Chapter 253
Charlene turned to Thorne and said, “My uncle mentioned that someone from The Henderson Group reached out to him, looking to collaborate on a project.”
Thorne was about to respond when Charlene continued, “I know you want to repay me and my grandmother for visiting your grandmother in the hospital, and you think this is a way to show gratitude. But we didn’t do it for you, so there’s no need for any projects.”
If they started doing business with The Henderson Group, both the Hawkins and Spencer families would undoubtedly cause a stir and create problems.
Even if Thorne genuinely wanted to thank her and her grandmother by offering a project to help her uncle, his heart truly belonged to Vesta.
One day, if he wavered, this favor could become a vulnerability. Any consequences would still fall on the Ross family. She couldn’t afford to accept such a project.
She said coolly, “You can rest assured, after the divorce, we’ll go our separate ways. I won’t cling to you anymore.”
To her, this was just another way for Thorne to draw a line between them.
He was eager to set boundaries, afraid she might cling to him.
But she wouldn’t anymore.
Thorne listened silently for a few seconds before replying, “Alright.”
Charlene didn’t say anything else to him. She picked up her phone and conveyed her decision to Vernon.
After the call, they all went skiing.
This time, the skiing went smoothly without any incidents.
However, Charlene mostly chatted with Nadine, Carl, and Jasmine.
As for Thorne, they barely spoke unless necessary.
Thorne didn’t make much effort to start a conversation either.
Around noon, Thorne told Charlene he had to leave early, to which she replied, “Alright,” in a flat tone.
Thorne turned to Jasmine and asked, “Minnie, are you-”
“I’m going to the movies with Mom and the others!”
That wasn’t Charlene’s plan originally; it was Nadine and Carl who wanted to see a movie. The three kids put the plan together before letting Charlene know.
Thorne replied, “Okay.” He nodded to Charlene and turned to leave.
About ten minutes after Thorne left, Charlene’s phone rang. It was her divorce lawyer, Padgett. He said, “I just received a call from Thorne. He mentioned he’s preparing a new divorce agreement today, offering you two or three more multi–million dollar properties than the original agreement.”
Charlene’s expression remained unchanged upon hearing this.
Thorne’s actions suggested he didn’t trust her words and thought she might still cling to him. Even if she refused his offer, he couldn’t feel at ease?
She responded, “Alright, I understand. I have no objections. The rest is up to you.”
Meanwhile, Thorne had left the ski resort and picked up Vesta to head to a restaurant.
When they arrived, the private dining room was filled, not just with the Spencer and Hawkins families, but

others as well.
The room was packed with people.
Seeing Thorne and Vesta walk in together, Henley and Garfield immediately broke into smiles.
Vesta sat down next to her aunt, Rhoda.
Thorne took his seat and started chatting with some business partners.
Rhoda leaned over to Vesta and whispered, “Vesta, we just heard that Thorne is planning to hand over a project
from The Henderson Group to the Ross family!”
Vesta replied, “I’m already aware of that.”

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...
