Chapter 23 - You Never Loved Me

When Cole arrived at the hospital earlier, it was not hard for him to locate the VIP ward after speaking to a few nurses.

 Monica was chatting with her caretaker over a movie they were watching after being discharged and waiting for Joanna.

She was still on pain and antibiotics medication at the moment and was glad for the company of her caregiver.

There were lots of questions on her mind to ask her daughter, including how she got money for the surgery when a voice interrupted her thoughts, taking her attention momentarily from the screen.

"I think she's hiding something," the caregiver, Sharon, said. Monica agreed. "I think so too."

"But…" the caregiver was saying when interrupted by the rude opening of the door.

Monica was startled to see the man at the door. It had been over a decade since they saw eye to eye, and some of his hair had turned grey, blending in with the blonde.
