Engrossed in whatever topic they were discussing, Dr. Lucas noticed that Stewart Ferguson and Charlene were missing from the group and immediately sent someone to invite them over.
Dr. Lucas looked at Stewart and Charlene with a welcoming smile. "What has been keeping you two so busy? Do you have time to chat with us for a bit?"
Stewart offered a polite, practiced smile. "Of course, we always have time."
As he spoke, his gaze flicked toward Thorne and Vesta, the corner of his mouth twitching in a subtle, almost imperceptible sneer.
Charlene naturally noticed Thorne and Vesta as well, though her stunning features remained completely impassive.
When Stewart looked his way, Thorne offered a curt, slight nod in their direction as a standard greeting.
Stewart's smile turned rigid, returning the gesture with thinly veiled coldness.
Dr. Lucas knew that Thorne had been married, but he was completely oblivious to the identity of his wife. After all, he spent most of his time abroad and rarely visited Starfall City.
Observing their exchange, Dr. Lucas instantly picked up on the palpable distance between Stewart and Thorne. Without overthinking it, he found the dynamic rather amusing and asked, "I heard PrimeStar Technologies and The Henderson Group have been collaborating for a while now. How is it that you two young men seem like complete strangers?"
In his eyes, both Stewart and Thorne were brilliant minds in the AI sector and roughly the same age. Logically, even if they weren't close friends, they shouldn't be treating each other with such icy detachment.
The other guests hadn't paid much attention to the underlying tension between the two men.
But upon hearing Dr. Lucas's observation, it dawned on everyone else that Thorne and Stewart truly rarely interacted in public.
Stewart threw a cryptic glance at Thorne before letting out a dry chuckle. "PrimeStar and The Henderson Group have indeed been partnered for quite some time, but we spend most of our hours working directly with their engineering teams. We rarely cross paths with Mr. Henderson himself, so..."
Hearing Stewart's explanation, Thorne maintained a composed smile, appearing to silently agree with the sentiment.
Dr. Lucas nodded in sudden understanding.
Neither Charlene nor Vesta said a word.

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!...
