Married To Mr. Vice

Kimberly Campbell, a beautiful and goal driven financial analyst, knew exactly what she wanted for herself, and a baby didn't make the list. It was a huge stray from the big plans, and the commitment a baby required, she was certain she could never afford. With no one to blame, there was only one victim — the stupid glasses of Vodka that had led her into the arms of a man, whose first name was all she knew. Nicholas. Nicholas Vice loved nothing more than being in charge of his own life and decisions. And he was more proud of the casual and mutually-beneficial relationships with little to no commitments he enjoyed. But disappointment came in shocking waves when his father gave an ultimatum to marry his favorite and soon-to-be promoted staff, or risk losing his inheritance. Vexed and certain there was a ploy somewhere, Nicholas vowed to expose the gold digger who was trying to ruin his life. With determination in his heart, he took up his temp role at the head branch. But the unexpected twist occurs when Nicholas discovers that not only was his 'supposed bride' his one-night stand, she was also pregnant. Taking advantage of 'the' situation, he proposed a deal, the only one he believed would get him out of his father's ultimatum — a contract marriage. Marriage for a year in exchange for her pride and reputation.

Suspicion

Rachel's smile faltered as her eyes landed on Grace. It wasn't a surprise, not really. The way Grace kept stealing glances at Martin, those fleeting gazes that darted away whenever their eyes met, sort of told her that something was up, but she hadn't wanted to believe it. She had desperately wanted to ignore.

Hearing this from Sasha was the confirmation she needed to know that something was indeed going on between her husband and Richard's daughter. The truth settled in her stomach like a lead weight.

Across the room, Kimberly and Rachel weren't the only ones with their eyes trained on the clandestine duo. Mike, too, who had been about to give the toast, noticed Martin's subtle shift towards Grace.

A muscle in his jaw clenched as he glanced at Martin's wife. He saw the flicker of something in her gaze, a storm brewing just beneath the surface. Thinking fast, he needed to diffuse the situation before it detonated.
