"Nothing much." Vesta smiled, checked her watch with practiced calm, and said, "It's about time. Let's go."
"Alright," Thorne replied.
After bidding farewell to the others in the conference room, he turned and left with Vesta.
Charlene stayed behind with the rest of The Henderson Group’s tech team, continuing their work.
Ever since Sybil’s medical scare, Charlene had all but moved into the Ross family home, worried about Helena’s health.
That evening, after finishing her tasks at The Henderson Group, Charlene returned to the Ross home for dinner.
No sooner had she finished eating than her phone buzzed with a new message.
It was from York.
[I'm heading back to base tomorrow.]
Charlene read the message but didn't reply.
Perhaps guessing she wouldn’t respond, York sent another message after a short wait.
[See you in a month.]
He was letting her know—once her divorce was final, he would officially pursue her.
Charlene understood his meaning, but still left the message unanswered.
She set her phone down and reached for a book on the table, only for her phone to ring again.
This time, it was a call from Irma Henderson.
As soon as Charlene picked up, Irma’s voice poured through the line. "Charlene, I’ve heard about what happened with your mother. This is such a big deal—why didn’t you or your grandmother tell me?"
Charlene hesitated, at a loss for words.
Irma pressed, clearly anxious. "Fay—your grandmother’s doctor—told me that she took the news really hard and her health declined all of a sudden. How is she now?"
"She’s doing a bit better these last couple of days. Her spirits are up compared to before."
Irma let out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness. That’s good to hear."
Then she hurried on, "Charlene, don’t worry about your mother. I’ll do everything I can to help. I’ll find the best doctors for her."
"Thank you, Grandma," Charlene replied. "But I’ve already reached out to a top specialist. They’ll be coming tomorrow to examine my mom personally."
"Is that so? Well, good, let’s see what they say."
Thorne set his phone down. Jasmine, still eating dinner, looked up and asked, "Was that Great-Grandma? Is something wrong?"
"Your great-grandma’s in a bad mood. She called just to yell at me," Thorne replied.
Vesta, listening nearby, chuckled. "Maybe she just misses you."
"Hardly," Thorne said wryly. "She gets annoyed just seeing me."
…
The next day, when Charlene and Helena arrived at the hospital, Irma was already there.
The specialists arrived right on time.
Leading the group was an elderly woman, even older than Irma and Helena.
"Is that... Dr. Quintin?"
Quintin was one of the world’s foremost experts on organ failure—a living legend in the field. She’d retired years ago; even the most powerful people found it nearly impossible to secure her help. Most of the top specialists in the country had once been her students.
When Charlene had mentioned she’d contacted a renowned expert, Irma had never imagined it would be Quintin herself.
To be honest, seeing Dr. Quintin walk through that door left Irma genuinely stunned.

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....
