Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 630

Stewart was at a loss for words. "Yes, we had plans," he thought, "but that was before you showed up. Obviously, I've changed my mind."

He forced a laugh. "Something came up last minute. My apologies, Mr. Henderson."

Thorne smiled back but didn't press the issue. He stood up. "Alright, next time then." After shaking Stewart's hand, he extended his to Charlene. She hesitated for a moment before taking it, saying coolly, "Take care."

Thorne nodded, glanced at Gaylord, and then left PrimeStar with Coy.

For the next two days, the collaboration required Charlene and Gaylord to be at The Henderson Group. On both mornings, Thorne would drop by their meetings and sit in for a while, though he never stayed for more than half an hour. By now, Mr. Windsor and the others were almost certain that Thorne had developed feelings for Charlene.

Gaylord rarely visited The Henderson Group. He'd heard that Thorne sometimes sat in on Charlene's meetings, but knowing Thorne had a background in AI, he just assumed he was interested in the project details and didn't think much of it.

That day, around noon, Vesta arrived at The Henderson Group again, but Thorne was nowhere to be seen. She did, however, run into Coy.

Coy paused when he saw her and walked over. "Ms. Hawkins, are you here for Mr. Henderson?"

Vesta smiled. "Yes. Is Thorne around?"
