Surprise Marriage to a Billionaire

Rain Clayton's life takes a wild turn when she trashes her cheating boyfriend's car, only to find out it wasn’t his—it belonged to a stranger. To make matters worse, she accidentally discovers she's married to this stranger, none other than Alexander Lancaster, the reclusive Vice Chairman and CEO of the powerful Lancaster Group. Raised in a family that mistreated her and is now pressured by her father to marry the mayor’s psychopathic son, Rain sees this surprise marriage as a blessing in disguise. After years of suffering, it seems the heavens have finally taken pity on her, gifting her a handsome billionaire husband—a man ruthless to his enemies and exactly what she needs to escape her family's clutches. But there's one major problem: Alexander wants an immediate divorce. Determined to keep him, Rain strikes a bargain to extend their marriage, under his terms. Now all she has to do is convince him to keep her forever... A few weeks passed since their surprise marriage… “What are you doing?” Rain burst out, her eyes wide and her glare intense as she watched Alexander crawl onto her bed. “Performing husbandly duties,” he replied with a casual smirk. “You can’t sleep here! It’s against our contract!” “I’m not breaking it,” Alexander said with a shrug. “The contract specifies that you’ll fulfill all wifely duties, excluding sharing my bed. It doesn’t say anything about me not performing husbandly duties, including sharing your bed.” The situation had shifted, and it seemed like she was no longer the only one in control...

Paul took a deep breath before stepping into the prosecutor's office. He had managed to gain entry easily thanks to a friend working there. Knowing exactly where Rain's office was, he made his way directly to her department.

He knocked on the door and entered. "Excuse me, how can we help you?" a woman at the front desk asked.

"I'm here to see Prosecutor Rain Clayton," Paul replied.

"I'm sorry, but Prosecutor Clayton is on leave right now. You can come back on Monday if you'd like to see her," the woman informed him.

Paul's face darkened. "On leave?" he echoed, disbelief lacing his voice. It was unlike Rain to take time off, especially when she had just started. "Why?" he demanded.

His raised voice caught the attention of everyone in the room. A man approached him, trying to defuse the situation. "Can I have your name so I can let her know you stopped by?" he asked politely.
