Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time

As soon as the words left her mouth, York barely had time to react before Charlene's phone buzzed. Glancing at the screen, she muttered, "Something urgent came up at the data center. I have to run," and hurried off.

The next morning, Charlene left the compound early. After a much-needed day at home to recharge, she headed back to work at PrimeStar Technologies.

PrimeStar had recently kicked off a partnership with Henderson Tech Solutions. On the day Charlene returned, Stewart was just about to head over to Henderson for a meeting.

Previously, when it came to hashing out contracts with Thorne, Charlene could leave it to Stewart or Livingston to handle the discussions. But for this joint project between PrimeStar and Henderson, her involvement was essential.

The meeting was all about the core technologies at the heart of their collaboration, so Charlene joined Stewart as they made their way to Henderson Tech's headquarters. Gaylord Hearst and a few other tech leads came along, too.

As they reached the conference room, Thorne, his two assistants, and Josh appeared from the opposite hallway. Thorne greeted Stewart with polite small talk. Since Charlene had left Henderson, Josh hadn't really seen her around. He'd only heard from Coy about her new gig at PrimeStar. Stewart had dropped by Henderson a couple of times lately, but Charlene hadn't been with him, so they just assumed she wouldn't be coming back. Apparently, they were wrong.

Thorne spotted Charlene and Gaylord but only gave them a brief, indifferent glance before heading inside with Stewart. Gaylord was happy to leave it at that— he didn't want anyone knowing he and Thorne had any history.

Charlene and Josh had always gotten along pretty well, so when she saw him again, she gave him a nod and said, "Hey, Josh, long time no see."

"Yeah, it's been a while," Josh replied, smiling.
