Connie grinned, shooting Charlene a playful look. “Just now, Mr. Ferguson said you should be more like him—he had no idea Gaylord was interested in you until recently, but now he’s figured it out. So, what about you? Did you notice?”
Charlene’s feelings were a tangled mess. “Yeah, I did pick up on it.”
But honestly, when Gaylord handed her that drink earlier, she hadn’t thought much of it. It wasn’t until she caught the way he acted around York—the way tension flickered in his eyes, that edge of jealousy—that she realized, belatedly, Gaylord might actually like her.
Connie laughed again.
Then, as if something occurred to her, she couldn’t help asking, “Do they know about your situation?”
Charlene knew exactly what Connie meant. “They know, at least a little. I’ve been married, I have a child, and I’m getting a divorce—I made sure to tell York about it directly. As for Gaylord… I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned it at work, so he should know too.”
The fact that Gaylord knew all that—plus the fact he was a few years younger—left Charlene genuinely surprised when she started to sense his feelings for her.
Connie nodded in approval. “That’s good. I haven’t known them long, but I have a feeling they’re both genuinely into you. Maybe you should give one of them a shot.”
Charlene bit her lip, looking down in silence.
Connie understood she probably hadn’t moved on from Thorne yet. It wouldn’t be fair to anyone else if she forced herself to start something new so soon.
She was about to say more when York strolled over, a plate of grilled meat in hand. He divided it between them with a warm smile. “Fresh off the grill. Let me know what you think.”
Snapping back to the present, Charlene didn’t want to brush off his kind gesture. She set aside her drink and accepted the plate. “Thank you.”
Right in front of him, she gently blew on the food and took a small bite. The whole time, York watched her, his gaze never leaving her face, a gentle smile playing on his lips.
Charlene noticed, and a hint of embarrassment made her glance away.
Still, not wanting to let his effort go unappreciated, she tasted it more carefully and then said, “It’s really good. Perfectly cooked. Thank you for going to all this trouble.”

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?...
