Rain Clayton’s life goes sideways when her attempt at revenge backfires, wrecking a stranger’s car instead of her cheating boyfriend’s. But the real shock comes when she learns she’s accidentally married to the car’s owner: Alexander Lancaster, a powerful and dangerously charming CEO with no intention of staying married. 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. Refusing to lose her one chance at freedom, Rain strikes a risky bargain to keep their marriage alive, even if it means playing by Alexander’s rules. 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. But one night, she’s taken by surprise. “What are you doing?” Rain burst out, eyes wide as Alexander casually slid into her bed. “Performing husbandly duties,” he smirked. “You can’t stay here! 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.

"She won't," Alexander said firmly. "Rain made it clear—once she finds out who impersonated her, she'll take legal action. I can forgive my brother, but Rain... I doubt she will. Whatever she decides, I'll stand by her."
Hearing this, Sanya panicked. She tried to leave quietly, hoping no one would notice her. But after only a few steps, she froze as Rain's voice called out, "Sanya? Did you find it? Why are you over there? The restroom's in the other direction."
Caught off guard, Sanya forced an awkward smile and joked, "This house is so big, I got lost."
Rain chuckled softly, looping her arm through Sanya's. "Come on, I'll show you the way."
As they walked, Rain glanced at her friend, her expression shifting to concern. "Are you feeling alright? You look pale."
