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 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...

Hard to Focus

Madame Beck's voice cut through the tension in the room.

Alexander froze, his grip loosening slightly as he turned to look at the madame. Taking advantage of the sudden interruption, Rain pushed herself off and quickly scrambled up, adjusting her wig. She couldn't risk anyone finding out about her identity.

Madame Beck's eyes narrowed as she looked between Alexander and Rain. "Mr. Lancaster, I must remind you that our entertainers must be treated respectfully. Any breach of this protocol will not be tolerated."

Alexander stood up, straightening his clothes. "I apologize," he said, his tone clipped. "We were just playing around."

'Playing around?' Rain mused with annoyance. 'Seriously?'

Madame Beck raised her brows before she turned to look at Rain suspiciously. Rain could only respond with an awkward smile. Madame Beck's face darkened as she turned back to Alexander, and Rain was surprised that Madame Beck seemed to care so much for her.
