It wasn’t just them—every other bidder, after spotting Charlene and Stewart, had more or less realized their own efforts had been for nothing.
And that’s exactly how things turned out.
While everyone waited, the results of the bid were announced surprisingly quickly. The winner of the Starfall smart transportation project was none other than PrimeStar.
Charlene and Stewart weren’t the least bit surprised. They had more important things to do and had no intention of lingering here.
As Charlene and Stewart walked past, not even sparing them a glance, Henley and Vesta’s faces, already sour, grew even darker.
Since relocating to Starfall, the Hawkins Group had managed to stay afloat thanks to Thorne’s connections. Because of Thorne and Vesta, plenty of people in local business circles knew about their company.
But that was pretty much where it ended—inside the circle. They still hadn’t managed to build any real recognition outside of it.
Previously, the problem had always been their lack of competitive technology. Now, after finally making a breakthrough, this smart city transportation project had seemed like their ticket to broader recognition. If Hawkins Technology could land this contract, their reputation and standing would skyrocket.
Everyone at their company had poured over a month of hard work and resources into this bid, convinced the project was as good as theirs. But now—
After Charlene and Stewart left, Henley and Vesta just sat there, unmoving for a long while.
The Hawkins and Spencer families were both following the bidding closely.
It wasn’t long before Leah couldn’t hold back and called Vesta. “Sis, did they announce the results yet? Did we win?”
Vesta’s voice was cool. “No.”
“No?” Leah frowned. “How is that possible? I mean, sure, there were a few strong contenders, but we—”
“PrimeStar got it.”

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...
