Gaylord had joined the system test this time as well.
Vesta hadn’t expected to see him there. Spotting Gaylord across the room, she couldn’t help but glance his way.
Gaylord, for his part, was equally surprised to find both her and Thorne present.
When he noticed her gaze lingering on him, he looked away, his expression cool and detached.
Seeing his indifference, Vesta just smiled faintly.
Truthfully, she was only here because she had a business trip out of town; she wasn’t traveling with Thorne to Jade City.
She turned to Thorne and said, “It’s about time, I should get going.”
“I’ll walk you out,” Thorne offered.
Vesta smiled at his insistence. “No need, really. It’s just a short walk. You focus on your own work. I’ll call you once I land.”
“Alright,” Thorne replied.
Nearby, members of both the Henderson Group and PrimeStar couldn’t help but whisper to each other about how close Thorne and Vesta seemed.
Stewart smirked dismissively.
Charlene watched silently, her expression unreadable.
Vesta bid farewell to the rest of the Henderson Group with a polite nod before leaving, not sparing Charlene or Stewart so much as a glance.
On the plane, Charlene and Thorne’s seats were separated by just a single aisle.
Stewart, who needed to discuss something with Mr. Windsor from the Henderson Group, noticed how close their seats were and asked, “Is that going to be a problem?”
Charlene shook her head. “It’s fine.”
Gaylord happened to be seated right beside Charlene.
He held out his phone to her.
Charlene took the phone and answered, still standing in the doorway. “Minnie?”
“Mommy! I’m buying you a present, but I don’t know what you like, and I couldn’t reach you…” Jasmine’s excited voice rattled on at the other end.
Once Charlene understood, she replied, “Mommy knows, sweetheart. I’ve just been busy today—my phone probably died and I missed your calls. I’ll check it in a moment. Let me know once you’ve picked something, okay?”
“Okay!”
After that, Jasmine didn’t say much more and hung up quickly.
Charlene handed the phone back to Thorne.
He nodded, murmured, “Good night,” and was about to turn to leave when he nearly bumped into Gaylord, who was on his way over to see Charlene.
Gaylord stopped in his tracks, momentarily taken aback at the scene before him.

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...
