Heart Secret

Mia Lauren had an easy and happy life until she watched everything crumble when she married the man who was supposed to be her safe harbor but is the reason she's drowning. With the dream of becoming an actress and a husband who is the director of a major film agency that doesn't allow Mia to pursue her career, she finds herself forced to chase her dream at any cost. And that's when Mia receives a job offer from a rival film agency to her husband's, and without a second thought, she accepts. Mia will be acting alongside the famous—and attractive—actor Apollo Castiello. A stubborn, confident, and even somewhat arrogant but brilliant coworker. Besides being overwhelmed by her abusive marriage and the secrets she keeps from her husband, Mia can't get Apollo out of her head with each new encounter and realizes—reluctantly—her great chemistry with the actor. When Apollo comes into the picture, everything Mia has built with her husband is at risk, as are the dark secrets that surround every line of this story.

One day, after getting rear-ended outside my office, I, Maeve Dahlman, call out for help, but Austin Cooper, who is simply passing by with Carmen Holt, merely glances at me impatiently, annoyed that I've disrupted their lunch plans. Instead of helping, he has his assistant take me to his private club and lock me in a room, accusing me of being paranoid and dramatic. "I'll give you three days to calm down," he says before walking away and leaving me in isolation. Eventually, I escape and call the police. An ambulance rushes me to the hospital, where doctors diagnose me with a brain injury that requires immediate surgery. I keep calling Austin, only to realize that he has blocked my number. Then, I see Carmen's latest post online, gushing about a romantic luxurious dinner with him. After I'm discharged, I cancel the wedding, destroy all the invitations, and finally call my mother. "Mom," I say, "I've made up my mind. I'm ready to meet him."

When the kidnapper fired the gun, I shielded Scott with my body. The bullet pierced my heart, and I was sent overseas to have my heart exchanged with an artificial one—one that ran on a battery. Because of this heart, Scott married me, and my friends congratulated me for finally having my wish granted, for finally marrying my childhood sweetheart. Later, when I laid there on the operating table with my chest cut open, he was kissing another woman under the moonlight. I didn't react to this in the slightest, recovering my heart in silence. Scott resented my numbness, grabbing my shoulders as he demanded, "Wendy, aren't you angry about this?" He didn't know the reason, and to be honest, it was quite simple. Why be angry when my heart was on the verge of giving out? Every passionate day he spent chasing after love… Was another tick in the countdown to the end of my life.
