ABANDONED BY MY EX-HUSBAND, MARRIED TO HIS CEO’S UNCLE
“We ain't divorced yet, Gabriella and you are already cheating. Is this why you wanted a divorce? Cutting me off from your business? Just to bring in someone and you didn't even do that alone but my uncle? Doing shit with my uncle?”
My eyes widened more and more until I understood what was happening.
For three years, Gabriella thought she had it all, a loyal husband, a growing interior design business, and a best friend she’d known since college living under their roof “just until she got back on her feet.” When her friend announced a surprise pregnancy, Gabriella celebrated, until she discovered the father was her own husband.
The betrayal slices deeper when Gabriella learns the affair began long before the baby, and worse, her husband signed over half of their joint properties to the friend in secret. Now publicly humiliated and privately devastated, Gabriella refuses to be the woman who begs to be chosen. Divorce is not just a choice, it’s survival.
Enter Aidan Voss, her newest client: a reclusive billionaire known for designing luxury hotels and for ruthlessly dismantling the competition. He’s charming, calculated, and hiding scars of his own. He offers her a high-stakes design contract that would put her business back on the map, but his interest in her is anything but professional. What she didn't know was that the newest client was her ex-husband's uncle.
But Gabriella made a vow: never to lose herself in a man again. Not even one who seems to see past the ruins she hides behind polished smiles.
And certainly not one who might just be planning revenge on the man who broke her, because Aidan has his own unfinished business with her ex-husband.

Chapter: Hard To GetGabrielle’s Pov~~After the meeting with the client, I left the restaurant and headed to the company when my phone rang. I reached for my purse and took out my phone. Arielle's name appeared on the screen, so I answered the call.“Hey whatsup,” I said walking towards my car.“You are not the company. Where are you? I'm waiting for you, there's an issue.” she said, her voice getting tensed.“I stepped out. I went for a meeting with one of my biggest clients. I'm on my way now,” I said, placing my bag in the car before getting in.“Alright I'll be waiting,” she said.With that I hung up, I drove out of the restaurant. Not quite long after, I got to the company. I parked my car and stepped out, adjusting my sunglasses before walking inside. The employees greeted me as I made my way to the elevator but I wasn't in the mood to respond to their greeting so I ignored them. I had bigger things on my mindI stepped into the elevator and the door closed, I caught my reflection in the mirror w

Chapter: Forbidden TouchGabrielle’s Pov~~The cold morning air bit my skin as I walked towards my car. Unlocking it, I hopped in holding the steering wheel. The city was quiet, but my thoughts weren't. As I closed my eyes, the memory of last night flashed in.Aiden's scent still clung to every part of my body, to my hair, even inside my thoughts. I tried shaking the thought away, but I couldn't. It kept teasing me, reminding me of every one of his touches, every sound.“How could I be so foolish as to sleep with my enemy’s uncle…” Taking a deep breath, I started the engine and drove off at full speed to the mansion. Right now, I am not myself so I can't go to work. As I drove along the road, my subconscious spoke.“Aren't you the same as Ethan? You aren't divorced yet, and you already had a one-night stand with his uncle.” “Keep quiet,” I yelled, shaking the thought off.Minutes later, I got to the mansion. I unlocked the door and leaned against it, shutting my eyes.“Gabriella, you don't need to feel guil

Chapter: When Desire Takes Over Gabrielle’s POV"You...what are you doing here?" I asked, my voice a bit slurred due to the drinks.He began walking towards me, and I raised my head to stare at him. For the first time since I met him, he was dressed casually in jeans and a white Henley shirt that still showed his bulging muscles. His hair was stylishly ruffled to give him a sexy out-of-bed look. I couldn't help swallowing a little. His face was hard and a cold glint showed in his eyes."What were you thinking?" He growled low in his throat. I should be scared, but stranger, I wasn't."What do you mean?""Here. What are you doing in a place like this?"I sighed as I shifted my face away from him, it's not like something was wrong with this place, was there?"Nothing. I just wanted to have some fun...is there anything wrong with that?"His eyebrows furrowed, his lips pressed in a grim line, as if trying to suppress his emotions but his stormy eyes betrayed him."Not if you're dressed like that and in this state."I l

Chapter: Drunken Night Gabrielle’s POV“But why not?” I asked, my eyes fixed firmly on his face, searching for an answer, yet also daring him to give me one.Aiden leaned forward slightly, his sharp gaze locking with mine. His presence was magnetic, and I could feel the tension hanging in the air between us.“Give me a reason to have lunch with you,” he said, his tone deep and controlled, while his eyebrows rose with a teasing challenge.I felt a small smirk tug at the corner of my lips. He wanted me to give him a reason? As if I was desperate to beg for his attention. I straightened up and flipped my hair backward in a slow, deliberate motion, letting him see that I wasn’t going to play his little game.“It’s fine,” I muttered with a light shrug, turning on my heels.I took a step toward the door, determined not to give him the satisfaction of seeing any disappointment on my face. But just as I was about to leave, his voice echoed behind me.“I’ll go with you.”I stopped in my tracks, my heart betraying me

Chapter: Playing With FireGabrielle's POV And with that, I stormed out of the event hall, my heels clicking loudly on the marble floor as if they, too, were expressing my fury. I didn’t care who saw me or what they thought. My heart was pounding in my chest like it was trying to escape, and I could feel the heat rising in my neck, my teeth chattering. I was angry, deeply hurt, and worst of all, I felt like a fool. I felt betrayed, disappointed, humiliated, and completely used. How could I have been so blind? How could I not have seen the signs? Aiden. That name rang in my ears like a haunting echo. Aiden. The man I had almost trusted, not knowing he was playing a game. A dirty, calculated, heartless game. What made it worse, what truly made me sick to my stomach, was that I had heard about Aiden for years. Ethan never stopped talking about him. He constantly brought him up in conversation. "My uncle is a perfectionist," he would say. "My uncle is so cold, but he always gets the job done."

Chapter: My Ex, His Uncle“Baby.” I heard that tiny voice from behind and even through the noise inside the extravagant gala, I could still recognise the voice. Freda, my betrothal. “Baby, you have been scanning the room, are you expecting someone I don't know of?” She questioned, her voice laced with curiosity and I slowly lifted her hands away from my waist.“Freda, this isn't a couple's reunion or something. I have warned you. Stay clear away from being touchy. Don't let me get you to be the center of attention.” I warned, my eyes assessing her black revealing corset gown. Freda is a very pretty woman, beautiful long legs that fit her body so well. She can be identified as the ‘perfection’, her hair always braided in a bridal style, her lips glossy at every time and her hazel eyes always assessing and yawning for love but honestly, I do not want all of that.I wanted a life free from women and she was blocking that. I think she deserves better. Yes, she does.She sighed and nodded her head, although I cou
