Regretting Divorce

Chapter 68 

Her gaze was misted with tears that she blinked back. When she looked up, she saw the manager. His face was crossed with malevolent objectives. Behind him was another man. The bartender, from whom Pavel bought two drinks. One for himself and other for her. 

As she gathered her courage to look back, she saw l’avet’s smirking face, 

“Thanks, buildies” He stopped right in front of Claire meanwhile his eyes glazed over her body like a magnifying glass on an invaluable fossil remains, “I knew she wouldn’t be an rasy target from the inoment we stepped inside the puls. The way she looked around and pretended to be cool about everything maile it obvious that she wouldn’t fall for my niceness. So I had to do this 

Favel lifted her face by jerking his forefinger under her chin. His mouth upturned into a smitten grin as he licked his lips. 

“I’ve been after you for a while, Claire, You refused me in the past like I wasn’t worth the hassle.” He sneered before turning to his allies, the manager and the bartender. “But after she was ditched and thrown aside by her rich husband she came to me like a moth drawn to fire. Such a loose woman she ist” 

Pavel pinched her chin, making shivers erupt at the back of her legs. But Claire didn’t budge. She remained composed, thinking about what she should do next. Pavel’s disgracing works became a beep sound in her mind as she contemplated how to get out of here 

She made a rough calculation in her mind with regards to the room she was in. It was small in size. Not adequately luminous. There was a shell to her left with what looked like adult toys and a huge box of latex. 

Fear infused in her blood, running madly through her system. It didn’t take long to realize that she wasn’t the first woman to end up in that room between the three men. They were accustomed to it, and looking how smug and carefree they appeared, they hadn’t been caught before. 

However, there’s a first time for everything in this world. Claire vowed that she would break the cycle of their turpitude and bring it out in front of everyone. 

She contained her anxiety and ventured to measure the distance between her and the door. It wasn’t huge just a few steps. Roughly ten. The only obstacle was Pavel since the other two men were on this side of the room. She could get out if she used her brains proficiently. And if she’s to rum without her high heels, the chances of escaping would multiply 

That being calculated, Claire forced a delighted smile. 

“I’m disappointed in you. Pavel, Claire clasped his fist. She stroked his fingers up and down all the way to his elbow before she trailed her hands up his shoulders. “Reminiscing the way you escorted me, I expected you to simp for me. I thought I would throw some tantrums before giving in. It’s a shame that you are not taking me to your place to have a good time” 

“You wouldn’t have gone to my place. You are too conceited to give me a chance. You like men like your husband. Not a model like me who get paycheck for every walk of his life. Pavel sniggered as he watched her lips pout 

“That’s your overall idea of me! I’m hurt? Chine 

oved away. 

She catwalked towards the door and leaned against it. She called the distrustful eyes of the three men on her body as she crossed her legs. 

“You should know better that a woman who is hurt in love by her Ex would never go to another man who has even the slightest resemblance to him. I came to you because you seemed different. And I’ll be honest,” She lifted a foot to release it from the confinement of her shoe. 

While doing the same to her other foot, she continued, “I was flattered by your outstanding performance on the ramp. You don’t know it, Pavel, but I’ve been following up with your work.” 

He didn’t seem to believe it, and Claire was not fully prepared to bail out just yet. So she must buy time for herself. 

And judging from the looks of each man, it needed another two minutes to completely enchant them. They were half bewitched by her act of removing shoes. Perhaps, if she detached her long cost from her body and threw it on one of them then it would give her mough time to open the door and make a run for her life. 

What was important now was to get out of this study room. The more time she stayed here the more difficult it would become to avoid their hands on her body. Because the men would soon blank out of the trance of allure and pound on her. She had to act before they slipped into the next 

mood 

Once she was out of the room, she could find a way our of the pub too, Hence, it was the room that she had to avoid. 

“Penelope is my best friend. You are always wearing her designs and walking for her. Who do you think recommends your name to her every time she has to organize an event? Claire raised a body–bolting brow with a tempting smile, 

The men were in her spell. Completely immobile. To make the immobility stay longer, she removed her coat and dropped it by her foot. The men gasped. Their eyes taking in her cleavage. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Nope, she didn’t throw the coat on them as it would have made her look desperate for the night and broke their spell quicker. 

“I can get you more work and make you a bigger model. You can have the model of the year award this year in your name. All I have to do to make it happen is just make a call. Just a call, Pavel. A call to change your life. Claire said the last statement with a rasp, sounding like a temptress. 

“Not just yours. Your friends can have a brighter future too. All I have to do is make a call.” 

Her hand behind her back found the knob. Claire twisted it. The sound of the click could serve as a snap for the men and jerk them out of their reverie. But it didn’t happen. They were rooted in their spot, her spell working on them. 

Claire took the chance and moved away. She parted the door wide and stepped on the other side. She didn’t run right away. Since they were three and she was alone in a place she didn’t know at all, she bolted the lock from the outside. The key was luckily stuck in the hole. She turned it and then tossed it in the darkness before she took off like a rocker, 

As she crossed the long corridor, the sounds of angry fists banging on the door 

r rippled in her ears. Claire didn’t look behind as she ran. She ran from one passage to another. It was a maze she couldn’t get past through. 

Her heart was in her mouth when she came to the room with the dance floor and booths, detonating with loud music 

“Where do I go? I can’t seem to find the way out” Claire breathed heavily 

She was looking around the room and her eyes watered, finding a certain face in the crowd. 

“Cole* 

Her eyes flickered brutally as she couldn’t believe her luck. She was going to be saved. The feeling of respire filled her body. She made her ways through the swarm of drank individuals syncing with the beat of the music. 

Claire was about to reach the person but suddenly she felt herself being yanked behind. 

“Found her!” She heard a heavy voice over her head. 

Between her tears she looked at the man and blood siphoned from her face. The manager found her. 

“No, help! He” Her cry for help was suppressed behind a hand that covered her mouth. 

She wriggled except that it was ineffectual. With dread encompassing her fully, her hody had become weak. She couldn’t place her feet ground 

Lthe 

Claire was being taken back through the corridors she just wandered through to find an escape. She was going to end up in that room again. This time no enchantment of her would work on them. They wouldn’t let her try it in the first place. 

She had almost given up when a cyclone of persistence unfurled in her chest, encouraging her to try again. She was her father’s strong daughter. She couldn’t give up. 

Claire took a deep breath from her nose before she opened her mouth wide. Taking in the man’s hand between her teeth she bit on it with full strength. 

He wailed in pain, his grip on her becoming less rigid. It was adequate to pull out of his hold. Claire yanked herself out forcefully and she collapsed on the floor. Nevertheless, she didn’t stop. She craded and then got on her feet 

Claire fled off without looking ahead. Her intent was to stay out and away from their hands. 

She ran through the corridors. Left and right. Non–stop. At one point, she felt like she heard Pavel behind her. His tone put wheels on her feet and the ran faster. With every gasping breath, she could feel their presence closing in. Even if panic surged through her veins, she kept moving 

As Claire turned a corner while looking behind her to see if they were close, she bumped into a man. Dread took hold of her. She thought it was Pavel or his two accomplices. 

“Claire, you alrightr 

That voice, though, made time freeze. Her eyes came up and widmed in disbelief and relief. 

“T–Tyler,” Tears clogged her eyesight as Claire’s trembling hands fell on his shoulders. 

It has to be a dream. Claire squeezed his shoulders to see to it if she was in a dream. Tyler couldn’t be here. She had seen him last in RavenMoore 

“What are you doing in this place! It’s a red light area. His voice was tight. 

What Claire discerned was that it was real and the frown between his eyes filled her heart with joy against dread. 

Claire’s eyes brimmed mure as she sobbed. Tyler was here. It was him in real. Not a dream.

Claire’s eyes brimmed more as the sobbed. Tyler was here. It was him in real. Not a dream.

“You are 

cold and trembling. Take my coat.” He said and sought after removing his coat, his brows furrowing further, 

Claire couldn’t hold it any more. She pressed her face in his shoulder and broke down in his arms. 

“Tyler. Tyler, I’m so glad that you came. Tyler, th–they were after me. T–they wanted to… She trailed off and came undone in his arms. 

Meanwhile, Hunter, who was also looking for Claire with Cole, came there. He witnessed her throwing herself in his arms and his heart raced like a racehorse behind his ribs.
