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.

Surprise Marriage to a Billionaire

Murmurs spread quickly, drawing more attention to the conversation.

"Isn't she also rumoured to be Paul's ex-girlfriend? The lawyer at their firm who resigned?" one voice whispered.

"Didn't you hear she married a nobody? Why would she marry a nobody instead of Paul Smith?"

"I heard she's an illegitimate daughter! Did you notice how the Claytons didn't even bother to properly introduce her to everyone?" someone whispered nearby, adding fuel to the fire.

Rain kept her composure, but the words stung. She had grown used to this kind of gossip, yet it never failed to remind her of her estranged relationship with her family. The atmosphere around her felt thick with judgmental stares and whispers.

"Yes, Rain," Dina chimed in, her tone smug. "Be grateful that Mr. Michael Astor is even willing to take you back. If I were you, I'd divorce that useless husband of yours. The Astor family is a better choice!"
