The Billionaire's Sick Wife

A poor girl born with congenital heart disease has not had much hope for the future, but her life takes a sharp turn when a wealthy, handsome man proposes marriage to her following her heart transplant. It was the most surprising thing to happen to her in her 22 years of life. Abigail had never thought that Christopher Sherman, a young, multibillionaire businessman, would approach her and express his desire to marry her. She was ecstatic and accepted his proposal. But little did she know that the 32-year-old handsome guy had a secret reason for wanting to marry her. Abigail stepped into his world with a lot of hope in her heart. But marrying him was not the happy ending. It was just the beginning. Will she be able to keep her heart from breaking? What will happen if she discovers his true motive? ============= "Life was easy before I married you," said Abigail with pain in her eyes. “I was dying, but I was happy.” “What do you mean?” Christopher clasped her arm. “Stop talking nonsense and eat the medicine,” he hissed, placing a tablet in her palm. Under his fiery gaze, Abigail cowered. "Do you find it difficult to meet my demand for a baby? It has been two years, Christopher." He didn’t answer her question. All he did was stare at her, acting mute. “Why do I feel like you don’t care about my feelings?” Abigail asked. “Don’t you love me?” His silence was the clear answer. ============= A special thanks to Aurora, my editor, for her helpful suggestions on how to improve the synopsis.

An unknown danger lurked around.

Abigail came to the market with Janice. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, with vendors and customers engaging in friendly conversation.

Abigail didn't feel out of place. She liked the warm behavior of the locals and began to explore the place.

The market was held in a large open space near the stream she had seen on her way into town. Fresh, locally produced food such as fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy products was abundantly available. Homemade baked items, handmade crafts, and unique gifts drew most of the visitors' attention.

Abigail was also checking on the mind-blowing artisanal crafts.

The vendors were friendly and polite. They shared their own stories about how they made their products.

Abigail was so preoccupied with inspecting the unique crafts that she didn't notice someone sneakily peering at her.
