Chapter 307
Granger had another social event that evening. After wrapping up business discussions, he prepared to leave.
Charlene noticed Granger looking at her and glanced up, “What’s up?”
Tomorrow was Valentine’s Day.
But he didn’t mention it. Instead, he just shook his head and said, “Nothing.”
Charlene was so absorbed in her work that she had completely forgotten about Valentine’s Day.
It wasn’t until the next day when she arrived at the office that she was reminded of it. Her colleagues greeted her with “Happy Valentine’s Day,” and that’s when it hit her.
Just as Charlene was about to head back to her office, she heard a voice from the entrance: “Is there a Ms. Charlene here? Someone has sent you flowers, could you come sign for them?”
Charlene turned her head to see a delivery guy holding a massive bouquet of red roses at the door.
His words, coupled with the lavish bouquet, captured everyone’s attention.
There were rumors outside that Charlene and Stewart were involved, but most people at the company knew she was married.
However, Charlene rarely spoke about her personal life, so her colleagues weren’t clear on her marital status.
Seeing the flowers on Valentine’s Day, a coworker enviously commented, “That’s a huge bouquet! Your husband must have sent them, right? He’s so thoughtful.”
“Seriously, I’m so jealous.”
Charlene thought to herself that there was no way Thorne would send her flowers, but she didn’t say anything.
The card indeed had her contact information, so the flowers weren’t delivered by mistake.
The delivery guy, upon confirming she was Charlene, handed over the bouquet. “Could you sign here, please?”
To avoid causing any trouble for the delivery person, Charlene signed for the flowers.
Back in her office, she opened the elegant card and found no name, just a simple “Happy Valentine’s Day” from Daisy.
Stewart came in and noticed the roses on the coffee table, raising an eyebrow, “Who are they from?”
Charlene shook her head, “No idea, but the handwriting seems familiar.”
Stewart chuckled, “Looks like you have a secret admirer. Any guesses?”
Charlene shook her head, “None.”
Stewart stroked his chin thoughtfully. He and Charlene were often seen together, yet he’d never noticed anyone showing interest in her.
With a smirk, he joked, “It couldn’t be Thorne, could it?”
Charlene replied coolly, “It’s not him.”
She and Thorne had been married for years, and he’d never celebrated Valentine’s Day with her, so why would he send roses now, when they were on the brink of divorce?
Besides, she could recognize Thorne’s handwriting.
“Alright then,” Stewart said, “Regardless, if the card’s written by the sender, they must have a soft spot for you. Plus, those roses are the fanciest kind.”
Maybe, but Charlene wasn’t particularly intrigued by the whole affair.

Chapter 30
Her mind was elsewhere entirely. She wasn’t really interested, no matter who had sent them. Since the sender didn’t leave any contact details or a name, she wasn’t inclined to dwell on it. “Let’s focus on work.”
She had important business to attend to at Neural Nexus Tech.
It was a plan set days ago.
After organizing her documents, and seeing that it was about time, she left for Neural Nexus Tech with a few colleagues.

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...
