"Ms. Hawkins."
As Dalton approached, Vesta offered him a polite, reserved smile. "Mr. Ramirez."
Dalton glanced around before asking, "Why are you here on your own? Where's Mr. Henderson?"
Vesta gestured in a direction across the room. "Thorne's over there, talking business."
Dalton followed her gaze, but his attention soon drifted back to her face. After a brief hesitation, he couldn’t keep his curiosity in check. "You don’t look like you’re having a good evening, Ms. Hawkins. Did something happen?"
Vesta’s smile faltered.
Noticing her change in demeanor, Dalton pressed on. "Is it because of Charlene?"
Before Vesta could respond, Dalton cast a frosty glance across the room in Charlene’s direction. "Someone like her, managing to get ahead the way she does—sometimes I think the world really isn’t fair. Even Mr. Kenton and his wife seem quite taken with her."
Vesta truly wasn’t in the best of moods tonight.
And yes, it did have something to do with Charlene.
But not for the reasons Dalton assumed.
In truth, she was anxious that Charlene’s dual identity—as Kenton’s protégé and as the founder of PrimeStar—would be revealed at tonight’s event.
For days she’d been tightly wound over this, and now, the tension was almost unbearable.
Hearing Dalton’s words, Vesta realized he’d completely misread the situation. Still, she didn’t feel the need to correct him. In fact, his presence provided a small measure of relief from the anxiety that had been gnawing at her all evening.
At that moment, Thorne returned.
He noticed Dalton and greeted him with a smile. "Mr. Ramirez, I didn’t expect to see you here."
Dalton nodded coolly. "Just came over to chat with Ms. Hawkins for a bit. Since you two have business, I won’t intrude."
Thorne replied politely, "You’re never an intrusion, Mr. Ramirez."
But Dalton excused himself and moved on.
Perhaps thinking she was eager to speak with Kenton, Thorne said, "You’ve been waiting a while, haven’t you? Let’s go over and say hello to Mr. Kenton and his wife."

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?...
