Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 624

Once they arrived at the underwater villa, however, Jasmine was so thrilled that she became wide awake again. After her bath, she lay on the bed, excitedly watching the schools of fish swim just above the glass ceiling.

Sensing that they probably shouldn't all sleep together, Thorne had arranged for a luxury family suite, which contained two large, separate beds. It meant that while they were sharing a room, they wouldn't be sharing a bed.

Charlene finished her shower, changed into the pajamas she'd brought, and sat down on the edge of the bed where Jasmine was lying. Just then, Thorne emerged from the other bathroom and sat on the other bed.

He watched Jasmine's delighted expression and asked, "You like this that much?"

"I love it!" Jasmine declared. She then rolled over to Charlene's side. "Mommy, I want to sleep with you."

"Of course," Charlene said.

But Jasmine was exhausted. After snuggling happily in Charlene's arms for a few minutes, she turned her head and drifted off to sleep. Charlene carefully tucked her in. From the other bed, Thorne looked over.

"Good night," he said.

Charlene paused before replying, "Good night."

She lay down beside her daughter. A moment later, Thorne switched off the lights, and the room fell into a deep, quiet stillness.

...

The next morning, Charlene woke to find herself alone in the room. It took her a moment to get her bearings. After washing up, she left the villa and headed outside, where she immediately ran into Thorne, who had already been out playing with Jasmine for a while.

He smiled at her. "Morning."

Charlene blinked. "...Morning."

Jasmine ran toward her, holding a small bucket. "Mommy, Daddy took me beachcombing early this morning! We caught lots of seafood!"

"That's amazing," Charlene said, gently stroking Jasmine's cheek. The morning air felt brisk. "Weren't you cold going out so early?"

"It was cold at first, but not anymore!"
