That afternoon, Charlene and Gaylord were in the office discussing work when a knock sounded at the door. “Ms. Ross, Mr. Padgett has arrived.”
“Thank you, I’ll see him now.” Charlene turned to Gaylord. “I have some personal matters to take care of. Why don’t you get back to your work for now?”
Gaylord glanced at Padgett and his assistant, nodded politely, and stepped out.
Padgett and his assistant each carried a briefcase. Once Chester closed the door behind them, they began laying out stacks of documents—contracts, deeds, legal papers—and carefully checked every item.
When the inventory was finished and everything exchanged, Padgett said, “By the way, Thorne’s attorney asked me to pass on a message. Thorne said that if you find all of this too much trouble, if you don’t want to get involved with managing or making decisions for the company, and you’d rather sell off your shares, he’d be happy to buy them from you.”
Charlene’s expression didn’t change. “I understand. Thank you.”
With nothing more to discuss, Padgett and his assistant soon left.
Charlene looked at the piles of paperwork and legal documents, then set the briefcases aside and went straight back to work.
Half an hour later, Stewart dropped by.
He stepped into her office, ready to speak, but his eyes immediately landed on the two briefcases by her feet. “Huh? What’s all this?” he asked in surprise.
“The property deeds from my divorce settlement with Thorne,” she replied.
“All of them? That’s a lot of real estate—worth over a billion, at least. According to your agreement, he had two years after the divorce to settle it all. But you haven’t even finalized the divorce yet, and he’s already wrapped everything up? That’s fast.”
Charlene nodded. “Everything’s here. Not a single document missing.”
Stewart gave a low chuckle. “He’s in quite a rush, isn’t he?”
So it was all settled already. No wonder Thorne had reached out about finalizing the divorce paperwork so soon.
After a brief pause, Stewart asked, “And the cash? Did he transfer it to your account too?”

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...
