Chapter 69
They were at the expo with a clear goal of networking and making connections.
Of course, after Thorne’s arrival, Henley and Laverne couldn’t help but keep an eye on him while networking. They were curious how he would react upon seeing Charlene.
Soon enough, they noticed that when Thorne saw Charlene, he had zero reaction. It was as if he saw a stranger. He didn’t even bother to give her a second glance.
Rumor had it that Charlene had resorted to some pretty low tactics to corner Thorne into marrying her. Thorne had no affection for her. He hardly spent time at home and harbored nothing but disdain for Charlene. It seemed the rumors were true.
‘As the expo was gearing up to start, the staff gave a heads up to the key folks from different companies to make their way to the
conference hall for the closing get–together.
Stewart and Charlene represented PrimeStar in the conference hall, leading the way. Vesta and Laverne were surprised to see Charlene entering the hall.
Laverne leaned to Vesta and whispered, “Seriously? Stewart holds her in such high regard?”
After seeing Stewart bringing Charlene along to the expo, it was clear that Stewart had a soft spot for Charlene. But they hadn’t expected him to be this invested.
After all, Charlene was a divorcee with a child. Despite her beauty, being a catch himself, Stewart could find someone arguably better.
the verge of her second marriage, was beyond them. Why he was so into Charlene, a woman on
Vesta remained silent.
Though they had made it to the expo, the conference hall seating was limited. Their company hadn’t provided any exhibits, which meant seating in the back rows. However, Thorne had arranged for Vesta to sit in the front row with him.
Hearing that, Henley couldn’t help but chuckle. Charlene was there, yet Thorne had Vesta sit with him.
Laverne laughed, adding, “I heard Kenton will give a speech later. Scoring a front row seat means we’re more likely to get a word in with
him.”
Of course, Vesta was well aware of this.
Seeing Charlene and Stewart settling down in a middle row, Laverne initially felt miffed. But then, knowing Vesta got to sit before her she instantly felt better.
Vesta, of course, noticed Charlene and Stewart. As she passed by Charlene with Thorne, she acted as if Charlene was invisible, not sparing her a glance.
Charlene and Stewart noticed them but didn’t pay
much mind.
However, someone nearby mentioned with envy, “I heard Mr. Wagner is sitting in the front row. Being in the front row means you can speak to him. How envious.”
“Indeed.”
Charlene and Stewart exchanged glances.
Stewart leaned in and whispered, “Don’t worry. She won’t catch his eye even if she gets a chance to meet Mr. Wagner.”
Stewart had a fair idea of Vesta’s professional level since they met for the first time.
Charlene understood his point but countered, “What if she’s hiding her true abilities?”
Stewart was momentarily speechless. That was a possibility he had considered, but could it be true?
While he mulled over that, the host took to the stage to start his talk. Shortly after the host concluded his lengthy address, he announced, “Please welcome Mr. Kenton to the stage to deliver his speech!”

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...
