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.

Christopher's sadness quickly turned into an uncontrollable rage. He needed answers. He had requested his father several times not to try to separate Abigail from him. Now he realized that a request alone was not enough.
If they wanted their son, they had to accept Abigail. Otherwise, he wouldn't hesitate to abandon everything and leave.
Christopher sprang to his feet and stormed out.
"Sir…" A maid approached him when he ran down the stairs.
He paused and frowned at her, clearly annoyed.
His annoyed look terrified the maid. She stepped aside, leaving his path.
"Gloria Madam visited in the afternoon," she mustered her courage to say it. "When she left, I saw madam crying and going into the study. After some time, she came out and left. I called out to her from behind, but she didn't respond."
