Unlovable Beyond Smoke Chapter 25
“It’s a small jar, like something used in a medical lab. There’s also a letter. Your name is on the front,” her secretary said hesitantly.Alicia was silent for a few seconds. “Bring it in.”The secretary returned a moment later with a clear evidence bag in her hands. She placed it carefully on Alicia’s desk.Inside were two things.One was instantly familiar. It was the medical container that had once held her miscarried baby. It was empty. The words “Alicia Leon” and “Embryo” remained clear on its surface.The second item was a crumpled envelope. An envelope that was soaked with snow and then dried out. The writing on it was crooked:[For Alicia.]Alicia waved her hand. The secretary understood and left quietly.Alone in the office, Alicia stared at the two items for a long time. She reached out and touched the envelope. The paper was rough and cold.She opened it. Inside was a thin, crumpled sheet of paper. There was no greeting and no signature. Only two words co

Snow filled the sky. A lone figure curled up on the park bench that had been empty.He wore a thin, worn coat that was already soaked through. His hair had streaks of white and tangled strands. It almost blended into the snow.He held something tightly in his arms and stayed completely still, as if he were asleep or had become part of the frozen world around him.Even from a distance, even though his body looked frail and wasted, Alicia recognized him instantly. It was Matteo.He was still in Rondon. He had come here again.Alicia’s brow furrowed for a brief moment, then relaxed into her usual calm. She took a sip of her drink. The strong liquid slid down her throat and left a faint warmth behind.She looked at him the same way she would look at any homeless stranger outside her window. She felt nothing. His life or death did not matter to her. She did not wonder how he had escaped his caregivers to find this place.The snow fell harder, with no intention of stopping.

Matteo had woken up and escaped from the heavily guarded care facility. He looked like a homeless man and was crouched across from the cold skyscraper. Alicia did not know how long he had been there. He seemed to only want to see, from a distance, a light in her window.Alicia walked ahead without hesitation. She did not even glance at him. She moved straight to the car that was waiting for her.Before she got in, she spoke quietly to the bodyguard. He nodded and crossed the street quickly to the huddled figure. He handed him a check and said in a formal tone, “Sir, this is from Ms. Leon. Please leave and don’t come back.”Matteo lifted his head in confusion. His vacant eyes rested on the bodyguard’s face and then slowly moved to the check. He stayed silent for a few seconds. Finally, he seemed to understand that this check was not charity but a clear boundary.He stretched out his frostbitten hand and took the check without looking at the numbers. The cold wind made th

Time moved like the waters of the Tames, silent and unstoppable.A year passed in the blink of an eye.During that year, Alicia’s name appeared more and more in the headlines of the world’s top financial and legal media. She led several high-profile multinational mergers and antitrust lawsuits that shook the business world. She rose to become a senior equity partner at Clayton & McKenzie International Law Firm. She became one of the most prominent and sought-after figures in Rondon’s legal community.She remained beautiful, composed, and radiated authority. Talented men continued to pursue her, including Alex, who had always stood quietly by her side. Yet she seemed to enjoy the sense of accomplishment and freedom her career gave her more than anything else.Occasionally, she heard fragments of news about Matteo from financial reports or industry contacts. He still lay in a top private care facility in Rondon, alive only because of expensive medical equipment.After ne

Matteo wore a wrinkled, old coat that clashed with everything around him. His face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Blood constantly flowed from the corners of his mouth. A shocking bullet wound near his heart gushed dark red liquid. The blood quickly soaked the ground beneath him.His eyes, once full of pride and later filled with regret, stared at her without blinking. His pupils expanded violently, yet stubbornly held a faint glimmer of light.Time seemed to stop in that instant.Alicia’s bodyguards acted immediately. One raised his gun and stood on alert. The other knelt beside Matteo. He checked Matteo’s injuries and called for an ambulance.The entrance to the restaurant erupted into chaos. Screams and alarms filled the air.Alicia rose with the support of her bodyguards. She looked at Matteo lying in the pool of blood. His breathing was shallow. Her face was blank.Shock and disbelief crashed over her calm mask like waves.Finally, her expression returned to a deep calm.

The conference room was completely silent.Alex frowned and then looked at Alicia.Alicia’s gaze finally fell on the agreement.She reached for it. Her slender fingers lifted the heavy document with careful precision.Matteo’s heart shot into his throat. A faint glimmer of hope shone in his eyes.Alicia did not open the agreement.She held the edge of the document with two fingers.Matteo could not believe what happened next. She tore the agreement slowly. First, into two pieces. Then, into four. Finally, it became a pile of shredded fragments. This agreement represented half of his life’s work. Its value was impossible to calculate.She tore the paper deliberately, as if she were destroying a scrap of waste.The fragments drifted down onto the polished conference table like snow. They also seemed to fall onto Matteo’s heart, which turned to ash in that instant.Finally, she gathered the shredded pieces and threw them into the nearby trash bin.She lifted her eyes and looked

Matteo’s eyes widened. He could hardly believe what he had just heard.His eyes filled with rage.Before he could react, Sophia screamed even louder. It dragged his attention back.“Matteo! My head hurts so much! I’m bleeding so much! I’m scared! Am I going to die, Matteo? Ahhh!!!”“You won’t. D
Unlovable Beyond Smoke Chapter 7
For the next few days, Matteo stayed at the hospital almost every day.He turned down many meetings. Even several important family council sessions were done via video calls. He tried to make up for everything by giving her nutritionists, caregivers, the best doctors, and the most expensive supplem

The evening wind blew in from above and chilled her to the bone.Alicia had planned to be alone for a few minutes, but Sophia quickly followed.At the far end of the terrace was a suspended glass walkway. Below them, the club’s courtyard stretched out. Lights glittered, and people moved like ants.

The sudden news felt like a heavy blow crashing into Alicia’s already restless heart.It took her about three seconds to decide. She was not keeping the baby.It was not that she could not afford it. With her ability and income, she could easily give the child a comfortable life.But she did not
