Roland Obikwe has it all—wealth, influence, and a picture-perfect family. But beneath the glossy surface lies a fault line no one dares to speak of. When he introduces Megan, a striking second wife, into his home without warning, his carefully constructed world begins to fracture. What he sees as tradition, his first wife Erika sees as betrayal. And what Megan believed was a fairytale quickly curdles into a slow-burning nightmare.
Tensions simmer behind closed doors. Erika is forced to confront not just Roland’s deceit, but the haunting reality that everything she helped build is being handed to someone else. Megan, once celebrated, now finds herself isolated—trapped between the expectations of being a wife and the growing suspicion that love was never part of the bargain.
As loyalties unravel and secrets fester, the Obikwe household becomes a battleground of quiet resentments and dangerously withheld truths. The children watch. The walls whisper. And somewhere, deep within the silence, something is waiting to break.
A House Divided is a gripping portrait of fractured love, silent wars, and the devastating price of pride. When the foundation cracks, will anyone survive what rises from the ruins?
