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 shook her head as she gently wiped her tears away, the emotional storm still visible in her eyes. "No, I am fine."
"Then what happened all of a sudden that made you so distressed?" he wondered.
The atmosphere was heavy with concern, both for Abigail's well-being and the emotional turmoil she had just experienced. Christopher was determined to understand and help her through whatever had caused her such distress.
Abigail became lost in her thoughts, the fading light of the setting sun casting a somber tone over the balcony. Elsa's hurtful words continued to reverberate in her mind, intensifying her feelings of despair. She tried to fight back her tears, but they welled up in her eyes, betraying her efforts to hold them back.
Christopher sensed her distress and reacted swiftly. He gently pulled her into a warm embrace and used his thumb to tenderly wipe her tears away, his voice tinged with concern.
