As she rounded the corner of the lobby, Vesta and Thorne's friends appeared at the end of the hallway.
Charlene instinctively stepped aside and heard Jasmine exclaim joyfully, "Ms. Hawkins!" and dash forward, leaping into Vesta's embrace.
Charlene settled into a couch nearby, her back to them, using the potted plants and the back of the chair as a shield.
"Minnie, you're back in town, too?"
"Because you were coming back, Ms. Hawkins, Dad and I couldn't bear the thought of being away from you. Dad wrapped up his work early, and we flew back! We made it the day before your birthday so we wouldn't miss it! This is a necklace Dad and I made for you, Ms. Hawkins. Happy Birthday!"
"Wow, Minnie, you and your dad made this? It must have taken much effort. You're talented, sweetie. I love it. Thank you, Minnie!"
"As long as you like it, Ms. Hawkins." Jasmine hugged Vesta, whining playfully, "I haven't seen you in a week, and I've missed you so much. I couldn't have stayed in Goldland if it weren't for our daily phone calls."
"I missed you too, Minnie."
Suddenly, footsteps approached from the side.
Charlene froze. It was Thorne.
Even without seeing him, Charlene was sure just by the sound of his footsteps. After six or seven years of marriage, she had grown accustomed to waiting for him daily.
Thorne's steps, just like his personality, were measured and steady, exuding an air of calm confidence. Even when interacting with his close ones in the Henderson family, he maintained this composure as if nothing could faze him.
She had thought nothing in the world could disturb his peace. But then Vesta entered the scene, proving to be the exception.
Before Charlene could ponder further, she heard Jasmine say, "Daddy!"

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...
