Chapter 230
“Thank you,” Vesta said politely, a smile playing on her lips.
Campbell glanced at Granger, Dalton, and York, chuckling, “You guys better step up your game too.”
Just then, Hickey arrived with Charlene and Stewart in tow.
Turning to Campbell, he introduced, “Father, this is the youngest of the Ferguson family. His company, PrimeStar, has been doing exceptionally well lately and is one of the key enterprises our country plans to support in the coming years.”
He gestured towards Charlene, adding, “And this is Charlene, the core tech developer at PrimeStar. She’s a rare talent in the tech field, and PrimeStar’s success is closely tied to her contributions.”
The older generation, always invested in the nation’s future, seemed genuinely pleased. Campbell’s smile softened as he remarked, “It’s wonderful to see such outstanding talent in our country. The future certainly looks promising.”
Hickey went on to introduce Helena, and soon Campbell and Helena were deep in conversation about art.
Helena, coming from a family steeped in the arts, often spent her time at home painting. While she might not be on par with renowned artists like Campbell, she had a solid understanding and genuine passion for it, and their talk was lively and engaging.
Meanwhile, Vesta picked up on how Hickey’s introduction of Charlene echoed the way Stewart had introduced her at an earlier event. She figured Hickey must have been taken with Stewart’s commendations and was now singing Charlene’s praises in the same way.
Georgina and the Hawkins family weren’t present at the last event and were unaware of Stewart’s earlier commendations for Charlene. Now, hearing Hickey’s lavish praise, Rhoda nudged Vesta and whispered, “Is Charlene really that impressive?”
Vesta chuckled dismissively, “Not quite.”
Recalling Stewart’s words from the last event, she explained, “Charlene only joined PrimeStar a few months ago. How much could she have contributed to its current success? Stewart’s fondness for her is genuine, though. He’s willing to share his achievements with her.”
“Ah, I see. I thought she was truly remarkable,” Rhoda mused.
Vesta shrugged lightly, “She’s just an undergraduate.”
“Exactly. Whether it’s her school or qualifications, she’s far behind you. The way Mr. Watson praised her, you’d think she was more accomplished than Stewart,” Rhoda said with a hint of disbelief.
Maureen, overhearing Vesta, resumed her previously cool demeanor.
A short while later, Thorne returned. Seeing Charlene and Helena at the forefront, he glanced at them briefly before shifting his gaze away.
Vesta greeted him with a smile, “Finished your call?”
“Probably more to come later,” Thorne replied.
“Business overseas?” she inquired.
“Yeah,” he nodded.
While chatting, Granger shifted his focus to Charlene, noticing she was completely disinterested in Thorne and Vesta. It appeared she really wasn’t concerned about Thorne anymore.
The Spencer family seemed relieved, smiles breaking on their faces. Despite Charlene and Helena’s current favor with Campbell, it didn’t improve the Ross family’s situation. After all, it wasn’t like the Watson family would orchestrate a match between Charlene and York. That was clearly out of the question.

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...
