Regretting Divorce Chapter 51
51The winds became aggressive outside Hunter's villa. Curtains rolled and rumbled and everything about the night suggested the arrival of something perilous.When Hunter was done wearing his clothes, he came to the windows to close them. The outside world was fighting against the storm. From the trees to the grass, he noticed, were battling to stay put in their places while the harsh blowing winds tried their best to tear them apart. Hunter saved himself from slipping as the floor was wet. The winds had carried rain inside. He carefully closed all of them and as he began his stride outside the room, the noise of shattering glass caused him to look back. His heart rolled in his chest and throbbed because one of his and Claire's photo frames had fallen down from the wall. Hunter quickly approached it and picked up the frame. This was one of their wedding pictures. Claire was literally glowing like a star herself. Not to mention that her wedding gown was a shimmery white that glimmere

52RavenMoore, Claire regarded her reflection with uninterested eyes. Even though she appeared lethally beautiful in a cerulean shaded off-shoulder gown, she didn't feel any tingles of excitement. Today was grandma Avery's anniversary party. But heart was at unease, her chest quivering with every breath. She felt her eyes burning with the need to let out emotions that had been building within her for the last two days. She may have smiled and pretended to be happy in the old Murphy mansion. On the inside her core was trembling. Tyler's mother's words haunted her. Every time she came across that woman, her shoulders squared and she felt like hiding behind the couch. Though no one could understand her turmoil, it was getting too much now. "Just tonight. I have to endure this night and then I can go back home." She told herself in order to keep the bids of resilience she had left in her intact. She was motivating herself on how to survive the night when Penelope came in. It was her

53Hunter's PovShe struggled under me like a rebellious deer would from the sharp claws of a panther. Each time she made a move our lips brushed together. It didn't take her long to realize that and she froze like a statue. But her eyes spoke. They screamed at me. Cursed me. They also mocked me for cornering her in the dark like I had a right on her. That's true that I don't. But I want to have it again. I want to have my spousal right on her again. I know I must be crazy for feeling this way but I cannot run away from my feelings. I cannot lie to myself that I missed her. I missed every small habit of hers that I have refused to regard when we were together. Only after she left me did then everything came back to bite me in the ass. The trembling of her lips made my heart skip a beat. I knew she would be shaken after seeing me. That all her past wounds will rip open and bleed again. But I can't deny my desperation. I was dying to see her, which is why, when I heard from my manag

54Hunter's Pov (cont'd) She whimpered and pushed me back. Rubbing her arm I held in a scalding grasp, she sneered. "You can't do anything, Hunter MacIntyre. Tyler is not a weakling. You can't take him down. He knows how to deal with a monster like you." Hearing her praise that scoundrel in front of me, a vortex of fury swirled inside me."Don't." I fixed my dark eyes on her. "Don't try it, Claire. I know there's nothing between you and Tyler.""Just because you think it that way, it doesn't mean it's not true. Tyler promised to marry me. He promised to give me a marriage you couldn't." She articulated after averting her gaze. I didn't want to irk her but my lips upturned in a knowing smirk. She looks away when she's lying. "Reject him. He's not worthy of you.""Neither were you and I still married you. What's wrong with trying it with him? He can't do any more damage, can he? You've done everything to me. I don't have anything to lose." I bit into the flesh of the inside of my

55Claire's POV My head throbbed in an agonizing headache as I watched the two men glower at each other. Never in my wildest dream would I ever want them to have a face off. Yet, here they were. Face to face. Fighting over me. For what? Their claim? I scoffed and blinked my eyes. None of them were saints. They may not have let it be obvious but both of them had blood on their heads. That's how the rich become rich. By shedding blood. Sometimes theirs. Sometimes of others. Although I have not heard any news about them both indulging in criminal activities, I can confidently say they had connections with the dark side of the world. After all, a man will not threaten another with such malice if he wasn't a part of the underworld. And surprisingly, both of them were. Hence, I was numb with terror as I did not want them to get into a physical fight because of me. "You do realize that you are standing in my house, right?" Tyler drawled in a pissed voice as his hands fisted on his sides

56I froze in my spot as the sound of breaking and bursting objects boomed. Hunter and Tyler were after each other's throat. At one moment it was Hunter throwing Tyler against the wall then another it was Tyler. While it felt like only a handful of seconds had ticked by, both of them were drenched in blood. My mind didn't shift gears until I witnessed Tyler breaking a flower vase on his head. It sent Hunter a few steps back. He struggled to maintain his balance. When he had it, he howled like a mad wolf and grabbed a broken, sharp and pointed piece of glass from the floor. "Hunter, no!" I threw myself in front of him, staggering him in his stride. I know I shouldn't feel dizzy but that's what it does— the sight of Hunter's blood. His forehead was clad in red, his left eyebrow split open from the corner and the right side of his mouth was swollen. His lips quivered as if he was on the brink of bursting out. Fear fluttered in my stomach because he looked like a monster. "Please."

57He came forward to touch my cheek. I reached out and punched his jaw. He was bleeding so badly that a pool of redness had formed at his feet. Despite that he was steady in his spot, his stance strong and confident. "I never thought I'd say this but I hate myself for loving you. You are my life's biggest mistake. I wish I never met you." He nibbled on his bottom lip and looked down. It pinched my heart. For a tall and powerful man that he was, he appeared helpless and pained by my words. "You have done me enough damage, Hunter. I will kill myself if you dare show your face to me again." His face shot up, his eyes wide in shock. "You can't—" "You know I can do it. And I swear on my dead baby that I will." He came closer while staring at my face. "You will do no such thing." "I will and you will be responsible for my death like you are responsible for my baby's." He wanted to retort but I said, "Go away, Hunter. Just go away." "Just goo!" I yelled, holding my head. Even if

58Three days later,Hunter was sitting in his cabin in front of an open laptop, his eyes were staring at the screen but his mind was stuck to that moment Claire walked past him without giving him a glance while he was bleeding in Old Murphy mansion."What else do I expect— her care?" He sneered and held his head in his hands. “She was honorable enough to not kick me in the nuts for what I did to her.” He couldn't take her out of his head. Hunter couldn't focus on his work either. There were her images from that night and her icy words always reeling back in his mind. He caused damage that wasn't reversible. Even if he offered his life to pay for his mistakes, it wouldn't be enough. "I am sorry, Claire. I was such an idiot. I couldn't see your worth." He muttered to himself while rubbing his eyes. “But I'm glad it happened. If Zara hadn't come into our lives, I wouldn't have recognized my love for you. It was always there between us. You have brandished me as your own and I never

246For Claire, it was a harrowing fifteen minutes of her life. Even the doctor seemed troubled at Hunter's show of coldness."There, it's done. I'll write you down painkillers and healing cream you would require once—""No need, thank you very much."The doctor's jaw hung in daze, "Very well. However, you would still need to take some precautions like protecting your stitches from water and stuff like that for the first few days. Because, Mr. MacIntyre, you're known for your stubbornness…. I'll send you the link to an article I wrote on my blog. Do read it."After he left, Hunter flattened his back on the mattress, his legs still on the ground. He was gazing at his dressed hand when Claire threw a hair brush at him that hit him on the mouth, but not hard enough to split open his skin."What's making you crazy now?" Hunter raised an eyebrow, feigning oblivion."What were you trying to show by doing that?""Nothing." He lifted a shoulder. "But look, my wedding ring is still shining thr

245Hunter rubbed his bleeding palm on her face, cupping her cheek and then going down to kiss her.Claire's breaths hitched as her heart drummed in her chest. The warm blood on her cheek washed over her like acid. Her eyes tore up, enlarging in shock and distress.She didn't get to react to the kiss as it was short and Hunter pulled away quickly. Claire gulped in a deep breath and hated the acrid smell of blood that exploded in her nostrils. "This is just a demo, Dove. I swear I'll cut myself open if you don't come with me!" He whispered like a devil. "Y-you won't do that." Claire stammered and for some reason Hunter was amused by her reaction."Wait! Are you scared?" He sat up, still straddling her while she laid still under him.She looked away. Hunter smiled as he regarded his bleeding hand."Wait, is it my blood? You don't like to see me bleed, do you?"When there was no answer, Hunter did the most unexpected and sadistic thing— He tore her red dress and pressed his bleeding pa

244Claire shuddered helplessly as she awaited the pain of stabbing. She was never stabbed before, but she was well cognizant of the pain of cutting herself in the kitchen.When she was still Hunter's wife and resorted to impressing him with her cooking skills, she had small accidents in the kitchen every second day. Even if the cut was small and the bleeding wasn't worrisome, the pain it brought would be dizzying. However, she was growing impatient, standing prepared to feel the pain anywhere on her body, yet it never came. When she cracked an eye open to see why Tia Murphy hadn't yet stabbed her, tears gushed out and relief she wasn't supposed to feel in this circumstance hit her in waves. Loud gasp left her mouth as she lifted her face, stunned, shivering in shock and love blooming for Hunter in her chest, her eyes glistening with tears, fingers twitching while her heart somersaulted. How would she feel the pain from the stab when he was holding the knife in his tight grip! Cla

243"I want to see that bitch now!" Those words swept over Claire like hot water, scalding her skin with goosebumps. It was followed by a monstrous growl, one that seemed to make every object in the hall shake in its intensity. Then words, like the striking of dangerously sharpened katana, were delivered by none other than a fuming Hunter. "Avery, either you put a leash on her corrupted mouth or I strangle her throat unless she's dead!" Hunter threateningly stepped towards the person in question who scoffed uncaringly."First you put a leash on your fúcking mouth, MacIntyre. You're talking to my mom. Be respectful... Or else," Tyler came to view. Claire watched him put a hand on Hunter's chest and thrust him back. Hunter didn't budge though. He stood on his spot, his back to Claire. But it wasn't difficult to envision his facial expression. Claire knew how he looked when he was super mad. She could see his jaw ticking as he tried to keep his fury in control. His dark eyes growing

242Claire sat quietly. She wanted to cover her ears so she wouldn't hear grandma extol her arrogant ex-husband. Anyway, she endured it with a straight face. "I haven't visited Bloomcrest in a while but I have many friends there. To be blunt, I have many eyes and ears to see and hear for me. They told me Hunter's appearance after your divorce and one of them claimed that Hunter was resorting after bringing you back. That was quick. As a woman who was oppressed by her husband all her life, I felt inclined to see Hunter redeeming himself for you." Grandma paused for a break. "And I really admired Hunter.... Way before he started having a problem with my grandson. He made me realize not all men are the same. Some own up to their mistakes and want to make amends. That's the reason why I decided to play cupid in your lives, Claire." "But what you're doing now...." Grandma eyed Claire disapprovingly. "I think it's a bit too much. In fact, it's a lot. You're being unfair to him and yours

241Night has settled in. The fog was billowing like aurora lights in the air, outside Claire's window. She sighed lazily as she slumped back in the chair, removing her hands from the window sill to comb her hair back.She spent the whole day after that encounter with Hunter in her room. Claire didn't dare leave the space she had grown comfortable in. She feared crossing paths with her ex-husband again... Worried that his captivating looks might draw her back into his arms.She didn't want that. Even if her heart and body were against her thoughts and wanted nothing more than melting in his arms, she didn't want that.She was looking outside boringly when her stomach churned. Touching a hand on her belly, Claire pouted.Grandma Avery had surprisingly disappeared since morning, Claire couldn't bring herself to go in the kitchen and ask for some food. She guessed that the reason for the old woman's vanishing was her. Her kiss with her grandson, and the hurt it might have brought to the

240Bloomcrest,Cole scratched his head angrily as he blew out a breath."What the hell are these two up to? When did they go to RavenMoore?"He had his laptop in his lap, sitting in his apartment. He hadn't been able to connect with Hunter since that night he came back home to tell him that he made a huge mess. Cole was maddened that night. How could Hunter be so stupid?No guy in his sane mind would tell his woman about the times he tried to cheat on her. To say Hunter broke it on her when she was at her lowest point mentally. Claire's reaction was natural. In fact, she was very soft and leniently handling him.... At least, that's what it seemed unless he saw the images of her and Tyler kissing each other while Hunter was sitting on his knees in front of them. Claire was taking her revenge with a fervor. "Damn, this is not good. Claire is ruining her reputation because of this idiot!" Cole shook his head. He searched in depth and his jaw unhinged in a moment of disbelief. "Is th
Regretting Divorce Chapter 239
239"Oh my..." Claire's mouth slackened as her eyes widened in pure shock.Her feed was full of posts worshipping Hunter and his attempt to apologize to her at the tourist spot. Fan edits were mind boggling. They made a crown on his head and captioned the picture with cheesy lines and dialogues from novels and series like he wasn't sitting on his knees apologizing to his ex-wife for cheating on her. They made it seem like he was saving the world by going on his knees.The more she scrolled, the more astonishing the edits became.Claire didn't even try to go near the comments section. Almost every second post was stuffed with thousands of comments. Had Hunter not been a celebrity billionaire, she would have assumed it was his PR doing this thing to elevate in the eyes of the society.But Hunter needed no such thing. People liked him for being himself, and Claire was aware that the only time he required his PR was to help him remove unnecessary rumors surrounding him for no reason.While
Regretting Divorce Chapter 238
238Claire was unable to breath. Her skin was burning even though he wasn't touching her anywhere. Her brows furrowed. He. Wasn't. Touching. Her. Why? She gazed in his eyes and saw the answer. He was hurt. He. Was. Hurt. His hands trembled at his sides. Hunter had never wanted anything more than to touch her after he realized he loved her. However, last night was painful. He counted hours, his ears on high alert, hoping to hear any sound coming from her room. But all he heard was Tyler leave— three hours later. Hunter's teeth clenched recalling Tyler Murphy's parting remark. "It was fun, Claire! We should do it often."It's not like Hunter didn't know what they were doing, but Tyler making it obvious through his remark exhausted his remaining battery percent on love meter that he was left with. The somberness whipped into his features was the outcome of exhaustion he suffered last night. "We can continue this game in our country and I have a feeling you have a lot to catch up wit
