I never expected my life to change so drastically. One moment, I was a woman with dreams, deeply in love with a man I thought I’d spend my life with. The next, I was betrayed and heartbroken, walking in on him cheating without a hint of remorse.

That night, overwhelmed with pain and too much alcohol, I made a reckless decision, a one-night stand with a stranger who, to my shock, turned out to be my new boss.

Arec, the vice president of Denco Groups, was desperate. To secure his future as CEO, he needed a wife, and in a twist of fate, he offered me a contract marriage. It sounded absurd, but his desperation mirrored my own need to escape the wreckage of my life.

It was supposed to be simple: no emotions, no strings attached. A business arrangement, nothing more. I thought I could handle it, that I could keep my heart out of it.

I was wrong.

What started as a deal quickly spiraled into something far more complicated. As our fake marriage blurred into real feelings, the world around us began to close in. Disapproving family, old enemies, buried secrets, scheming rivals, and even an attempt on my life threatened to tear us apart.

This is my story, a journey of heartbreak, unexpected love, and a fight to protect what we built together. In a world filled with lies and deceit, can a marriage born out of necessity become something real?

Our Accidental Forever

"I've missed you too, sweetheart," her mom replied, pulling back to look at her daughter. "You look beautiful. And…" Her gaze shifted to me, a knowing smile crossing her face.

I stepped forward, extending a hand, but she surprised me by pulling me into a light embrace. "It's good to see you again, Arec" she said warmly.

"And you," I replied, a little caught off guard.

She pulled back, her eyes studying me with the same maternal care she gave Ella. "I can see you've been taking good care of my daughter."

Ella glanced at me, her smile widening. "He's been the best, Mom."

I cleared my throat, feeling a bit self-conscious. "I'm just doing what I was supposed to..."

Mrs. Davis laughed, shaking her head. "Well, thank you for doing what you are supposed to... It's a relief knowing she has someone like you by her side."

I bent down to grab her suitcase, offering her a polite smile. "Let me take that for you."
