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...
Rain decided to sleep in one of the guest rooms at Alexander's penthouse, but before heading to bed, she made several phone calls. When she finally tried to sleep, it proved to be elusive.
Her father-in-law wanted a grandchild, and now Alexander had made it clear he wanted a baby too. It seemed like having a child would secure her place in the Lancaster family forever. It sounded simple enough... but was it really?
She lay awake, staring at the ceiling, her mind spinning with uncertainty, until she finally dozed off.
The next morning, Rain woke up early, intending to prepare breakfast for Alexander. However, she was surprised to find him already awake and cooking in the kitchen.
"You're up early," she remarked, still half-asleep.
He glanced at her. "You can take a bath first and change into something new. There are clothes for you inside my walk-in closet," he informed her casually.
