Chapter 274
“Granger?”
Thorne and the others, including Moran, paused and looked at him in surprise as he suddenly stood up.
Seeing his unusual expression, Thorne asked, “Is something wrong?”
Granger snapped back to reality, his gaze lingering on Thorne and Vesta before he slowly shook his head. “No, nothing,” he replied, sitting back down.
Leah started to say, “Granger, I-”
But Granger seemed not to hear her. Instead, he turned to Daisy with a gentle tone, “Daisy, are you thirsty? Do you want some water?”
“Yes, please,” Daisy replied eagerly.
She scampered over and took a couple of sips from the cup Granger held out before dashing back to chat with Jasmine. They had been discussing a little toy Jasmine had brought for her.
After finishing her drink, Daisy handed a small figurine to Jasmine. “I got this when I went to see a movie over the New Year holiday. It’s for you.”
Jasmine was delighted, accepting it with wide eyes. “You went to the movies on New Year’s too?”
“Yeah! My Uncle and that lady took me,” Daisy said, beaming. “After the movie, we played some games. That lady is really good at them, but we had to leave early because my Uncle had something come up.”
“My Uncle Terence took me to a movie that morning too, but he was in a hurry to meet his friends, so we didn’t have time to look around. I didn’t even know they sold these figurines,” Jasmine said, a hint of disappointment in her voice.
Hearing Daisy praise her Aunt’s gaming skills, Jasmine added softly, “My mom is really good at games too.” “Next time, let’s have your mom and my aunt join us for a game day!” Daisy suggested cheerfully.
As they chatted, both girls noticed Thorne watching them.
“Dad, what’s up?” Jasmine asked.
Thorne gave a small smile, “Nothing, just listening to you two.”
“Oh…”
After ordering their food, Moran suddenly turned to Granger. “By the way, Granger, how’s the project with PrimeStar coming along? Everything on track?”
“Pretty smoothly,” Granger replied.
Moran raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Oh? No hitches or surprises?”
Vesta, who had been reading intently, paused slightly at this.
Having known each other for years, Granger understood that Moran’s “surprises” referred to whether Charlene had made any blunders or mishaps.
He noticed Thorne was also paying attention, seemingly interested in the topic.
Granger lowered his gaze and replied, “Nope.”
“Really?” Moran seemed surprised.
“Yep.” Vesta, hearing this, pursed her lips slightly before turning the page of her book.
Thorne sipped his coffee without joining the conversation.

Chapter 27
Finding the topic dull, Moran quickly moved on.
After about two hours, they finished their meal and left.
Just as they did, Charlene and Kenton w
also heading downstairs to leave.
Once she was back home, Charlene started diving into the materials Kenton had provided her. The documents. included the latest plans in the Al field from various countries–conceptual ideas that hadn’t yet materialized into actual products.
Charlene studied them for a long time, losing track of time as the sky outside gradually brightened.
It wasn’t until the sun was high in the sky that her Aunt Maisie gently knocked on her door. “Charlene, breakfast is ready.”
Charlene responded, “Okay, I’ll be down in a minute.”
After brushing her teeth and taking a shower, she picked up the phone to call Stewart.

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...
