Chapter 31
Jasmine finally cracked a smile, rattling off her favorite foods without taking a breath.
Thorne listened quietly on the side.
After Jasmine finished, Vesta began to compliment her outfit. “Minnie, you look stunning in that dress. It suits you perfectly
Jasmine was happy. “Really?”
Vesta chuckled. “Of course, it’s true.”
Then, she asked, “So, Minnie, how was your day at school? Did you get along well with the other kids?”
Their conversation flowed smoothly, with Thorne rarely interjecting and focusing on his meal with meticulous care. To an uninformed waiter watching them, they appeared a perfect family of three, earning Vesta admiring glances.
Just then, Jasmine noticed a video call coming in from Charlene. She had requested the call that morning. But at that moment, she was enjoying her chat with Vesta too much to end it.
Seeing Charlene with another girl that morning had upset her. But her spirits lifted in class when the teacher reassured them that parents love their children more than anything, and that every child is unique and irreplaceable in their mother’s heart. That reassured her.
Worried by Jasmine’s delayed response, Charlene called the teacher.
The teacher laughed and explained in the kids‘ lounge that Jasmine was fine, video chatting with her dad and possibly an aunt.
“No need to bother,” Charlene decided, realizing Jasmine was busy with Vesta and Thorne.
Assuming Thorne was dining with Vesta, she softly said, “Let them talk. No need to disturb them.”
After hanging up, Charlene texted Jasmine, asking about her day, whether she had made any new friends, and what she had for lunch. Then, she reminded Jasmine to listen to the teacher and sleep on time.
About ten minutes later, Charlene received a voice message from Jasmine. [Got it, Mom. I’ll sleep well.]
After spending the day with Sunny, Charlene found her outgoing, sociable, and capable.
At around six in the evening, as Charlene was about to leave work, Sunny offered to buy her dinner as a thank–you for her guidance. “It’s part of my job, Sunny. No need for formalities,” Charlene demurred.
Just then, Charlene’s phone rang. It was her mother–in–law, Claudia.
Surprised, as Claudia usually ignored her, Charlene answered cautiously, “Claudia?”
Claudia tersely informed Charlene that Terence was secretly racing cars, expressed her concern, and asked Charlene to bring him back. then hung up after sending an address.
The address led Charlene to a racetrack in the suburbs.
After apologizing to Sunny for the sudden departure, Charlene headed to the racetrack. It was bustling and noisy. Unable to reach Terence by phone, Charlene searched the venue.
After nearly twenty minutes, she found him.
Terence was shocked to see her. “Charlene? What are you doing here?”
Charlene explained her mission.

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...
