Gaylord spotted him the moment he approached. His thin lips pursed in displeasure, and his eyes quickly turned icy as they landed on Granger.
Granger acted as if he hadn't seen a thing and continued his stride towards them without the slightest pause.
He stopped in front of Charlene, turning to her with a composed demeanor, "What's the chat about?"
Charlene, completely clueless about the tension between the two men, just said, "Work stuff."
For Charlene to be chatting so happily with Gaylord, it suggested that Gaylord was quite skilled in his profession. Which meant, compared to him, Charlene and Gaylord probably had more in common to talk about.
Plus, Gaylord still worked at PrimeStar. This gave him more opportunities to interact with Charlene than Granger had. The thought made the smile on Granger's face fade a bit.
He was about to speak when Stewart approached.
Seeing both Gaylord and Granger by Charlene's side puzzled him a bit. But he didn't dwell on it, simply saying, "Well, look who's all here."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than Thorne and Vesta joined them, "Mr. Ferguson."
Stewart's smile didn't quite reach his eyes, "Mr. Henderson, is there something you need?"
Thorne replied, "There's a project I'd like to discuss with Mr. Ferguson, to see if he's interested."
The Henderson Group's tech company was one of the leading giants in the national tech arena, boasting countless core technologies and patents.
Their upcoming product had already made waves internationally.
As soon as Thorne mentioned wanting to collaborate, Stewart knew exactly what Thorne was pitching.
Honestly, Stewart found it quite appealing.
Especially since, as one of the top companies in their industry domestically, they bore the responsibility of pushing domestic products onto the world stage to enhance their international influence.
To truly bring their innovative products to the forefront globally, it couldn't be done by a single company alone.
It required mutual support among companies, collaborating for mutual benefits in technology.
...
The next day.
Charlene drove to the office and had just stepped out of her car when she ran right into Thorne and Coy, who were also just exiting their vehicle.
She paused slightly as she shut her car door.
She knew Thorne was scheduled to come by for a meeting about the collaboration that morning, but she hadn't expected him to arrive so early.
Seeing her, Thorne said, "Morning."
Charlene didn't respond, instead turning and heading straight for the office entrance.
Since Charlene had left The Henderson Group, Coy hadn't seen much of her. In his mind, she was still the Charlene who used to be eager to stick by Thorne.
He wasn't used to seeing her treat Thorne with such indifference. It felt odd.

Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
It is now mind numbing excruciating and irritating in the Chinese version where Thorne is ambiguous and now openly again intimate with Vesta, she leans and mutters sweetly holding his arm! And her clan are viciously demeaning Charlene while Thorne is within hearing distance. There is no justice no reparations for Charlene. Utter disheartening this novel is now...
Thorne must have bashed his head somewhere....
Chapters 480 and on are repeat from previous chapters. What's up with that? Time to stop reading this novel....
Thanks for the update. Keep them coming please!...
Any hope for Vesta being brain-dead?...
Thanks PINKK889 for the info. The same version is also on You tube except dubbed in English and titled “ I divorced my husband who cheated now begging me to come back” Enjoy...
Gosh, this is excruciating ! The slow pace made me leave this for over 3 months. Was just taking a peek and not much development. Btw they have now made this into a 3hr 40 min long drama.Available on daily motion under, the name, next chapter without you. But all the other fringe characters such as York Granger Gaylord are missing in the movie. Ending is very satisfying, practical and apt. She chooses to leave thorne and jasmine and be with Stewart. Vesta and family are inter national wanted Criminals. Not sure if they replicate the same on here. As this book is now on the app for more than 9 months, have a feeling it'll be another 6 to 9 months before this is completed!...
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...
