Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time

Chapter 445

That night, when Charlene got home, she found Jasmine already fast asleep in her room.

After her shower, Charlene slipped under the covers. Almost immediately, Jasmine instinctively rolled over, nestling into her arms, and mumbled sleepily, "Mommy, you're back?"

"I'm here. Go back to sleep," Charlene whispered.

There was no reply.

Charlene glanced down and realized Jasmine had already drifted off again.

The next morning, Stewart headed out for a business meeting, while Charlene joined a group of engineers for a trip to The Henderson Group.

Charlene spent most of the morning deep in conversation about technical matters. When the discussion finally wound down, she glanced back and noticed Thorne standing nearby, quietly listening to her.

She paused, drew her attention back to the group, and said, "There are actually a few outstanding papers in academia on what I just mentioned. Would you like me to recommend some titles?"

"Yes, please!" came the enthusiastic response.

Charlene rattled off the names and authors of the papers, then turned to gather her things-only to meet Vesta's gaze.

Thorne noticed her arrival and walked over. "When did you get here?"

Charlene looked away, leaving Vesta to answer.

With a small smile, Vesta replied, "Just now."

In reality, she'd been there two or three minutes already.

She'd arrived just in time to catch Thorne and his technical team listening intently as Charlene explained some complex concepts. She only saw Thorne in profile, and though the angle wasn't perfect, it was clear that as he watched Charlene, there was a look of genuine admiration in his eyes.
