Chapter 244
Jasmine glanced around once more, ensuring Charlene was nowhere in sight, before leaving with Vesta.
As he watched them walk away, Dalton was about to head off himself when he noticed Charlene standing a
short distance away.
His stride faltered.
Realizing he couldn’t just ignore her, he paused, especially since Charlene’s gaze was fixed on Vesta and Jasmine with an icy intensity.
Charlene’s face was expressionless, her eyes cold and detached. To Dalton, it looked like she was staring at Vesta as if she were her sworn enemy.
The thought crossed his mind that Charlene might harbor some ill intentions towards Vesta, still holding onto old grudges.
Dalton decided to approach her.
Charlene was carrying quite a few things. Two potted plants and several decorative items for her home.
The decorations were a spontaneous buy. Since moving into her current place, she had been too caught up with her personal affairs to focus much on decor, leaving her living space somewhat empty and devoid of personal touches. Although she initially went out just to buy plants, she ended up grabbing a few decorative items from a nearby store as well.
As she was leaving, she hadn’t expected to run into Vesta and Jasmine.
Once they left, she was about to go her own way when Dalton marched up to her, demanding, “What are you planning?”
Charlene stopped in her tracks. “What do you mean?”
Dalton replied, “She couldn’t care less about you. You’re not important to her. Yet you still hold a grudge. Doesn’t that seem pointless?”
“Couldn’t care less?” Charlene’s eyes turned colder. “You hold her in such high regard, don’t you?”
To Dalton, Vesta was practically perfect.
Before he could respond, Charlene continued, “So, what is it you want to say to me? Warn me not to hurt her?”
Dalton couldn’t deny that this was indeed his intention.
Charlene let out a short, mocking laugh. “Even Thorne hasn’t said that to me, Mr. Ramirez. So, what’s your angle here? Vesta’s secret admirer?”
Dalton didn’t bother hiding his admiration for Vesta from Charlene.
Hearing her words, he retorted coolly, “So, are you suggesting I should remind Thorne to keep an eye on you?” His mind flashed back to that previous party where Thorne had asked Charlene to dance. Dalton and York had speculated that Thorne’s approach was a veiled warning for Charlene to stay away from Vesta.
He added, “Or do you think Thorne’s previous warning was too gentle for your liking?” Charlene remained silent, merely staring at him with a mocking glint in her eyes.
Dalton felt a twinge of irritation at her seemingly contemptuous gaze.
Before he could compose a response, Charlene asked, “Are you really Abelard’s son?”
Though her interactions with Abelard had been limited, she viewed him as a man who exuded both the warmth of a mentor and the commanding presence of a leader.

Yet, she saw none of that reflected in Dalton, aside from their physical resemblance.
Perhaps Dalton’s infatuation with Vesta clouded his judgment.
Dalton was taken aback when she mentioned his father, her tone carrying a familiarity that left him puzzled. How could she possibly know his father?
His expression darkened. “What do you mean by that?”
Charlene didn’t answer his question. Instead, she said, “Aren’t you going to have Thorne warn me? Go ahead, I’ll be waiting.”
With that, she turned on her heel and walked away without a backward glance.

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...
