Chapter 420

On her mother's birthday, Charlene received a divorce reminder from Thorne.

How fitting.

Padgett spoke up again, "Mr. Henderson's office said if you're free Monday morning, he'd like to schedule the paperwork for next Monday at 9 a.m. at city hall. What do you think, Ms. Ross?"

Charlene replied, "I'm available Monday morning."

"Alright," Padgett said. "I'll let Mr. Henderson's attorney know."

"Okay."
