Chapter 109
Charlene put her phone down, trotted downstairs, and told Irma that Thorne had dinner plans already
But Thorne didn’t come home that night.
The next morning, when Irma found out Thorne hadn’t returned, she was a bit ticked off, “Really, Thorne? No matter how busy work is, can’t he find time to come home?”
Charlene just smiled and didn’t bite. She knew Thorne could make time if he really wanted to. After all, everyone needs a break.
She remembered Vesta’s voice on the phone last night. She figured that was why he didn’t come home…
He probably found somewhere better to be.
PrimeStar had just finalized their major projects for the next two years,
Still, Stewart compiled their ideas and sent them over to Kenton Wagner, hoping for some feedback.
Kenton was always swamped and unpredictable, so Charlene and Stewart half expected a reply in a few days, or even weeks.
Surprisingly, he called that very afternoon.
“Not bad,” he said.
Getting the nod from Kenton boosted Charlene and Stewart’s confidence in their project. Given his tough standards, his “not bad” was pretty much high praise.
“You’ve covered the historical foundations as well as recent developments in Al quite well,” Kenton continued, clearly addressing Charlene.
She was about to tear
eup but before she could respond, Kenton added, “But you’ve been slacking. In the pursui
bf knowledge, you’re either progressing or regressing, and frankly, you’ve been backsliding.”
“I understand, Professor. I’ll catch up on what I’ve missed these past years,” Charlene quickly replied.
“Good.”
Kenton was always concise in his feedback.
Seeing a rare opening in Kenton’s schedule, Charlene couldn’t help asking, “Professor, are you free for dinner tonight? I’d love to catch up.”
Stewart, who hadn’t had a meal with Kenton in a long time, nodded eagerly, “Yeah, Professor, are you free?”
“I have plans already. No time,” Kenton replied flatly.
“Ah?” Stewart was visibly disappointed. So was Charlene.
She was about to ask when Kenton might be free for a future dinner, but before she could, he added, “I have an appointment with Thorne.”
Charlene froze. Stewart paused too, then whispered to Charlene, “Why would Mr. Henderson want to meet with the Professor? Can he tell us why?”
“He said he wants to introduce someone to me.”
With that, Kenton ended the call.
Stewart looked at Charlene, asking, “Your husband’s introduction… Could it be Vesta?”
During their recent interaction with the Hawkins family, they learned that the Hawkins also ran a tech firm.
Vesta’s interest in their company was primarily for its programming language, CUAP, which everyone assumed. was developed under their professor’s guidance.

low that Vesta couldn’t join their company, it made sense she’d seek out their professor for QUAP research, or eve to become his student.
That realization made Stewart curse, “Damn!”

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...
