Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 233
Chapter 233
Charlene was going over their chess match in her head when something caught her attention.
Just then, she overheard Vesta saying, “Quintin, after watching your game, I’m really tempted to give it a try, but I’m afraid I’m not quite skilled enough yet to take on Thorne.”
“Oh, don’t worry about it,” Quintin chuckled. “I was just joking earlier. If you’re interested, go for it.”
Vesta was about to respond when someone chimed in with a laugh, “If Ms. Hawkins is playing, the outcome really is anyone’s guess, haha.”
“Exactly! Even if Mr. Henderson is a chess whiz, if he beats Ms. Hawkins, he might end up sleeping on the couch when he gets home,” another quipped.
The crowd erupted in laughter at the comment.
Quintin hadn’t realized there was a connection between Vesta and Thorne. Looking at Vesta, who was strikingly beautiful and carried herself with confidence, he could see why she was a good match for Thorne.
With a teasing grin, he turned to Thorne and said, “Oh? Well, in that case, I’m eager to see if you can keep your cool like you do against us old–timers when you’re playing in front of your girlfriend.”
Vesta, not bothered by the spotlight, gave Thorne a confident smile and said, “I can handle losing. Let’s just play fair and square.”
Thorne gave a subtle, charming smile, “Alright.”
Someone couldn’t help but comment, “They haven’t even started playing yet, and they’re already showing off their romance.”
“Showing off or not, Ms. Hawkins is a top–notch PhD graduate from one of the best universities in the world. If she’s speaking so confidently, she must have some serious skills.”
Quintin, who hadn’t known about Vesta’s academic background, remarked with surprise, “A PhD, huh? You’ve got quite the eye, Thorne.”
Stewart rolled his eyes at the banter. He had been about to suggest to Charlene that she should give it a try, but Vesta had interrupted before he could say anything.
Now watching the scene unfold, he muttered under his breath, “Enough with the chit–chat. Just start the game already.”
Though his voice was low, Charlene and Granger caught his words. Charlene merely smiled.
Granger glanced at Charlene, noting her composed and calm demeanor, which put him at ease.
Finally, Thorne and Vesta began their chess match.
Charlene could see that Vesta was no novice at chess. She clearly knew her way around a chessboard, and she was far from being a beginner. But…
After watching for a while, Charlene shifted her gaze away.
Stewart, after observing the game for a bit, rolled his eyes again, feeling like he couldn’t endure another
moment.
, Noticing Charlene seemed disinterested as well, he asked, “Want to head back to the lounge and grab
something to eat?”
Charlene shook her head, “No, let’s wait a bit longer.”
Granger had noticed Charlene’s dwindling interest in the game much earlier than Stewart. When Thorne and Quintin were playing, Charlene had been intently focused. Now, with Thorne and Vesta, she’d only watched briefly before her attention waned, despite the back–and–forth of the game.

Chapter 23
Even though Vesta was managing quite well, it was clear that her skills weren’t on par with Quintin’s, let alone Thorne’s. Still, she was certainly impressive. Charlene’s reaction said it all.
“Not bad at all,” Campbell’s voice suddenly piped up from nearby.
He and York had somehow arrived on the scene, now standing beside Quintin.

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...
