The old woman’s waking hours were unpredictable.
Charlene had been waiting at the hospital with the others for over an hour. When Irma still hadn’t woken up, Claudia turned to Charlene and said quietly, “You should go home for now. If she wakes up, or if there’s any change, I’ll let you know right away.”
Charlene glanced at Irma Henderson lying in the hospital bed, hooked up to a ventilator. She checked her phone before replying, “It’s still early. I’d like to wait a little longer.”
Claudia didn’t object.
Terence and Tiffany stayed as well.
Charlene waited until nearly eleven that night. When the doctor said Irma’s condition had stabilized but that she wouldn’t wake up anytime soon, Charlene finally decided to go home and rest.
It was more than an hour after Charlene left that Thorne and Jasmine arrived at the hospital.
Thorne already knew Charlene had come to see his grandmother. Both he and Claudia chose to stay the night with Irma, while the butler was asked to take Jasmine home to rest.
For as long as Jasmine could remember, this was her first time facing life and death so directly.
Staring at her great-grandmother lying motionless in the hospital bed, Jasmine clung to Thorne’s waist, her face buried against him. Her eyes grew red with fear. “I don’t want to go home. I want to see Mom.”
Thorne lifted her gently and settled her on his lap. Glancing at the clock, he said, “It’s almost one in the morning. I’m not sure if your mom is still awake. Let’s check with her first.”
“Oh… then I’ll call—”
“I’ll do it,” Thorne interrupted softly.
“Okay.”
Thorne picked up his phone and sent Charlene a message:
*Are you still awake? Minnie and I are at the hospital. I’m staying overnight with Grandma. Minnie’s a bit scared after seeing everything and wants to be with you. Is that alright?*
Charlene hadn’t gone to bed yet. Worry over Irma kept her restless, even at such a late hour.
When she was Jasmine’s age, her own grandfather had suffered a serious accident. She knew all too well the fear and confusion Jasmine must be feeling.
She replied:
*Let her come over.*

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...
