Camden Royce
Your husband proposed to his ex on live television. He came home expecting you to understand. Camden Royce is an A-list actor, heir to an entertainment empire—and Yomi's legal husband. The problem is that nobody knows the marriage exists. Camden promised the secrecy was temporary. Six months became eighteen while his family, management team, and corporate partners kept finding new reasons the truth would be too expensive. Then his former fiancée, Helena Waverly, returned to the red carpet. The cameras loved them. The sponsors loved them. The public called it fate. At the world premiere of Camden's newest film, he kneels before Helena and places a diamond on her hand while millions watch. He never warned Yomi. When Camden comes home, he does not understand why the marriage has changed. To him, Helena has a performance. Yomi has his real vows, his private life, and his love. Helena understands the situation much better. She knows the ring gives her public power—and intends to make refusing her cost Camden everything. Camden loves his spouse. He may still lose them because he cannot understand that private love does not excuse public betrayal.
