Alexander Schmidt war betrunken und rief immer wieder den Namen seiner unerreichbaren Liebe. Am nächsten Morgen wachte er auf und erinnerte sich an nichts. Er forderte Theresa Meier auf: „Finde die Frau von letzter Nacht!“ ... Theresa war schließlich verzweifelt und reichte Alexander die Scheidungspapiere ein. Als Grund gab sie an: „Die Frau wünscht sich Kinder, aber die Ehe ist wegen der Unfruchtbarkeit des Ehemanns gescheitert.“ Alexander, der nichts von alldem wusste, wurde wütend, als er die Nachricht erhielt. Er ließ Theresa zurückholen, um ihr zu beweisen, dass er sehr wohl zeugungsfähig war. Eines Abends, als Theresa von der Arbeit nach Hause kam, wurde sie plötzlich im Treppenhaus in eine Ecke gedrängt: „Wer hat dir erlaubt, ohne meine Zustimmung die Scheidung einzureichen?“ Theresa antwortete: „Du bist unfruchtbar, und ich soll keinen anderen Mann suchen dürfen?“ In dieser Nacht wollte Alexander Theresa zeigen, ob er tatsächlich zeugungsfähig war. Doch als Theresa einen Schwangerschaftsbericht aus ihrer Tasche zog, wurde Alexander wütend und fragte: „Wessen Kind ist das?“ Alexander suchte überall nach dem Vater des Kindes.

One night of boldness leads to a marriage of convenience. Just a plain agreement. No commitment but a lot of sex. She is liking the setup until the 'right one' came back. Without a fuss, she left, bringing the memories and another heartbeat. ********** Dumped by her two-year relationship for the reason of her being prude and frigid, Alexzia Montes proves she was otherwise. With four glasses of wine in her system, she delved into a passionate night with a stranger she randomly picked. "Do I need to pay you? How much?" she outrightly asked. "Can you afford me?" he snickers. "Just tell me how much" she stubbornly retorted. She is getting pissed by his arrogance. "500 billion dollars" he briefly replies with raised challenging brows. "What?" she mumbles in disbelief. "My present net worth is more or less 500 billion dollars" he unconcernedly replied. Stunned, she becomes quiet. "That's why you look familiar..." she frustratedly whispers, facepalming herself. The man she often sees on tv and in newspapers but hasn't met in person. The only person in the country who has a five hundred billion net worth. "CEO Lucien Wright..." she whispers in despair, almost indistinct. Of all people, she had chosen the cold and ruthless CEO of Wright Group of Companies. How could she afford him? He could even buy her, body and soul. "I need a wife, a bait for my girlfriend to come back. Name your price" he casually announced, handing her the documents. "Once she is back, you will sign the divorce paper and peacefully leave. I will pay you, just name the amount" he added. The offer is tempting Alexzia. She needs ten million dollars and it's an impossible plight but she has an easy way out, being a Ten Million Dollar Wife to CEO Wright.
