Chapter 50
Charlene didn’t respond right away. She patted Sally’s head gently and said, “Can you keep it a secret that I brought you here today? Don tell Minnie, okay?”
Sally nodded eagerly. “Gotcha.”
The last time she hugged Charlene, Minnie had been all bristly about it. Truth be told, Sally was a bit scared of her and didn’t dare talk to her much. And it seemed Minnie still held a grudge because each time she saw Sally, she would puff up and glare.
Ahead, Thorne, Vesta, and Jasmine looked like the picture–perfect family. Charlene watched them and couldn’t help but think it was beautiful. She shifted her focus away.
After Thorne and Vesta left, Charlene finally exited the car
with Sally.
Jasmine’s teacher knew Charlene was Jasmine’s mom.
She saw Jasmine dropped off by her dad and another woman and thought Charlene was busy with something else. But then, seeing Charlene holding Sally’s hand, she was momentarily baffled. “Ms. Ross, you and Sally…”
“Mrs. Sullivan had an emergency and asked me to drop off Sally,” Charlene explained.
Oh, I see,” the teacher sighed in relief and added cautiously, “It’s just that… Jasmine just arrived at school, too, but…”
“I know.” Charlene gave a comforting smile.
The teacher was still confused, but seeing Charlene seemed to be in the know and not bothered, she didn’t press further. Leaving the preschool, Charlene barely got into the car when Stewart called, “What time will you get here?”
“In about ten minutes.”
“Okay.”
When Charlene arrived at PrimeStar, Stewart had been waiting for her at the entrance.
He greeted her with open arms, “Welcome back.”
Charlene smiled and shared a quick hug with him.
Meanwhile, Raleigh was leaning against a window in the company’s hallway and on a call.
He caught sight of the entrance and was instantly captivated by Charlene’s appearance. However, he quickly averted his gaze as Vesta’s call came through.
He chuckled, initiating the conversation, “Vesta, good morning. When will you be arriving at the office?”
Whatever Vesta said changed Raleigh’s expression.
Soon after, Raleigh returned to his desk, and his colleagues noticed he seemed off. “Raleigh, what’s up with you? Are you unwell?” Raleigh shook his head silently.
As people started pouring into the office, someone whispered excitedly, “Did you see? Mr. Ferguson brought a real knockout to the office.”
“Is she that stunning? Don’t pull my leg!”
“She is, truly. She’s radiant, even more gorgeous than a movie star!”
Raleigh’s mind immediately returned to the beautiful woman who had embraced Stewart at the entrance.
Then, another colleague interrupted, “And guess what? I heard she’s joining our company today as a new employee!”
Raleigh paused at this revelation. Vesta was his junior in college. After learning she was interested in working at PrimeStar, he immediately recommended her to Stewart, who seemed quite impressed with her at their first meeting.
It was supposed to be Vesta’s first day. He had called Vesta earlier to ask when she’d arrive, only to hear Stewart had suddenly dropped her for “personal reasons.”
As for what those personal reasons were…
Just as Raleigh was pondering this, Stewart walked in with Charlene by his side.

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
Stewart and Charlene will the best match, both power players!...
Can't wait to read where Charlene will start another relationship... God for is she gets back with Thorne... She needs to be with York or Gaylord (to annoy vesta) or granger (to annoy Thorne)...
I know its ur story and u obviously have ur own plot line and all and have every right to build the story as u like but what writer provide isnt just entertainment, but they shape the narrative of young minds. So I would say that romanticing cheating is, or rather THORNE'S behaviour, wrong for all the reasons..give york a chance ..that will be way more satisfying...again all of this is just my point of view but if charlene and thorne get back together, its not the story im looking for...
Hey...please dont ever make Charlene and thorne get back together no matter what...he simply doesn't deserve it....no matter the reason or plot twist behind the way he treated his legally wedded wife....whether he actually slept with vesta or not....just his emotional cheating...not repecting his spouse....not caring enough to actually get to know the person his wife was....and actually distancing his child from her mother and encouraging her to bond with the mistress are all the biggest RED FLAGS... when a person enters a contract....he must uphold it no questions asked...its not like if ur partner isnt good enough, ur allowed to cheat..allowed to let a 3rd person in-between....if ur not satisfied with ur partner then u can get a divorce...whats the point of all the wealth, power and brilliance of mind when the ML cant even get his head around this simple fact...So, its fine it he regrets, but charlene shouldn't be with him in any case.....
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...
