Unknown Divorce Revelation Beyond Time (Charlene and Thorne) novel Chapter 387

Vesta quickly signed the termination agreement. She promised to pay the compensation within the agreed timeline. When Stewart got the news, he snorted, "She sure acts fast."

The lawyers were handling the rest, and once Vesta signed the agreement, Charlene and Stewart stopped worrying about it.

A few days later, Kenton Wagner was on vacation, and it had been a while since the teacher and his two students had seen each other. They decided to meet up for lunch.

Charlene and Stewart left the office around noon and headed to a cozy bistro. Just as they arrived, they ran into Vesta and Thorne, along with a few others, including Elias Thornfield, the CEO of another leading AI company, Aether Innovations.

Elias and Stewart had a decent relationship, the kind where they could chat a bit when they ran into each other. Elias caught sight of Stewart and greeted him warmly, "Mr. Ferguson!"

Stewart glanced over, ignored Thorne and Vesta, and replied with a smile, "Elias."

Elias knew that Neural Nexus Tech had approached him after ending things with PrimeStar. Seeing Stewart's cold demeanor towards Thorne and Vesta, Elias assumed the breakup hadn't been pleasant.

In the past, Thorne and Vesta would have greeted Stewart, even if he was indifferent. But not today. Vesta's glance was noticeably cooler, and Charlene couldn't be bothered to look at them at all.

After exchanging pleasantries with Elias, Stewart and Charlene headed inside without giving Thorne and Vesta another thought.

Once they were in the private dining room, Stewart remarked dryly, "They just ended things with us and immediately teamed up with Aether Innovations. Thorne doesn't mess around."

Aether Innovations was a big name in the AI world, and partnering with them likely cost more than their previous deal.

Charlene poured some water and said, "Their language system was top-notch last year. It's no surprise they sought out Elias. It's a smart move to regain what they lost by ending things with us."
