It was past nine at night when Charlene Ross landed at Goldland Airport.
It was her birthday. As soon as she turned on her phone, it lit up with a barrage of birthday wishes. All were from colleagues and friends. But not a single word from Thorne Henderson.
Charlene's smile faded slightly.
When she got to the villa, it was well past ten.
The housekeeper, Latonia, was stunned upon seeing her. “Mrs. Ross, what... what brings you here?”
“Where are Thorne and Minnie?”
“Mr. Henderson hasn’t come home yet, and Miss Minnie is up in her room, playing.”
Handing her luggage to Latonia, Charlene went upstairs. She found her daughter, cozy in pajamas, totally wrapped up in whatever she was doing at her little table, too absorbed to even see her mom come in.
“Minnie?”
Jasmine Henderson looked up with a bright smile, “Mommy!” Then, she quickly turned back to what she was doing.
Charlene wrapped her in a hug, only to be pushed away gently. “Mommy, I’m busy now.”
It had been two months since Charlene last saw Jasmine, and no amount of hugs seemed enough. She was eager to catch up with her.
Seeing her so focused, Charlene didn’t want to dampen her spirits. “Are you making a seashell necklace, Minnie?”
“Yes!” Jasmine perked up. “It’s for Ms. Hawkins’ birthday next week. Dad and I picked these shells and polished them ourselves. Aren’t they pretty?”
Charlene felt a lump in her throat, but Jasmine excitedly continued before she could speak, “Dad also ordered some other gifts for Ms. Hawkins. Tomorrow—”
Charlene felt a sudden pang in her chest and couldn't hold back. "Minnie... do you know what today is?"
“Huh? What?” Jasmine glanced up briefly before making her necklace again, “Mom, please, I mixed up the order of the beads now.”
Charlene let go, standing in silence for a long moment. Seeing Jasmine not even bothering to look up, she left the room without a word.

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
Enough already. This novel is dragging slowly. Updated with 2 chapters only. REALLY!!! Whoever the author or authors of this novel why is there a delay in penning more chapters? Here’s my question. In reading the comments from others does their opinions matters and/or make a difference? Are comments being monitored? Or is it only a tool allowing readers to blow off steam?...
Long wait to just get an upload of a couple of chapters. Very little progress in the story if any at all! For heaven's sake the story is 453 chapters so far with nothing or little change from where the story began! Show commitment to us your readers and followers please!...
Hi..its my 1st ever time commenting on any story. But seriously....i dont mean to come as rude but are u seriously thinking about the stroy or losing ur grip on the plot and characters...not updating...no story development...no commitment towards ur readers...u just uploaded 2 chapters after god know how long and still nothing to give to the story..if u dont want to write or simply cant then please dont...
The updates are so slow that I forgot the story for some time and just remembered it and read 20 chapters. The chapters are short and the story development is like a snail. 451 chapters and Charlene still couldn't break her image in other's eyes or dealth some serious damage to Vesta and her trash father....
It would be better to say right away that there are 10 chap/month...
Just give us updates already...
We're stuck at this chapter for over 2wks now Very annoying Thorne and vesta having the tune of their lives while Charlene is stuck More annoying...
Updating chapters to this novel is reminiscent of a sloth. There should be a disclaimer when this site states PUBLISH 10 chaps/day....
Seriously speaking story seems to loosing its grip.. no point in dragging.. it would be better if story gets wrapped within 600 chapters.....
Dragging and no real story. Mistress is having gala time and getting all attention and poor wife is getting neglected. The story is stuck and not moving...forget about the divorce let alone husband regretting. Boring book...
