Chapter 247

Charlene wasn’t surprised to see her and gently ruffled her hair. “You came over right after school?”
“Yeah!” Jasmine beamed, her eyes lighting up when she saw her. She then called out, “Great–Grandma Helena.”
Helena acknowledged her with a faint nod just as Thorne emerged from the hospital room.
He nodded at them as they arrived, but Helena’s expression remained cool, offering no further acknowledgment.
Charlene glanced at him briefly before turning her attention back to Jasmine, who seemed eager to speak. “Your mom and I are going to see your great–grandma first, okay?”
“Oh…”
Jasmine, a bit disappointed but understanding, took Charlene’s hand, ready to go into the room together.
Thorne took the bouquet and the fruit basket they brought and followed them back into the hospital room.
Irma’s face lit up with a delighted smile when she saw Charlene and Helena. “What brings you here?”
Helena, noting Irma’s struggle to sit up, quickly intervened. “Oh, come on, after everything that’s happened, you didn’t think to tell us?”
Irma’s smile faded slightly. She glanced over at Thorne, who was busy pouring water for Charlene and Helena. “I didn’t have the heart to face you…”
Charlene and Helena accepted the glasses of water Thorne offered.
Helena finally spoke up, “This is between them, Irma. You’re not to blame.”
“But I-”
With Jasmine present, Irma hesitated to say more.
Helena patted Irma’s hand reassuringly, “I know everything.”
After greeting Helena, Irma shifted her focus to Charlene. Jasmine, who hadn’t seen Charlene since the parent–child event at school, was now sticking close to her side and trying to climb onto her lap.
Charlene set her glass down and lifted Jasmine onto her lap.
When Helena glanced over, Charlene greeted her, “Grandma.”
“Yes, dear.” Irma’s face softened with a warm smile.
With Jasmine there, the conversation steered clear of any issues between Charlene and Thorne. Instead, Helena and Charlene focused on catching up with Irma about her current situation.
Irma shared the details, and when they learned about her surgery scheduled for the next day, Helena said, “I’ll be here to keep you company.”
“Thanks, old friend. It means a lot.”
Having Helena there to chat would boost Irma’s spirits.
After a bit of talking, Irma suddenly remembered. “You haven’t had dinner, have you? Thorne, why don’t you arrange-”
“No need,” Helena interjected. “Charlene and I ate before we came.”
She turned to Thorne with a cool tone, “If you and Minnie haven’t eaten, you should go grab something.”
Jasmine, who hadn’t had a meal with Charlene in ages, clung to her neck. “Mom, I’ve missed you so much. Can’t you come with us?”

Chapter 244
Remembering the events of the previous night, Charlene offered a soft, resigned smile. “I’ve had a long day at work, sweetheart. I’m tired and just don’t feel up to moving around much. You all go ahead.”
With Charlene’s gentle refusal, Jasmine couldn’t argue further. Yet, nestled in Charlene’s familiar embrace, she was reluctant to let go, savoring her mom’s comforting scent.

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...
