The next morning, Charlene stood up at the team meeting and methodically explained the solutions she’d come up with for all the problems they’d encountered during yesterday’s test run.
Everyone had expected the issues to stall them for another couple of days at least. No one imagined Charlene would have everything figured out after just one night.
Mr. Windsor and the PrimeStar crew were visibly delighted, exchanging impressed glances at her initiative.
The night before, Gaylord hadn’t stayed long in Charlene’s room. Just before he left, he’d asked if she had any ideas for resolving the technical setbacks. Charlene had given him a rough outline of her thoughts. Still, seeing the surprise and genuine admiration on everyone’s faces as Charlene presented her ideas this morning, Gaylord couldn’t help but break into a smile, feeling a surge of pride on her behalf.
But as his gaze drifted across the table and landed on Thorne, his smile slowly faded.
Thorne was watching Charlene too, his head slightly tilted, a faint smile playing at his lips. There was no disguising the appreciation—and curiosity—in his eyes. But there was something else in his expression as he looked at her, something Gaylord couldn’t quite name.
Gaylord’s lips pressed into a thin, tense line.
He wasn’t the only one who noticed. Stewart, sitting just one seat away, caught the look on Thorne’s face and paused, surprised.
For weeks now, Charlene had been at the center of their collaboration with The Henderson Group. Stewart had heard the stories: how, during a recent meeting at the Henderson offices, the company’s president had personally come downstairs to hear Charlene speak. But he’d never witnessed anything like that himself—until now.
So, seeing Thorne watching Charlene with such open interest genuinely caught him off guard.
It wasn’t just Stewart and Gaylord who noticed. Mr. Windsor, Coy, and the others from The Henderson Group—who’d already picked up on Thorne’s unusual attention toward Charlene back at the last team dinner—exchanged looks. Back then, they’d chalked it up to Thorne’s appreciation for talented people. But now, seeing the way Thorne was watching her, they weren’t so sure.
Coy, Thorne’s personal assistant, prided himself on knowing more about Thorne’s relationship with Vesta than anyone else. Now, seeing Thorne so focused on Charlene, Coy’s brows knitted even tighter. Thorne had always seemed to care deeply for Vesta. So what was this look he was giving Charlene?
Charlene, oblivious to all the speculation, finished her presentation and quietly slipped back to her seat.

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?...
