Chapter 75
Charlene would upset Thome if she dared to make a scene. Given her understanding of Charlene and Thorne’s marital dynamics, Charlene wouldn’t dare upset Thorne. After all, getting on Thorne’s bad side again would make him despise her more.
Hearing that, Laverne felt somewhat relieved. But she was worried that Charlene couldn’t handle the jealousy if Thorne were too good to Vesta.
Regardless of what they thought, Charlene didn’t pay special attention to their situation because the person *sitting beside her was Professor Hancock.
Professor Hancock knew Charlene was at the expo and had made a point to greet her earlier.
They had a great chat at a party last time, and he had been looking for a chance to talk to Charlene since then, but they had been too busy.
Since they ran into each other, he didn’t want to miss the chance. So, shortly after sitting down, he started a Conversation with Charlene.
The table was large, and Charlene and Professor Hancock didn’t want to disturb anyone else, so they kept their voices down.
Seeing Professor Hancock speaking amiably non–stop to Charlene over there, Vesta and Laverne assumed Charlene was consulting with him on professional matters and didn’t pay much attention.
The person sitting on the other side of Professor Hancock joked, “Hank, you can’t shake off your professional habits. You’ve been talking all day, and even now, at the dinner table, you can’t stop.”
Another person laughed and added, “Right? Earlier in the exhibition hall, Hank and Ms. Hawkins had chatted for a while.”
When the conversation turned to him, Professor Hancock smiled and didn’t indulge them, saying, “When I try to discuss technical stuff with you guys, you always send me off to your engineers. What, now you’re not used to me not talking to you?”
Someone glanced at Vesta and then at Charlene, saying, “Who would’ve thought today’s young ladies are so interested in Al, coding, and the like? Times have changed.”
“Indeed,” another person joined in. “After Hank talked to Ms. Hawkins at the exhibition, he told me there are more promising talents nowadays, saying our country’s future is bright.”
“Ms. Hawkins is a top talent from a world–renowned university, a promising figure.”
Hearing the compliments, Vesta humbly smiled. “I’m flattered.”
Being a man of high status, Thorne made Vesta, as his woman, more favored by everyone.
As for Charlene, everyone knew she was beautiful but heard she was only an employee at Stewart’s
corporation. Despite her ambiguous relationship with Stewart, she had no other backing, so they didn’t pay her much attention.
When the food was on, Vesta served Thorne a slice of steak, and he naturally accepted it.
Then, everyone’s chat got rolling, slowly switching over to talking about the potential future for some of the exhibits at the expo.
Someone couldn’t help but say, “Speaking of which, Mr. Henderson, your autonomous car and Mr. Ferguson’s smart traffic programming language seem to mesh well together. It’s got me all excited. Are you guys not considering a collaboration?”

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...
