“No sign of him at all?”
“Exactly.” Another colleague chimed in, “That’s why a lot of us think Ms. Ross must be divorced already. I mean, it’s been more than half a year—if she wasn’t, how could she go this long without ever mentioning her husband?”
“Yeah, that makes sense.”
If that’s the case, it did sound plausible.
If Charlene was still married, how could York openly, almost brazenly, pursue her like this?
Still, Gaylord couldn’t shake off the unease inside him.
He’d never considered that Charlene might have already been married.
Noticing how lost in thought he looked, Charlene glanced up from her desk. “Something on your mind?”
Gaylord wanted to blurt out, “I heard you’ve been married before—is that true?”
But peppering your boss with personal questions at work, especially more than once, was crossing a line. He caught himself just in time.
“It’s nothing,” he replied, quickly looking away.
Later that afternoon, Charlene received a phone call.
Right after she hung up, just before everyone was packing up to leave, she turned to Stewart. “I’ll probably come in later tomorrow—maybe after lunch. Can you take my place at the morning meeting?”
“Of course.” He studied her for a moment, then asked, “Everything okay?”
“My mother’s having some tests done at the hospital tomorrow. I want to go with her.”
Stewart had no idea Sybil Ross’s health had worsened; he figured it was just a routine check-up. “Not a problem. Go ahead—I’ve got things covered here.”
Charlene nodded and headed out for the evening.
The next morning, Charlene, her sister Helena, and Maisie arrived at the hospital bright and early.

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...
