Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 874

For the next few days, Charlene was swamped with company affairs.

One afternoon, Stewart suddenly mentioned, "Neural Nexus Tech just lost a few more of their top engineers."

"Yeah," Charlene replied. "I heard."

"A couple of their investors have bailed, though a few are holding out. They're probably waiting to see if Thorne steps in to save them." Stewart chuckled before adding, "Word has it that EchoWave was one of the ones that pulled their funding."

EchoWave was Dalton Ramirez's company.

Charlene nodded.

"Honestly, considering how obsessed Dalton seemed to be with Vesta, I'm a little surprised he cut ties so ruthlessly," Stewart remarked.

Uninterested in Dalton's personal drama, Charlene offered no response.

"Has Thorne made it back from his trip yet?" Stewart asked.

Charlene shook her head. "I have no idea."

She hadn't spoken to Jasmine in three or four days, nor had she been keeping tabs on Thorne. She truly didn't know if he was back in the city.

"It's been almost a month. Hawkins Technology's court date is creeping closer, and Neural Nexus Tech is on the brink of collapse. Is Thorne seriously just going to let them burn?"

"I'm not sure," Charlene said.

Stewart knew that even if Thorne abandoned the Hawkins family, it wouldn't necessarily change the big picture.

Aware of this reality, he hadn't bothered to pay too much attention to the unfolding corporate disasters.

...

After school, Jasmine was just about to climb into her ride when she spotted Thorne sitting in the backseat. Her lips pressed into a tight line. She paused for a split second before finally getting in.

Thorne picked up a box resting beside him and offered it to her. "A gift for you."

Jasmine turned her face away, refusing to take it.
