Chapter 199
.
Granger’s expression changed ever so slightly.
He quietly turned his attention to Charlene, without Stewart noticing.
Stewart, caught up in the moment, leaned forward with an exaggerated bow and extended a gallant invitation,
“The lovely and beautiful Ms. Ross, may I have the pleasure of this dance with you?”
Charlene, skilled in the art of dance herself, smiled in response, “Of course, it would be my honor.”
Saying so, she placed her hand in Stewart’s.
Stewart, holding her hand, led her onto the dance floor.
Granger saw this and politely extended his hand towards another lady.
As Charlene and Stewart made their entrance, their eyes briefly met Thorne and Vesta’s, who were also about
to dance. Charlene intended to look away but noticed Thorne seemed to smile at her.
Frowning, she quickly realized it was a trick of her vision. Thorne was smiling at Vesta, not her.
Charlene shifted her focus, fully engaging in the dance with Stewart.
York, Dalton, Moran were all eligible bachelors within the Starfall social elite, much sought after by the ladies.
Many women aspired to dance with them.
After greeting Stewart, Dalton’s attention was fixated on Vesta.
He, like York, had no initial intention of dancing. However, due to the matchmaking efforts of their elders, they each gentlemanly escorted a lady onto the dance floor.
Moran, ever the playboy, took the initiative to ask women to dance.
Charlene, with her refined, graceful demeanor and the classical beauty she exuded in her dress, combined with her radiant smile, undoubtedly became the belle of the ball.
Many sought to swap dance partners with Stewart.
Kelvin was among them.
Approaching Stewart and Charlene, he asked, “Mr. Ferguson, would you mind swapping dance partners for a while?”
His eyes were practically glued to Charlene.
Stewart’s face hardened as he said, “Actually, I do mind.”
Kelvin was taken aback.
Just then, Charlene heard someone addressing her, “Ms. Ross, would you care to swap dance partners with me?”
Turning, she saw it was York’s dance partner speaking to her. The woman, pretty and sweet–looking, seemed quite interested in Stewart.
Charlene chuckled, glanced at a visibly surprised Stewart, and said, “I’m fine with it, but what about Mr. Watson…?”
York spoke up, “I’m all for it.”
Stewart was speechless. So his opinion didn’t matter?
then again, thinking about York… he had to admit the guy was quite the catch; matching him with Charlene Seemed appropriate.

Chapter 19
With a change of heart, the four of them smoothly switched partners.
Placing her hand in that of a stranger, with the other resting on his shoulder, was admittedly a bit awkward for
Charlene.
York, ever the gentleman, kept his touch light and respectful.
Noticing Charlene’s fleeting discomfort, York thought she seemed almost as if she’d never been in love, innocent and unspoiled.
Though they had seen each other before, they were practically strangers.
York introduced himself, “I’m York.”
Charlene, quickly overcoming her initial unease, looked up and replied with a calm, “Charlene.”

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...
