Chapter 315

Chapter 315 Thorne was quick to reply this time, “Alright, got it.”

Saturday morning, Charlene headed towards The Underwood Mansion.

Most of the Underwood family was overseas, so when Charlene arrived, apart from a few staff members, the grand old house was occupied only by Kendal.

Upon learning that Charlene had arrived, Kendal personally came out to greet her at the door. “Charlene, you’ve made it!”

“Yes,” Charlene smiled, relieved to see he was in good spirits, though she couldn’t help but remark, “You’ve lost quite a bit of weight.”

Kendal chuckled, “Indeed, but my spirits are high, so don’t worry.”

Charlene and Kendal went inside.

Kendal offered her some coffee, noticing she had come alone. He didn’t mention Thorne, which told Charlene he was aware of her impending divorce.

Not only did Kendal refrain from asking about Thorne, but he also didn’t mention Jasmine. It was clear that he knew about the custody situation as well.

Since he didn’t bring it up, Charlene didn’t either.

They chatted over coffee for about twenty minutes when one of the Underwood staff approached Kendal to announce the arrival of guests.

Kendal remained silent, clearly not planning to greet them himself.

He invited Charlene to try some scones, and she nodded, taking a couple of bites.

Just then, the voice of the butler came through the side door, “Mr. Henderson, please come in.”

Kendal glanced over, and his expression darkened immediately upon seeing the newcomers.

Charlene paused, and the sound of approaching high heels confirmed her suspicions.

Turning slightly, she saw Thorne and Vesta entering the room.

Both Thorne and Vesta noticed her.

Thorne glanced at her briefly before shifting his gaze, greeting Kendal with a simple, “Kendal.”

Kendal gave a dismissive grunt, not bothering to speak. Thorne went on to introduce Vesta, “Kendal, this is Vesta.”

Vesta acted as if Charlene wasn’t even there.

After Thorne’s introduction, she smiled politely and greeted, “Hello, Kendal.”

Since Kendal was aware that Thorne was planning to divorce Charlene, he also knew about Thorne and Vesta’s relationship.

What he hadn’t expected was for Thorne to bring Vesta here so brazenly.

Kendal sneered, “I don’t have a granddaughter like you, so don’t call me that.”

“Kendal,” Thorne said, clearly displeased with Kendal’s attitude towards Vesta.

Kendal remained silent, his face stern.

Thorne, who was familiar with The Underwood Mansion, seemed unfazed by Kendal’s frosty reception. He and Vesta took seats on the opposite side of the room.

14:23 Chapter 31 Thorne had just introduced Vesta to the family home a couple of days ago.

Now, so soon, he couldn’t resist bringing her to meet Kendal.

With the divorce looming, was he that eager to introduce Vesta to those he valued?

Charlene thought this and returned her attention to her coffee, sipping quietly.

Thorne behaved as if he were at home, and when Kendal ignored him and Vesta, he poured them both a cup of coffee.

Kendal, his expression frosty, swatted his hand away, “Don’t touch my Thorne laughed, “Then how about I make my own?”
