Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 217
Chapter 217
Charlene said, “You guys go ahead and eat. I’m not coming.”
Jasmine looked surprised. “Mom, you’re not coming?”
“Nope.” Charlene gently patted Jasmine’s head. “You all have a great time.”
“Oh… okay.”
Charlene gave a soft smile, said no more, and turned to leave without looking back.
Thorne watched her go, but instead of calling her back, he turned to Jasmine and said, “Let’s head out too.”
“Alright.”
No sooner had they gotten into the car than Thorne’s phone rang.
It was Irma Henderson calling.
As soon as he picked up, Irma’s voice came through, tense and biting. “Did you seriously start a project with the Hawkins and Spencer families at the company?”
Thorne simply replied, “Yes,” with a slight chuckle. “You just found out?”
“You!” Irma was even more frustrated. “What is this supposed to mean? Are you planning to divorce Charlene?”
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so blatant about it.
By roping in the Hawkins and Spencer families into the Henderson Group, it was obvious he wasn’t worried about her finding out. This meant his mind was made up.
Before he could respond, Irma cut in, “I won’t allow it! You can start the project, I won’t oppose that, but you need to replace the people involved. If you don’t, then I will-*
“Grandma,” Thorne said, his tone unchanged, “I fulfilled the conditions you set before the marriage. Now, please respect your end of the bargain and don’t interfere with my decisions.”
In other words, the Hawkins and Spencer families were off–limits to her.
“You…”
Since Thorne had taken over the Henderson Group, the company had been thriving.
Over the years, the shareholders and key management understood that following Thorne’s lead almost always
meant success.
If she tried to challenge Thorne, the other shareholders would likely be the first to oppose her.
In short, the Henderson Group needed Thorne more than Thorne needed the Henderson Group.
Threatening him with the company was pointless.
And using family ties as leverage?
As Thorne pointed out, marrying Charlene was already a compromise on his part.
Irma knew he was never someone who would continuously back down for others.
Once he had what he wanted, he remained true to himself.
If pushed too hard…
Irma’s silence meant she had conceded. Thorne broke the silence, “Have you eaten?”
Irma abruptly ended the call.
Thorne looked at his phone and chuckled.

Chapter 21
Jasmine, curious, asked, “What happened?”
Thorne casually put the phone away. “Your great–grandmother’s upset.”
“Did you upset her?”
“Yep.”

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...
