Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 636

Charlene knew why York was there. She had already made her position clear to him before. But his persistence...

She paused, then looked at York seriously. "I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be ready for a new relationship for a very long time. So, Mr. Watson, you shouldn't—"

She didn't want to lead him on.

York knew what she was going to say. He interrupted her, "I understand, but you don't have to try and talk me out of it." With that, he gently pressed a bouquet of flowers into her arms. "I hope you like them."

Seeing her standing there motionless, he smiled. "You should go on up. I won't bother you any longer."

Charlene looked down at the flowers, hesitated, and finally shook her head, handing them back to York. "Thank you, but... I'm sorry." Without another word, she turned and went into the building.

York wasn't angry. He watched her until she was out of sight before turning to leave, but at that moment, he saw Gaylord standing nearby. Their eyes met. York gave a slight nod, said nothing, and got into his car. Gaylord also remained silent. He had overheard Charlene turning York down.

York hadn't reacted to the rejection, but Gaylord knew he wouldn't give up that easily. The moment Charlene was actually divorced, York would make his move. Though he knew Charlene had a child, Gaylord didn't know much about her past. But from her response to York, he suddenly understood that she must have been deeply hurt in the marriage she was trying to end. York must have realized this too, which was why he had chosen not to press her further.
