While I Was Dying, He Sang Happy Birthday to Her

Synopsis

During six years of marriage, Lena is constantly neglected by her husband. Six months pregnant, she suddenly suffers severe pain and begins bleeding at home. As she lies on the brink of death, she calls her husband Marcus seventeen times, but he never answers. That night, Marcus is aboard a yacht singing “Happy Birthday” to his first love, Sloane Whitmore, who deliberately hangs up on Lena’s plea for help. A stranger rushes Lena to the emergency room, but her premature daughter, June, dies. Lena then files for divorce, leaves for New York, and builds a dessert business called June’s in her daughter’s memory. The stranger who saved her turns out to be Grayson West, the managing partner of Maison Delacroix and the man who has quietly protected her for eleven years. Marcus follows her to New York, consumed by regret, but can only face the marriage he has lost. With Grayson’s steady and unconditional love, Lena rebuilds her life and chooses true companionship and a new beginning.
