Chapter 297
After grabbing a bite to eat and catching a movie, Jasmine and Charlene found themselves wandering past an arcade. Jasmine, feeling nostalgic about the times they used to play games together, eagerly tugged Charlene
inside.
For Jasmine, hitting the shops, grabbing some food, and watching a movie followed by some games at the arcade was pretty routine. But it had been ages since she’d done any of that with Charlene, so even the ordinary felt extraordinary.
Charlene had plans with Abelard for dinner that evening.
As they left the arcade, Charlene thought about dropping Jasmine off at the Ross family’s place before heading out to meet Abelard.
Jasmine, however, wasn’t ready to part ways with Charlene. She held Charlene’s hand tightly, pouting a little, “Can’t I just come with you?”
Charlene paused for a moment.
Abelard had only invited her for a casual dinner, nothing special.
Bringing Jasmine along shouldn’t be a problem.
With that in mind, Charlene called Abelard to see if he would mind her bringing someone along.
Abelard chuckled, “Charlene, bring her along. I don’t mind at all.” Then, after a brief pause, he asked, “Is she your kid?”
Charlene simply replied, “Yeah.”
Abelard was a bit taken aback.
The last time they met, he recalled Charlene mentioning she was married, but it was surprising to see someone who looked so youthful already having a child.
Half an hour later.
Charlene entered the dining room hand in hand with Jasmine, finding Abelard already there.
Upon seeing Jasmine, Abelard grinned, “Charlene, is this your daughter? She really looks like you.”
Charlene smiled, “Yes.”
“What’s her name?”
“Jasmine.”
“Is her last name… Ross?”
Abelard paused.
The moment he saw Jasmine, he had a flicker of recognition, but couldn’t quite place it.
Then, the realization hit him. He remembered running into the Henderson family around New Year’s, and the little girl holding Thorne’s hand was unmistakably-
He looked at Charlene, a bit stunned, “Is Thorne your husband?”
Charlene nodded, “Yes.”
Abelard was momentarily silent.
When Charlene mentioned she was married before, he couldn’t help but wonder why someone so exceptional would settle down so young. After all, for someone as outstanding as Charlene, suitable matches were rare.
But if that someone was Thorne, well, honestly, in their social circle, Thorne was indeed the only one who could

be a match for Charlene.
However, recalling the distant look Charlene had when she first mentioned her marriage, and remembering how he hadn’t seen her with the Henderson family at New Year’s, Abelard realized that there were issues in Charlene and Thorne’s relationship, perhaps more significant than he had assumed,
He gestured for them to sit and then pulled out two small gifts, handing one each to Charlene and Jasmine.
Charlene hesitated, but Abelard gently insisted, “As your uncle, it’s only natural to give a little something for the new year. It’s a tradition, no big deal, just take it.”
Charlene accepted it graciously, “Thank you, Mr. Ramirez.”
She then turned to Jasmine and said, “Jasmine, say thank you to Mr. Ramirez.”

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...
