Hiii Fam, loving all your response. Answering some of your questions below... 1) i update the book daily but since I'm planning to go on a small trip, the updates are a little delayed. Don't worry, the trip won't cause a hindrance in updates. They'll come asa they're written:) 2) In a chapter earlier, Claire said that Hunter hit her during love making. It didn't mean he hits her fr. She meant the spanks;) 3) Half of u want Hunter as ML, half of u don't. But can u please read with me. I've got something amazing coming up. *Winks* 4) Many of u think Claire has no backbone, I have a cousin who was cheated upon and it sent her in deep depression which took months to come out of it. She loved her man a lot. Claire is taking her time to heal:) Trust-me-u-will-love-her-character-modification. Lastly-thank-u-for-reading. I-will-not-disappoint-u-all:) XOXO~
344The sound was very low. Claire pumped up the volume to max and gulped as she heard a male reporter covering the scene. "I'm reporting from outside St. Jacob's High School, where a tragic and heartbreaking bomb blast took place earlier this afternoon. The explosion happened when most students were still in their classrooms!" The reporter turned around to look at the school where dark smoke was still rising from the building. The east part has crumbled and collapsed. The camera zoomed in on the stretchers being rushed behind him. Many from the emergency team were rushing in and out with stretchers occupied by kids, or supporting teachers on their shoulders whose faces were covered with a gray layer of concrete dust; blood trailing from their heads or body. "As of now, we have confirmation that 55 innocent children have lost their lives. The number of injured is still unknown,and emergency teams are working nonstop to search for survivors and provide help." He paused to see a medi
343The next day was slow and painfully crackling with inevitable sparks between them. Hunter was in heat like an animal. He didn't hesitate to touch her inner thighs, chest, or her hips when they settled down on the table for breakfast. Claire glowered at him in warning many times, and he just shrugged."This is all your fault, okay! You shouldn't have kissed me if you didn't want anything more. You gave me a bite and now I want the whole feast." He said with a hiss and Claire eyed him."So... Should I let you fúck me now?""Absolutely." He said impatiently."You're crazy. I'm going upstairs to eat.""This is not fair, Claire! You shouldn't have started it if you don't want to..." Claire heard his voice fade away as she came sprinting into the living room.She placed a hand on her heart and began catching her breath. Her cheeks were crimson, her skin hot and her thighs thrumming dangerously. She squeezed them together and sat down struggling not to remember the way his fingers fondle
342Claire fisted her hands. This closeness was driving her crazy. With great difficulty she detached herself from him and scooted over to a safe distance."So, you're not shocked knowing that I'm Cara?"Hunter just smiled as a distant memory spilled into his mind. He was taken back in the past, eight months ago, when he first discovered that his wife was the legendary Cara.Flashback…Eight months ago, Hunter was working in his office with a frown. Though his eyes were on the screen of his laptop, his mind was on the recent pictures of Claire and Tyler making rounds on the internet. He was fuming, his mind conjuring images of Claire with Tyler in various positions. Hunter shook his head. He told himself to be positive and optimistic. Yes, he did something wrong, In fact, worse! But that didn't mean it was the end for him. He still had the chance to fix things, learn from it, and become a better person. He just needed to put efforts and push forward because it was going to take lot
341They were in the car going back home. But for some reason Hunter's face was dark and a muscle persistently moving in his jaw. Claire had expected a different reaction from him though. Shock, maybe. Or perhaps amusement (and a little pride too) for being one of the most famous people behind all those gossips in the country- The mysterious Cara.She didn't see any reason for him to be this grumpy out of nowhere. But she wasn't going to acknowledge it. Not even if her heart was banging rapidly in her chest as it wanted to know what he thought about her being Cara.Sure, she saw that look of extreme shock in the room when Kent revealed her identity. That was the only time she saw anything on his face. He was now sitting as stiff as a mannequin while looking out of the window at the world bustling on as usual."So, Cara ha!" He exclaimed and Claire's eyebrows went high.
340The smile from Tiffany's face fell while the women around her went rigid."Oh, I just adore how you're always so… humble, Claire. Not many women could survive doing nothing all day while their husband works hard all day— Oops, ex-husband in your case. You haven't asked for any alimony, have you?" Tiffany said with disdain and the women around her laughed."Why would she ask any alimony when the man is willing to throw himself back at her feet? She must be enjoying everything without having to worry about marriage again. Right, Claire." Someone remarked and Claire rolled her eyes feeling amused."You're absolutely right. I'm enjoying it just like all of you enjoy sinking your claws into men who are already taken." Claire's words made all of them falter. They stiffened slightly but kept smiling."You’ve got jokes, C
339Next day,Claire registered Hunter being very quiet during breakfast. He didn't eat much either. Just a piece of toast, and a few bites of Omelette. Claire took his leftovers as her own breakfast after he excused himself and went upstairs.She followed him after her breakfast and noticed him trying to put a shirt on. She slipped behind him and lent a helping hand. Hunter didn't react. On other occasions, he would have pulled her in the front and tried to kiss him (like he did in the last week and she barely got out of his grip) but today he was absorbed in a deep thought."You look distracted. Everything okay at work?" She asked while buttoning his shirt. Hunter's eyes immediately came to her face. He smiled teasingly as if saying: Didn’t think you’d notice that."Nothing's okay at work, actually. It's a mess and I don't know how to handle this while I'm here like this." He pointed at his helplessness and the fact he was still not allowed to resume work like before. "I heard you
