Chapter 116
Sapphire Springs Resort was sprawling, and Charlene had no clue where Thorne and the gang were.
Descending the stairs, she found no sign of them.
The day hadn’t turned to night just yet, so Charlene, with the help of two staff members, decided to head up the hill.
The air was crisp, but Charlene was bundled up tight and hardly felt the cold.
*Up on the hill, she let the breeze wash over her as she picked apples, a simple activity that eased her mind.
In no time, they had managed to fill two or three crates with apples.
Instead of heading back immediately, Charlene took a moment to admire the sunset, which was particularly stunning that evening.
That’s when she heard footsteps and a child’s voice.
Turning, she found herself face–to–face with Granger.
Granger, equally surprised to see her, paused for a moment.
The voice in the video called out excitedly, “It’s that lady!”
It turned out, Granger was video calling Daisy, showing her the apple trees and promising to pick some for her the next day.
He hadn’t expected to run into Charlene, who had decided to venture up the hill.
Even though they had met a few times before and Granger had lent her a hand, Charlene still felt a distance she wasn’t keen on bridging.
Her face hardened when she saw him, but softened again when she heard Daisy’s voice.
Granger noticed the change in her expression.
He didn’t approach her right away, instead asking, “Daisy wants to talk to you, is that okay?”
Leaving the convalescent home that day, Charlene had felt a profound heaviness, a suffocating sadness.
Encountering them, though it seemed like Daisy wanted her company, Charlene felt it was Daisy who was offering comfort, helping her breathe through the emotional turmoil.
With that thought, she nodded.
Granger extended his phone to her, keeping a respectful distance of a few yards.
After chatting with Daisy, who revealed she was out with her grandmother and couldn’t join Granger at
Sapphire Springs Resort, Charlene shared her enjoyment of the sunset. After a good ten minutes, she handed the phone back to Granger.
After saying goodbye to Daisy, Granger offered a simple “Thank you.”
“No need.”
By then, dusk had almost fully settled.
L
But the hill was lit by street lamps, making the descent easy.
Without further exchange, she turned to head down the hill, Granger following silently behind.
They reached the resort without exchanging a word and were about to enter when they ran into Vesta.
Vesta watched them show up one after another from the hill, her lips tightening into a thin line as she paused.

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...
