The culprit of the novel My Heart is Between Abu Dhabi and Kuwait
The events of the novel take place in the nineties of the last century in the city of Abu Dhabi. The protagonist, Ali, worked as an employee in his father’s company after his father urged him to do so. He not only married Hamad’s cousin, who shares the company’s profits with his father.
Ali feels tremendous pressure from his parents. He does not feel that the time has come for him to make a decision in his life.
As fate would have it, he went with Hamad's aunt on a business trip to Kuwait. The director of the Kuwaiti company was late for the meeting, so his daughter, Sharifa, was forced to meet the Emirati delegation. Ali saw her and his heart burned with love for her, and so did she.
The agreement was not completed between the two parties due to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait.
