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 shook her head at the lengths Dina would go to just to humiliate and kick her out. Keeping her composure, she smiled calmly at her sister and said, "Last time I checked, Dina, I'm no longer part of the Clayton family. My invitation was as a separate guest."
Dina arched an eyebrow, clearly ready to argue more, but before she could, a sweet voice interrupted. "Rain Clayton?"
Rain turned to see Vernice herself approaching. Even in her fifties, Vernice exuded elegance and grace, looking younger than her years with an undeniable aura of authority that hushed the murmurs around them.
"Oh, yes, Miss Vernice!" Dina seized the moment, her smirk widening. "I'm glad you're here to clear this up. This woman used our family name to sneak in. Someone like her shouldn't be at an event like this." She glared at Rain, her eyes filled with a mix of satisfaction and disdain.
