Everyone thought Lorenzo truly loved Gracie, until the day of their daughter's heart surgery. To Gracie's utter shock, Lorenzo gave the precious organ needed by their child to another woman. Devastated, Gracie opted for a divorce. Fueled by her need for revenge, Gracie joined hands with Lorenzo's uncle, Waylon, and orchestrated Lorenzo's downfall. In the end, Lorenzo was left with nothing and consumed by remorse. He pleaded for a reconciliation. Gracie thought she was free to move on with her life, but Waylon held her back in a death grip. "Did you think you can just walk out on me?"

Never Looking Back: The Heart Wants What It Wants Chapter 1 Seducing Her Ex-husband's Uncle

"Are you attempting to seduce me?" The man's voice was cold with anger.

Pinned against the bed, Gracie Jones boldly reached up, her fingers tracing a path from his abdomen upward.

She could distinctly feel that at her touch, his muscles tightened immediately.

Her finger halted at his lips, highlighted by her stark wine-red nail polish.

"Yes, are you open to the idea, Waylon?"

The man restraining Gracie was Waylon Hughes, the uncle of her ex-husband.

With a half-smile, Waylon took in her fearless yet poised expression. "Doesn't it worry you that my nephew might find out?"

"He's already my ex," Gracie said, her smile subtle.

Today marked the official end of her marriage to Lorenzo Hughes.

Waylon's face hardened at her words. Releasing her neck, he said sharply, "I'm not interested in you. Leave."

Gracie quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, her voice a soft murmur in his ear, saying, "Waylon, interest isn't just spoken about; it's proven by actions."

Gracie's warm breath against his neck caused a blush to rise to his ear.

He swallowed hard.

Gracie's hand continued its exploration of his abdomen. "You might say one thing, Waylon, but your body seems to disagree."

Heat flooded Waylon's lower abdomen. A tingling sensation spread from the place Gracie had touched.

It was a feeling he had never experienced before.

Waylon grasped her roving hand, his tone firm. "There's a price to getting close to me."

Overcome by his desires, he pressed his lips to hers, her sweet, floral scent enveloping them.

Gracie's clothes were quickly removed...

As Waylon was about to advance further, Gracie stopped him. "Waylon, can you promise me one thing?"

The desire in Waylon's eyes dimmed slightly as he momentarily paused.

Gracie eventually disclosed her true motives.

"Proceed."

Hearing the edge of displeasure in his voice, Gracie tenderly kissed his neck, trying to calm him. "I need you to remove Lorenzo from his position as Chief Executive Officer."

The man facing Gracie was not just the leader of Jorvine's most influential family, the Hughes, but also a key figure in the national economy.

For Waylon, her request was manageable.

"After your divorce, you're no longer a Hughes. Why should I act against Lorenzo for you?"

As Gracie was about to distance herself from Waylon, he continued, "Pick something else."

"Well, then... At the banquet tomorrow night, I want you to..." Gracie murmured something into his ear.

"Alright." No sooner had he consented than Waylon moved closer, pushing aside all else to hold her passionately...

When Waylon woke up, he felt rejuvenated, as if he had savored something extraordinary.

It was the first night in six years he had slept without the aid of sleeping pills.

Turning to his side, he found a cold pillow with a note on it.

Waylon picked up the note nonchalantly. "Dear Waylon, don't forget our agreement!" It was signed off with a smiley face.

The crooked handwriting brought a chill to Waylon's gaze.

He was intrigued to see what Gracie was planning.

Reaching for the phone, Waylon called his assistant, Greg Reed. "Greg, there's something I need you to take care of."

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ "I want to get a divorce, Mark," I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time-even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.

Claudia and Anthony had known each other for twelve years. After three years of dating, their wedding date was set. The news of their intended marriage shook the entire city. Emotions were high as many women grew extremely jealous of her. At first, Claudia couldn't be bothered about the hate. But when Anthony abandoned her on the altar after receiving a call, she was devastated. "Serves her right!" All of her enemies took pleasure in her misfortune. The news spread like wildfire. In a strange turn of events, Claudia posted an update on social media. It was a picture of her with a marriage certificate which she captioned, "Call me Mrs. Dreskin from now on." While the public was still trying to process the shock, Bennett—who hadn't posted on social media in years—made a post with the caption that read, "Now a married man." The public went agog. Many people labeled Claudia as the luckiest woman of the century as she had struck gold by marrying Bennett. Even a baby knew that Anthony was an ant compared to his rival. Claudia had the last laugh that day. She relished her enemies' shocked comments while remaining humble. People still thought that their marriage was odd. They believed that it was just a marriage of convenience. One day, a journalist was bold enough to ask for Bennett's comment on his marriage to which he answered with the softest smile, "Marrying Claudia is the best thing that ever happened to me."
