Monday morning, Charlene had just reached the lobby of her office building when she nearly bumped into Gaylord, who was arriving for work as well.
Gaylord greeted her with a smile. “Morning.”
“Morning,” Charlene replied.
No sooner had she spoken than she spotted York across the lobby.
Seeing him, Charlene slowed her steps for a moment.
Gaylord noticed York too, and a frown creased his face.
York, seemingly unconcerned with Gaylord, walked directly toward Charlene. “I got back early yesterday morning. It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other, so I wanted to stop by and say hello.”
He really did just want to see her—nothing more.
Sensing her distance and not wanting to make things awkward or have her grow annoyed with him, York added quickly, “You look busy. Don’t mind me. I’ll be on my way in a minute.”
Charlene had said everything there was to say to York. Now that he’d shown up out of the blue, she honestly didn’t know what to say anymore.
So when he gave her an out, she took it. She nodded briefly, then turned and headed for the stairs.
Gaylord shot York a glance, then hurried to catch up with Charlene.
York watched her retreating figure for a long moment before turning and heading back to his car.
Inside his car sat a bouquet of flowers. He’d intended to give them to Charlene, but seeing how things were, he realized that if he actually handed them over, she’d probably start avoiding him altogether.
The thought drew a self-deprecating smile from York’s lips.
Upstairs, Gaylord pressed the elevator button, joining Charlene inside.
Noticing him watching her in silence, Charlene looked up. “What’s on your mind?”
“Nothing,” Gaylord replied, shaking his head.
But after a pause, he couldn’t help himself. “Does Mr. Watson ask to meet you often?”

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
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....
Seriously speaking story seems to loosing its grip.. no point in dragging.. it would be better if story gets wrapped within 600 chapters.....
Dragging and no real story. Mistress is having gala time and getting all attention and poor wife is getting neglected. The story is stuck and not moving...forget about the divorce let alone husband regretting. Boring book...
