As he recalled how she had repeatedly mistaken him for Theodore, Holden’s expression turned sour with resentment, almost a hint of jealousy towards this man.

But then he paused and scolded himself for feeling jealous of a man who was no longer alive. Still, his curiosity lingered. An idea crossed his mind, and he reached into a drawer, retrieving a bracelet he had stumbled upon years ago at the hospital.

Just as Holden was about to leave the hospital, he saw a nurse about to discard the bracelet into the trash, alongside other unclaimed items that had been laying around for over three months.
