Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 515

Leah was still fuming. The plane had barely lifted off when she flagged down a flight attendant and ordered a drink.

As soon as the attendant stepped away, Leah fixed her eyes on Charlene. Hiding the drink behind her back, she marched straight down the aisle toward her.

Maureen had already guessed Leah would try something.

So, before Leah could get too close, Maureen was watching her.

She furrowed her brow and gave Leah a silent shake of her head.

Leah’s anger simmered—there was no way she’d back down that easily.

Maureen’s expression turned icy. She picked up her phone and sent Leah a curt message: *Sit back down. Now.*

Maureen didn’t need to say it out loud; as Leah read the text, she could almost feel the weight of Maureen’s authority.

Georgina, sitting between Maureen and Leah, saw it all and understood what Leah was up to.

She reached over and gave Leah’s hand a gentle, warning pat, urging her to behave.

Leah pouted, sulking openly.

But in the Hawkins family, Maureen and Vesta were the unchallenged authorities.

Leah was used to following their lead.

So, after shooting Charlene one last glare, she spun on her heel and trudged back to her seat, grumbling under her breath.

Jasmine, oblivious to the tension between Charlene and Leah before takeoff, didn’t notice any of this.

Once the plane touched down in Starfall and came to a stop, Jasmine couldn’t wait to dash over to Charlene. “Mom!”

Charlene ruffled Jasmine’s hair. “Did you behave on the flight?”

“I did!” Jasmine beamed.

Charlene and Maureen sat across the aisle from each other.

Seeing Jasmine come over, Maureen glanced at her, expression unreadable.

Not just Maureen—Georgina and Leah in the row in front, and Katie behind, all turned to look at Jasmine.

As Jasmine chatted quietly with Charlene, she glanced Maureen’s way and met her gaze for a brief, tense moment.

Maureen’s look was cold and impassive as she turned away.

Jasmine didn’t know Maureen or Katie. Among the Spencer and Hawkins families, Jasmine only recognized Vesta and Leah.

So, when she caught the chill in Maureen’s eyes, Jasmine simply assumed she was a stranger and thought nothing of it. She noticed Katie watching her too, but didn’t give it a second thought.
