A few days after attending the International Artificial Intelligence Conference, Charlene found herself heading to a hotel for her aunt's stepson's wedding reception after work.
As she stepped into the elevator, just as the doors were about to close, she heard someone call out, "Hold the door!"
A hand shot out to stop the elevator from closing, and when Charlene glanced up to see who it was, her eyes widened slightly in recognition.
It was Jacques Hawkins. He seemed just as surprised to see her. They had only met a few times before, with their last encounter being a couple of months back, but he remembered Charlene well.
He nodded at her in greeting just as Katie Hawkins appeared at the elevator entrance. Katie, too, seemed taken aback when she saw Charlene, but quickly averted her gaze and stepped inside, acting as if she didn’t recognize her.
Jacques reached to press the elevator button but noticed the 18th floor was already lit. Seeing Charlene as a familiar face, he turned back with a smile, clearly intending to chat. However, Charlene looked away, her expression cool and distant.
Jacques hesitated for a moment, sensing her reluctance to talk, and decided to remain silent. He wrapped an arm around Katie's shoulder, who chuckled softly and patted his hand affectionately. Charlene observed them quietly, saying nothing.
Before long, the elevator reached the 18th floor. As the doors opened, a wave of chatter and laughter flooded in. Following Jacques and Katie out, Charlene was greeted by the sight of a bustling lobby. Henley Hawkins and Maureen Spencer, both dressed to the nines, were stationed at the welcome desk, greeting guests arriving for Katie's birthday celebration.

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...
