Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)

Gaylord spotted him the moment he approached. His thin lips pursed in displeasure, and his eyes quickly turned icy as they landed on Granger.

Granger acted as if he hadn't seen a thing and continued his stride towards them without the slightest pause.

He stopped in front of Charlene, turning to her with a composed demeanor, "What's the chat about?" Charlene, completely clueless about the tension between the two men, just said, "Work stuff."

For Charlene to be chatting so happily with Gaylord, it suggested that Gaylord was quite skilled in his profession. Which meant, compared to him, Charlene and Gaylord probably had more in common to talk about.

Plus, Gaylord still worked at PrimeStar. This gave him more opportunities to interact with Charlene than Granger had. The thought made the smile on Granger's face fade a bit.

He was about to speak when Stewart approached.

Seeing both Gaylord and Granger by Charlene's side puzzled him a bit. But he didn't dwell on it, simply saying, "Well, look who's all here."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Thorne and Vesta joined them, "Mr. Ferguson."

Stewart's smile didn't quite reach his eyes, "Mr. Henderson, is there something you need?"

Thorne replied, "There's a project I'd like to discuss with Mr. Ferguson, to see if he's interested."

The Henderson Group's tech company was one of the leading giants in the national tech arena, boasting countless core technologies and patents.

Their upcoming product had already made waves internationally.

As soon as Thorne mentioned wanting to collaborate, Stewart knew exactly what Thorne was pitching. Honestly, Stewart found it quite appealing.

Especially since, as one of the top companies in their industry domestically, they bore the responsibility of pushing domestic products onto the world stage to enhance their international influence.

To truly bring their innovative products to the forefront globally, it couldn't be done by a single company

alone.

It required mutual support among companies, collaborating for mutual benefits in technology.

So, even though Stewart had personal reservations about Thorne and didn't particularly want to work with him, on this matter-

He didn't need to consult Charlene; he already knew what the answer would be in his heart.

Because he knew Charlene's answer would align with his.

He said casually, "Now's not the time for collaboration talks. If you want to discuss it, Mr. Henderson, come by PrimeStar tomorrow."

Thorne wasn't surprised by Stewart's response. He chuckled, saying, "Consider it settled then."

Stewart, clearly annoyed, kept his tone even and asked, "Anything else, Mr. Henderson?"

Thorne replied, "That's all," and then said, "Sorry for the interruption."

With that, he didn't spare a glance at Charlene, turning to leave with Vesta.

Before Vesta left, she glanced over at Gaylord and Granger. Gaylord, noticing her gaze, turned his face away.

Granger stayed silent.

The next day.

Charlene drove to the office and had just stepped out of her car when she ran right into Thorne and Coy, who were also just exiting their vehicle.

She paused slightly as she shut her car door.

BUMS

She knew Thorne was scheduled to come by for a meeting about the collaboration that morning, but she hadn't expected him to arrive so early.

Seeing her, Thorne said, "Morning."noveldrama

Charlene didn't respond, instead turning and heading straight for the office entrance.

Since Charlene had left The Henderson Group, Coy hadn't seen much of her. In his mind, she was still the Charlene who used to be eager to stick by Thorne.

He wasn't used to seeing her treat Thorne with such indifference. It felt odd.
