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.

Ella's demand caught Jasper off guard.
Jasper sighed, his shoulders sagging under the weight of his secrets. He knew he couldn't keep hiding the truth forever, but he wasn't sure how much he was willing to share. He glanced around the room, contemplating something.
"A tragic incident separated Mr. Hubbard from his daughters," he started, his tone measured. "Christopher's parents adopted Britney, and Rachel, my neighbor, brought Abigail home. Both sisters grew up apart, unaware of their connection. They didn't know they were sisters when Abigail married Christopher."
The revelation struck Ella with a sense of dread, shattering her preconceptions. She had believed Sebastian had kept his daughters away to shield them from potential dangers. That was what everyone had said. But the reality was completely different from what people had said.
"You mean Britney didn't know when she tried to kill her sister?" Ella murmured in a daze, stunned by the revelation.
