Wisdom Weisz was probably the unluckiest woman in the world. She lost her house and ten-month-old daughter in a fire in a single day. And what’s worse is that on the same day, her husband was making love to her best friend in the latter’s apartment without paying any sort of remorse for her. Weeks after, she was also fired from her job for the viral video that was taken on the time she shamed her ex-husband and ex-best friend in front of many people.
        	Frustrated, she was left jobless and spent her remaining money in a luxury hotel’s bar. With destiny as unpredictable as ever, she met the billionaire in the bar who she already came across at various moments of her life. The man offered her a job and it was called, “Wife for Hire”, meaning she will be his wife without any emotional attachments. Wisdom was skeptical at first when the billionaire showed him the sum of money she will receive weekly. If she accepts, the billionaire will pay her upfront with a hundred dollars in her bank in just a blink of an eye.
        	Wisdom eventually accepts as she deemed this as an opportunity for revenge to her former husband and best friend as the billionaire happened to be her ex-husband’s boss and her ex-best friend's employer.
        	Wisdom Weisz was on cloud nine at first until she realized that her heart was about to fall for him. As a whirlpool of emotions stirred and a web of conflicts weaved, Wisdom will soon find out that this job was not easy as she thought as her heart begins to fall for the man who had employed her to be his hired wife.

Wife for Hire

After several days of preparation where the sun has witnessed, I can finally be bound in marriage to my beloved Wisdom. 


 There were numerous nights that I often thought, wondered, and feared in case of what the unknown caller told us. 


 It was hair-raising and very much a thing to be afraid of. I fear Wisdom’s safety as well as mine. What if that caller will literally make it happen? What if Wisdom and I will never get a chance to see each other as a married couple? What if— 


 ‘You attract what you fear…’ those words echoed in my mind. Though I don’t want to think of those things, I still think of those thoughts because of this fearful heart. 


 “Congrats, Denver!” My heart leaped when it was Dyana who said that, treading towards me with her deep purple off-shoulder dress. 


 “It hasn’t yet started. The wedding,” I spoke in a bland manner. 


 “What I mean is that congrats for easily getting out of my grip and being able to find your shelter in the arms of Wisdom.”
