Chapter 20_Regretting Divorce

Chapter 20

 J

 seing her twisted expressions and hearing those mind–rotting words, ire felt a shockwave pass through her. Even though she was aware of what ie said, it still sounded disgusting and heart wrenching to her. She fisted her hands on her side and gritted.

 as she even a human? A woman! She can’t be. Because a woman would never talk like that to another woman let alone do it.

 nless the woman is a loose woman. And to say, Zara seemed to be godmother of them all

 You can never win from me. ire stated

 Haha, you cannot win what is already a lost battle, ire. This was a one sided battle from the very beginning. Don’t embarrass yourself more. He a ood girl and stop thinking about Hunter. Divorce lum and find yourself another guy. Zara said haughtily.

 You better alter your intentions. Hunter will never be yours as I will not let your n work.”

 Really?” Zara raised an eyebrow while her lips upturned into a smirk resembling Pennywise’s smirk from IT.

 Let me give you a reality check. Perhaps then you will realize what you’re doing is pure self–humiliation.”

 Zara sat the bowl of fruits aside. She scratched her both hands with her broken and chipped nails, causing blood to ooze out. ire’s mouth hung open as she witnessed the mad </bdy pinch her bruised lips. It glistened with newly emerging blood on the corner of her mouth. It slipped down to her chin, resting there before it fell on her breast on her blue patient’s gown.

 ire’s heart was rapidly beating. She couldn’t decipher what had suddenly gotten into Zara that she was doing this. She hissed and whimpered from the pain but continued to hurt herself. After scratching her left cheek until it bled, she offered a satanic grin..

 She looked to her side on the table beside the fruit bowl and picked up something. There was something glowing in her hold. When ire observed it closely, it dawned on her that she had a ring. A diamond ring glowing with eye–blinding radiance simr to hers.

 “Do you know what this is? It’s a promise of marriage given by Hunter to me.

 “You’re lying?” ire’s breaths hitched.

 There’s no way Hunter would give her a ring. At least… Not yet. Giving a woman a ring meant promising her marriage in their society. Hunter was married to her. He had a wife. He would never do that.

 ire almost believed it to be a bluff until Zara mentioned. He bought me this ring on the day you boastfully imed to the journalists that everything is good between you and your husband.”

 “That’s a lie.” ire’s fingers twitched

 It couldn’t be true.

 “I barely shed five fake tears after you called me a widow whore that his heart bled for me. Hunter went out at once and bought this ring” Zara smirked.

 “It will upset you to know that he put this on my finger himself. On my ring finger.”

 “You lying slut!”

 Anger like a sharp knife cut in ire’s gut. Her chest blistered with searing agony and exasperation. She charged towards Zara, grabbing her hand to snatch the ring away.

 That is when Zara smirked again, rendering her frozen. Then the next moment, she seized ire’s wrist pulling her on herself so that it looked like ire was attacking her.

 “What the hell are you… ire was stunned when Zara streamed on top of her lungs.

 “ire, please, please d–don’t hurt me. Ahhhh! ire, I swear I am not manipting Hunter, I swear to god

 ire’s mouth hung in incredulity as Zara started screaming those nonsensical words. She tried to snatch her hand back but Zara’s grip was taut like iron manaries around her wrist.

 “Zara, let go.” She managed to say, her words halfborious as she struggled to pull her hand back.

 “No, please, ire, I swear! I swear I will leave. I will go far away from you and Hunter. Please, don’t hurt me. Please, it hurts too much.” She said amidst sobbing while her face was set in an evil smile.

 Chapter 20

 ire was amazed by her theatrics. She just stared at her, wondering if someone could really be this scheming.

 She was lost in thoughts when a hand shoved her back by her shoulders. She came to a screeching stop as her mouth opened on a gasp. ire missed a painful fall by mere inches as two arms held her by the elbows from the back, stabling her.

 “Bloody hell ire heard the zing exmation.

 Her eyesight had been blurred by unwanted tears when she was shoved back. She fluttered hershes and tried to focus on the scene unfolding before her. A pang of pain shot through her chest as Hunter was possessively and restlessly cupping Zara’s cheeks.

 “God” Who did this to you, Zara?” The concern in his tone froze her.

 While ire never experienced this for herself from the very man who was her husband, she not only saw him caring for another woman but also looking at her so possessively as if she was his prized possession.

 “H–hunter, p–please… Please tell ire that I am not. I am not h–here to destroy your marriage. P–please tell her I’m not evil. I didn’t… I didn’t…” Zara hyperventted as her fingers shook uncontrobly

 She seemed to be having a panic attack. But knowing that it was all a pretense, ire scoffed.

 “What ar

 a nice actor you are, huh! You definitely deserve an Oscar for this.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

 Hunter’s head swung around, making ire’s body freeze with terror. The redness of his eyes and the rigid expression on his face made her eyes water. She was seeing Hunter, but he didn’t strike her as the man she was acquainted with as her husband.

 “H–hunter, I didn’t ce here on purpose. I swear I didn’t M–my, my h–husband’s death… M–my inws brought me here… They wanted to…. Clifford’s f–funeral… They wanted to… She drew in ragged breathing.

 Hunter turned to her at once and pulled her face against his chest.

 He pressed his lips that he was keeping from trembling from anger to her hair and held her close

 “You don’t have to justify yourself to anyone, alright! The fact that I know everything is enough, and what I think should matter to you. Not any random person’s incessant judgement.” He said in a scratchy and taunting voice.

 “Now breathe. Breathe Breathe, Zara, Take deep breaths. He started rubbing her back.

 “B–but s–she’s your wife, Hunter. I can’t Can’t h–have her d–doubt me. P–please… Tell her… S–she’s your wife… T–tell her…

 “Stop this nonsense, Zara Unable to see the drama unfolding in front of her, ire freed her from the arms of the person who was still not recognized by ler.

 She stormed towards the bed next to Hunter and gripped Zara’s shoulder to detach her from her husband.

 “You can fool Hunter with this act of yours but not me. Hunter, she’s faking it. She told me she’ll give me a reality check and-”

 JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!!” ire was taken off guard as he yelled at her.

 She bit back a sob as she noticed his dark eyes ring at her usingly.

 “Hunter” ire’s throat ached while taking his nam

 He eyed her disdainfully before looking at the person behind her.

 “Just take her out now, Cole. Or else I’ll do something that I’d regret

 Two arms were on her elbows again, pulling her hackwards. However, Chire couldn’t take her eyes off Hunter. He was her husband, wasn’t he? Then why the disdainful look for her? She wasn’t lying or pretending to be hurt. She was indeed hurt

 But that woman he was protectively holding to his chest… She was the real culprit. She deserved his disdain and res.

 ire’s eyes shifted to Zara’s face and she found her smirking against Hunter’s chest. Her hands were around his waist, taking shelter in his embrace. ire was looking at her hands when Zara closed all the fingers of her right hand around his waist except for the middle finger.

 She showed ire her middle fi

 finger mocking her before she sobbed in Hunter’s arins again

 “H–hunter, I am c–cold. M–my m–mouth… My mouth is numb. I can’t f–feel my lips, Hunter. T–tell ire I am… I am not bad. I am. Hunter, m- my heart is hurting.”

 “Hey, hey, calm down. Calm down, Zara. Sahh! Calm down”

 Thest thing ire saw before the door closed was that her husband leaned forward to stroke a thumb on Zara’s lips. He closed the gap between their faces and put his mouth on the bleedinger of hers, sucking it tenderly.
