Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 222
Chapter 222
Dalton remained silent, lost in thought.
Stewart, on the other hand, seemed to make it his personal mission to put Dalton in an awkward spot.
Truthfully, the money didn’t matter much to either of them; it was just pocket change. As they ate, the talk gradually turned to more serious topics. Charlene sat quietly eating her Caesar salad, only chiming in when needed.
Dalton noticed this and was a bit surprised. Charlene’s comments were always insightful and added value to the discussion.
She seemed to have some real skills, he thought. Initially, Dalton assumed that Charlene was just trying to cozy up to Stewart, playing the subordinate role. But during this dinner, their dynamic seemed to be the opposite.
Perhaps, he mused, this was Charlene’s secret weapon in keeping Stewart so captivated. After all, if she wasn’t talented, how could she hold Stewart’s interest so tightly?
As the meal wound down, Charlene excused herself to the restroom. On her way back, she bumped into Thorne, who was just stepping out of the adjacent men’s room.
Thorne glanced at her but seemed unsure of what to say.
Charlene had no intention of making small talk either. She was about to walk past him when she remembered something. “When can we finally sort out the divorce papers?” she asked.
She knew he was eager to get it done, probably more so than she was. So she hadn’t bothered to ask before. But it had been a while now.
Thorne replied. “It’ll take a little more time.”
“No specific date?”
“I’ll let you know once it’s set.”
Charlene nodded, ready to leave when Thorne added, “My grandmother knows about the divorce now.”
Charlene shrugged. “That’s probably for the best.”
At least there’d be no more awkward matchmaking attempts. No more pretending for her.
“Yeah,” Thorne agreed.
They walked in silence for a bit, side by side. Suddenly, someone came barreling around the corner.
Charlene and Thorne quickly stepped aside to dodge a collision. Despite their efforts, Charlene was still bumped and ended up pressed against Thorne. He instinctively steadied her by wrapping his hand around her
waist.
“Sorry!” the person called out, rushing into the restroom.
As soon as she realized what happened, Charlene tried to pull away from Thorne’s embrace, but just then, Dalton appeared from around the corner.
He stopped abruptly, taking in Charlene pressed against Thorne and Thorne’s arm around her. “You two-”
Thorne released Charlene immediately.
Charlene stepped aside, putting distance between herself and Thorne. Without meeting either man’s eyes, she turned and walked away.
Dalton watched her go and then turned his attention back to Thorne.

Chapter 22
Thorne gave a casual smile. “Mr. Ramirez, just heading to the restroom?”
Dalton’s voice was cool. “…Yes.”
With a nod, Thorne walked away as well.
Dalton stood there, lips pressed into a thin line.
He never really thought about Charlene and Thorne in the same context. All he knew was they had crossed paths at Neural Nexus Tech, though they’d barely spoken, given Charlene’s relatively low rank at PrimeStar.
Then there was that recent gala.
Thorne had approached Charlene at the gala just because of Vesta, right? They didn’t have any other connection, or so he thought. But the scene he just witnessed made him question everything.

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...
