Chapter 180
Moran was thoroughly confused.
Just then, Irma stepped out of the elevator, announcing, “Dinner’s ready, Charlene’s already downstairs. What are you two still doing up here? Come on, let’s eat.”
Moran snapped back to reality, replying, “Oh, right, on my way.” Thorne got up as well.
Downstairs, Jasmine was happily nestled on the couch next to Charlene, chatting away.
Charlene sat there, listening intently to Jasmine.
It was a touching scene of mother–daughter bonding.
But knowing that Charlene had given up Jasmine’s custody without so much as a fuss, Moran couldn’t help but feel the scene before his eyes was nothing but a facade. He frowned.
Irma was still in the dark about Charlene and Thorne’s divorce. She cheerfully called out to Charlene and
asmine, “Charlene, Minnie, dinner’s ready.”
Charlene and Jasmine replied in unison, “Okay, coming!”
Jasmine grabbed Charlene’s hand and they both headed to the dining room, hand in hand.
Moran rolled his eyes.
When Moran arrived, he took a seat next to Thorne. Charlene and Jasmine sat together.
Irma beamed, “We haven’t seen you in such a long time, Thorne. When I saw you were coming, I asked the chef
to prepare a couple of your favorite dishes. You must eat up.”
Moran chuckled, “Sure thing, Grandma, I’ll take care of those steaks!”
Irma said, “Alright, alright.”
Charlene was busy serving Jasmine, carefully removing bones from her fish with meticulous care.
At first glance, it seemed like nothing had changed.
But…Moran couldn’t help but stare a bit longer.
Noticing Moran’s gaze, Charlene gave him a cold look. Moran paused.
In the past, because of his close relationship with Thorne and Granger, he knew Charlene had always wanted to get on good terms with them.
Though they never really paid much attention to her, Charlene hadn’t given up easily. She may have been awkward socially, but she always made an effort to come over, greeting them with a gentle smile.
But now, Charlene’s gaze was ice–cold. As if she were looking at a stranger with whom she had no connect on
It was only then that Moran realized, Charlene seemed to act the same way towards Jasmine. She appeared caring and attentive, but her eyes no longer held the warmth of love. Instead, they were distant.
This… This couldn’t be real, right?
Moran could understand Charlene’s change of attitude towards him – after all, no one likes to be met with coldness when offering warmth.
But Jasmine was her daughter. How could she extend that indifference to her? Perhaps this was just another tactic, another way to catch Thorne’s attention. Maybe she was trying to make him want her back by pulling away?
With this thought, Moran turned her gaze to Thorne.
Sure enough, Thorne was also watching Charlene. And he didn’t seem in any hurry to look away.

This never would have happened before.
Moran couldn’t help but smirk to himself. He knew it.
Irma suddenly coughed lightly, “Moran, what are you looking at?”
Noticing Moran had been staring at Charlene all evening, Irma frowned.
Moran quickly realized Irma might have gotten the wrong idea and quickly chose something she knew Irma would like to hear, “Oh, I just noticed that Charlene seems particularly quiet tonight, not really engaging with Thorne. It struck me as odd, so I couldn’t help but look a bit longer.”

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...
