Chapter 53
Raleigh left PrimeStar and immediately dialed Vesta.
Vesta asked, “Charlene got a job at PrimeStar?”
“Yeah.” Raleigh found it odd. “Didn’t you know?”
Wasn’t Charlene the reason she got pushed out to make room at PrimeStar?
“No idea.” She thought Stewart didn’t hire her to give Charlene a leg up.
So, had Charlene left the Henderson Group since she had joined PrimeStar?
‘Raleigh paused, “What were those personal reasons you mentioned?”
Vesta didn’t feel like going into detail. “Just some personal beef”
“But-”
“What’s up?”
He got it wrong. His departure had nothing to do with Vesta.
Thinking this, Raleigh couldn’t help but ask, “How capable is Charlene? I heard she didn’t even get her PhD, She…”
“She didn’t just get her PhD. She only has a bachelor’s. She never went to grad school.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.” Vesta’s tone was icy.
It was unexpected that Charlene had left the Henderson Group. But what surprised Vesta even more was that Charlene didn’t consider furthering her education after leaving the Henderson Group. Instead, she got a job at another company through backdoor connections. She lacked ambition and vision.
Raleigh asked, “Vesta, what are your plans now?”
Vesta said, “I’ve got a big race ahead and must spend much time practicing. I’ll think about work stuff later.”
“Oh, I see…”
*Yesta was good at everything, and Raleigh knew that. Sometimes, he wondered if she could keep up with her professional knowledge
with all her activities. But then, knowing how exceptional Vesta was, he felt she was in a league of her own.
He figured if Vesta dared to do it, she must have had her reasons.
Meanwhile, over at Henderson Group, Thorne was going through some files and without even looking up, asked Coy, “Get me a coffee, will you?”
“Right away.”
It was Sunny’s first time making coffee for Thorne, so she was excited and nervous. Following Charlene’s instructions to the letter, she carefully prepared the coffee, which Coy then delivered to Thorne.
Thorne set aside his files, picked up the coffee to stir gently, and brought it to his lips, only to hesitate. Something about the smell was off.
He hesitated, then took a small sip, only to set it down immediately. “Brew it again.”
Coy paused, “Okay.”
Sunny was puzzled. “Brew it again? Too much sugar, or was the taste not good? But I followed Charlene’s steps exactly and measured the sugar. It shouldn’t be wrong.”
Coy looked helpless. “I’m not sure, either.”
Sunny had to brew another cup. Perhaps due to her nerves, Thorne didn’t even taste this one. He sniffed it and set it aside, asking Coy, “What’s going on?”
Coy explained, “Sunny might be nervous since it’s her first time making coffee for you, so she might not have gotten the heat right…” Thorne frowned. “Sunny? Who’s Sunny? Where’s Charlene?”
Coy was shocked. “Charlene has left the company. Didn’t you know?”
Thorne remained silent. He genuinely didn’t know. He was aware of the incident about Charlene’s work attitude irking Coy, leading to
talks of her dismissal.
But-
“When did she leave?”

Last Thursday.”
“Gofit.”
Charlene had left, but it was likely for a few days only. He guessed it wouldn’t be long before she came running back.

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...
