Vesta put down her phone and turned to Laverne, saying, “Something must have come up. I’ll call back later.”
After about half an hour, she dialed Granger again. This time, he picked up. “Am I interrupting anything?” Vesta asked.
“No, not at all,” Granger replied. In truth, he’d seen her call the first time but chose not to answer.
“Is there something you need?” he queried.
Vesta explained her reason for calling, and Granger asked, “Why not send her over to Thorne Industries?”
With a slight smile, Vesta responded, “Thorne Industries isn’t hiring at the moment.”
Granger paused for a moment before asking, “What’s her name?”
“Janetta.”
“How do you spell that?”
“J–A–N–E–T–T–A,” Vesta clarified.
“Got it. Have her apply through the usual channels,” Granger said.
“Thanks, Granger,” Vesta said gratefully.
Before Granger could reply, Vesta, eager to keep the conversation going, asked casually, “What are you up to these days? Staying busy?”
Before he could respond, a gentle female voice came from Granger’s end. “Granger, who are you talking to?”
“Nothing important,” Granger replied coolly. Then, to Vesta, he added, “I have to go. We’ll talk later.” And with that, he hung up.
The sudden appearance of the woman’s voice had clearly soured Granger’s mood, and his abruptness in ending the call suggested he didn’t want Vesta to get the wrong idea about his relationship with the woman.
Vesta raised an eyebrow at the thought. She set her phone down and told Laverne, “Granger agreed.”
“Thank you, Vesta,” Laverne said gratefully.
Leah, with a triumphant grin, turned to Janetta and said, “See? I told you, as long as my sister asks, Granger will say yes.”
Janetta paused, giving Vesta a thoughtful look.
That evening, after having dinner, Charlene returned to her apartment from the Ross Mansion. She was about to start her work on the computer when a call from Thorne came through. Charlene didn’t answer; instead, she turned off her phone.
It wasn’t until the next morning that she powered it back on. She found several messages from Thorne waiting for her.
[I’d like to talk to you.]
[About grandma’s birthday party.]
[I hope you’ll attend.]
Seeing no reply from her, Thorne stopped messaging.
Charlene stayed quiet. Later, as she was making breakfast after her morning routine, Thorne called again. She frowned and chose to ignore the call.

Chapter 326
After a couple more attempts, Thorne gave up.
Charlene went to work as usual. That day, Dalton Ramirez had some business at PrimeStar Technologies, and Stewart was the one to welcome him. Over lunch, Dalton tried insistently to invite Stewart to join him, but Stewart declined as always. So, Dalton left with his own team.
As Dalton reached the parking lot, he noticed Thorne leaning against a car, seemingly waiting for someone.
“Mr. Henderson,” Dalton greeted as he approached.
Thorne smiled. “Mr. Ramirez, here for a meeting at PrimeStar?”
‘Yes.”
Recalling Thorne’s open approach towards Charlene, Dalton eyed him curiously. “And you, Mr. Henderson?”
“Looking for Charlene,” Thorne replied with a grin, glancing up at the PrimeStar building. “She’s probably upstairs, right?”
Dalton pressed his lips together, not quite sure what to say. Thorne sighed and continued, “She doesn’t answer my calls or messages, so here I am.”
Dalton was about to respond when Charlene and Stewart emerged from the building, surprised to find both Thorne and Dalton in the parking lot.
Stewart almost wished he could turn back inside, but they continued walking towards their car, seemingly ignoring the others.
Thorne, however, intercepted them, addressing Charlene directly, “We need to talk.”
Stewart wasn’t aware of the hug Thorne had given Charlene at the previous meeting. He only knew that Thorne had always kept their marriage discreet, not wanting others to know about his rela

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...
