Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 506

Mr. Windsor and the others exchanged uncertain glances.

It dawned on them that Thorne had attended the dinner specifically because Charlene would be there.

But... Thorne already had a girlfriend, and their relationship seemed solid. Surely, his interest in Charlene was just professional admiration—there couldn’t be anything more to it, could there?

Charlene and Thorne ended up talking for quite a while.

Once they’d finished discussing the details of the proposal that interested Thorne, the conversation naturally petered out.

After that, Thorne didn’t speak to Charlene again.

Still, Coy, Josh, Mr. Windsor, and a few of the more observant guests all noticed that Thorne would occasionally glance in Charlene’s direction.

As the dinner was drawing to a close, Thorne’s phone suddenly rang.

No one knew what was said on the other end, but Thorne’s expression changed abruptly. After ending the call, he turned to Charlene and the others. “Ms. Ross, everyone—I’m sorry, but something urgent’s come up. I have to leave now. Let’s get together again another time.”

Since he’d singled her out, Charlene could only respond politely, “Of course. Take care.”

Thorne and Coy left in a hurry.

Mr. Windsor watched Thorne rush out, shaking his head. “For Mr. Henderson to leave so suddenly, especially with how worried he already seemed, something serious must have happened.”

Charlene’s heart skipped a beat, a wave of concern washing over her.

Was Thorne’s sudden departure because his grandmother’s condition had taken a turn for the worse?

With that thought, she quickly reached for her phone.

If something really had happened to his grandmother, Thorne would have texted her as soon as he stepped out of the restaurant.

She unlocked her phone, but there were no new messages from Thorne.
