Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 45
Chapter 45
Before Stewart could utter a word, Charlene heard someone approaching to greet Stewart. While glancing sideways, her gaze met Vesta’s head–on.
Initially wearing a polite smile, Vesta instantly turned icy when she laid eyes on Charlene.
With just one look, she shifted her gaze away as if Charlene was invisible and turned to Stewart with a light smile, about to speak. However, Stewart smiled and turned to Charlene, saying, “This is Ms. Hawkins, Charlene. Would you like to meet her?”
Stewart’s statement carried multiple layers. First, it indicated his close relationship with Charlene. Second, he was aware of the tension between Charlene and Vesta. Third, he made his stance clear. Between Vesta and Charlene, he sided with Charlene.
‘Vesta had no idea about the friendship between Stewart and Charlene, not to mention their close bond. But even though she didn’t know the specifics, she quickly caught on to Stewart’s hint.
“So, Mr. Ferguson, are you suggesting I shouldn’t bother showing up at PrimeStar Technologies tomorrow?” she asked, her tone cold. Stewart chuckled appreciatively, setting down his glass and clapping in approval. “Ms. Hawkins, you’re indeed sharp.”
Stewart could have conveyed his message more diplomatically. But he chose not to.
In doing so, he made it clear to Vesta that there was no room for subtlety. He was on Charlene’s side, and he made his decision for Charlene.
Vesta understood. Yet, she didn’t feel embarrassed or humiliated. In her eyes, PrimeStar was decent but couldn’t compare to the Henderson Group. Stewart wasn’t significant enough to humiliate her. Without another word, she turned and left.
Watching the exchange, Charlene smiled warmly and was about to speak to Stewart when she noticed Thorne, Granger, and Moran looking their way.
Their attention was initially on Vesta and then shifted toward her. They might be surprised to see her at the gathering.
Moran and Granger had shocked looks on their faces, but Thorne’s face was a total poker face. It seemed like Charlene might as well have been a stranger to him instead of his wife.
“What’s up?” Stewart inquired.
Charlene shook her head, smiling. “Nothing.”
By then, Vesta had returned to her group, and Thorne and his companions no longer paid attention to Charlene.
Charlene continued her conversation with Professor Hancock.
After Professor Hancock left, Charlene sipped her drink and noticed Moran smirking at her from across the room. As for Thorne, he turned away from her.
Seeing her gaze, Moran raised his eyebrows and toasted her from afar.
Charlene frowned, puzzled by Moran’s gesture. It seemed Moran was mocking her, implying the issue with Vesta wasn’t over. Charlene’s frown deepened.
Later, having made his rounds, the evening’s host returned and casually asked Stewart, “You know Ms. Hawkins?” Naturally, he was referring to Vesta.
Stewart replied with a smile, “Sort of. Why?”
“I chatted with her earlier. It turns out she’s from Riverstone, not Starfall. Her family business is doing well in Riverstone and is
reputable there. But here in Starfall, they’re considered more modest, especially compared to the Henderson, the Harden, and the Albright families. They’re practically invisible.”

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...
