Regretting Divorce Chapter 181
181Claire crawled on her knees towards him. She wasn't thinking straight when she did it, but she lifted his face with her fingers and held him there. Their eyes bore into each other with the intensity of two vehicles crashing with a bang. Then slowly Tyler's eyebrows pinched as he lowered his eyes to her hand. The downward motion of his pupils led her focus to where she was holding him and felt her heart hitching in her chest. She was holding his nape while standing on her knees, hovering over his sitting figure. Claire quickly withdrew her hand and looked away. "What have I done to get this treatment?" Tyler stared at her. From where he was seeing her, she appeared enticing. Her dress was clinging to her skin. Anyone who saw her would have first seen the swell of her breasts, the curve of her waist, followed by the dip of her sexy hips. Her body was a masterpiece of curves. Her skin shimmered with a soft ethereal light even in the darkness like she had dusted her face with a t

182But seeing that her father was waiting for her, Claire ran to him. She snaked his waist by her arms and hugged him. "You didn't have to wait, dad. I would have managed." Mr. Argent caressed her hair, "It's a proud moment for a father to go back home with his daughter from the safe office building." Claire was flattered by his words. He hugged her again before they entered his car. The driver took the rear exit. It was not a surprise that cameramen and reporters crowded outside there too, but it wasn't as much as in the front. When they were happily out on the road, Dominic added, "You have no idea how much my employees admire you. Whenever I go out of my office to take a stroll, I hear them whispering about you." Claire suddenly grew nervous. She knew they whispered about her. Dominic saw through her emotions and pulled her in his arms. "And I've only heard good things, darling." He kissed on the top of her head. "Even today, they were talking about your endurance and how you

183"Sir is..." Reggie trailed off, making her breaths hitch. "Fine, although we are trying to get him out of his bedroom. He hasn't stepped out since that night." Claire's chest shivered. She pressed lips to suppress a cry of worry as she told Reggie, "Please, get him to switch his phone on. Maybe I can help a little." "I'm afraid I can't do that even if I want to. He has broken his phone and a lot of things in his bedroom." "I hope he's fine." Claire gasped while raising a hand to place it on her chest. "I can't comment on that, madam." Claire's heart throbbed in her ears. She was freaking out like she hasn't ever before. "Is he... Is he injured?" She pressed a hand to her mouth. "Umm..." Reggie took his time. "I would be in trouble if I told you this, but I would feel worse if I didn't, madam. Sir rendered deep cuts on his right hand from smashing a glass in a tight grip. He muttered that it was his punishment for slapping you."That disclosure sliced through her heart like

184Tyler's mouth dropped as he gaped at her saying those words. "Good friends? I never said we could not be good friends. But even to be friends, you have to communicate. But you didn't, Claire. You left me hanging like it didn't matter." "I..." She stared at him in disbelief. "I seriously don't know what you're saying, Tyler. When did I not communicate?" "You know exactly what I'm talking about, Claire. The flowers, the message, my feelings... complete radio silence." He stepped closer. Claire shifted away uncomfortably, "I really don't know what you're saying. I really don't. What flowers?" "WHAT FLOWERS?" He laughed frustratedly. "Are you joking with me? You can't really forget it. I sent you fucking flowers with a note in it, Claire. It was on the very day I told you that I like you. Do you remember anything?" Claire reeled back to that day. She had been shaken to her core when he said he liked her. Tyler had come to her life like a creak providing light in a closed dark ca

185Claire's heart stopped beating as everything around her began to throb. The corner of her eyes pained and blurred out her peripheral vision. It was as if all her focus was directed to the man in the center of her vision and white blinking dots squirmed on the corner. "You are joking with me, right?" Her tone was bled dry of emotions, her baritone hoarse like she would cry any moment now. However, Tyler's serious face and how still he was sitting, looking at her reaction to the news suggested that he wasn't. He wouldn't joke with her about such a sensitive topic. Ezma had been everything to him. His first love. He was still stuck on her, and definitely, he wouldn't joke like this and humiliate himself as well. "T-this can't... This... I..." Claire couldn't form a comprehensible sentence as her lungs were aching for oxygen.She felt her fingers turning cold and the tips burned like she dipped them in ice. The back of her neck pricked with a stinging sensation while her forehead b

186"There comes my hero! You're just in time, Tye. I was about to serve lasagna to everyone." Tia Murphy glowed joyfully upon seeing her son. She came over to him and hugged him. Tyler hugged back with a sigh and a small smile. His mother was a little... Overbearing. But she loved him like her precious diamonds. He chuckled because his comparison was inaccurate. Tia loved him more than diamonds. He knew that because once he and Shawn pulled a prank on her. It was around the time when he was a teenager and Shawn was younger. They fake called her as a kidnapper and lied that Tyler was taken down. The price for saving his life was in billions. She hadn't hesitated to sell her diamonds worth billions. It was intimated to them by their father, who was involved in the prank with the boys. He was at the house with his wife when the call came. John Murphy had witnessed her cry and sob as she frantically stuffed her jewelry in a bag to take them to sell. He had been amused too, because he k

187"Tye! Are you okay, sweetheart?" Tia rose from the corner of the couch and hurried at Tyler who was choking on his food."Here, drink water." Tia helped him take gulps of water as she rubbed his back.While she attended to Tyler, Shawn covered his mouth to hide his laugh."What the hell did you do to my baby, you little demon?" Tia scolded Shawn."I didn't do anything. Ask your twenty-nine year old baby if you don't believe me... Which I know you don't!" Shawn made a face.Tia was about to give him a piece of her mind when Tyler held her hand. “I'm fine, mom.” He kissed her knuckles and coaxed her to go back to her place. “You were leaving, weren't you? Why are you sitting here still? Go join the dirty bikers club and soil our name.” Tia glared at her younger one. Shawn rolled his eyes, “I changed my mind, mom. My brother can't carry the burden of our business alone on his shoulders. I'm staying back so I can help him carry the load.”“You will join the business only when you'r

188Tyler spent the night battling with himself. He was amused by the disclosure his brother made regarding Mr. Argent's impression of him. It was... A nice thing to hear.He was described as a playboy on the internet as his PR kept releasing false dating rumors. A few days before he arrived at Bloomcrest, his PR created a controversy featuring him. Despite all that Mr. Argent considered him suitable for his gorgeous daughter. Claire was an epitome of elegance and happiness. She could get any man. Why him? His head ached thinking about it all night. The next morning when he came down to the breakfast table, Tia was absent. "Your mother had a morning yoga class." His father informed, making him exhale in relief. Tyler joined him for breakfast. His father was constantly gazing at him while he pretended to read a report on his tablet. He randomly swiped his finger on the screen, his eyes mindlessly staring at it. He was giving a commendable show of being busy. "You don't have to pret

287"Hey—""H-Hunter..."Hunter sat up straight, his spine erect, and his face becoming white in shock as fear crept under his skin, listening to Claire's voice.He looked at the clock and gulped a shallow breath. It hadn't been more than an hour since he dropped Claire off to her home, and hearing her panic-stricken voice unsettled him."Dove, what's wrong? Is everything okay at home?" Hunter asked and bit his tongue to stop himself from saying— Did Scott do something again?He heard Claire's heavy breathing and immediately got up."Dove, say something!""H-Hunter... I... I..." Claire sobbed, causing his patience to near its end.At once he grabbed the keys to the bike he rode tonight."Don't worry, Dove, I'm coming over." He literally sprinted towards the door.His body was suddenly cold from terror as Claire's sob was making it worse. Hunter had come around the staircase. He was about to descend when he heard her sniff and ask him not to come.He stalled and stared at nothing in th

286Hunter stared at her, thrown off guard by her words. He reflected back on their meeting in the dark alley, and indeed what he realized made his mouth open a little. Mona hadn't looked like she intended to do anything physically with him. Her grin back then had been playful— one that of a naughty child who knew he was notorious for his mischief. "You can say that I was testing your loyalty towards Claire. I didn't intend to do anything mischievous, Hunter. But you see, Claire ruined everything when she interrupted." Her lips lifted in a sneer as she showed him her left cheek.There was a visible claw mark on her skin from Claire's nails. The scratch was swelling, its edges inflamed and red. Hunter felt bad for her. Now that he knew that Mona didn't mean to do anything condemning in the dark alley of the mall with him, he felt the need to apologize to her on behalf of Claire, but Mona beat him to it as tears flashed in her eyes."No, Hunter. I might want to see you with Claire and
Regretting Divorce Chapter 285
285Hunter's body worked on its own. He felt like someone had trespassed into his territory and snatched one of his shirts that Mona was folding.He growled at her as his eyes seemed to darken even more. In the dim lights he came off as a hunter ready to tear his teeth into her skin and kill her. It wasn't a surprise that Mona was unaffected. She just rolled her eyes and lifted her finely manicured hand to blow over her nails."What the hell are you doing here? How did you come inside?" Hunter hissed."I was trying to be helpful as you can see." Mona said while casting a gaze around.Hunter's walk-in closet was a mess. It looked like a clothes manufacturing factory, unfolded shirts lying here and there, some trousers on the floor as if they were dropped just there after trying them on."I don't need your fucking help, alright! Just tell me why you are here and get the hell out." Hunter gritted out between his clenched teeth.Mona watched his knuckles whiten as he fisted on the shirt h

284"If you think that then I'm happy otherwise in my opinion, Reggie ruined everything I did." Hunter smiled a little awkwardly."That's because you're used to having everything done meticulously, Mr. Billionaire. But for normal people like us some mess and chaos is welcome.""Well then," Hunter sighed. "I'll have to make sure there's some chaos in our relationship."Claire chuckled. Later on, they hopped back on the bike and Claire was the one handling it. Hunter sat behind her, admiring her as she flawlessly rode the bike. There were no words exchanged until Claire stopped the bike on the street some yards away from her house.Hunter blinked his eyes as he looked around."Why here, Dove?""Scott's room's window." She pointed as from where they stood they could clearly see that Scott's room's lights were on."Oh." Hunter got down as he didn't need any further explanation.He wanted to drop her at the gate of her house and watch her go inside. But he deemed it was okay if they got dow

283"You'll never have to fight for any right when you're standing beside me. I'll always make sure you're respected and cherished more than I am. I'll also help you with your career, Dove. You can work at your father's or mine— wherever you're comfortable and I'd always come to pick you up so we can go home together." Hunter's voice was like warm honey, soothing and sweet. But Claire had more to acknowledge than just his heart-touching words. The surrounding was one of them. What had been a lake enveloped in a blanket of darkness was now glowing with golden lights. It felt as though the blanket was lifted off, revealing the beauty it had hidden underneath. "I'll always cherish you, love you and give you space. You will never have to question your worth or love for me.... Because I'll make sure I live up to your expectations." The pause he took allowed Claire to notice where they were standing— in the middle of a four post bamboo arch. There were colorful flowers and green leaves

282"Why are we here, Hunter? I don't have good memories attached to this place." Claire's voice was emotionless and a little hoarse."Do you trust me, Dove?" Hunter said over his shoulder.Claire didn't answer right away, and when she did... It was a small nod, although her eyes displayed her uncertainty."Then ask your heart to calm down. I won't do anything that would multiply your bad memories. Not on purpose!"Claire took a lingering gaze at him before she nodded again and carefully got down of the bike. She looked around into the dark as her heart kicked up a notch. All the excitement she had been feeling since the moment she saw Hunter had drained out of her. Her hands turned cold and she stuck closer to Hunter for his warmth. She ought to feel this way, after all, he's brought her to the place where she experienced her second heartbreak— The Lake.The sky was indigo overhead and the air was cool. The silhouettes of trees around made her jittery. Insects chirped menacingly and
Regretting Divorce Chapter 281
281Although Dominic had been reluctant in the beginning, he told his wife that Hunter had called him a while before the dinner. He wanted to come to their mansion for some reason. Dominic revealed that Hunter prepared some kind of gift for their daughter, and needed his help to execute it. His request was to dim down the lights of the lamps around their garden so Hunter could have a dark set-up. And then the next thing that happened was that they heard commotion outside their window. Since their room was on the ground floor, they heard and saw everything. Hunter was in the garden, and he wasn't alone. His guards were there to help him whatever he planned to do for Claire. Dominic and Andrea also read the messages on the cardboards that Hunter held. One can say that Hunter's surprise proposal wasn't really a secret. His In-laws— correction, his ex-in-laws, who were about to become his in-laws again, had front-row seats to the whole thing.They read every message, saw every expressi

280"I know I was once the person Scott wanted to be like. But after what I did to you, his sister, he's lost all respect for me. I know he wouldn't hesitate to stab me the second he gets the opportunity." Hunter paused. "I don't consider that wrong because what I've done is enough reason for someone to put a blade through my heart.""Hunter!" Claire glared at him, but obviously it was so dark that he couldn't see it. But her hold around his neck, it indicated that she was disappointed. "I'm telling the truth, Claire. What do you think? That I'm only committing my mistakes in front of you. If that's what you think then you don't know me at all." The determination in his voice steeled her spine. "Fixing things with you was my first step toward fixing everything I destroyed." "Your forgiveness meant everything because if you could forgive me, then maybe the others would too. My goal is to make things right with everyone in your family, especially Scott."Claire's jaw unhinged. She was

279"Really?" He sounded playful.Claire hummed near his face and cupped his jaw, "I adore how you tackle challenges head-on and always come out on top." She paused, pecked him on the lips and added, "For me, you're a true champion and that's what captivated my heart.""You think too highly of me.""I just know that you're very skillful and...""And?" Hunter leaned in closer, depositing all his wait on her.Claire's lips tugged at the corners. An idea struck and she pushed him away. Hunter frowned at the loss of contact. But the push stirred his thoughts awake and he realized he was here on a mission. "You didn't answer my question!""What question?" Claire asked playfully."About being my girlfriend.""I'll think about it." She got out of his hold as she stifled her laughs.It was dark so she couldn't see his expression. But from what she knew about him, she knew he was boiling on the inside. Despite being one of the most successful men, he was grumpy and had very little to no pati
