Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 800

He was genuinely surprised.

Given York's personality and profession, he despised these corporate schmoozefests. He only ever attended when he didn't want to rain on his friends' parade.

And whenever Dalton and Kelvin wanted to ditch early, York was always the first out the door.

York hated these events. For him to act so out of character meant only one thing: someone he cared about was here.

Dalton immediately connected the dots.

The woman York liked was in this room.

A knowing smile touched Dalton's lips. He turned to York, ready to tease him, only to find York staring intensely at Stewart... and Charlene.

Dalton froze.

A horrifying realization crashed over him, wiping the smile from his face. His grip on his glass tightened instinctively.

However—

Just as he was trying to convince himself it was impossible, a loud crash of shattering glass echoed from Charlene's direction. She gasped, stumbling backward toward the floor.

Before Dalton could even process what was happening, York shoved his drink into Kelvin's chest and sprinted toward Charlene.

Dalton stood frozen, rooted to the spot.
