Chapter 43
When they arrived, the banquet hall was almost full of people, buzzing with the chatter of guests who had gathered for the evening’s festivities.
With her stunning looks and elegant demeanor, Charlene instantly caught the attention of many guests as she entered.
The host, who knew Stewart well, gave them a warm greeting as they walked into the hall.
Just as he was about to exchange pleasantries with Stewart and Charlene, new arrivals at the entrance caught his eye, causing a brief moment of stunned silence.
The other guests shared his reaction, turning their heads in surprise and delight at the sight of the newcomers.
With their backs to the entrance, Charlene and Stewart were unaware of the cause of the commotion. Driven by curiosity, they were about to turn around when the host excused himself with an apologetic glance and hurried toward the door.
“Mr. Henderson, Mr. Harden, Mr. Albright-”
Hearing those names, a hunch formed in Charlene’s mind. She turned around, and her smile slightly faltered at the sight.
It was Thorne, Granger, and Moran, as she had suspected. But what caught her off guard was the presence of Vesta, donned in the breathtaking lavender gown she had admired in a boutique the day before, worth over thirty million!
Tall and statuesque, Vesta wore the gown with effortless elegance and allure, making her appear seductive and untouchable. “Can you believe it? Thorne, Granger, and Moran hardly attend these events! What brought them out tonight?”
“And who’s that stunning woman with them? Could she be Thorne’s lady? That ravishing and unapproachable aura is out of this world. Only a top dog could have such exquisite taste. If I could have a woman like that, I’d gladly trade years of my life!”
“But I was more taken by the lady in the beige dress. Her aura is so pure, serene, and radiant. She seems rarer than the boss’s woman, but alas, she has a date.”
Then, an exclamation cut through the murmur. “My God, that dress! I saw it yesterday and got blown away! I heard it was custom–made by a big shot for his girlfriend. I wondered who it could be, and it turned out to be Thorne! Thirty million, can you believe it?”
“What? Thirty million?”
After hearing that, Charlene’s gaze softened.
Seeing the dress on Vesta had led her to suspect it was a gift from Thorne. Despite their growing fortune, the Hawkins family couldn’t justify such an extravagant expense for a single event, but for Thorne, thirty million was a mere trifle.
It was clear that Thorne had put much thought into this gesture for Vesta. The dress was ordered half a month in advance, meaning he planned to bring Vesta to the banquet from the beginning.
Aware of Thorne’s usual disinterest in social gatherings, Stewart found the coincidence surprising. And then, Thorne had brought Vesta
along.
Worried, Stewart glanced at Charlene. “Charlene…”
Charlene offered a reassuring smile, shaking her head gently. “I’m fine.”

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...
