Divorce for a Night's Husband

79 Episodes

Lucas Thorne, a billionaire CEO known for his ice-cold precision, has one final loose end to tie up before a mega-merger: his engagement. He wants it dissolved cleanly, quietly, and immediately. He hires the infamous "Sphinx," a divorce attorney so effective she’s never lost a case and never reveals her identity. Unbeknownst to him, the Sphinx is Elena, his own fiancée—the woman he’s been too busy to notice and the same stranger he shared a single, passionate, and anonymous night with weeks ago. Elena takes the case, her heart breaking as she reads the cold, clinical file detailing her own supposed faults. She decides to give him one last test, presenting herself as his ruthless legal adversary. In tense meetings, she dismantles his arguments and forces him to confront the emotional void in their relationship, all while he remains oblivious to her dual identity. The conflict explodes when Lucas, frustrated by the lawyer's insight, lets slip a detail only someone who shared his bed would know. The realization hits them both like a physical blow. Now, the legal battle turns deeply personal. Elena holds the ultimate power: she can grant his wish for a divorce with a signature, destroying him in the process. Lucas is left reeling, forced to confront the emptiness of his life and the magnitude of his blunder. As corporate rivals circle and the merger threatens to collapse, he must do the one thing he's never done: beg. But for Elena, this is about more than an apology. It's about making the man who thought he could buy and sell everything understand the priceless cost of a broken heart.
