Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 17

Chapter 17 

Coy’s expression soured, believing that Charlene was using her position to get special treatment. “Ms. Ross, please watch your attitude at work. Do you think this is your home?” 

Charlene picked up her purse, her demeanor unchanged. “If you’re unsatisfied, you can fire me right now! 

“You” 

He had accompanied Thome to Goldland but was also aware of Charlene’s resignation letter. Although he had Thome’s trust, the company wasn’t his domain. Coy didn’t have the power to tell Charlene to leave. 

Moreover, Charlene was in good graces with Irma. If Charlene complained there, even if Thome backed him up, it wouldn’t end well for him. 

Without paying him any mind, Charlene left. 

Coy’s face turned a shade greener as he left the secretarial department. 

Josh noticed his foul mood and asked, “What happened?” 

Coy relayed the incident. 

osh was stunned. 

Usually, he interacted with Charlene more frequently and knew her character well. 

He couldn’t help saying. “It doesn’t sound like something Charlene would do. Is there some misunderstanding?” 

“There’s no misunderstanding. It happened exactly like that. Charlene is exploiting her status. She’s not as commendable as you’ve described.” 

Josh paused. “Maybe she’s acting out because she’s resigning?” 

But Charlene had been actively working lately, just as before. 

Right then, Thome approached. “What’s going on?” 

“It’s about Ms. Ross. She left works 

unfinished.” 

“If you’re dissatisfied, just follow the procedure to dismiss her.” It was clear Thorne didn’t care much about the situation. 

Sosh and Coy were stunned, not by Thorne’s indifference toward Charlene’s situation, but by his implication that he was unaware of her resignation letter. 

Wasn’t Charlene’s resignation his idea? Had they misunderstood? 

They were about to speak when Thorne’s phone rang. It was a call from Vesta. 

Thorne walked toward the elevator as he answered the call without another glance at them, “I’m off work now. I’ll be there soon…” 

Josh and Coy exchanged glances. 

Josh mused, “Maybe Mr. Henderson forgot?” 

“It’s possible.” 

Thorne never seemed too concerned about Charlene’s affairs. 

Elsewhere, Jasmine and Helena were close. Whenever Jasmine was home, Charlene would bring her to the Ross family. 

Even though Jasmine had returned to the country, she hadn’t called Helena once. Instead, she called Vesta daily, missing her terribly if they didn’t speak for a few days. 

Seeing that, Charlene didn’t insist. 

Besides, if Helena knew Jasmine and Vesta’s closeness, she’d be livid. 

So, this time, even with Jasmine back in the country, she didn’t pick her up from Thorne’s but went alone to the Ross family.
