Charlene stayed at the hospital all night, managing only an hour of sleep just before dawn.
She had just splashed some water on her face when Thorne and Jasmine arrived.
"Minnie wanted to come see you," Thorne explained as he walked past her into the room. He placed a food container on the small table by the balcony, then glanced toward Helena, who was connected to a ventilator. "Still hasn't woken up?"
Charlene shook her head.
Thorne didn't press for more details. With Jasmine needing to get to school, their visit was brief.
That evening, they returned after Jasmine finished her classes.
Charlene was surprised by their frequent visits. She understood Jasmine's concern, but she was puzzled by Thorne's continued presence.
As Jasmine clung to her, her eyes full of affection, Charlene could feel her daughter's worry for her great-grandmother. She appreciated the sentiment, but...
She turned to Thorne. "Minnie is still young. It's not good for her to be in a hospital so often. You should be mindful of that."
"Understood," he replied.
That night, Maisie took over the vigil, and Charlene went home to rest. She returned the next morning, and as she was getting out of her car, she saw Leah, Maureen, and Katie. They looked just as surprised to see her.
Thorne answered without hesitation. "We're married."
His words hung in the air, stunning not only Dr. Lindy but the other specialists as well. Charlene's brow furrowed, but this was hardly the time or place to correct him.
After a moment of surprise, Dr. Lindy recovered. "When did you get married? You never mentioned it before."
"Many years ago," Thorne replied smoothly. "I'll have to treat you all to dinner sometime soon."
After a few more pleasantries, Thorne and Charlene escorted the doctors downstairs. As the elevator doors slid shut, none of them noticed Leah and Maureen standing just around the corner, having overheard every word.

Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
It is now mind numbing excruciating and irritating in the Chinese version where Thorne is ambiguous and now openly again intimate with Vesta, she leans and mutters sweetly holding his arm! And her clan are viciously demeaning Charlene while Thorne is within hearing distance. There is no justice no reparations for Charlene. Utter disheartening this novel is now...
Thorne must have bashed his head somewhere....
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...
