If Rhoda was thinking she would have a 'happily-ever-after' story, she had better think again because fate has another plan in store for her. After being abandoned abroad for eight years, her parents call her back into the country just to use her to save their dying business by marrying her off to a billionaire equals a jerk. Jeffrey suggested an open marriage since the two of them were in love with someone else. What will be their fate when the ones they were in love with break up with them after signing the open marriage contract? Will they try to make things work between them or just keep the marriage open? Will she be able to watch her husband with other women without doing anything? Or will she try to win him over to herself since divorce isn't an option? Will things become more complicated after realizing that her father's business might not be liquidating after all and she has an identical twin who has been committing atrocities and making people believe it's her?

Chapter 01

Rhoda stirs awake at the knock on her door. She sits up and the door creaks open gently and reveals her aunt. She rubs her eyes and asks her to come in. "Is there a problem?" She glances at her wall-clock which says one in the morning. "It's late."Her aunt smiles. "Not a thing, darling. My brother called me just now. Obviously, he has been trying to reach you.""Dad called? I don't believe that he has been trying to reach me. You must've heard him wrong, aunt Martha." She reached for her phone on the locker beside her bed and saw the missed calls from her father. She was surprised. Why was he suddenly reaching out to her? He had sent her to live abroad with his younger sister when she was seventeen. And since then, he barely called to ask her how she was doing. Her mother managed to call a few times. "I think you should listen to whatever he has to say, my dear. It seems urgent," Martha said before walking out of the room. Rhoda shrugged and was about to go back to bed when the ba...

The book is well written, despite it being a Nigerian setting, the first five chapters had different emotions embedded in them; anger, hurt, hate, everything and they were well described. I can't wait to keep reading to see how it goes. Kudos to the writer

Chapter 02
Rhoda didn't know whether to start laughing or start crying. She didn't know the right emotion she could express to show how she was feeling, so she settled on forcing a laugh which ended like some terrible car honk. "What kind of joke was that? Stop it, dad. It's not funny at all."Her mother sighed and held her hands. "It's not a joke, my dear. And I am so sorry we did not tell you until now. You wouldn't have come home if —""I still find it hard to believe all of this," Rhoda said. "Why would I get married? All of a sudden? To whom? The last time I checked, we were apart for years and I don't remember bringing someone home to you. So, why… how? Please, tell me this is a prank because it is getting serious," she said as calmly as she could and looked at her father. Not that she didn't feel like raising her voice at the two of them. She wouldn't mind the whole building hearing them.Imagine so many people coming to a wedding that the supposed bride was not even aware of? Did that ma

Chapter 03
"You may now kiss your bride," he heard the officiant say. If Jeff had thought that Rhoda would stand on her words about not getting married to him, he was terribly wrong. He could not help but glare at her with anger and building dislike for her. How could someone not be able to stand on their words? What was so wrong in doing that? Guilt was ripping him alive. What would he tell his girlfriend? How would he be able to face her? She definitely wouldn't believe his story about the marriage. Who would? He loved his girlfriend and not this beautiful stranger with tempting lips that was glaring at him behind the veil with the same intensity he had on. But what needed to be done must be done. So, he leaned closer to her face and unveiled her, but what she did shocked him.She backed off. Rhoda pulled back in front of everyone. "If you try it…," she whispered."You'll kill me, so you said. But you don't have to worry because you're not my type at all. You should see my girlfriend," Jef

He rushed out and dragged Rhoda by one hand and her bag by another and straight into his room. He didn't mind her protest to break free but told her to shut up instead. "Do not drag me, asshole. I'm not a cow." Who cared if he dragged her like a cow? That was not the important thing at that moment. Thank God he had changed into a casual outfit and a t-shirt his girlfriend gave to him on his birthday which had become his favorite one since then. That was the previous year. And the girl who gave it to him was downstairs and must not come up here to see what was going on. He might be a billionaire, but he's not a cold and nasty one. Well, not to his girlfriend. He loved with passion and wanted to be loved too. He was one of the few billionaires who believed in the existence of true love. "Stay here," he told his bride and went downstairs to meet with the angry face of his girlfriend. "Hey, babe. What's wrong?" "What do you mean what's wrong?" His mind started wondering if she

Chapter 05
He went to knock on his wife's door a week after their wedding. Nothing special has happened actually. They had been maintaining their distances. And no, no honeymoon. That's for those that are in love and they are not. He had been pondering long and hard on what he could do to release the tension between them. Well, it wasn't typically a tension when you are ignoring each other, right? But he was feeling guilty about being married and also having a girlfriend outside the marriage. Well, it was the marriage that happened outside of his relationship. He didn't know why, but he was feeling as if he was cheating on the wife he did not even love.Why was he disturbed when they were only married on paper? Well, he didn't want to know. All that mattered was the fact that he had come up with the best solution for the two of them and that was what he was going to discuss with her.He knocked again. "Hey," he called. Wait, how could you call your wife that?"What do you want?" Rhoda asked i

Chapter 06
Rhoda got dressed and walked out of her husband's house. He had gone to work and since she had no work to do, she spent most of her time with her boyfriend who had no idea about her sudden marriage yet.Nas, her boyfriend, also arrived in the country a few days after her marriage. Rhoda knew she should keep no secret from him, but not something like marriage. She knew him well enough. He was quick to make decisions. He was very quick to jump to conclusions. She could lose him and that was the least thing she wanted.She pressed the ignition button on her car and drove out of the compound, making her way onto the road. She could not stop grinning from ear to ear and humming throughout the drive to Nas' house.She slighted from her car and walked into the house. She must confess that she loved the house even though it was nowhere near her husband's. Jeff was a billionaire, but her boyfriend wasn't and that was perfectly fine. She still finds it hard to believe that he was the owner of

"Mum, please. Get me out of the marriage. I don't want it, please," Rhoda pleaded with her mother. She had decided to go to her parents' house since they were the one who could get her out of the mess she was in. She could not bear to lose her boyfriend. Not after building a strong relationship with him for years. Not after their plans to get married. Not after everything they had been through together. She understood him. She could have done worse in his shoes. He would come to his senses and take her back. She knew he would. He was just angry at the moment. He wouldn't just throw away everything they had just like that. Her mother hugged her and patted her back. "I am sorry, Rhoda, but there is nothing I can do about this. We talked about this and you agreed to it, remember?"Why was she talking as if she agreed because she wanted it? Did she even care about her happiness at all? "How about dad?""His business is just starting to do well, my dear. We're also doing this for you."

Jeffery's eyes became wide open in shock at the kiss. What had gotten over her? Before he could push her back, she withdrew and faced Karen's burning eyes. "How dare you!" Karen roared before glaring at Jeff for not doing anything about it. Rhoda smiled. "You wanted to know who I am. I am his wife. She opened her purse secretly as she talked and put on her wedding ring and showed it to her. "We're married, so…"Jeff covered her mouth with his palm. "Shut the fuck up or else…" He watched as Karen walked in and was back within seconds. With her bag. He held her hand and tried to explain what had just happened, but she wasn't ready to listen."It would have been a different case if she was your girlfriend. But… your wife? Like, marriage?" Karen shouted. "How could you do this to me? You got married to someone else while I was out of town and you even have the nerve to keep it from me and… and… Just fuck off, Jeffrey." She started walking down the stairs, still in his shirt, but that di

Chapter 09
Rhoda got out of bed, went to the shower and started getting ready for the day. Not that she had anything to do in particular. She was going to watch TV series, read and sleep all day. She was trying her best and was giving it her all not to stay heartbroken. She would do whatever she had to in order to get Nas off her mind.Even if she had to take it all on her husband. She walked out of her room and passed by Jeff's door to go to the living down the stairs, but the door which was slightly opened made her stop and take a few steps back to give her enough view of what he was doing.She saw him as he answered his call, looking all serious as he talked into the phone. "Asshole" was all that came out of her mouth. She watched intently as he walked in and out of his live-in closet, bringing out different suits to put on. ""Yeah. I'll be there in an hour. Sure, I'll be there. It's an important deal," she heard him say and had started walking away before an idea struck her.The best way

"Believe me, I'll run to New York if I can right now. That's how much I missed you, Aunt Martha," Rhoda smiled as she said into the phone. After having the heated argument with Jeff, he had angrily walked out of her sight into his room and had not come out ever since. That was about four hours ago, but did she care about that? Heck no!"So, how is it going in your marriage, my dear?" Her aunt asked, making her adjust on her seat and sighed.She smiled as she replied. "It is annoying, but… ugh! I can't complain," she said and shrugged. "I understand you, darling. And I am very sorry that happened to you —," she was still talking when Rhoda saw her husband walking out of his room and started walking towards her when he sighted her. Her mouth became wide open at the sight of Jeff's skin and very pale face. What was wrong with him? All of his visible skin was swollen and sore except his face.Rhoda jumped to her feet. "I'll give you a call back. My husband seems sick," she said. "Alri
