A tidal wave of humiliation and despair crashed over Vesta, but she viciously forced it down, maintaining her poise.
She paused and looked at the stranger who had just interrupted them.
It was someone she didn't recognize.
Sensing Dr. Lucas's irritation, the man quickly backpedaled with an apologetic smile. "I'm so sorry, Dr. Lucas. I was just overly curious and completely ruined your conversation. My deepest apologies."
Since he was a guest, Dr. Lucas didn't want to cause a scene. "It's fine," he replied dismissively.
Noticing that everyone in the room was now staring, buzzing with curiosity about whether he was really taking Charlene as his student, Dr. Lucas smiled. He met Charlene's eyes across the room, then addressed the crowd before walking up to the stage with his assistant.
Standing under the spotlight, he beamed at the audience. "Thank you all so much for attending the anniversary gala of my institute. Regarding the selection of my personal student, I had originally intended to formally ask Ms. Ross later this evening. But since the cat is out of the bag, I suppose I'll ask all of you to bear witness right now."
He turned his gaze directly to Charlene. "Ms. Ross—I'll call you Ms. Ross for now, but I truly hope I earn the privilege of calling you Charlene soon, just as your friends do. Charlene, I would be honored to take you on as my personal student. Would you be willing to accept me as your mentor?"
The entire ballroom turned to stare at Charlene.
The vast majority of the guests looked at her with awe and burning envy.
Everyone assumed her current success was heavily reliant on Stewart's backing, likely supplemented by private tutoring from Kenton Wagner.
But Kenton hadn't officially claimed her as a student.
If she stayed at PrimeStar, she already had a career most people would kill for.

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!...
