The next morning, Thorne Henderson, Jasmine Henderson, and Vesta Hawkins arrived early at the sports arena where Jasmine's competition was set to take place.
Shortly after, Granger Harden and Daisy joined them. Jasmine waved when she spotted them. "Granger, Daisy, glad you could make it!"
Daisy approached Jasmine with a reassuring smile and shook her hand. "Ready for the big game, Minnie? You nervous at all?"
Jasmine was calm and collected, shaking her head. "Nah, not really."
Granger had other pressing matters to attend to. He was only there to drop Daisy off.
Thorne, noticing Granger’s urgency, said, "Don’t worry, I’ll look after Daisy. You go take care of your business."
Granger nodded. "Thanks, I’ll catch up with you all for lunch."
"Sounds good."
Their friendship seemed as solid as ever, but Vesta couldn't help but wonder...
She observed them quietly. If Thorne knew about Granger's feelings for Charlene Ross, would they still be this close?
Granger noticed Vesta’s gaze and gave her a slight nod, but didn't speak. He turned and left, leaving Vesta with a wry smile. Ever since Granger took a liking to Charlene, he’d grown noticeably distant from her.
Meanwhile, across town, Charlene was at home when she received a call from Stewart Ferguson. "Hey, my folks and I are heading out for lunch. They haven’t seen you in a while and have been asking about you. Would you like to join us?"
Charlene hadn’t seen Stewart's parents, Hector and Darleen Ferguson, in quite some time so she agreed. As lunchtime approached, she drove over to the restaurant.
When she arrived, Stewart and his parents were just getting there too. Darleen greeted her warmly, holding Charlene's hand. "It’s been too long, Charlene. You look wonderful as ever."
As they chatted, Moran Albright pulled up and paused when he saw Charlene with Stewart and his parents. He seemed surprised, but Charlene’s smile faded slightly and she quickly looked away.
"Okay." Moran realized his gossip wasn’t hitting the mark with Thorne. Still itching to share, he decided to message Vesta and Granger in their group chat.
By this time, Thorne, Vesta, and the others had arrived at their lunch spot, just as Granger rejoined them. Seeing Moran's notifications, Granger and Vesta checked their messages.
When Vesta read that Charlene was with Stewart and his parents, she assumed her recent conversation with Darleen had influenced their meeting. She thought maybe they were giving Charlene a little reality check.
But then Moran sent another message.
"Darleen was all smiles, calling Charlene by her first name like she’s a daughter-in-law already. Looks like they genuinely like her, and things might be getting serious between her and Stewart!"
"Remember at Irma's birthday, Darleen mentioned she’d be ready to plan their wedding whenever they were. I thought she was joking, but it seems she was serious!"
Vesta froze upon reading that. As she processed the information, her expression shifted dramatically.

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...
