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...
The room fell into an expectant hush as soon as Alexander Lancaster strode into the hall. His presence, commanding and magnetic, seemed to shift the very air around him.
Reporters, particularly the women, barely suppressed their gasps, captivated by the striking, sharp-featured man who was every bit as imposing as his reputation suggested. The Vice Chairman and CEO of Lancaster Group, the country's largest business conglomerate, didn't just enter a room—he dominated it.
He stepped up to the microphone, adjusting it slightly to accommodate his height, the simple action drawing everyone's eyes to him. His expression was composed, but a flicker of steel glinted in his gaze. The rapid flash of cameras made his features even more striking, lighting up his chiselled jawline as he began to speak.
