Although Jordan and Clara were married, they were not each other’s first choice. Jordan (Joseph Benjamin) cast aside the love of his life when his mother convinced him to marry Clara (Amaka Chukwujekwu). His mother was impressed with Clara’s integrity and business acumen. After some nudging, her wish came true and Clara became her daughter-in-law.

The problem was that Clara was engaged to another man at the time. No one knew it and she secretly disposed of her fiancé like yesterday’s news.

The story revealed that Clara really did love her ex-fiancé, Johnson (Ramsey Nouah) but according to rumors, his family was cursed. With members of his family dying young, she feared she would become a widow and that led her to marry Jordan instead.
