Stewart sat with his legs crossed, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. "Turned into what, exactly? Smitten by charm, or blind to right and wrong?"
Both, if you ask me.
Of course, Dalton didn't say that out loud.
Stewart seemed to read his thoughts. "Funny," he chuckled. "I have a feeling that the one who's blind and smitten isn't me, but someone else entirely."
Before Dalton could respond, Stewart continued, "And as for who my mentor values the most, well, it's not me. You flatter me too much, Mr. Ramirez."
Dalton was taken aback. Even bringing up Kenton Wagner hadn't fazed Stewart.
Stewart wasn't about to let Dalton off easy. "If you feel the need to stand up for Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Ramirez, you're welcome to terminate our contract. Of course, you'd have to compensate PrimeStar for any losses."
Dalton thought he was speaking reasonably. But Stewart was clearly hostile, even suggesting ending their business relationship.
It was absurd.
Dalton pressed his lips together, trying to maintain his composure. "Mr. Ferguson, there's no need to act on impulse—"
Stewart met his gaze steadily. "I'm not acting on impulse. I'm quite serious."
Dalton was momentarily stunned.
Stewart's eyes were cold and detached, but his expression was serious. In that moment, Dalton realized Stewart meant every word.
Was it really necessary to go this far just because he spoke on Vesta's behalf?
The more serious Stewart seemed, the more Dalton felt he was being unreasonable.
Dalton tightened his lips, searching for words, but Stewart had already lost interest in the conversation.
Standing up, Stewart said coolly, "Since you're not here to discuss business, Mr. Ramirez, I won't keep you. Chester, show him out."
Dalton's face darkened. "Mr. Ferguson!"
Stewart's lips curled into a mocking smile. "You're awfully invested in someone else's girlfriend, Mr. Ramirez. I wonder if Mr. Henderson is aware of your concern for Mr. Hawkins?"
Dalton paused, lowering his gaze, his tone softening. "Mr. Hawkins and I have a business relationship. She seemed genuinely eager to resolve things with you, so I thought I'd try to mediate."

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...
