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.

The childbirth

On the other hand, Abigail had been rushed to the hospital as she had developed labor pain. Her phone was left in her bedroom.

She writhed in pain, each contraction tearing through her body as Christopher struggled to maintain composure. Panic danced in his eyes as he clutched her trembling hands, striving to reassure her amidst the chaos.

"Hold on, sugar. We will reach the hospital at any time." Christopher's hands holding hers were shaking, but he tried to be confident and comfort Abigail.

"Christopher, tell the driver to drive faster," Abigail pleaded, her voice strained with pain. "I feel like the baby is going to come out right now. Oh, God, this pain- it's unbearable."

"Try to relax, sweetheart," Christopher urged, his touch gentle as he wiped the sweat from her brow. "Just breathe. We're almost there."
