Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 4

Chapter 4 

Charlene led a simple life dedicated to her work and her family, always putting her husband and daughter first. That’s why she used most of the living allowance Thorne gave her to support their father–daughter activities, 

Given this scenario, there shouldn’t have been much in her bank account by then.- 

However, since Jasmine had mostly lived with Thorne in Goldland over the past year, her opportunities to splurge on them had significantly diminished. 

By the time, her account surprisingly still boasted over $30 million. To Thorne, this sum was a drop in the ocean, but for Charlene, it was a considerable amount. Recognizing it as hers, Charlene didn’t hesitate to transfer the money to her account. 

Leaving two cards behind, she dragged her suitcase without looking back. She owned a small apartment near her office, a cozy place of just over a thousand square feet. 

She bought the apartment four years ago to help out a friend who had left home, and it had been sitting empty ever since. It finally proved useful. Regularly cleaned despite its vacancy, the apartment required minimal effort to make it livable. 

After a tiring day, Charlene settled in around ten o’clock at night. 

The jarring alarm woke her up with a start. “Ring, ring, ring-” 

Disoriented and groggy, it took her a moment to remember that it was 1 a.m. her time, but over in Goldland, where Thorne and Jasmine 

– breakfast time. were, it was past 7 a.m. 

Since Jasmine had moved to Goldland with Thorne, Charlene had made it 

a 

point to call her at this hour. 

At first, Jasmine had struggled with the transition and missed Charlene terribly, constantly wanting to call. But Jasmine’s longing turned into indifference and impatience as time passed. 

Realizing the alarm no longer served its purpose, yet reluctant to let go, Charlene couldn’t help but smile bitterly. After hesitating, she deleted the alarm and turned off her phone to go back to sleep. 

Meanwhile, Thorne and Jasmine almost finished their breakfast. 

Aware of Charlene’s daily calls, Thorne didn’t always prioritize being home for them and didn’t think much of it. Noticing Charlene hadn’t called, he was indifferent and went upstairs to change after breakfast. 

Jasmine felt that Charlene was becoming more and more naggy, making her hesitant to chat on the phone. 

With no calls from her mom, she figured Charlene must have been held up.
