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.

Boom…
Christopher felt as if his head had blown up. The revelation that Alison had died at the hands of Abigail's sister hit him like a bolt of lightning, sending shockwaves of anguish and bewilderment through his entire existence.
The image of Alison's bloodied face flashed across his mind, heightening the misery coursing through his heart.
The air seemed to thicken around him as the weight of unanswered questions pressed in. The flickering light cast eerie shadows, intensifying the sense of unease that enveloped him.
His eyes glazed over as he tried to make sense of the tangled web of secrets that had unfolded before him. His hands trembled, longing to reach out and grasp the elusive strands of truth. The deafening roar of his rushing thoughts filled the room's silence.
In his mind, he replayed the car accident that had claimed Alison's life.
Questions multiplied in his mind, each more haunting than the last.
