That night, when Charlene got home, she found Jasmine already fast asleep in her room.
After her shower, Charlene slipped under the covers. Almost immediately, Jasmine instinctively rolled over, nestling into her arms, and mumbled sleepily, “Mommy, you’re back?”
“I’m here. Go back to sleep,” Charlene whispered.
There was no reply.
Charlene glanced down and realized Jasmine had already drifted off again.
The next morning, Stewart headed out for a business meeting, while Charlene joined a group of engineers for a trip to The Henderson Group.
Charlene spent most of the morning deep in conversation about technical matters. When the discussion finally wound down, she glanced back and noticed Thorne standing nearby, quietly listening to her.
She paused, drew her attention back to the group, and said, “There are actually a few outstanding papers in academia on what I just mentioned. Would you like me to recommend some titles?”
“Yes, please!” came the enthusiastic response.
Charlene rattled off the names and authors of the papers, then turned to gather her things—only to meet Vesta’s gaze.
Thorne noticed her arrival and walked over. “When did you get here?”
Charlene looked away, leaving Vesta to answer.
With a small smile, Vesta replied, “Just now.”
In reality, she’d been there two or three minutes already.
She’d arrived just in time to catch Thorne and his technical team listening intently as Charlene explained some complex concepts. She only saw Thorne in profile, and though the angle wasn’t perfect, it was clear that as he watched Charlene, there was a look of genuine admiration in his eyes.
The realization made her smile falter for a moment.
It was the first time she’d ever seen Thorne look at Charlene that way.
But… that didn’t necessarily mean anything. Or so she told herself.
Later that afternoon, Vesta had more business at The Henderson Group and stopped by again.
This time, she went straight to Thorne’s office.
He wasn’t there yet.
She was about to sit down when she noticed several books stacked neatly on his desk. Curious, she picked one up and saw it was an AI journal. Flipping through, she found an article that had been carefully marked.

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...
