Divorce Time 289

Chapter 289

Jasmine shook her head and said, "I got through."

Thorne held her close, gently rubbing her temple with his thumb, noticing how her eyebrows and eyes looked so much like his. "Got through, but you're not happy?"

Jasmine furrowed her little brows. "I am happy, but..."

"Then next month it is. Dad will wait with you."

"Okay."

Feeling tired, Jasmine chatted a little more, yawned, and then slipped out of his embrace to head back to her room for some rest.
