Charlene nodded and settled onto the sofa by the coffee table.

Thorne gave another instruction. "Have someone bring in some coffee."

Josh responded promptly, "I've already taken care of it."

Charlene greeted her with a warm smile. "It's been a while."

"It really has," Sunny answered, returning the smile.

After listening, Thorne replied, "Understood. I'll be free this afternoon-have him come by before three."

"Of course," Sunny said. She gave Charlene a friendly nod before hurrying out. Charlene watched her go, quietly stirring her coffee.
