Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179 

It was a divorce settlement. The first clause demanded custody of Jasmine for him. The rest detailed the wealth he was willing to part with for her. 

She had sought him out to discuss the progress of their divorce. 

Now, facing the divorce settlement, she flipped through it casually without much attention and placed it back on the table, declaring, “I have no objections.” 

Saying so, she opened her purse, rummaged for a pen, and prepared to sign. 

Charlene’s rise to her current status had been marred by dublous means, 

Despite the disregard for Charlene as a person, her love for Thorne over the years was evident to everyone, including Thorne himself and Moran. 

Siven Charlene’s devotion to Thorne, Moran had braced for her inability to accept the divorce, expecting her to be devastated and unwilling to let Thorne go. 

To his surprise, Charlene not only agreed to the divorce swiftly but also raised no objections to Thorne’s demand for their daughter’s custody. This was entirely unexpected for Moran, 

He looked incredulously at Thorne. 

Thorne, watching Charlene, seemed deeply surprised by her readiness to agree to the divorce. 

As Charlene bent over to sign, she paused, retracting the pen. 

Moran smirked to himself. 

He knew it–Charlene couldn’t possibly- 

Charlene stated, “I’ll have my lawyer review this divorce settlement tomorrow. If everything checks out, I’ll sign it within two days and have my lawyer contact you.” 

She had noticed he was willing to part with a substantial portion of his assets, including shares in his company, which she had briefly seen while flipping through the document. In her initial divorce proposal, she hadn’t asked for anything. 

Now that he was offering, she wouldn’t refuse. 

Throughout their marriage, he might not have loved her, but he never set a trap for her. 

Thus, upon seeing his willingness to divide his assets with her, she was inclined to sign immediately but hesitated. 

She worried about potential loopholes in the agreement. 

Should any issues arise with his company in the future, holding these shares might make her a scapegoat. 

Thorne, in drafting this divorce settlement, might not have intended to harm her. 

Yet, she couldn’t be sure that, upon marrying Vesta, Vesta wouldn’t exploit any loopholes to her detriment. 

Thorne, seemingly caught off guard by her wariness, paused before responding, “Okay.” 

Charlene nodded, slid the divorce settlement back into her purse, zipped it up, and without another word, stood up and left. 

Moran watched Charlene’s departing figure in disbelief, turning to Thorne, “Is she alright?” 

Thorne, watching Charlene walk away, only turned back to softly answer, “I don’t know.“. 

“And she didn’t even react to you wanting Minnie’s custody. This is so strange.”

Thorne paused for a while, then replied, “…Yeah.” 

“Dpes she not want Minnie’s custody? That’s impossible, right? Minnie is her pride and joy!” In a sudden thought, Moran asked, “Or, did you guys already settle Minnie’s custody beforehand?” 

Thorne, with a deep and thoughtful look, paused before admitting, “No, we never discussed it.” 

“Damn, then why?”
