Chapter 23

Summer Frost POV

“We are here, ma’am, Miguel’s voice pulled me out of my train of thoughts as the car came to a stop, and I realized we were already in the parking lot of the hospital when I looked out through the window.

“Hmm,” I removed my seatbelt and was going to step out of the car when Miguel spoke up.

“Should I come with you, ma’am?

“I won’t stay long there. Wait for me in the car,” And with that, I pushed the car door open and stepped out of it.

“Mrs Hughes senior is in the VIP room. It’s on the third floor Following the information Miguel had given me, I made my way straight to the elevator which took me to the third floor where I stepped out and headed toward the room where she was said to be.

My heart wrenched painfully in my chest and my eyes brimmed with tears as I stood in front of the door minutes later, Recalling everything that had transpired between myself and this woman years ago, I didn’t know if I wanted to see her face. Of course, if I was told years ago that I would ever be in a position to save her life, I would’ve denied it, but now, I was sure of it. Not that I have made my decision yet, anyway.

I pushed the door open gently and walked inside, Just as I had expected, she was lying on the bed, half-dead with an oxygen tank over her face and on a life supporting machine.

“Nobody is going to save you now, Summer. Leave my son’s life’ Those words were still fresh in my head even after so many years. How she didn’t allow me to explain myself that night, how she didn’t even allow me to pass the night in her warm house. Even though she hated me, she could’ve done that for the sake of humanity, yeah?

Slowly, I counted my steps toward the bed where she was lying, and I soon halted beside it.

“It’s been ages, mother-in-law. I didn’t expect I was going to see you in this condition…” My voice trailed off and a drop of tears slid down the corner of my cheek. I had no idea why the f F uck I was shedding tears though, it was just coming naturally.
