Regretting Divorce

H 

“What? Scott!” 

She bellowed with eyes becoming the size of saucers whereas Tyler chuckled. Her words rhymed. 

“I don’t believe you. Why would my brother come to you to be my boyfriend? Like really YOU! Of all the men on this planet they chose you” She turned to him and gave him an accusing stare. 

“It couldn’t be a coincidence. You are my ex–husband’s biggest enemy and he chose you. Tyler Murphy, if you think I am foolish then you have not really known much about me. You are Claire trailed off and fisted her hands on her knees. 

She was blurting out everything that came to her mind. 

Tyler was also Shawn’s elder brother. She had known him for more time than she knew Hunter. 

Shawn often came to their house when he was a kid and then his brother would come to pick him up. So it was really silly of her to blame him for that. Tyler would never do that. 

He 

e wasn’t from the men who use their enemy’s wife and children to hurt them. He believed in striking openly. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

They arrived at the Old Murphy mansion while she was lost in her thoughts. Tyler exited the car and tossed the keys to the man on the watch by the gate. He didn’t wait for her to come out as he stormed inside the mansion 

“The nerve of this guy!” Claire’s mouth hung in irritation. 

She came out and followed after him inside the mansion. Her looks suggested that she was on a mission to verbally murder someone. However, her expressions softened seeing grandma Avery in his arms. 

Tyler swayed her around as though she was his lover. Putting her back on the ground, he kissed her cheek and as a boyfriend would, he romantically put her white hair strand behind her ear. 

“Did you miss me sweetheart?” He faked huskiness. 

Avery whacked his bicep and cringed, “That’s all you can do! Flirt with your sixty seven year old grandma. Why don’t you find someone of your age?” 

Tyler took her to the couch and sat beside her while Grandma continued, “If not a wife then at least get a hot girlfriend, Tye. I want to blush watching you making hot sex here on the couch from behind the pillars. My eyes are growing weaker day by day. I wonder if you’d ever bless me with such a scene.” 

“You are getting bolder, grandma. I don’t think our guests would like to hear you talking like that. Tyler said as his eyes found Claire. 

His eyes hardened, showing his disappointment, 

“Claire is a woman of today’s time. She doesn’t mind it. But I believe you do, which is why you haven’t banged a girl in years.” Grandma Avery’s words made Claire lower her eyes. 

There was no one other than her in the living room. She thought it was wise to give the grandson and grandma duo some privacy 

She turned around only to jumps in surprise as Penelope was standing next to her with a red face. 

“What’s wrong with you, Penny? Claire shook her arm, breaking her reverie.

“Do you think I can be that girlfriend his grandnuus wants 

type of gorgeous. Oh Laire, I think I have fallen in love” Peneloje Buttered her eyes animatedly while Claire’s face pine f 

She stomped a foot on Penelope’s foot to bring her out of her wonderland. 

“Ahh” But she stomped too hard and Penny screamed 

Both the girls turned red in the cheeks as they apologized to Avery and Tyler 

“We’re sorry, grandma. We’ll leave you alone” 

“Claire, wait…” 

Despite Grandma calling after her, Claire dragged Penelope with her. She stopped only when they were in her mom 

“You are so cruel, Laire. I was warming my eyes with the heat igjjging off his body. Why did you drag me here?” Benelope freed her hand and complamed 

“Shut the fuck up. Penny. This is not the first time you have fallen in love with a guy. You said that thrice on our way to RavenMoore. 

“I couldn’t help it. Men are maturing well these days Penny shyly bit her nails. 

Claire controlled her urge to smack her on the face. She sat down on the bed and held her head. 

“You have no idea what 

at Scott tried to do to me 

“What did he do? Steal cash from your purse?” 

“No, he has more money than me. Thanks to dad. He is spoiling him abundantly 

“It’s called keeping a young man full with reseire, Look, if you dragged me here to talk about your brother then In getting out of here. I didn’t come here to hear you ranting on Scott’s adventures. Tyler is here and I want to eye–réépe him.” 

Penny said as she got up. But she didn’t dare move from her spo when she noticed Claire. She was trembling as her nostrils.

it was serious. 

She knew that look, which meant it was 

“What did Scott do?” She quietly sat down next to Claire, lending her her ears, 

The moment Claire shared what happened to her, l’enelope’s ears became hot. 

“Oh my god! Scott is damn clever. Though I am hurt that he chose Tyler to be your next to annoy your ex, I should praise him. The boy knows how to move the coins on a chess board. 

“Penny!” Claire roared. “I’m not in the mood to joke. Are you even trying to understand how wrong it is on so many levels?” 

“Why is it wrong, Claire? You want to avenge Hunter. Who can help you better than Tyler? They are burning in desire to bathe in each other’s blood. Hunter’s balls will roast at the first sight of you and Tyler together.” Penelope said between clenched teeth. “That will serve him the best lesson. The worst you can do to a man is make him realise what he lost.” 

Claire opened her mouth to speak except that Penny beat her to 

“Look, not that it matters Hunter got the woman he loved. It won’t hurt him the way you want him to hurt if you chose to move on with any other man. Tyler is your best choice. Hunter won’t even care whether or not you are with another man if it isn’t Tyler. This man flirting with his grandma outside can give you what you want.” 

“Even if you castrate your ex–husband, he wouldn’t be as affected But it hurts differently when your Ex is dating your

emy. It’ll blow that ass hole off the precipice. And to help you make him suffer I am ready to make the sacrifice.” 

aire’s brows twitched. What kind of sacrifice was Penny talking about? 

ven though I’m head deep in love with Tyler. I will leave him for you. I think you deserve him more than I do.” 

ou have lost your brains in Bloomcrest. Claire wrinkled her nose and shook her head before she dashed out. 

le came to the garden to cool down. Nevertheless, her jaw dropped when she witnessed a fuming Tyler standing with umbbells in each hand. 

er eyebrows went high to meet her baby hair on the forehead because he was not alone. On the ground were his brother ong with hers, doing push ups 

nd the irony was, both of them had a pair of dumbells placed on their back as they pulled themselves up from the floor efore going back down. 

If you want to keep your secrets safe you better not piss me. Continue doing it. Do it as long as I don’t say. ommanded while adding another dumbbell on Shawn and Scott’s back 

The weight sent the boys prostrating on the ground. 

to stop. Tyler 

So you really don’t care I guess. Let me send the evidence of your dirty adventures to your respective fathers. Let’s see how well they will treat you after… 

‘We are doing it. We are doing it. The boys shouted together as they started pushing themselves up again and then down. 

Claire watched with her mouth widening. Mr. Hulk was threatening and punishing her brother and his. Why? Most of all… How dare he? 

Her fingers balled in anger and her temper increased. She took a step towards them, only to freeze in a walking position when Tyler spoke. 

“I took pity on you two’s condition and went to meet that woman. For what? To seek insult and humiliation for using her against her husband. I wasted a precious day of my life that I could have used to multiply my money.” 

“I have never felt so stupid in my whole life, It happened because 1 agreed to see her on your insistence. You two shall be vigorously punished for wasting my time.” 

Claire bit her lips as she lowered her eyes. 

I shouldn’t have said that. Tyler has never done anything wrong to me ever. I have known him all my life as Shawn’s ‘Mr. Perfect big brother. And yet I accused him. I should really apologize to him.‘ 

She looked up and sighed apologetically, “I can see it’s really our brothers who caused the mess. But it was him who got the 

accusation.” 

She was moving in his direction until, “Mrs. Macintyre knows what she’s doing in her life. You two don’t have to worry yourselves. What goes between her and her husband is their personal matter.”“ 

“By the end of this punishment, you will have learned that you should leave a husband and wife, and their personal matters unheeded. You will learn to mind your own business.” 

Claire swallowed hard, trying not to snap. Him addressing her as Mrs. Macintyre, Hunter and her as husband and wife, in spite of getting warnings snade her veins pulsate with rushing indignation. 

It was beyond her point of control. Claire let loose her tensed jaw and stormed towards him.
