Kendal didn't even bother replying to him. When Thorne made his comment, Charlene didn't respond either.
No one seemed eager to engage with him, but Thorne didn't mind. He noticed Charlene's coffee was nearly gone, so he picked up the pot and refilled her cup, as well as Kendal's.
Throughout the brunch, whether sipping on their Americanos or discussing over the club sandwiches, Charlene mostly chatted with Kendal and Jasmine, leaving Thorne out of the conversation.
It wasn't clear if Charlene was intentionally ignoring him, or if Thorne himself wasn't interested in talking to her.
Around 2 p.m., as they were preparing to leave the Underwood family home, Charlene suddenly realized they had spent nearly four hours in the same room without exchanging a single word.
Kendal had noticed this too.
Thorne wasn't about to change that, and Charlene had already moved on emotionally. Thorne hadn't invited them over for matchmaking purposes; he knew they had nothing to say to each other and he had nothing more to add.
As they were getting ready to head back home, Jasmine looked up at Charlene and asked, "Mom, are you coming home today?" Before Charlene could respond, Jasmine added, "You haven't been home in a long time."
Kendal paused, saying nothing, merely sighing softly under his breath.
Thorne remained silent too.
Charlene gently stroked Jasmine's cheek and said, "I have some things to take care of, so I won't be coming home tonight."
"Oh…" Jasmine's disappointment was evident. She then asked, "So are you going to Grandma's or traveling for work again? Last time I couldn't reach you, I went to Grandma Ross's place, but you weren't there either. Grandma said you were on a business trip."
Charlene hadn't realized Jasmine had gone to the Ross family over the weekend.
Indeed, she was planning to go back to the Ross's for dinner with Helena Ross and the others.
Imagining Jasmine trying to reach her, only to end up going to her great-grandma's house out of longing, Charlene paused before saying, "I'll be heading to your great-grandma's later. Would you like to come with me?"
"Yes!"

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...
