Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 

Vesta watched the scene unfold, not really bothered by it. 

Granger’s softened attitude towards Charlene was purely for the sake of maintaining good relations with 

PrimeStar. 

Moran shared the same thoughts as Vesta. 

This marked the third time Jacques had laid eyes on Charlene. 

He casually remarked, “So, that lady is Granger’s girlfriend, huh?” 

“Whoa,” Moran almost choked on his coffee. “What girlfriend? They’re not even a thing. Don’t jump to conclusions.” 

Jacques had just arrived in Starfall and was clueless about the dynamics. 

Moran and Vesta simply assumed Jacques thought Charlene, with her striking looks, made a good pair with Granger, hence his assumption. 

“Alright then,” Jacques shrugged. 

Earlier, Granger had seemed entirely engrossed in the lady after she appeared. Jacques figured they must be 

an item. 

Yet, even if they weren’t an official couple, Granger clearly had an interest in her, right? 

Granger, aware of Vesta and Moran’s glances, glanced at his watch. With the meeting time approaching, he bid Charlene a quick goodbye but remembered something. “You’re not going to the Neural Nexus Tech gala in a few days, right?” 

Charlene confirmed, “Right.” 

Having received her answer, Granger felt a slight pang in his chest. He nodded and turned away without further 

comment. 

As Granger returned to Moran’s side, Thorne arrived. 

His eyes briefly landed on Charlene, who was busy at work. But he quickly averted his gaze and said to Moran and Granger, “It’s about time. Let’s head upstairs for the meeting.” 

Granger noticed Thorne’s indifference towards Charlene. He lowered his gaze. 

Before heading upstairs, Thorne asked Jacques, “Been to my office yet?” 

“Not yet.” 

“I’ve got some snacks set up for you. If you get bored, feel free to drop by and grab a bite.” 

Though only a few days had passed, Thorne and Jacques seemed to have struck a good rapport. 

After the lunchtime meeting, the Neural Nexus Tech executives gathered for a meal. Vesta and Jacques, though not part of the executive team, rode with Thorne to the venue due to their close ties. 

Granger, glancing up at the Neural Nexus Tech building, recalled Charlene’s presence and asked Moran, “When are Thorne and Charlene finalizing their divorce?” 

Moran, assuming Granger was merely curious about Thorne and Vesta’s relationship, replied, “It could’ve been done earlier, but there were issues with a company share transfer under Thorne’s name. Once that’s sorted, it should be finalized soon.” 

Granger nodded, “Got it.” 

Later, Charlene had lunch with the Neural Nexus Tech staff in their cafeteria. After a brief break, she resumed. work. By mid–afternoon, she wrapped up at Neural Nexus Tech and headed back to PrimeStar.

Chapter 

On the day of The Harden Group gala, Charlene and Stewart finished up at work before driving over together. 

When Granger heard they had arrived, he went out to greet them. However, the moment he laid eyes on Charlene, he stopped in his tracks. She wore a stunning blue–violet off–shoulder gown that accentuated her porcelain skin and graceful demeanor, making her look more captivating than ever. 

Granger took it all in, thinking she looked more enchanting than he’d ever seen her before. 

In just a couple of seconds, he masked his thoughts and approached them politely, “Mr. Ferguson, Ms. Ross.”
