Chapter 309
She now owned shares in Neural Nexus Tech. Just a moment ago, she was out at a meeting with Thorne and the others.
“Cousin,” Leah said with a smirk as she walked over, casting a sideways glance at Charlene. She whispered just loud enough for only the two of them to hear, “Someone was all proud about receiving flowers earlier. But when they heard a bunch of people sent you flowers, and that my brother–in–law gave you shares, they suddenly went silent.”
Vesta heard this and gave Charlene a brief look before saying nothing.
Leah continued, “Sis, didn’t you say Stewart was really good to her? But today’s Valentine’s Day, and all he gave her was a single bouquet with nothing else. Doesn’t seem like he’s all that great to her after all.”
Vesta raised an eyebrow.
On Valentine’s Day, Stewart only gave Charlene a bouquet? That seems pretty half–hearted.
Before, she genuinely thought Stewart treated Charlene well. After all, Charlene had significant influence at PrimeStar.
But now, with something to compare against, she realized if Stewart truly cared, he wouldn’t just offer her influence without a position or shares, right?
Just then, Edwin walked over, noticed Vesta, and with a grin, asked, “Now that you’ve got shares, are you planning to jump in and manage Neural Nexus Tech yourself?”
Vesta replied, “Nah, I believe in leaving the professional stuff to the experts. I’m not one to hoard power.”
As she spoke, she glanced at Charlene.
Charlene, despite having no real abilities, liked to flaunt her influence at PrimeStar, meddling in everything. Yet ironically, she had neither a position nor shares. It was kind of amusing when you thought about it.
Charlene focused on her work, seemingly unaffected by the earlier drama.
Her phone buzzed.
She glanced at it; it was a message from Kenton.
[Pick me up tomorrow evening.]
Last week, Kenton had mentioned someone wanted to meet her. Tomorrow’s meeting was likely about that.
Charlene thought for a moment and agreed. After replying, she put her phone away and dove back into her work.
The next day, Charlene and Stewart picked up Kenton and headed to the reserved restaurant.
Upon arriving and stepping out of the car, Charlene spotted Abelard and Hickey.
Kenton had mentioned someone wanted to meet her, so she assumed she’d be meeting strangers today. She didn’t expect Abelard and Hickey to be there too.
Charlene greeted them with Stewart, “Mr. Ramirez, Hickey.”
Abelard and Hickey nodded with smiles.
After exchanging pleasantries, they were about to head upstairs when someone emerged from another car, calling out, “Leaving already? Not gonna wait for me?”
Charlene turned around and was momentarily stunned to see the newcomer.
Wasn’t he from the Department of Defense?

Chapter 10
Kenton, still expressionless, introduced him, “Geoffrey”
Geoffrey toned down the commanding presence he usually had during interviews and offered a warm smile. We extended his hand to her, saying, “Charlene, right? I’ve heard so much about you?
“Yes,” Charlene replied, “Nice to meet you”
“Everyone’s here, huh.” Another familiar face from the news emerged from a different car and approaches them.
Kenton, in his usual cool manner, said, “This is Darius,”
Charlene shook hands with Darius, just about to speak when a voice interrupted, “Dad?
Dalton got out of the car, surprised to see not only Abelard and Hickey but also so many prominent figures gathered. What shocked him more was seeing Charlene among them.

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...
