On Saturday evening, Charlene accompanied Helena to the theater.
As they reached the ticket check, a man who had attracted quite a bit of attention nearby spotted them, broke into a smile, and strode over.
“Charlene.”
Hearing her name, Charlene turned and immediately saw Gaylord weaving his way through the crowd toward her.
She greeted him with a bright smile. “What a coincidence! You’re here to see the maestro’s performance too?”
But it wasn’t really a coincidence.
Gaylord had planned this.
At the office, he always called her Ms. Ross.
Other than the day of her interview, this was the first time he’d addressed her by her first name.
Noticing she didn’t seem to mind, he smiled faintly. As Charlene introduced Helena, Gaylord nodded politely. “Good evening, ma’am.”
Helena returned his greeting with a warm nod. “Good evening.”
These days, it was rare to see young people genuinely interested in opera.
And the way Gaylord looked at Charlene while they talked…
As an observer, Helena instantly understood how Gaylord felt about Charlene.
But since Charlene seemed completely oblivious, Helena kept her thoughts to herself.
Seeing that only Charlene and Helena had come, Gaylord asked, “Didn’t bring your little one along? Not a fan of opera?”
At the mention of Jasmine, Charlene’s smile faded a touch.
Jasmine had said she’d be back in Starfall City by noon, and that Charlene should take her out once she returned.
Now, it was already night. Jasmine had come back hours ago.
But she hadn’t asked Charlene to pick her up from the airport, nor had she called to say she wanted to meet.
As the performance neared its climax, everyone watched quietly, absorbed in the spectacle. Suddenly, Charlene’s phone buzzed softly.
She glanced down. It was a message from Thorne.
“Grandma’s feeling much better now. Thank you for visiting her so often at the hospital. Are you free on Monday?”
Charlene only needed to see the opening words to know what Thorne really meant.
Sure enough, as she read on, it was exactly as she’d expected: Thorne wanted to arrange their divorce.
She picked up her phone and typed back, “Yes, I’m free.”
His reply came almost instantly: “Great. See you in the morning.”
Charlene didn’t reply again. She slipped her phone back into her purse and turned her attention to the stage.
The show had just reached its most dazzling moment. Gaylord, eager to discuss it with her, glanced over. But when he saw Charlene’s expression, the words caught in his throat. The smile faded from his face.
He realized, all of a sudden, that Charlene’s mind was elsewhere—and her mood had darkened.

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...
