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.

Trust is more than just words.

Abigail stared out the window, as if the passing countryside held the solutions to her mixed sentiments, during the drive. Christopher cast sidelong looks at her, his mind racing for the appropriate words to bridge the gap between them.

As the silence grew thicker, his patience wore thin. Christopher's fingers tightened on the steering wheel, his frustration and concern mounting. He reached for her hand, his touch a plea for connection, but she withdrew her hand. 

"Abi, please talk to me," he urged. 

Abigail said nothing as if she had not heard him. 

"Look, I am sorry. I admit I made a terrible mistake. I shouldn't have yelled at Jasper…" 

"This is not about yelling at Jasper," she retorted, interrupting him. "It's all about your faith in me. You shouldn't have any problem with me talking to or befriending any man. Your jealousy... it hurts."

"I trust you," he insisted, his voice carrying his earnestness.
