My Wealthy Ex-Husband Refused to Help Pay for Our Daughter’s Medical Care Because He ‘Already Had a New Family’ – But Karma Caught Up with Him Soon

At that moment, Olivia woke up and winced. “Dad?”

He gave a small nod. “Hey, kiddo.”

She smiled, but it was hesitant.

I stood up slowly.

“What’re you doing here?”

Instead of responding, he stepped further into the room and looked at Olivia.

“How are you feeling?” he asked her.

“Everything hurts,” she said honestly.

“I’m sorry, kiddo.”

There was an awkward silence.

“What’re you doing here?”

Then my ex-husband turned to me.

“Can we talk outside?”

I nodded, and we stepped into the hallway.

“I spoke to Mark,” Ethan said.

Mark.

The name clicked. It was the man I’d called, Ethan’s business partner.

Ethan exhaled, running a hand over the back of his neck.

“He had questions,” he admitted. “A lot of them. He’s reviewing things. The business partnership. My decisions.”

I didn’t say anything, fearing the worst.

“I spoke to Mark.”

“But I’m not here about that. I’m here for our daughter.”

For a second, I didn’t know if I believed him.

“What are you saying?” I asked.
