Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 453
“I wasn’t involved in the company’s later development,” Thorne said, his voice calm.
At that, Lean turned to Vesta, surprise flickering across his face. “Wait, Vesta, you’re that talented?”
Vesta shook her head. “Not really. The credit goes to the engineers. Most of them were already with the company before I took over. If the company’s doing well now, as you said, it’s all thanks to Thorne. I can’t really take much credit for it.”
Lean grinned. “You’re far too modest, Vesta.”
When Lean first heard that Vesta owed her career to Thorne’s generosity, he’d thought she wasn’t really all that remarkable, maybe even a little mismatched for Thorne.
But listening to them now—watching the way Thorne and Vesta spoke up for each other—he started to reconsider. Maybe Thorne really saw Vesta as an expert in her field, someone even more specialized than himself when it came to AI. Perhaps he’d handed the company to her because he believed she could lead it even further than he ever could.
After all, Thorne was known for his generosity—and his humility.
It made perfect sense that he’d do something like this.
Vesta caught Lean’s compliment and quickly shook her head. “No, really, I’m not just being modest…”
Soon, the conversation shifted and they moved on to lighter topics, swapping funny stories about their time in Goldland.
They’d all studied abroad there, so there was plenty of common ground, and Vesta, ever the natural conversationalist, found it easy to connect with Lean—even though this was their first real meeting. By the end of dinner, everyone was relaxed and at ease, laughter flowing freely. In fact, at times, Vesta and Lean seemed to get on even better than Lean and Thorne did.
Lean was only in town for business with his father, and he’d be heading back home tomorrow.
After dinner, with other plans still ahead of him, Lean stood to leave.
She felt a strange sense of nostalgia—so much time had passed in the blink of an eye.
A business partner was speaking to her, pulling her back to the present. Charlene turned away, focusing on the conversation and deliberately avoiding another glance at Thorne’s group.
Lean took the hint from Charlene’s cool demeanor. Glancing back at Thorne and then at Charlene with her new companion, he seemed to understand something unspoken. He didn’t say anything more, just offered a brief farewell to Thorne and Vesta before climbing into his car and driving off.
Vesta wasn’t surprised that Lean knew Charlene. She’d only glanced at Charlene and Stewart when they’d appeared, then thought nothing more of it.
Thinking back on the dinner, Vesta smiled at Thorne. “Mr. Lean really is a good person—straightforward and easy to be around. I actually enjoyed his company.”
Thorne smiled back. “He is,” he agreed.

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...
