PART 18 — MONEY COULDN'T BUY BACK TRUST
Talatu survived.
Her body slowly began healing.
But something else had been damaged.
Trust.
Years of neglect couldn't disappear because Ibrahim suddenly became attentive.
The hospital stay had saved her life.
But it couldn't erase every wound.
Talatu looked at Ibrahim differently now.
Not with hatred.
Not with revenge.
Just with the quiet understanding that she had learned something about her husband she could never unlearn.
Money could pay hospital bills.
But it couldn't buy back the years he had wasted.
