By the next day, the headlines were brutal:
"Secret Child Shocker! Dami Okonkwo's Fake Wife Demands Divorce!"
Teni stared at the screen. "I never said that!"
"You didn't," Dami growled. "Camille did."
To calm the investors, NovaTech's PR team suggested an "amicable separation."
"You want us to pretend to split up?" Teni asked.
Dami looked pained. "Just for a week. Until this blows over."
Teni swallowed hard. "Fine. But I want custody of the dog."
"We don't have a dog."
"Then get me one. I need something to win."
