On Sunday afternoon, Jasmine called to say she wanted to come over. Remembering the promise she’d made to Jasmine earlier, Charlene agreed.
The driver brought Jasmine over.
As soon as Jasmine got out of the car, she ran straight into Charlene’s arms, beaming with delight.
After a round of affectionate hugs with both Charlene and Helena, Jasmine excitedly announced she’d won first place in her fencing tournament.
She’d even carried the trophy in her little backpack, proudly pulling it out and thrusting it into Charlene’s hands.
Helena couldn’t stop smiling, showering Jasmine with praise for her talent and determination.
When it came to fencing, Charlene knew she hadn't contributed much to Jasmine’s success. And in the future, she doubted she’d be able to do much more for her, either.
After a moment’s thought, Charlene said, “How about we go out and buy a frame for your trophy later, so we can put it on display?”
Jasmine shook her head. “No need! Dad already had a custom frame made for me before the competition. It’s really beautiful.”
She’d taken pictures, too. As Charlene mentioned the idea, Jasmine eagerly pulled out her phone and showed her a photo of the frame. “Isn’t it gorgeous?”
Charlene glanced at the image. Even through the photo, she could tell Thorne had spared no expense in having the frame made for Jasmine.
Thorne had quietly arranged everything in advance. It was clear how much care he put into Jasmine’s happiness.
Even though Jasmine already had a frame for her trophy, she was still delighted by how much Charlene valued her achievement.
That night, Jasmine stayed over at the Ross family’s house.
The next morning, Charlene slipped her documents into her purse. Jasmine glanced over and caught a glimpse of them, but she was still too young to understand and didn’t ask any questions.
Looking into Jasmine’s bright, innocent eyes, Charlene realized Thorne still hadn’t told her about the divorce.
Charlene hesitated, meeting Jasmine’s curious gaze. “Mom? What’s wrong?” Jasmine asked.

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
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...
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?...
