While the lines of worry lessened around Cole's mouth as the ladies seemed to notice his words, Claire scanned his face for visible lies.

He could be lying to fool her. Unfortunately, all she saw was genuinity.

Moreover, he had no reason to lie. He may be Hunter's best friend, he was supporting Claire.

"Nice excuse but my friend and I are not imbeciles. That woman and rape... What a joke!" Penelope said, her words reduced the impact Cole's announcement had created.

She refused to believe that it happened.

She cringed and added, "I'm forced to wonder whether you are involved with Zara to destroy Claire's relationship. Cole, tell me honestly, are you doing this because you are jealous of your best friend having a loving and faithful wife? You want to separate them because you never had a chance at true love. Ain't I right?"

"If you can't say anything good, don't open your stinking mouth, Penelope Baker." Cole hissed out.

His eyes grew darker, and if looks could kill, he would have red

  • Regretting Divorce   Chapter 332

    332Claire had been sleeping in Hunter's car in the parking lot all night.After she had fed him last night, she came down to sit where she had spent four days in the hospital while he was unconscious. She didn't know where else to go nor did she wish to go back to his ward.Sure, the couch installed in the corner of his room appeared cozy and fluffy; it would have seemed that she'd forgiven him if she stayed. She can't leave either because her heart wouldn't allow her to.Hence, she came to the lounge and plopped down on the bench. It was raining again. The winds, though, were quite harsher and colder tonight. Claire was hugging her shoulders when Reggie came and forcefully took her to the parking lot.He opened the car for her, pushed the seats back in the back (for they were adjustable) and created a make-do bed for her."Sir would kill me if I let you spe

  • Regretting Divorce   Chapter 331

    331"Is that only why you came— to talk back to that annoying woman?" Hunter's voice was soft, and his hold on her wrist brittle and forceless. Claire could twist her hand free if she wanted. Well, she didn't even have to twist it. Just the harmless act of pulling her hand away would have done the deed.But she stood there, hung there actually, as she let the hotness of his fingers transfer on her cold skin. She was actually remorseful. What she felt right now was a thousand times worse than what she felt when Hunter was shot."I don't think I should stay. Do you realize it or not... It's because of me that you are—""I'm only here because that useless man missed his shot… Which I'm glad he did. I wouldn't have been able to handle myself if you were here. I can't even think about it.” Hunter sighed as he let go of her hand. "Anyway I won't stop you if you don't want to. In fact, you should just go. You must be tired. Go and sleep."Claire slightly tilted her head to look at him. Hunt

  • Regretting Divorce   Chapter 330

    330Hunter's POV"His head can fucking explode and his brains can spill around like confetti for all I care!" Tia yelled on top of her annoying voice. "He can even die of overdose. What I care about is my son's reputation and wellbeing. He can't just get up and blame the first person he saw."She seethed, “He’s the kind of person who can never be grateful. My son went out of the way to help him despite their indifference but what did he give him in return? A trip to the jail. Such people are better off dead?”“Why did you save him, huh?” Tia snapped at the doctors."Now there, Mrs. Murphy, you're crossing your line." Claire took a step forward as her voice raised. "I'm being polite and everyone here is listening to your bullshít doesn't mean we're scared of you. We're hardly respecting you for Tyler's sake, alright!"

  • Regretting Divorce   Chapter 329

    329Hunter's POVI was utterly scared and insecure at the party when I saw Claire in Tyler's arms. They were very close and he was whispering something to her, making her blush and chuckle. It had made me hold my breaths because it really felt like they would end up kissing.But my body reacted before that. I charged towards them and yanked my Dove out of his arms, and despite her protests, I danced with her.I would never forget the disgust I noticed in her eyes on that night. She had pushed me away like I had skin cancer. What she had screamed afterwards had stunned me. I was really hoping for the heavens to fall apart and collapse on me. I wanted to be dead before I heard that.I don't think anyone's prayer is heard as instantaneously as mine did... Because the very next second, I had felt it— the ache that numbed my mind and made me feel like my head w

  • Regretting Divorce   Chapter 328

    328Claire's POVMy nerves convulsed as Scott came closer, that dark smirk was all that I could see. Rest everything had blurred out.He stopped before me and crouched down to the level of my face. His eyes bore into mine as he wiggled his eyebrows."You caught me, sister! I thought I wouldn't be caught anytime soon. But you're so clever and observant. You looked through me." He smirked harder and I pushed him back."I'm not in the mood to joke, Scott. Tell me honestly. Are you behind the attack?" I was breathing heavily. My heart was torn between my love for Hunter and my brother. What if he really did it? What will I do? Who will I support? It's the man I love on one hand and my brother on another. Though both of them have been getting on my nerves lately, I know they love me.They would expect me to choose either of themselves and I don't think I can make this choice. "Scott, be honest with me. Please." My voice shook as I said please.Scott's face hardened. A grim look took ove

  • Regretting Divorce   Chapter 327

    327Claire's POV I came home with my mom. My goal was clear, I had to get home and make a nice and thin soup for Hunter. I know IV fluids are the best for him now, but I couldn't ignore the aching in my body. The ache that compelled me to take care of him. I wanted him to eat something made by me because I believed something made by me will make him feel better and recover sooner. I was on my way to the kitchen when my mom coughed. I turned around to look at her and I didn't like how helplessly she was staring at me. She gave me a once over and instantly I inferred what she wanted me to do. "I won't stop you from doing whatever you want to do in the kitchen but at least take a bath. You look awful." That's after she said that I noticed the smell oozing off me. The smell of tablets, sanitizer and what not. It made me want to throw out.I darted up the stairs at once and dropped my dress on the floor in the bathroom. The bathtub was filled with warm water and my favorite cocoa butte
