Chapter 102
Saving so, Irma shot a glance at her grandson, a look that said more than her words ever could.
Unfazed, her grandson didn’t need another nudge from Irma to start serving Charlene some food.
Charlene murmured a “Thanks.”
Irma went on about the bunch of vitamins she brought over for them, promising to pick some out for Charlene and Thorne after dinner to help them “recharge.”
* Charlene couldn’t really say no, so she just nodded away.
Back when she was younger, Irma really nailed down how to make the perfect soup. After dinner, she insisted on personally supervising the preparation of a special nourishing broth for Charlene and Thorne. When Charlene offered to help, Irma gently but firmly pushed her out of the kitchen.
So, Charlene found herself settling down on the couch.
Jasmine and Thorne were there too, each absorbed in their own world – one scrolling through her phone, the other fidgeting with a Rubik’s Cube.
The room was silent, the air filled with unspoken words.
Right then, Stewart messaged Charlene. She checked his message and replied immediately, so engrossed that she didn’t notice Irma coming out of the kitchen.
Thorne, on the other hand, had already put away his phone.
Charlene quickly put her phone down. “Grandma.”
Looking at her family, Irma sighed. “You all…” She didn’t know what else to say, so she sat next to Charlene and asked, “What’s keeping you busy?”
Just work stuff…”
Irma huffed, pointing at Thorne, “You could talk to him about work stuff. Or is he just furniture here?”
Charlene stopped herself and didn’t mention that she had already quit her job at The Henderson Group.
Thorne was in a good mood, and when he heard Irma speak, he also chose not to mention Charlene’s resignation–likely so Irma wouldn’t suggest she go back to The Henderson Group.
Soon, Irma changed the subject and suggested a walk in the garden with Charlene and Thorne.
After the walk, Irma announced she was off to shower and rest, reminding them, “Make sure to have the broth when it’s ready.”
Charlene was about to agree when she realized what Irma meant by staying over. She looked at Thorne, puzzled.
Thorne seemed to understand her confusion and, once Irma was a bit away, he explained, “Grandma said she’ll be staying here for a while.”
“What?” Charlene was taken aback.
Without further explanation, Thorne said, “I’ll be in the study,” and went upstairs.
Jasmine came running down then, dragging Charlene upstairs to keep her company with the Rubik’s Cube.
After spending over an hour with Jasmine, Latonia came with the prepared broth. “Ma’am, the broth is ready.”
Handing one bowl to Charlene, she added, “Lady Irma said to have it while it’s hot.”
Okay, got it,” Charlene replied, taking the bowl.
After Latonia left, Charlene made sure Jasmine got ready for bed, considering Irma’s stay meant she couldn’t

Bleep in Jasmine’s room anymore.
Once
Once Jasmine was bathed, Charlene headed back to the master bedroom. Thorne wasn’t there probably still in the study.
She checked Stewart’s messages, replied to a few but was stumped on how to respond to others.
Thinking it over, she went to the bathroom.
Coming out in her pajamas after her shower, she realized she forgot her sleeping pants and the clothes she changed out of were too wet from washing her face.
Thinking Thorne was still away, she hesitated for a moment before stepping out of the bathroom.
But the moment she did, she found herself locking eyes with Thorne.

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...
