Later that afternoon, after Vesta wrapped up her work, she thought about inviting Thorne out for dinner. She called his phone several times, but each attempt went unanswered. Finally, she decided to ring Thorne’s assistant, Coy.
As soon as Coy picked up, Vesta asked, “I haven’t been able to reach Thorne. Is he still busy?”
Coy seemed surprised. “Didn’t you know? The boss flew overseas on business this afternoon.”
Vesta paused, caught off guard.
She honestly hadn’t known.
Thorne hadn’t mentioned a word to her.
“Was the trip a last-minute decision?” she pressed.
“Yes, it was.”
Even if the trip had come up suddenly, it wouldn’t have taken long for him to send her a text or give her a quick call.
But he hadn’t said anything at all...
The thought left her unsettled.
After a moment’s hesitation, Vesta grabbed her purse and left her home office, calling Jasmine as she walked.
Jasmine was sprawled out in the living room, piecing together a puzzle. Seeing Vesta’s name flash on her phone, she answered cheerfully, “Ms. Hawkins?”
“Hi, sweetheart,” Vesta replied, her voice gentle. “Is Minnie home yet?”
“She’s home,” Jasmine confirmed.
Vesta smiled, “Did you have fun at the parent-teacher conference with your dad today?”
Jasmine giggled, “Ms. Hawkins, you got it mixed up! My mom came to the conference, not my dad.”
At the mention of Charlene, Vesta’s smile faded slightly, her tone softening. “Oh, I see...”

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...
