Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 

He asked, “Granger, you busy?” 

Granger replied, “Nope.” 

Moran then remembered something. “Oh… right, you’re back on Tuesday?” 

Granger paused for a moment before responding, “Yeah.” 

Before Moran could say anything else, Granger quickly added, “Let’s leave it at that.” 

“Alright, just hit me up when you’re back. I’ll come pick you up and we can check out Vesta together,” Moran offered. 

Granger hesitated, then said, “…Sure.” 

The next day. 

Charlene got up, went for a 30–minute jog, had breakfast, and then headed out. 

She arrived at the law firm to find Stewart already there. 

Upon seeing her, Stewart waved. 

Charlene sat down, and Mr. Padgett’s assistant served her coffee as she handed over the divorce agreement to Padgett. 

Padgett took it from her. 

Stewart and Padgett had been close friends for years, and Stewart leaned in closer to take a look. 

When he saw the first clause about the custody of Jasmine, he glanced at Charlene. 

Years ago, he had met Jasmine a few times. 

Charlene treated her like her whole world, always talking about her daughter in every phone call. 

But ever since she decided to divorce Thorne and go back to PrimeStar, she never brought up her daughter Jasmine in front of him again. 

Considering this, he speculated that during the year Jasmine lived abroad with Thorne, she might have grown close to Vesta, possibly even doing something that deeply hurt Charlene. 

Seeing that she only instructed the lawyer to look for loopholes in the property clauses of the agreement, without showing concern for the custody issue, Stewart understood that she was ready to let go of her daughter. 

He pry further. 

didn’t 

In his eyes, Charlene was a kind–hearted and sentimental person. 

The fact that she was willing to give up her own daughter meant she must have been deeply disillusioned. 

Thinking this, Stewart didn’t dwell on it, instead moving on to the other sections of the agreement. 

After a while, he raised an eyebrow, “All this real estate, wow, Thorne’s being quite generous.” 

Charlene sipped her coffee, not responding. 

Stewart casually flipped through the document, then stopped bothering Padgett and sat next to Charlene t chat about academic matters. 

They discussed a small portion using terminologies only the two of them could understand, leaving Mr. Padgett’s assistant utterly confused.

Chapter 188: 

As for Mr. Padgett, he was diligently going through the agreement with Charlene. 

After more than an hour. 

Padgett told Charlene, “I’ve checked it thoroughly, the agreement is indeed without issues. In fact, it’s quite favorable to you.” 

Charlene paused, “What do you mean?” 

“The cash goes without saying, and the real estate is clearly free from any disputes,” Padgett explained. “Regarding the shares Mr. Thorne is giving you from his company, it’s explicitly stated that you’re only responsible for collecting dividends. Should the company face any trouble, all legal liabilities and compensations fall solely on Mr. Thorne, not affecting you in the slightest.” 

Charlene was taken aback. 

Stewart’s eyes widened, “Are you sure you’re not mistaken? Thorne can be this considerate?” Padgett laughed, “Stewart, are you doubting my professional skills?” 

Stewart replied, “…Not exactly.” 

He was just too surprised, that’s all. Charlene was somewhat surprised too. But not overly so. Throughout their marriage, Thorne had always been distant and rarely supportive, but she knew him well enough to believe that if he was giving her something now, he would likely make sure she wouldn’t have any worries later on. 

Thus, her request to review the contract wasn’t out of suspicion he’d play tricks, but rather out of concern there might be overlooked details.
