Thorne didn't offer any grand praises about having read her published papers or claim that the award was well-deserved.
After his brief congratulations, he seamlessly shifted the conversation to Jasmine, and the two adults maintained a casual, lighthearted chat with their daughter.
After dinner, Charlene said her goodbyes and got into her car.
Sitting in Thorne's passenger seat, Jasmine watched Charlene's taillights disappear down the street, a conflicted look on her face.
Thorne noticed. "What's wrong? Did you forget to tell Mom something?"
Jasmine shook her head. "No... I just wonder when Mom will be done with work so she can move back home."
She liked the current arrangement well enough—she could visit the Ross family whenever she pleased and return to the Hendersons to be with Thorne just as easily. Still, deep down, she desperately wanted her mother back under the same roof.
But Charlene always claimed she was too busy and that moving back was inconvenient.
Hearing this, Thorne kept his tone neutral. "If you want to know, just ask her directly next time."
Jasmine sighed. "...I know."
But if her mother couldn't give her the answer she wanted, asking was pointless.
...
The next day.
Charlene returned to PrimeStar Technologies. She and Stewart had just wrapped up a meeting and were walking out of the conference room when Stewart's phone rang.
He answered it casually.
A second later, he stopped in his tracks, an amused brow arching upward. He shot Charlene a knowing look before speaking into the receiver with a drippingly polite tone. "Well, if it isn't Director Lancaster. What a pleasant surprise. To what do I owe the honor of this sudden call?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
761 chapters and they still couldn't divorce...
Is the universe against the divorce now?...
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!...
