Chapter 187
However, being in his position, Abelard having inside information and giving his own circle a heads up was pretty much the norm.
That’s just how it works among the elite.
Stewart had gotten used to it by now.
Grinding his teeth, he said, “Our company definitely needs to collaborate with others to scale up the project, but lately, I just can’t stand the sight of Dalton…”
Charlene knew it was because Dalton had taken a liking to Vesta.
But Charlene truly didn’t care. She stated coolly, “The smooth progress of the project and maximizing our benefits is what matters most. Everything else is secondary.”
She had met Abelard once. He might have his biases, but from what their mentor’s attitude towards him
ndicated, Abelard was indeed trustworthy.
“I know,” Stewart said.
He was just venting.
He raised his chin and huffed, “Anyway, we still have some time before we officially start seeking investors. I’ll just give him the cold shoulder for now.”
Charlene laughed, “Alright.” As long as he was happy.
After Dalton’s call, Charlene and Stewart continued discussing business.
But half an hour later, Stewart’s phone rang again.
Seeing the caller ID, he displayed a mix of disdain and smugness.
Charlene, sensing it was someone familiar, asked, “Who is it?”
Stewart smiled, “Granger.”
“Looking to collaborate?”
“Very likely.”
Like with Dalton, he didn’t usually cross paths with Granger or Moran.
Granger wouldn’t call him without a reason. Besides, the Harden family, like the Ramirez family, had connections in both politics and the military.
They were very well–informed.
“Should I take it?” Stewart asked Charlene.
Being Thorne’s wife, Granger and his crowd looked down on her but had taken Vesta, the mistress, into their fold and got along with her so well.
In his view, Granger was even more despicable than Dalton.
“Take it,” Charlene said. She didn’t want Stewart to act impulsively.
Stewart answered the call.
As expected, Granger, like Dalton, was indeed calling to seek collaboration.
After stating his purpose, Granger said, “I’m currently out of town on a business trip, but I’ll be back in Starfall by noon tomorrow. How about dinner tomorrow night?”
Stewart replied indifferently, “Thank you, Mr. Harden, for the honor, but the project is just kicking off and we’re

swamped with work. I really can’t make time tomorrow, maybe some other time.”
‘How about Thursday?”
Stewart said, “I might not be available then either, but if I am, I’ll contact you immediately.”
Granger was aware that their company’s upcoming projects were highly sought after, and he knew Stewart really didn’t need to worry about securing investors.
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for Mr. Ferguson’s call anytime,” Granger said.
After hanging up, Stewart was so delighted he started pounding on the table, laughing heartily, “That felt great!”
Charlene laughed along.
Stewart suddenly stopped, looked at her, and asked, “Do you think… Thorne might also want to collaborate with us?”
Considering it, their company and Neural Nexus Tech were in the same league.
There was competition between them.
But even in competition, there was room for collaboration.
Hadn’t Thorne shown interest in their language system last time and initiated a partnership?

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...
