Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 430

Charlene and Turner traded references and insights, their conversation lively and quick-witted.

Anyone with half a brain could see it: the more Turner talked with Charlene, the more animated and genuinely delighted he became. In fact, as their discussion went deeper, Turner was even beginning to notice the gaps in his own knowledge—a realization that oddly enough, thrilled him.

He couldn't help blurting out, “I knew my instincts were right, Ross. You’re even more impressive than I thought.”

But who was Turner? He was the kind of man whose reputation spoke for itself. For Charlene, so young, to possess such a wealth of knowledge—and for Turner himself to openly admit she had outshone him—well, that was enough to leave everyone listening in around them utterly stunned.

Only Stewart managed a subtle, knowing smile.

Vesta stood quietly off to the side, listening intently.

Leah, on the other hand, had absolutely no idea what Turner and Charlene were discussing. After a while, as their conversation showed no sign of winding down, her patience began to fray. “What could they possibly have to talk about for this long?” she muttered. “It’s like they’ll never finish.”

Vesta said nothing, but her grip on her glass grew so tight her knuckles turned white.

It was true that the AI field back home had made huge strides—figures like Professor Hancock and Professor Douglas were well-respected even internationally. But in terms of pure expertise, there was still a noticeable gap compared to people like Turner or Kevitt Smith.

When Charlene had attended the St. Aurelia’s University symposium, Vesta had thought that maybe, following Stewart around, Charlene had managed to pick up a few things. But now… she wasn’t so sure.

Charlene’s depth of knowledge was simply staggering.

To be able to hold her own—no, to actually outshine Mr. Turner in a direct conversation—how could that possibly be something she’d achieved in less than a year?
