Chapter 273
That evening, after officially submitting their work, they decided to take Kenton out for dinner.
This time, Kenton didn’t turn them down.
As they arrived at the restaurant, Charlene got out of the car with Kenton and the others, heading upstairs, completely unaware that Granger’s car was parked not too far away.
Granger, however, paused for a moment when he saw Charlene and the group before he stepped out of his car, carrying a sleepy Daisy.
Moran was the first to arrive.
Seeing him, he greeted, “You’re here?”
Granger nodded, “Yeah.”
A few minutes later, as Daisy was just waking up, Thorne, Vesta, Jasmine, and Leah showed up.
Seeing Leah, Granger averted his gaze.
Leah, on the other hand, was all smiles, walking briskly over to him with a sweet greeting, “Granger.”
Granger looked at her with a cool expression, not responding.
Leah felt the awkwardness creeping in, but then Jasmine approached. Noticing Daisy seemed a little off, she asked, “Daisy, are you feeling okay?”
Daisy replied, “Not really…”
Granger, catching Jasmine’s eye, offered a gentle smile, “Daisy’s fine, just a bit groggy from.waking up.”
With Jasmine there, Daisy climbed down from Granger’s arms and joined her on the couch to chat.
When Vesta arrived, she took a seat next to Thorne, sipped the water he handed her, and then pulled out a book from her bag. She said to Granger and the others, “I’m gonna read a bit. You guys chat. Don’t mind me.”
Everyone was aware that Vesta was studying under Lanny. Watching her commitment, Moran couldn’t resist teasing her, “Bringing a book to dinner? Isn’t that going a bit overboard?”
Leah, now sitting next to Granger, chimed in, “My cousin’s been like this all week–super dedicated.”
Granger was aware of Vesta’s ambition to become Kenton’s student.
And Kenton was, in fact, dining not far from their private room.
Yet, he kept that to himself.
As he thought about it, a realization struck him.
Earlier downstairs, when he saw Charlene with Stewart and Kenton, he initially assumed Charlene was there because of Stewart.
But if that were true, she would have been standing next to Stewart.
Charlene wasn’t the most social person, yet she seemed quite familiar while chatting with Kenton.
PrimeStar’s projects had only been in development for a few months.
Charlene had left The Henderson Group to join PrimeStar around the same time–about three or four months
ago.
Lanny had mentioned a few days back that Charlene was more capable than him.
And suddenly he remembered how Vesta wanted to join PrimeStar, but Stewart, due to Charlene, had promptly turned. down Vesta, whom they all thought was exceptional.
Back then, both he and Moran believed there was something between Charlene and Stewart, which was why Stewart chose Charlene over Vesta.
But now…
Watching Vesta flipping through her book and earnestly asking Thorne questions when she didn’t understand something, a light bulb went on in Granger’s head. He suddenly stood up, frozen by his realization.

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...
