Raised by a family that never cared for her and desperate to avoid a twisted arranged marriage, Rain seizes this unexpected twist of fate. Her new husband might be a cold-hearted billionaire, but he's her only escape. Yet Alexander demands a swift divorce.

She just has to convince him to want her around—FOREVER. Weeks into their unexpected arrangement, Rain begins to see through Alexander’s icy exterior.

It’s against the 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.

Rain beamed as she entered her office, greeted by a burst of confetti and colorful balloons. Her team cheered in unison, "Happy Birthday, Prosecutor Lancaster!"
She was completely taken by surprise and couldn't help but laugh, delighted by the unexpected celebration. "You're probably wondering how we found out?" Jane teased with a grin. "Well, aside from knowing everyone's birthday because I make it my mission to remember everyone's birthday here, Mr. Lancaster was extra thoughtful and asked us to make sure your day was special even if you insisted on coming to work!"
Rain felt her heart warm, realizing how much thought Alexander had put into making her birthday memorable.
"Did he really?" Rain asked, her cheeks tinged with color as her team nodded enthusiastically.
