Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 18
She was worried Helena would be concerned if she knew about her distress, so she quickly composed herself and asked, "Has Aunt Linda and the rest not returned from their vacation yet?"
"Nope, they are having too much fun and said they'd be back a week later," came the reply.
"What about Uncle Vernon? Does he have another business dinner tonight?"
"Your Uncle Vernon heard you were coming home and canceled his engagements. He said he'd be back for dinner with us. Should be here any minute now."
"Good."
No sooner had they finished speaking than Vernon Ross walked in.
Seeing Charlene, he said with a smile. "Charlene, you're back." But then his expression turned to concern. "Why have you lost so much weight? Haven’t you been eating well?"
Charlene laughed it off. "I've been too busy. I'll eat more tonight."
Vernon sighed and kept adding roast beef to her plate when dinner was ready.
Vernon mentioned she had lost weight, but Charlene noticed that he looked worn out. Though she never worked at the Ross Group, she knew the difficult times it was facing. Vernon was busy with work daily, struggling to keep the company afloat.
Over the years, the Ross Group wouldn’t have been in such dire straits if Thorne had extended his support.
Besides the two desperate occasions when Irma intervened, Thorne had never helped her. Charlene thought that if it weren’t for Irma, Thorne, with his misunderstandings about her, would probably have been more inclined to destroy the Ross Group than help it.
With those thoughts, the savory taste of the roast beef turned bland in her mouth.
Knowing her predicament, Vernon never asked her to seek help from Thorne, even in times of need.
After dinner, while Helena dozed off, Charlene handed Vernon a seventy-million check.
"Charlene, I don’t need—"
It was past ten o'clock when Thorne got home.
Rubbing her eyes, Jasmine greeted him, "Dad, you're back?"
"Yes," he replied tersely. "Go to bed if you're tired."
"Okay. Good night, Dad."
"Good night."
After Jasmine went upstairs to sleep, Thorne took the glass of water the butler handed him, finished it, and headed upstairs.
The bedroom was pitch black, seemingly empty. Thorne paused before turning on the light. As expected, it was empty.

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...
