Chapter 210
1
Charlene grabbed her laptop and headed over to Stewart’s place for dinner at Kenton’s house. After a delicious meal of roast chicken and mashed potatoes, Kenton helped her with her paper.
As the night grew late, Charlene hopped into her car, ready to head home when her phone rang, it was her Aunt
Maisie.
“Hey, Charlene, Maisie said urgently. “I planned a boat trip for the kids tomorrow, but something came up withs my family and I need to go back home. I can’t take them with me.”
Charlene listened, nodding as if her aunt could see her. “No worries, Aunt Maisie. I’ve got a free day tomorrow I’ll take them out for you.”
No sooner had she hung up than her phone buzzed again. This time, it was Granger calling.
“Hey, Granger,” she quickly said, “if this is about Daisy, I already have plans for tomorrow and can’t make it Granger chuckled on the other end. “Mind sharing what those plans are? Daisy’s been eager to see you.” Charlene saw no harm in explaining. “I’m taking my cousins on a boat trip.”
“Well,” Granger paused, “Daisy would love that. Would it be okay if we tagged along?”
Charlene hesitated for a second, then replied, “Let me check with my cousins first. I’ll get back to you.”
Five minutes later, she called Granger back with a thumbs–up.
The next morning, around eight, Charlene arrived at the harbor with Nadine and Carl Ross. They found Granger and Daisy already there, waiting.
As soon as Daisy spotted Charlene, she dashed over, “Ms. Ross!”
Charlene crouched down to hug Daisy, beaming. “Daisy, it’s been too long.”
Seeing the puzzled looks on Nadine and Carl’s faces, Charlene introduced everyone.
Granger smiled warmly, “Hey there,” and handed them some gifts. “I wasn’t sure what you guys liked, so ! just picked something. Hope you like them.”
His thoughtfulness left them pleasantly surprised, especially Charlene.
After the small talk, they all boarded the boat. Nadine and Carl knew about Charlene’s upcoming divorce from Thorne. As they watched Charlene holding Daisy’s hand and chatting with Granger, Nadine gave Carl a nudge and a knowing look, as if to say, “Could this be Charlene’s future husband?”
Carl shrugged, whispering back, “Seems like it, doesn’t it?”
Nadine leaned in closer to her brother, muttering, “And he’s quite handsome.”
He appeared much more approachable than their soon–to–be–ex brother–in–law. But as they watched Charlene playing with Daisy, a mix of emotions swept over them. They knew Charlene was likely to lose custody of Jasmine to Thorne.
It was evident Jasmine preferred staying with Thorne, as she’d been back in town but rarely visited the Ross family home. They couldn’t fathom how much this must hurt Charlene.
Seeing her newfound happiness with Granger brought them relief. They joined in playing with Daisy, thinking that if they were kind to the Harden family now, maybe, just maybe, they’d be kind to Charlene in return if she ended up marrying Granger.

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...
