Too late, I am no longer your wife CHAPTER 62 Natasha’s Polite Visit
By Tuesday afternoon, I had gone through four boxes of foundation papers, and the sentence I was looking for was nowhere to be found.I had started with the early letters, then Dr Warren’s correspondence, then the board minutes from the first year. I read every page looking for anything about who had been at Sam’s bedside at the end and who had not.I found notes about insurance, a complaint about parking, and a thank-you card from a family I had almost forgotten.Nothing about Charles, tho I had expected that to feel like a relief.The desk phone rang at ten to four.“Dr Tina, Natasha is at the front desk,” the receptionist said. “She doesn’t have an appointment. She says you’ll know her.”I looked at the open box on my desk and the lid beside it. “ Send her up.” I saidI put the lid on the box and slid it under the desk then I turned the hospital audit log face down. Nobody needed to see the word Friday written in my notes.Natasha came in carrying two paper cups from the café downs
Too late, I am no longer your wife CHAPTER 61 The Woman Who Knew Too Much
By eight the next morning, I had the hospital’s reference number and the email headers side by side. The headers showed which servers the message had passed through, but nothing about who had sent it. The address belonged to a free email service. The name field said Enquiries. I called the hospital’s privacy office instead of waiting for the lawyer’s letter to get a reply. “What does someone need to act on a family’s behalf when it comes to a child’s file?” I asked. “A signed authorisation from a parent, along with identification for an archived record, we also need a second signature.” the woman replied “And an email that only claims to have permission?” I asked “Gets our standard reply, which is what this one got.” “I want the access log for Sam’s file, everyone who has opened it since it was archived the names, dates, and the reasons they gave.” I told her “That requires a formal audit, It could take until Friday.” she said “Then please start it.” I told her “Dr Tina, I h
Too late, I am no longer your wife CHAPTER 60: A Question About Sam
At two, I called Daniel Chen.I had the lawyer's log in front of me, with the dates marked beside each entry.“The first hospital request came thirty-one days before the article was expected to appear,” I said. “The second came twenty days before it. Larkfield paused its funding discussions four days before the planned publication.”Daniel was quiet for a moment.“So the requests came before the article,” he said.“Yes. But the dates don't tell us who made the requests or whether the people who raised concerns later had seen them.”“I understand.”I waited for him to ask about the review, the funding, or what his advisers needed from me. Instead, he said, “There's another issue they want to raise.”I sat back.“What issue?”“They called it a question of independence. They want to know whether having a personal connection to the research has affected your judgment.” He paused. “I think they're asking whether your son's treatment has influenced your decisions.”I looked down at the log.
Too late, I am no longer your wife CHAPTER 59 Before the Article
The hospital's package reached my lawyer at nine the next morning, and she called me four minutes later.The five o'clock deadline had passed. The Family Trust had already rejected our application, but I still didn't know whether the person who had threatened me had sent the trustees more information.“It’s eleven pages,” my lawyer said. “Come over. I want us to go through them together.”When I arrived, she had taken the small meeting room on the second floor. A stack of papers sat on the table beside a stapler, coloured tabs, and a sheet with columns marked item, received, from, and handled by.I reached for the papers, but she placed her hand on top of them.“Let's check the dates first, then who received them, and then what they say,” she said.“I want to know who sent them,” I replied.“I know, but we need to start with what we can prove.”She turned the first page towards me. It was the request the hospital had held. The sender was listed as Research Coordination Team, and the em
Too late, I am no longer your wife CHAPTER 58 The Meeting That Wasn’t on the Calendar
The email arrived at 8:47. It says; Dr. Tina,The donor advisory group will meet at ten to review the foundation’s funding position. Please attend item two. The agenda is attached.I opened my calendar; there was no meeting listed.“Did anyone tell you about this?” I asked Miriam when she came into my office.“No, I would have flagged it.” She leaned over my shoulder. “Why does it say they’re reviewing the funding position? I thought they were still considering it.”“So did I,” I repliedI opened the attachment. The agenda had four items and the second read:Outstanding concerns and conditions for continued support. I had received no document explaining the concerns.I called the secretary listed at the bottom of the email.“Is there a paper for item two?” I asked“It has already been circulated to the group,” she replied.“Not to me,” I told her“I understand, Dr. Tina, but the chair has asked us to proceed with the existing agenda.”“Then I need a copy before the meeting,” I told h
Too late, I am no longer your wife CHAPTER 57 The Terms of Help
Adrian arrived at five and found me at the meeting-room table, surrounded by printed messages from parents.The tea Miriam had brought earlier sat untouched beside them. I pushed it aside to make room for another page.“Have you found anything?” I asked.He pulled out a chair and looked through the screenshots.“Whoever started this wanted people to pass it on,” he said. “The messages are written to make parents afraid enough to share them without checking if they're true.”“That much is obvious. I need to know who started them.”He turned to the next page.“We need to work backwards, find out who received each message first, then who sent it to them,” Adrian said“And if they don't remember?” I asked“Then we look for someone who does,” he repliedI watched him study the pages. He moved through them quickly, stopping at certain messages and comparing their wording with the others.“Start with the smaller group,” he said. “The message appeared there before it reached the larger one.”

Charles PovWhen Charles woke up that morning, he felt the house was unusually quiet. He called for his wife, "Tina?" but there was no response, and irritation was already creeping into his voice. He walked downstairs; the dining table was set as usual, and a single envelope was placed neatly besid
Too late, I am no longer your wife Chapter 3: The Last Performance
For the next couple of days I carried on with my life; some days the grief was loud and violent, and other days I was able to hide it behind a smile. I learned quickly how to move on with myself.When Charles returned home three days after Sam’s funeral, I greeted him at the door like nothing had c
Too late, I am no longer your wife Chapter Two: The Beautiful Lie
Someone had closed Sam’s eyes; his lashes were still damp when the nurse covered his small body with the white sheet.I sat beside Sam’s empty bed long after the doctors left. No tears came; it was as if my body had forgotten how to cry.My phone vibrated in my hand; it was CharlesI stared at his

“I am sorry, Mrs. Wesley, the child's symptoms seems to be getting worse; I will recommend you transfer him to another practitioner," the doctor announced“You mean there is nothing that can be done?” I asked, holding my child close to me“For now we can manage the symptoms, but there is no known c
