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.

"What?" Both Christopher and Brad exclaimed, shocked.
"Are you sure?" Christopher's eyebrows knitted tighter.
Benjamin let out a sigh. "Her maid discovered her naked body in the shower. Her wrist had been slashed."
While Brad was still gaping at him, Christopher's disposition was obscured with sadness. He was also sorry and assumed she had committed suicide because he had fired her.
"The police are assuming it is a suicide based on the preliminary investigations. However, they will confirm it only after the autopsy is done."
Christopher nodded but could not process the shocking news.
"An officer has come to speak with you about the case," said Benjamin. His palms were sweating. He tried to be calm, but he was still nervous.
"The cops are here!" Brad exclaimed.
Benjamin nodded and revealed, "They are questioning the staff members as well."
Christopher arched one eyebrow. "Okay… Bring him in."
