Chapter 127
Thorne chuckled, “No worries, isn’t it something your grandma adores? Go for it.”
Vesta’s heart melted at Thorne’s smile, lifting her paddle again, “Sixty million,”
Dalton was quick to follow: “Seventy million.”
After his bid, he turned to Thorne and said, “Mr. Henderson, you know how the elderly folks at home love these treasures. Could you do me a solid?”
Thorne glanced over with a polite smile, “Sorry, Mr. Ramirez, but the elders in my family love it too.”
Their exchange was open for all to hear. Naturally, Charlene and Connie overheard. The vase was for Katie.
Yet Thorne referred to her simply as “the elders in my family,” showing he already considered the Hawkins family his own.
This contrasted starkly with how he treated other family members.
Vesta raised her paddle: “Eighty–five million.”
This time, Dalton did not counter.
Ultimately, Vesta secured the antique vase for eighty–five million, drawing envious glances from around the
room.
Yet, even with the deal done, Vesta felt a bit uneasy.
Though the Hawkins were well–off, and her grandmother was indeed an antique enthusiast who’d spend a fair bit on her passion yearly, dropping nearly a hundred million on a single item was beyond their wildest dreams.
If her family found out, it would surely be a shock.
Moreover, Thorne had initially suggested she bid a hundred million.
But she felt that was too steep, opting for eighty–five million instead.
Vesta’s heart warmed at the thought of Thorne’s generosity.
Connie couldn’t help but exclaim, “Damn, that’s almost a hundred million!” Adding both items, the total was indeed nearing a hundred million.
Connie felt more than just a tinge of jealousy; it was overwhelming.
Charlene’s expression turned sour, noticing which, Connie asked, “You okay, Charlene?”
Seeing Thorne treat his mistress so well, especially knowing this mistress was the daughter of her father’s mistress, must have been hard to swallow.
But Charlene’s concern wasn’t about Thorne’s spending.
“It’s his money; he can spend it however he likes. I’m not interested. What bothers me is, if I want something Thorne and Vesta are bidding on, I stand no chance with my budget.”
Connie realized the predicament, “Right… but she’s already won two items. She might not bid again, right?”
One could only hope.
But with Thorne’s wealth, he could easily spend a few hundred million more without batting an eye.
As Charlene pondered this, the tapestry she was interested in was presented on stage.
The starting bid was five million.
Someone quickly offered six million.
Charlene raised her paddle, “Seven million.”

nitially, Vesta hadn’t noticed Charlene. But as soon as Charlene spoke, Vesta recognized her voice.
Tuming around, their eyes met.
Vesta’s expression was unreadable as she swiftly turned away and raised her paddle, declaring, “Ten million.”
Charlene’s heart sank.
Vesta had recognized her voice, and Charlene couldn’t believe Thorne hadn’t.
Yet, he didn’t turn around.
* Connie cursed under her breath, “Damn it! She’s bidding again!”
Dalton also entered the fray, “Fifteen million.”
Charlene bit her lip, raising her paddle, “Eighteen million.”
Without looking back, Vesta countered, “Twenty–five million.”

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...
