Chapter 142
Stewart chimed in, “Mr. Ross, could you give us a moment? Someone else is about to join us, should be here in ten, tops.
Vernon was well aware of the bond between Stewart and Charlene.
Stewart always seemed to go the extra mile for Charlene.
Both Helena and Vernon were quite grateful for his attentiveness.
“Hearing Stewart’s request, Vernon asked, “Just one more guest? We’ve got a spot open at the head table. Do
you think he’d mind joining us there?”
Stewart reassured, “He won’t mind at all.”
“That’s settled then.”
Vernon nodded and told the servers to delay serving the main courses to their table and attend to the other Quests first.
As their starters were being served, Stewart checked his phone and motioned for Charlene to follow him downstairs to greet their arrival.
Charlene nodded. As she turned, a familiar, chilly voice called out, “No need, I’m already here.”
Caught off guard, Charlene spun around. “Professor? Is that you?”
With a simple “Hmm,” Kenton acknowledged.
The other guests froze, questioning their eyesight. After all, it was Kenton, the tech mogul frequently spotlighted in the media.
A figure of national renown, whose talents alone were newsworthy, not to mention his influential background
And there he was, attending Helena’s birthday celebration?
Both Helena and Vernon were momentarily stunned before hurrying to welcome him.
Kenton, known for his reserve, still showed respect to elders he deemed worthy.
He had met Helena before.
Quickly moving to her side, he insisted she stay seated, “Please, don’t stand on my account.”
Once Helena was seated, she expressed her gratitude, “Mr. Wagner, your presence honors an old lady like me.”
“Far too kind,” Kenton responded as he sat beside her, “It’s been too long since my last visit, my apologies.
He then signaled for Stewart to hand him a gift, which he personally presented to Helena, “I’m afraid it was a bit rushed. I hope you won’t find it lacking.”
Laughing, Helena replied, “Mr. Wagner, your thoughtfulness alone is more than enough.”
After exchanging pleasantries with Helena, Kenton glanced towards Charlene and Stewart, who stood beside him like schoolchildren awaiting scolding.
They quickly took the hint and sat down beside him.
Helena continued, “You’ve been a great support to Charlene over the years.”
“It was only right,” Kenton remarked, “She’s recently made some significant strides in her research, truly living up to her potential. You can rest assured.”
Both Kenton and Helena had restrained from discouraging Charlene when she decided to drop out of college for Thorne.

They believed that facing challenges was part of growing up.
After all, it’s only through making their own choices that they learn what regret truly feels like.
The fear was that encountering setbacks could lead to a downward spiral from which one might never recover.
Fortunately, Charlene didn’t let her setbacks define her future.
Having seen cases like Sybil’s, Helena was concerned but understood that too much interference could be counterproductive. In the end, she let Charlene choose her own path.
Hearing Kenton’s reassurance now brought a wave of relief to Helena, “That’s wonderful to hear.”

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...
