Chapter 30

“I told you not to mess with me. But no, you wanted to prove how courageous you are. What happened to that courage? It went down the drain, didn’t it?” 

Claire kept looking at the document in front of her. Even if she had cunning things to say to Zara, it was pointless. 

The truth was, she had lost. She lost the battle she boastfully jumped in, hoping that she would win because she was the one who was married for two years to the man she was fighting for. 

It was him who made her lose. So it would be dumb to speak now 

She quietly scribbled her signature on the document and dropped the pen on it. 

“Take my advice, Claire, now if you want to live a peaceful life then don’t cross our path. Hunter and I are inseparable. You will only get disappointment and more defeat if you try your luck with my man again.” 

My man? Claire was flummoxed to 

o hear that. 

Before she reacted with words, both the official and Hunter returned. He looked between her and Zara grimly. As if trying to find what they were talking about. 

The official didn’t let him dwell on it as he handed him two signed copies of divorce certificates. Hunter thanked him and he exited his office with Zara and Claire as some couples were lining outside his cabin to register their marriage. 

“Claire,” Hunter called her name as he forwarded her copy of the divorce certificate. 

She literally snatched it from his hand and whirled around to leave. However, his calloused and hot fingers seized hold of her wrist again. 

“Let go, Mr. MacIntyre Claire said sharply. 

She felt him move behind her. He stopped with his chest pressing on her back. Goosebumps cascaded along her spine. Not. that he had any right to stand this closer with her, she forcefully withdrew her hand out of his touch and turned to eye him, murderously. 

“We’ve been married for two years. Can’t you wait until we exchange our parting words? Why are you in a rush?” 

“I don’t know you anymore. And there’s no need for any parting words. Remember, you eagerly wanted this!” She flashed her copy of divorce certificate in front of his eyes. 

“Celebrate our divorce consider me dead.” 

Hunter opened his mouth to rebuke, “I’m sorry, Claire. This is happening because of me. I shouldn’t have come between you two.” 

He blinked his eyes and scowled at Zara who said those words, 

“You didn’t come between us, Zara, Don’t say that again. He frowned. 

“No matter what you say, Hunter, the truth will remain as is that came in between you two. Can you please move a little so I can speak with Claire. She stepped ahead, between Claire and Hunter. 

Zara took Claire’s hand and squeezed it apologetically in her holl as she spoke, “Claire, I know you hate me for this, but please, don’t hate me a lot. I swear I tried to stop this divorce. But Hunter won’t let me go.

“I am a woman too and know what it feels like to be separated from the man you love.” Zara smirked as she squeezed Claire’s hand tighter. 

It was visible that she was doing this to rub a mountain of salt on her freshly incurred wounds. 

Claire was about to pull her hand back and snap at her that she heard Zara say, “If it wasn’t for his stubbornness then I wouldn’t have agreed to marry him today.” 

“Marry him today?” Claire repeated those words, her eyes stalling on Hunter’s face in disbelief. 

“Yeah, he insisted that we get married today itself. Though I told him we can do it some other day, he wants it today.” Zara pulled her hand to her chest and continued in her deceitfully inpocent voice, “Please, don’t blame me for it. Claire. I don’t want us to be enemies in the future because of our marriage. It’s Hunter who wanted all of this. Otherwise L… 

Claire was too numb to hear anything ahead. She blinked back the tears forming and smiled. 

“Congratulations to you both then.” 

“Thanks. By the way, can I ask you something if you don’t mind 

Yanking her hand out of Zara’s clutch, Claire locked eyes with Hunter as she replied to Zara 

“Why not?” 

“Hunter didn’t buy me a ring. I mean, he intended to buy a new one for me but then we remembered that the rings you and he exchanged were my dream rings. They were designed for our wedding. Although he has his wedding ring, the one that was mine is on your finger… Zara trailed off, causing Claire to bring her eyes to her. 

She arched her eyes, allowing Zara to go ahead with her demands. 

She already said so much. Why was she hesitating now? 

“So… If you don’t mind- 

“Why will I mind? This is your ring. It was made for you. It belonged to you always. I’ve been unknowingly cherishing stuff that wasn’t mine from the start. Claire sneered without taking her eyes off Hunter. 

She took off the ring with her other hand and slapped it on Zarak palm. She was violent. But still, neither Zara nor Hunter reacted to it 

I’m sorry, Claire, I didn’t- 

“I hope you don’t get treated like me. Have a happy married life. 

Hunter swallowed hard over those words. He was about to move Zara aside and talk with Claire when she spun around and exited. He kept staring unless she disappeared from his sight, leaving his heart pounding. 

Swallowing again, he regarded Zara with a steely gaze, confidential.” 

Why did you tell her about our marriagel–fold you it would be 

He ran a hand through his hair. Since he assured Zara that he would marry her, she had been bright and joyful. Her health has recovered completely and so to keep it that way, when she asked when they would get married, to prevent her from bothering him again and again with the question, he said that it would be on the same day he and Claire receive their divorce certificate. 

Now as he thought about it, a heavy feeling seuled in his chest. Why did he say it to Zara? 

Above all… Of all people, Claire had to know it first. He felt his heart racing in his chest, thinking about what Claire would 

think now.

“And the ring.” He heaved a heavy sigh. It was clear that he was controlling his irritation. “I told you I ordered a similar ring for you. You didn’t have to take it from her, Zara” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Zara lowered her head as tears formed in her eyes, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to offend you or Claire. I just thought,” She sobbed. “I just 

“God!” He hugged her and caressed her hair. “That’s fine. I’m not blaming you.” 

“I should have understood. Claire must feel so bad about it. While she just got divorced we are getting married. I also took the ring from her. She must have many memories attached to the ring.” 

“I am so stupid. I shouldn’t have done it. I will go after her and apologize.” Zara said as she tried to release herself from the hug.
