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.

Is fate working against Christopher?

Christopher came back to the room, a tray of food balanced carefully in his hands. His steps were measured and his movements were deliberate as he navigated the space.

Abigail was still in the closet, her voice cold and detached. "Put it on the dresser, please."

Christopher's frustration simmered below the surface, but he complied silently. He placed the tray of food on the dresser with a careful touch.

The coldness in her words pinched his heart, a stinging reminder of the distance that had crept between them. This wasn't how he envisioned their day going. He wanted passion, excitement, and connection, not this awkward, forced distance.

However, he understood that this was necessary. For Abigail, it was a matter of self-preservation; for him, it was a chance to demonstrate his commitment.
