Forced to Seduce His Wife — Episode 1: Get Her Into Bed

Scandal starts small in Episode 1 of Forced to Seduce His Wife. Ethan, a bartender, throws a punch at a man who grabbed a waitress, and the only photo anyone has shows his fist, not the grab. Bar owner Richard Hale offers a way out. The man is close to Richard's biggest investor and wants Ethan behind bars, unless Ethan signs on as the new assistant to Richard's wife. The real assignment is dirtier: get her into bed on camera, because Richard wants a divorce. Seven days on the clock.

Then Ethan meets Samantha Hale, CEO of Hale Estates, in a white suit beside her car. She signs contracts, tells him he looks like he hasn't eaten all week, and swears she takes care of her people. His first errand sends him into her bedroom for a blue folder. Tucked inside a gold picture frame, a tiny camera is already watching.
