"Aris, kita kan di kampus. Jangan seperti ini, nanti ada yang melihat," ujar Clara dengan nada cemas, mencoba melepaskan diri dari dekapan suaminya. "Kamu lupa kalau aku ini suamimu?" Aris justru menarik tubuh Clara lebih dekat, membuatnya terduduk pas di pangkuannya. "Tapi, bagaimana kalau penggemar Bapak tahu? Ini bisa jadi masalah besar untuk reputasi Bapak," protes Clara, wajahnya memerah antara gugup dan malu. "Aku tidak peduli apa pun yang mereka pikirkan. Yang penting bagiku hanya kamu, Clara, bukan mereka atau siapa pun," ucap Aris lembut, kedua tangannya kini memegang dagu istrinya, memaksanya menatap langsung ke matanya.

Desperada at wala nang ibang mapagpipilian, pumayag si Hiraya Lyn—isang matatag at determinadong dalaga—na pumasok sa isang contract marriage kasama si Nexus Watson, isang malamig at misteryosong bilyonaryo. Hindi simple ang naging dahilan ni Hiraya sa pagsang-ayon niya—ang kanyang nakababatang kapatid ay may malubhang sakit na cancer, at ang perang iniaalok ni Nexus ang tanging pag-asa nilang makapag pagamot ito. Si Nexus, na kilala sa kanyang pagiging walang-awang negosyante, ay may sarili ring dahilan. Ang kanyang pinakamamahal na lola—ang tanging taong minahal niya ng buong-buo—ay tumatanda na at may hiling na makita siyang ikinasal bago ito pumanaw. Upang tuparin ang kahilingan nito—at panatilihing ligtas ang kanyang puso—nag-alok siya ng isang kasunduan. Isang taon lamang ang itatagal ng kanilang kasal, walang sabit, walang damdamin na masasangkot. Habang binabagtas nina Hiraya at Nexus ang kanilang huwad na relasyon, at habang namumuhay sa iisang bubong ay unti-unting nagiging totoo ang nararamdaman nila. Mula sa isang malamig at pekeng kasunduan, unti-unting umusbong ang isang damdaming hindi nila inaasahan—pag-ibig. Pero sa gitna ng mga lihim, pagpapanggap, at sakit, kakayanin ba ng relasyong sinimulan sa kasinungalingan ang paglabas katotohanan?

SAMPUNG TAON... Ganoon katagal nitong minahal si Noah hanggang umabot sa puntong naging parte na ito ng buhay niya. Wala siyang ibang pinangarap kung hindi ang lalaki at kung kailan akala nito ay magiging masaya na sila sa piling ng isa't isa ay kailangan na pala nitong magising sa mahaba at masarap niyang panaginip. "Finally, matatawag ko na ring Nicole Saavedra ang aking sarili nang walang halong pag-aalinlangan. Siguro oras na para anihin ko ang bunga ng pagsisikap ko bilang butihing maybahay ni Noah," aniya saka napangiti sa kinatatayuan. Dalawang taon ang lumipas magmula nang ikasal si Nicole sa bilyonaryong apo ng lalaking kumupkop at nagpalaki sa kaniya. Hindi masukat ang tuwang naramdaman ng puso niya nang mga oras na iyon hanggang sa alukin siya nito ng isang kasunduang maghihiwalay sila pagkatapos ng tatlong taon oras na manatiling walang apoy ang kanilang pagsasama. Sa kabila noon, ginawa ni Nicole ang lahat upang maging mabuti at mapagmahal na asawa habang hindi rin naman ito nagkulang na iparamdam sa kaniya ang prebelihiyo bilang misis nito. Muntik na nga nitong makalimutan ang kasunduan dahil naramdaman niyang tunay na ang ipinapakita nila sa isa't isa.

As soon as I saw her, I knew I had to have her. I thought this Vegas fundraiser was going to be boring—another obligation to keep the family business alive. Wrong. I don’t remember a thing about the night we spent together, other than how good she felt against me, like she was made for me. We woke up the next morning with more than we bargained for—wedding rings. Too bad I don’t believe in true love. I’d feel bad about it, but she’s got a strong opinion of me too. I’m a perpetual bachelor from her perspective. Great. Crazy enough, this could work out for both of us. I need someone to keep my traditional Greek family from nagging me about settling down, and she could use some cash for reasons she doesn’t want to share. I know a good deal when I see one. And if she wants to end up in my bed all over again, all the better…

"After hiding from me for three years, I've finally found you," I say to her, my eyes scanning her from head to toe. "I wasn't hiding. I was simply living my life without you," she scoffs at me, crossing her arms. "It doesn't matter anyway, because here you are now. You look beautiful." "Mr Partridge, I'd appreciate it if we kept things between us strictly professional." There she goes again, calling me by my last name, which was once her own. "We're not working right now. Let's just talk." "Mr Partridge, have a good evening." As she walks away, I'm so captivated by her confidence that I only stand in place and watch her the entire time. I see no trace of the vulnerable woman who was once my wife. Not only is she bold and beautiful, but she hates me. ~~~ Three months after her miscarriage, Layla is served divorce papers by her billionaire husband, Nathan.
