Chapter 11
The next day, when Thorne arrived at the office, he bumped into Charlene.
Charlene had no idea Thand Jasmine had returned from their trip abroad.
Encountering Thorne at the office caught Charlene off guard, making her stop.
Seeing Charlene, a flicker of surprise crossed Thome's eyes, too, but he assumed she had just returned from a
business trip and didn’t dwell on it.
With an expressionless face, he treated her like a stranger, coldly passing by her and heading into the office.
In the past, if Charlene had learned about Thome’s sudden return, she would have been thrilled.
Even if she couldn't rush into his arms, she’d still look at him with excitement and joy, cheerfully saying “Good
morning, no matter how cold he seemed.
But Charlene merely glanced at his face and lowered her eyes, her face lacking the excitement and joy that used
to light it up. But Thorne didn’t notice any of this as he had already walked away.
Watching Thorne’s confident and upright figure leaving, Charlene wondered when he had returned. But since he
was back, the divorce would probably be on the agenda soon, right?
Having decided on the divorce, Charlene didn’t dwell on Thorne again. Returning to her desk, she immediately
got into her work mode. Half an hour later, Josh called and instructed, “Make two cups of coffee and bring them
to Mr. Henderson's office.”

Initially, to make Thorne fall for her, Charlene had learned that Thorne loved coffee and had put a lot of effort
into mastering the art of coffee making.
Her efforts paid off. After tasting her coffee, Thorne insisted on having the coffee she made, whether at hor
in the office. Learning Thorne loved her coffee made her ecstatic for a long time. She believed it was the first
step towards success.
However, she underestimated Thorne’s indifference and guard toward her. He did like her coffee, which was true,
but that was all. Thorne’s attitude toward her remained cold and distant.
So, whenever he wanted her coffee, he would have Josh contact her, and after she made the coffee, Josh or
someone else would cto pick it up. He never gave her a chance to get close to him.
Only occasionally, when Josh or the others were busy, would she have the chance to deliver the coffee to his
office.
From Josh's tone on the phone, it seemed she was supposed to bring the coffee directly to Thorne. After making
the coffee, Charlene placed it on a tray and took it to Thorne’s office.
Thorne’s office door was open.
As she reached the doorway and was about to knock, she saw Vesta sitting on Thorne’s lap, and they seemed to
be kissing. Charlene’s steps halted, her face turning pale.
Seeing her, Vesta hurriedly got off Thorne’s lap.
Thorne’s face darkened as he coldly said, “Who allowed you to chere?”
Charlene clenched the tray in her hand. “I cto bring you the co-"

Looking at Thorne’s expression, he seemed to think the same.

didn't give her any chance to explain.
