked all day, must be tiring. Did you eat? Why don't you join Thorne and the others for dinner?"

Charlene replied, "No need, Grandma. I ate at the office before coming over."

Irma paused, sensing Charlene's continued reluctance to warm up to Thorne, and decided not to press further.

Charlene chatted with Irma for a while longer. When Irma began to tire and needed rest, Charlene prepared to leave.

Helena suggested that Thorne escort her since they were planning to grab dinner anyway, and Charlene decided to join them as they headed downstairs.

Once inside the elevator, she caught Moran's inquisitive gaze fixed on her. She turned and shot him a frosty look, "Had a good enough look?"

Moran shrugged, "Just about."
