Hearing this, Vesta’s hand paused mid-meal.
Nicol went on, “I’m serious. Whether it’s her looks, her calm demeanor, or the way she carries herself—she’s everything I like. And she’s so talented. Honestly, she’s the kind of woman I’ve always dreamed of meeting. How could I not fall for her?”
Maybe because the divorce with Charlene wasn’t final yet, Thorne knew it was inappropriate to encourage other men to pursue her. So when Nicol finished, Thorne just smiled politely and didn’t say anything more.
Nicol had other things to take care of, and their call ended shortly after.
…
After the call with Nicol, Charlene spent the afternoon resting at home. Before bed, she carefully gathered all the documents she’d need to finalize the divorce tomorrow, placing them neatly in her bag and double-checking that nothing was missing. She was just about to turn off the light when her phone buzzed—Kenton Wagner was calling.
“Get ready. Someone will be there to pick you up in ten minutes.”
Tomorrow was supposed to be the day she and Thorne made their divorce official.
Charlene hesitated for a moment. “Professor, I—”
“Could I come by tomorrow morning instead?” she started to ask, but the rest of her words caught in her throat.
She’d been to the institute enough times to know that, for them, time wasn’t just money—it could mean lives on the front lines.
But Kenton didn’t give her a chance to finish. He ended the call abruptly after speaking.
There weren’t many days left in her and Thorne’s required “cooling-off” period before finalizing the divorce. She didn’t know how long this trip to the institute would last. If she didn’t make it back before the period was up, they’d have to reapply for the divorce and start the waiting period all over again.
The thought left her sitting on the edge of her bed, lips pressed in a tight line.
After a while, she snapped out of it, changed clothes, and shot Stewart a text.

The readers' comments on the novel: Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne)
Stewart and Charlene will the best match, both power players!...
Can't wait to read where Charlene will start another relationship... God for is she gets back with Thorne... She needs to be with York or Gaylord (to annoy vesta) or granger (to annoy 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...
