In the heart of Silver Crest city, Lyra Daniel, a 21 year old orphan and aspiring fashion designer, battles fiercely to save the life of her husband Felix Thomson, who is bed-ridden in the hospital by a rare case of lung disease, and needs a lot of money to get treated. Lyra runs helter and skelter in search of succor and a means to save her dear husband's life, but her efforts yield nothing with his case growing worse by the minute. While still at a loss, she runs into the billionaire heir, Dante Cooper, in a chance meeting at her part-time place of work. Coincidentally, Dante happens to be in need of a contract wife urgently, ready to pay thousands of dollars to keep the eyes of his prying family off his back. Series of back and forth takes place, and soon Felix's case becomes so critical that he even urges his wife Lyra to take the deal and promise to marry her again once the deal is over. Lyra accepts, reluctantly sacrificing her marriage with Felix to save his life. But little did she know that it was all a ruse. Much later, Dante also misjudges Lyra as a gold digger who divorced her husband because of money and she has to go through hell in the hands of Dante's family, making Lyra's betrayal double and much more brutal. Both ex husbands reconnects with Lyra years later in a whole different scenario as she had grown into a much powerful and celebrated figure, however very little had changed about the resentment she felt for them particularly for Felix, her first husband. An air of suspense persists between the parties as an entirely different journey unfolds amidst the charged atmosphere of reunion, passion, betrayal, and revenge.

Chapter 001: The Gala
It was past 7 pm, and the sun had since disappeared from the sky.The gala party had begun to unfold slowly. The low murmur from the well-dressed attendees persisted. And once in a while, the laughter of an amused guest punctures the air in the decorated hall. Waiters in black and white aprons bore different trays on their hands, holding their heads high.Lyra Daniel was one of these waiters. However, unlike the others, the smile on her face was forced and plastic. She walked from one seat to the next nervously, serving the guests around. And sometimes, when they tried to call her attention to something, they would have to repeat themselves more than twice before Lyra would grasp. "Are you deaf? young woman?" One of them even asked. "I'm so sorry sir, pardon me, it's the music. Too loud." She pleaded, smiling sheepishly.“Oh my God, can you see that? where on earth did Mr. Douglass, pick this Lyra lady from? She's so crude.” One of the younger waitresses whispered to her coll

Chapter 002: The Hard Decision
Lyra literally jumped out of the taxi the moment the driver she hailed earlier parked in front of the hospital gate. She flung his payment at him in a rush, waving and blurting the word “sorry” at the same time as she was running. The driver himself looked momentarily flustered by her craziness but later shook his head indulgently before driving off. On getting to the second floor of the building where her husband’s ward was.Lyra pushed at the door forcefully and ran in, making the cleaner and the two nurses she met there flinch slightly at the sight of her. Felix was lying on the bed with his nose strapped up in an oxygen mask while being connected to some sort of machine. Lyra stopped to stare at her husband with a weepy expression, whispering, “Felix. Oh Felix,” “Calm down, madam.” One of the nurses said.The doctor walked in through the opened door the next moment. “Doc,” Lyra immediately turned to him with her reddened eyes and held out hands. He stopped too

Chapter 003: The Contract
Lyra woke up next to Felix in the morning. Her bones and joints felt stiff, and her eyes were bloodshot due to the lack of sleep the previous night. The movement of Felix's arm made her turn abruptly to face him. His eyes were open now. Which gave her some form of relief. Even his oxygen mask was off. Perhaps the doctors had come in the night "Felix." She whispered with a low concerned voice. He stared at her with frail eyes but seemed too tired to talk, so she reached for the cupboard and grabbed a bottle of water, helping him sit up a little before guiding the bottle to his mouth.After he had his fill, she felt encouraged to go out again and continue her search for the surgery money before his condition started to deteriorate again. She got up slowly. "Felix, I will go and call one of the nurses to look after you. I need to run along now to put one or two things together for your upcoming surgery."But before she could leave, Felix had muttered her name softly and tiredly."

Chapter 004: The sacrifices
"I don't want to die, I want to live long by your side. I want to carry our children and have a perfect family." Felix mumbled softly on the bed with the paper still in his hand.Lyra closed her eyes as she listened to him because his words were yet again re-echoing the deep wishes of her heart. The same thing that drove her to take such a drastic move in the first place."I desire that too, Felix." She whispered from where she stood, gazing straight at him so he could see the sincerity in her eyes. "Trust me, I do. And I know we will surely get the money they are asking for. I won't let you die."Felix nodded weakly on the bed. But then, after a second, he slowly brought the paper to his face again. "This contract, I think it's not that bad. It's just two years. It's God giving us a chance." He remarked, fixing his eyes on the first page.Lyra inhaled and shook her head in calm disagreement."Two years is a lot, Felix. I can't live without you for that long."Felix coughed, a

Chapter 005: The Marriage
Dante held Lyra's hand woodenly as they began to approach the registry. Lyra felt stiff and awkward, her face staring straight ahead and trying not to steal any glance at the flamboyant-looking stranger beside her, the same man who would now be acting as her husband for the next two years and legitimately so. The only thing that bore witness to the fact that there was someone beside her was the fragrant scent of his masculine perfume that kept tickling her nostrils. She inhaled and exhaled quietly as they moved uniformly and at the same pace. Dante, on the other hand, was a lot more confident. He flashed a broad smile and seized the opportunity presented by Lyra's stiffness to steal as many glances of her face as he could, from the corner of his eyes. She was gorgeous, but she was looking too self-conscious. She needed to “Sell the story.” he thought. He leaned towards her to whisper in the loving way he saw husbands on similar occasions due to their wives. "Put on a little

Chapter 006: Daily Realities
The morning of the following day, Dante pulled the blanket off his body slowly before rising lazily to sit on his double, 75-inch bed. He wiped his face and looked up to check the wall clock. It's was 7:30 am. With a sudden agility, he brushed one of the pillows aside and rolled down from the bed as he headed straight into the bathroom. After taking a cold shower and returning from the bathroom to dress up for work, his nostrils immediately caught the whiff of a really good scent seeping through his bedroom door. He stopped to sniff the air more thoroughly and rolled his eyes pleasantly, his mouth watered with saliva. It was just what he had suspected it to be; the smell of something delicious cooking. He tilted his head to one side in mild perplexity, wondering where the source of the smell could be.The last time he checked, he had no maid. But that thought did not persist for long, because in about two seconds after that, it suddenly came to his remembrance, the fact that he

Chapter 007: Missing Ring
By the time Lyra was done with her project, the sky above had dimmed into a thick shade of black. All her colleagues had gone home; even her boss's office was locked up. She checked the clock; it was 8:30 p.m."Shit!" she whistled under her breath, going back to grab her bag before rushing out of the shop building, right after locking the place up.Outside the shop, the sky was so much darker that she walked briskly towards the main road to find a taxi. Then, as if to make things worse for her, she heard a heavy rumble in the sky, immediately followed by little drops of water trickling down from up above. It was about to rain."God." She muttered nervously as she hastened her footsteps toward the roadside. By the time she was close to the roadside, the drop of rain had increased considerably, so she had to shout to be noticed by the cab men.After about eight of them had zoomed past without stopping, one finally waited. She heaved a sigh of relief and ran towards it."Crestview Est

Chapter 008: What call?
The next morning, Lyra woke up very early; the time on the wall clock was around 4:30 a.m. Dante was still fast asleep in his room. She hurried to the kitchen, and in a space of a few minutes, she prepared a quick breakfast, set up the food flasks, stuffing them up to wait for Dante after cooking. Then she returned to her room, changed into a gown long enough to cover her injured leg, and hurried out of the house.She left the house on foot, searching around the dusty paths and the interlocking tarred road, the same one she followed the previous day, looking down with furrowed eyes as she searched for the diamond ring, but she could not find it; all she could see were stones and sticks washed clean by the rain. She wondered in fear if someone might have picked it.After pacing about the length and width of the long road in vain for some minutes, she sighed in frustration and finally hailed a taxi as she made for her workplace.Later in the day, after closing a little bit earlier than

Chapter 009: Getting back at Dante
The doctor arrived at the ward almost immediately, accompanied by about two nurses, each of whom carried their own separate trays filled with cotton and syrup bottles. Michael was perched in a corner of the room, looking blank and clueless. Lyra, on the other hand, looked like she was going to collapse out of fear at any moment. Her cheeks were shivering, and she kept flapping her hands, calling on Felix's name under her breath."Hold still for me, Felix. Please don't give up."After the doctor appeared to have stabilized him, he turned around to address Michael and Lyra."There's nothing much to worry about, my friends. These are just some of the side effects of the surgery he just had. He will be fine, okay? And one more thing, please. Mr. Felix needs all the rest he can get. Try not to disturb him too much." He cautioned before proceeding out of the room with his nurses.After the doctor left, Lyra gently sat next to him with an emotion-laden face. She leaned forward and pressed her

Chapter 010: It was all a ruse 
Moments after Lyra left, Felix lay rigid on the hospital bed, with Aria sitting next to him. They maintained quietness for about three minutes, staring directly into each other's eyes. When they were sure that Lyra was completely gone and that they had the room all to themselves, Felix's face suddenly flattened into a smile, then he sat up energetically and announced,"It's over. The divorcee, it's completed." "For real?" Aria asked with widened eyes."Hell yeah." Felix quipped excitedly, pulling her into his arms and latching his lips onto hers. They kissed with arms around each other's necks.Then, after they detached, Aria threw a glance behind her and echoed."Wait." She glanced at the door again and said,"What if she comes back now?"Felix shrugged impatiently."And so?" He mumbled with his arms half-suspended."Do I look like I care? The divorce is done and dusted; that's all that matters."Lyra smiled shyly and looked away, looking satisfied at the way he seemed so confident.
