Charlene stopped in her tracks, humming an absentminded acknowledgment. She turned around and asked, “Where are Minnie and the others?”
Thorne replied, “The rain’s been relentless today. Half the streets outside are flooded. The manor’s drainage system has always held up well, but if this keeps up, it might not last much longer. The housekeeper’s already sent people to deal with it. Minnie’s never seen folks piling up sandbags, or rain coming down this hard. She ran outside to see what all the fuss was about.”
Charlene glanced out the window and finally realized just how much water had swallowed up the landscape outside.
Honestly, in all her years, she’d never seen Starfall hit by such a severe flood.
Frowning, she couldn’t help but worry. “Where’s Minnie now? With rain like this outside, you just let her—”
Before she could finish, Jasmine burst through the door, wearing a little raincoat and dripping head to toe. “Mom, you’re awake!”
Seeing Jasmine safe and sound, Charlene finally breathed easy.
But even with the raincoat, Jasmine’s hair and clothes were soaked through. The concern in Charlene’s eyes deepened, her brow furrowing again.
Jasmine, on the other hand, was clearly having the time of her life. She dashed toward Charlene, about to leap into her arms, but stopped short when she remembered just how wet she was.
Charlene wanted to scold her, but seeing Jasmine’s joy, the words caught in her throat.
She was just about to tell Jasmine to go upstairs and change, when Thorne set his book aside, stood up, and scooped Jasmine into his arms. “Upstairs. Time to get you into dry clothes.”
Jasmine let out a little “okay” but then started wriggling in his hold. “I want Mom to help me change.”
Thorne raised an eyebrow at Charlene. “Are you sure? Didn’t you notice your mom’s upset?”
Jasmine blinked, surprised.
She honestly hadn’t noticed.
She peeked at Charlene, searching her face for signs of anger, but didn’t see any. “Mom, are you actually mad?”

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?...
