"Did you run into him again this morning?" Stewart asked, raising an eyebrow as he sipped his coffee.
Charlene sighed, replying, "Yeah."
Going through the divorce process while running into your ex-husband all the time was a real pain. But since their companies had a partnership, occasional encounters were unavoidable.
After a busy couple of days back at the office, Charlene found herself tagged in a group message by Quincy on Wednesday morning. Stewart was on a flight to another state, so when Quincy explained the issue, Charlene packed up her things and headed out to Neural Nexus Tech with a team of tech specialists in tow.
This was the first time she was visiting Neural Nexus Tech since Thorne had handed it over to Vesta. As they pulled up to the building, Charlene noticed Dalton Ramirez getting out of his car too. He had an ongoing collaboration with Neural Nexus Tech that hadn't changed with the change in leadership.
With the switch from Thorne to Vesta, Dalton's business discussions had a new face, but the business remained the same. As they saw each other, both Charlene and Dalton quickly averted their eyes.
As Charlene, Dalton, and their crew walked into the Neural Nexus Tech building, they immediately spotted Vesta. It appeared she was once again being pursued by a particularly persistent admirer, who was clutching an extravagant bouquet of red roses.
Facing the entrance, Vesta noticed Charlene at the same time. This was the first time Vesta had seen Charlene since learning that Granger Harden had taken an interest in her. Her expression turned icy as soon as she laid eyes on Charlene.
Dalton, noticing Vesta's discomfort with her suitor, stepped forward, "What's going on here?"
Charlene wasn't interested in their drama. She turned her attention back to her team and headed straight for the elevators.
About three minutes later, as they were still waiting for the elevator, Vesta's voice drifted over, "Thanks for stepping in."
"No problem," Dalton replied, concern etched on his face. "Isn't there building security? Why aren't they handling this?"
Vesta nodded in response, "I appreciate all your hard work on the project."
PrimeStar's tech team responded quickly, "It's our pleasure."
Vesta was polite and courteous to everyone, which made Charlene's cold demeanor stand out even more. Dalton noticed Charlene's frosty silence towards Vesta and pressed his lips together in discomfort.
Although the PrimeStar tech team had accompanied Charlene or Stewart to Neural Nexus Tech several times, they had never directly encountered any tension between Charlene and Vesta. Now, noticing that Charlene was ignoring both Dalton and Vesta, and they were ignoring her in return, it became clear that there might be some underlying issues.
An awkward silence settled in as the elevator ascended, leaving everyone to their thoughts.

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...
