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.

Benjamin approached with a stoic face and said, "Sorry to disturb you. Dad called me just now. He is not feeling well. I need to go home."
Concern flashed across Christopher's face, and he furrowed his brow as he responded, "Yes, of course. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call me."
Benjamin nodded, his eyes flickering towards Brad before he turned to leave. The door closed behind him, leaving a momentary silence in its wake.
The atmosphere in the cabin remained subdued for a while after Benjamin's departure, both men's thoughts lingering on the door where he had exited. A heavy silence settled around them, underscoring the concern they felt for Benjamin.
"He has become so quiet ever since he returned," Brad mused.
Christopher nodded. "He is obviously very upset about his father's health. I had no notion his father had a cardiac condition. He never mentioned it before."
