Thieves of My Son's Mother's Love

Summary

"Daddy, I want to see Mommy," my son, Simon Lloyd, murmurs after he regains consciousness on the hospital bed.

I freeze for a moment and instinctively look toward the hospital room door. No one is there.

Yesterday, after Simon came out of the operating room, my wife, Selena Aston, held his hand and said, "Don't worry. I'll be right outside waiting for you. I'm not going anywhere."

Why is she nowhere in sight?

I begin to panic and pull out my phone to call her, but there's no answer.

Just then, I see a new photo posted on Instagram. Her male colleague, Joe Carter, is the one who posted it.
