“Did you just marry the richest man in the country… by accident? How does that even happen?”

Delphinia sighed dramatically. “I know, I’m such an overachiever. But it’s easy, really. Step one: drink too much. Step two: find the perfect man. Step three: say ‘I do’ before he realizes I’m a walking disaster.”

“And the revenge?”

She raised her glass. “Served cold, with a diamond bigger than my ex’s ego.”

After years trapped in a loveless, abusive marriage, Delphinia had one plan: leave her toxic past behind and never look back. But freedom isn’t as sweet as she’d hoped. With no family to turn to and no place to go, she crashes with her best friend…only to end up at a party where one too many drinks lead to one tiny (accidental) marriage to Evander Walton.

Handsome, rich, and absolutely off-limits, Evander is everything Delphinia thought she’d never have. And he has just one condition if she wants to break things off: she’ll have to pay him back…for the huge diamond ring she barely remembers accepting. Broke and in no position to negotiate, she’s got no choice but to play along with her accidental husband and the lavish life that comes with him.

Now she’s living in luxury, holding her head high, and plotting the sweetest revenge against the ex who tried to ruin her. Because if there’s one thing Delphinia knows, it’s that payback is best served in designer heels.

Accidentally Yours, My Super Rich Second Husband

A few days had passed since Delphinia met Cedric for lunch. She hadn't mentioned their conversation to Evander—not because she was afraid of him knowing, but because she didn't want to be the one to drive a wedge between him and his best friend. Evander and Cedric had been close for years, and she wasn't the type to tattle just because someone had rubbed her the wrong way. Besides, she wanted to see what Cedric would do next. If he had already formed an opinion about her, she doubted a single conversation would change it. But if he continued interfering, then she would decide how to handle it.

That afternoon, Delphinia arrived at Ashton's school to pick him up, just like always. The moment he spotted her, his little face lit up, and he ran straight into her arms. She caught him easily, pressing a kiss to his hair before setting him down and grabbing his small backpack.

And, just like always, Lydia was there too.
