Chapter 296
The next morning.
After finishing her breakfast, Charlene went upstairs to find Jasmine on a video call with Thorne.
Spotting her mom, Jasmine looked up and shouted, “Mom!”
“Hey,” Charlene replied, turning on her computer.
On the other end of the call, Thorne asked, “What’s the plan for today?”
Jasmine, sprawled out on the bed, beamed with excitement. “I want to watch a movie! Mom’s taking me to see a movie at noon!”
Charlene was engrossed in reviewing the notes she’d organized the day before.
A moment later, Jasmine came over with the phone. “Mom, Dad wants to talk to you.”
Charlene paused, took the phone, and glanced at Thorne’s face on the screen. She wasn’t interested in a video chat, so she placed the phone face up on the desk, pointing the camera toward the ceiling. “What’s up?”
Thorne said, “I appreciate you taking care of Minnie for a while.”
Charlene didn’t reply, her eyes still fixed on her computer. She typed away, filling in the gaps from yesterday’s brainstorming session, and asked, “Anything else?”
“No,” Thorne replied, then added, “Happy New Year.”
Charlene mumbled an acknowledgment and ended the call, handing the phone back to Jasmine.
As it neared noon and Charlene was about to take Jasmine out, her phone rang. It was Stewart.
She chuckled and answered, only to hear Stewart’s hushed voice, “Guess who I just ran into again?”
Charlene paused, immediately knowing who he was referring to.
Before she could respond, Stewart saw Thorne and Vesta approaching and looking in his direction.
Stewart sighed, “Well, they’re coming over. Gotta go.”
“Alright,” Charlene replied calmly.
Barely had she hung up when Thorne and Vesta reached Stewart.
“Mr. Ferguson, off somewhere?” Thorne inquired.
Stewart didn’t reply directly, instead offering a thin smile. “Mr. Henderson, Ms. Hawkins, we’re not that close. Next time you see me, feel free to pretend you didn’t.”
Vesta chuckled, “Mr. Ferguson, you really are amusing.”
Stewart was about to retort when Vesta noticed his suitcase. “Heading abroad for a vacation, Mr. Ferguson?”
Stewart gave a dry laugh. “Sorry, none of your business.”
With that, he didn’t wait for another word, rolling his suitcase out of the VIP lounge at the airport.
Once he’d put some distance between them, Stewart called Charlene again. “What’re you up to?”
Charlene had just changed her clothes and replied, “Getting ready to head out for a movie.”
“Sounds like a good plan. Going by yourself?” he asked.
“With Minnie.”
Stewart paused, “I thought she was spending the holiday with the Hendersons? How come she’s with you

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...
