Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 69

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!”
