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.

Abigail couldn't sleep at night and woke up early. She got ready, hoping Jasper would arrive any time.
Ding-Dong…
Meanwhile, the doorbell rang. Abigail thought it was Jasper and hurriedly went to open the door.
It was Christopher, much to her surprise.
Her jaw hung open, wondering if he hadn't gone home the night before. But this thought was dispelled as soon as she saw him wearing fresh clothes.
He appeared to have gotten up early and rushed over here.
"Good morning…" Christopher grinned.
He had his driver arrange some clothes and toiletries since he was not going home. He had even used the public toilet to freshen up in the morning, not caring about the discomfort. All he had on his mind was staying close to Abigail.
He had bought breakfast from the nearby café and returned to her.
"I brought you some breakfast," he said, placing the bag on the dining table.
Abigail stared at him, still dazed.
