Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 128
Chapter 128
ešta just skyrocketed the bid again!
Charlene’s heart sank. She wasn’t exactly swimming in cash.
Going into this auction, she’d capped her budget at 30 million.
After all, the Ross family’s business was hitting a rough patch.
They didn’t have cash to burn.
But now…
Dalton: “28 million.”
Charlene raised her paddle, saying, “30 million.”
Her voice, following Dalton’s twice in succession, was clear, gentle, and incredibly captivating.
Dalton, hearing her, turned to look.
His eyebrows raised in a mix of surprise and amusement upon seeing Charlene, and he offered a smile.
Charlene, noticing his glance, nodded politely in response.
Just then, Vesta went ahead: “40 million.”
Charlene, losing interest in Dalton, clenched her fist tight at the sound.
Dalton again: “43 million.”
Charlene, not backing down, countered: “45 million.”
Vesta said, “50 million.”
Boom! Charlene’s mind was blown.
Sure, her initial budget was 30 million.
But the moment Vesta made her move, Charlene had silently upped her budget to 50 million.
She could afford to go higher. After all, Thorne had just gifted her a villa worth a couple hundred million.
Since that money was a windfall, why not spend it?
But she knew the tapestry wasn’t worth 50 million.
She could afford to splurge, but she couldn’t afford to be reckless.
Selling the villa could fund more meaningful ventures.
With that thought, Charlene lowered her hand.
Connie suggested, “Why not call Thorne?”
Charlene had thought about it. But would Thorne actually ask Vesta to back off for her sake? That seemed unlikely.
Even knowing it was a long shot, Charlene still pulled out her phone and dialed Thorne.
Thorne, feeling his phone vibrate, took it out of his pocket.
Vesta glanced over, seeing only an unlabelled number, asked, “A stranger?”
Thorne chuckled but didn’t answer, simply hanging up.
Watching the call get disconnected without a second thought, Charlene’s last shred of hope vanished.
She felt a momentary blankness in her mind.

Connie, indignant, said, “Damn, he actually ignored your call!”
Charlene remained silent, quietly slipping her phone back into her purse.
By now, the bidding had soared to 95 million.
Dalton, massaging his temples, turned to Thorne: “Mr. Henderson, can you do me a favor here?”
Thorne responded with a polite smile, “Maybe next time.”
Dalton was speechless.
Next time my foot!
He raised his paddle, pushing the bid to 120 million.
Vesta countered: “150 million.”
Dalton had nothing to say.
Seeing this, Connie whispered fiercely to Charlene, “This is the first time I’ve seen Dalton at a loss.”
The Ramirez family, just like the Hendersons, were top–tier tycoons.
Dalton’s reluctance seemed not from a lack of funds but more about not wanting to overspend.
Whereas Thorne, seemingly in pursuit of a lady’s favor, appeared to spare no expense.
With no further bids, the tapestry naturally went to Vesta again.
Thorne turned to Dalton, saying, “Mr. Ramirez, I appreciate your understanding.”
Dalton replied, “Mr. Henderson, you’re too polite.”

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...
