Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 884

Amid the hushed whispers of the crowd, Thorne stopped in front of Dr. Lucas. "Dr. Lucas."

Granger and Moran echoed the greeting.

Dr. Lucas acknowledged them with a grunt. He cast a sideways glance at Thorne, then looked pointedly toward where Charlene had gone. "Mistaking a piece of gravel for a diamond," he scoffed. "Do you really not feel a shred of regret?"

Thorne didn't follow his gaze. Instead, he seamlessly changed the subject. "I thought you'd be more interested in the project I mentioned to you last time."

Dr. Lucas fell silent.

He was interested.

Since Thorne was determined to dodge the topic of Charlene, the older man couldn't be bothered to pry.

Ultimately, the messy love lives of the younger generation were none of his business.

He just found it aggravating and incredibly tragic that a woman as brilliant as Charlene was overlooked by Thorne.

Dropping the issue, he pivoted to discussing the project details with Thorne.

Granger and Moran, unable to contribute to the highly technical conversation, politely excused themselves and walked off.

Moran looked over at Charlene. Thinking about how Thorne had completely dismissed her earlier, he paused and couldn't help but murmur, "Charlene really is exceptional in every way. If she truly wasn't the one who orchestrated that drugging incident back then... she's actually a catch. She and Thorne are a great match..."

She was leaps and bounds better than Vesta.

He had zero respect for the Spencer family's character.

As for Vesta—now that he knew her full background, he strongly suspected that her initial meeting with Thorne had been entirely orchestrated.

But Thorne was utterly devoted to Vesta. Even knowing the deep-seated grudge between Vesta and Charlene, he had never mentioned it to Granger or Moran. For years, Thorne had turned a deaf ear to the Henderson family elders' warnings.
