Chapter 159
Charlene and Granger had just finished their dinner and were driving away when Charlene’s phone rang. It was
Connie.
“Charlene, where are you? I’m totally beat. Come pick me up for dinner, will you?”
Charlene, not mentioning that she had already eaten, asked, “Where are you?”
“Emerald Vale,” Connie said, referring to the newly developed vintage–style housing estate. “I’ve been here since early morning with my aunt checking out houses. I’m exhausted.”
“Alright, I’m on my way.”
After hanging up, Charlene set her GPS to Emerald Vale.
A few minutes later, Connie called again, sounding less than pleased, “Guess who I ran into here?”
Charlene paused, knowing only one thing could irritate Connie that much-
Thorne and Vesta, with the whole Hawkins clan! He brought them here to look at houses!”
Keeping her eyes on the road, Charlene responded noncommittally.
Thorne and Vesta were usually glued to Jasmine’s side, so it was unusual for Thorne to leave her behind.
The only plausible reason seemed to be that he was out house hunting for the Hawkins family, especially since the Spencers had already settled in, and the Hawkins were looking to make Starfall their permanent home. Arriving at Emerald Vale, Charlene parked and messaged Connie her location, asking where she could find a restroom in the sales office.
When she met up with Connie, she learned about the exorbitant prices of the properties from her. “Houses here start at three million, and the villa Thorne bought for the Hawkins? That’s over six million!”
Charlene simply nodded, her expression unreadable.
Connie continued, venting her frustration. “And get this–Thorne and Vesta came here because Vesta’s mom loves the style of this place.”
Charlene’s step wavered slightly when she heard that–no wonder Maureen had been all smiles earlier. Struggling to keep her composure, Charlene excused herself and headed to the restroom.
Inside, she clenched her fists in frustration. While she had grown accustomed to hearing about how well Thorne treated Vesta, she still couldn’t keep her cool when she found out he was going out of his way to please Maureen.
Suddenly, voices from the sales staff outside floated in. “Mr. Henderson really has an eye for beauty; his girlfriend is absolutely gorgeous.”
“Totally, and her mom is just as impressive–elegant and poised. Plus, her husband and mother–in–law totally spoil her. They cater to her likes and pamper her like nobody’s business. It just makes me green with envy when I think about my own husband!”
“Mr. Henderson’s girlfriend is living the dream. A six–million–dollar villa before they’re even married? Talk about life goals!”

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...
