Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 411
After their round of golf, Charlene Ross and Darius still had other plans for the afternoon.
Thorne Henderson and Vesta Hawkins had joined them midway but seemed to sense that Charlene’s group had somewhere else to be. Not wanting to intrude, Thorne offered, “We have some things to take care of, so we’ll leave you all to it.”
Darius and Abelard Ramirez didn’t try to persuade them to stay. “Alright then. Next time, let’s all get together again,” Darius said with a smile.
Thorne nodded, still smiling, and left with Vesta.
Stewart Ferguson had actually been worried Thorne and Vesta might tag along for lunch or tea, so seeing them make their exit on their own accord put him at ease. He leaned over to Charlene and murmured, “At least he knows when to bow out.”
Charlene smiled. “He does.”
A little ways down the path, after they’d left the others behind, Thorne broke the silence. “You look a bit down.”
Vesta had indeed been feeling glum after her lackluster performance—twice in a row, no less. And it didn’t help that Darius and the others seemed so taken with Charlene.
Even though she knew they were only charmed by Charlene’s surface, it still left a sour taste in her mouth. But she didn’t say any of this out loud. Instead, she forced a wry smile. “I made a fool of myself more than once today. I have to admit, it’s a little discouraging. Clearly, I still have a lot to learn.”
“You’ve got strengths of your own. Don’t let a minor setback get to you,” Thorne told her.
His words did help lift her spirits a little.
Watching Charlene handle herself that afternoon, Vesta had to admit she was impressed. Charlene was quick on her feet, always thinking two steps ahead—something Vesta hadn’t quite expected.
And she could tell Thorne was also surprised by Charlene’s performance, maybe even seeing her in a new light.
But that was as far as it went. Thorne didn’t seem any more interested in Charlene because of it. On the other hand, he clearly wasn’t bothered by Vesta’s less-than-stellar showing. In his eyes, her appeal hadn’t faded a bit.
Truth was, neither of them had any plans after golf. Vesta realized Thorne had only suggested leaving because he noticed she was upset and didn’t want her to feel worse.
With that thought, the gloom lifted from her heart.
——
That afternoon, a little after three, Charlene finally made her way back to the Ross estate after having tea with Darius and the others.
Jasmine Henderson spotted her coming in and ran over for a hug. “Mom, you’re home!”

On Tuesday, Charlene filled in for Stewart and went to Henderson Technology for a meeting.
When she arrived, Josh personally came down to greet her and Chester.
“Ms. Ross, this way, please,” Josh said politely.
Charlene nodded, following him. She assumed the meeting would be held in one of the conference rooms.
To her surprise, Josh led her straight to Thorne’s office.
It wasn’t an unfamiliar place—she’d worked as Thorne’s secretary before and had been “fortunate” enough to set foot in his office a few times.
It hadn’t even been a year since she was last here, but it already felt like a lifetime ago.
Thorne was inside, sorting through paperwork. When he saw her enter, he looked up and stood, greeting her with courtesy. “You’re here. Please, have a seat.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and 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...
Hey...please dont ever make Charlene and thorne get back together no matter what...he simply doesn't deserve it....no matter the reason or plot twist behind the way he treated his legally wedded wife....whether he actually slept with vesta or not....just his emotional cheating...not repecting his spouse....not caring enough to actually get to know the person his wife was....and actually distancing his child from her mother and encouraging her to bond with the mistress are all the biggest RED FLAGS... when a person enters a contract....he must uphold it no questions asked...its not like if ur partner isnt good enough, ur allowed to cheat..allowed to let a 3rd person in-between....if ur not satisfied with ur partner then u can get a divorce...whats the point of all the wealth, power and brilliance of mind when the ML cant even get his head around this simple fact...So, its fine it he regrets, but charlene shouldn't be with him in any case.....
Enough already. This novel is dragging slowly. Updated with 2 chapters only. REALLY!!! Whoever the author or authors of this novel why is there a delay in penning more chapters? Here’s my question. In reading the comments from others does their opinions matters and/or make a difference? Are comments being monitored? Or is it only a tool allowing readers to blow off steam?...
Long wait to just get an upload of a couple of chapters. Very little progress in the story if any at all! For heaven's sake the story is 453 chapters so far with nothing or little change from where the story began! Show commitment to us your readers and followers please!...
Hi..its my 1st ever time commenting on any story. But seriously....i dont mean to come as rude but are u seriously thinking about the stroy or losing ur grip on the plot and characters...not updating...no story development...no commitment towards ur readers...u just uploaded 2 chapters after god know how long and still nothing to give to the story..if u dont want to write or simply cant then please dont...
The updates are so slow that I forgot the story for some time and just remembered it and read 20 chapters. The chapters are short and the story development is like a snail. 451 chapters and Charlene still couldn't break her image in other's eyes or dealth some serious damage to Vesta and her trash father....
It would be better to say right away that there are 10 chap/month...
Just give us updates already...
We're stuck at this chapter for over 2wks now Very annoying Thorne and vesta having the tune of their lives while Charlene is stuck More annoying...
Updating chapters to this novel is reminiscent of a sloth. There should be a disclaimer when this site states PUBLISH 10 chaps/day....
