The Billionaire's Sick Wife

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.

Nothing is more important to me than you.

Christopher tried to ignore the nagging thought, reminding himself that he shouldn't make assumptions without evidence. But the sight of her standing there, seemingly disturbed by the news, made him uneasy.

Breaking the tense silence, he forced a smile and spoke, attempting to push aside the lingering doubts. "You're awake," he said gently.

"Yes, um…" Abigail's response was slightly hesitant, her words stumbling over each other. "I have been looking for you. When I didn't find you in the bedroom, I came down here."

She diverted her gaze back to the news report playing on the TV. "This news! Uh… Mr. Harper… Is-Isn't he the same man… I mean, your rival? The man who tried to snatch the land deal from you!"

Christopher kept a tight eye on her, trying to read her expression for any clues to her involvement. Her shock seemed genuine, and his suspicion began to waver. Perhaps she was completely unaware of the circumstances.
