When a Love Letter Resurfaces Chapter 10
Ryder had Eliza admitted to the psychiatric hospital because of her deteriorating mental state.Though Allan did his best to suppress the press, rumors that the CEO of Woods Corp was mentally unstable spread like wildfire within half a day. The first message Eliza saw upon waking up was from Theo.He had been vacationing abroad for a while. Since he hadn't returned, Eliza hadn't bothered with him either. She had only replied to a few of his messages here and there, and once Theo realized something was off, he stopped reaching out entirely. His latest text was a notice to break off their engagement.Eliza stared blankly at the screen for a moment before typing a single word in response. "Okay."The corporate interests of their families were deeply intertwined, and since the engagement, their businesses had been mutually beneficial. Calling it off would inevitably trigger a massive shock to both of their stock prices. And with Eliza currently drowning in negative press, she would b

According to Ryder, I was a very strong person.I didn't cry when I missed out on my dream college. I didn't cry when I spent ten hours a day at a sweatshop assembly line. Even when I found out I had leukemia, my eyes remained completely dry."You know what he told me? He said he ran out of tears after that night. I didn't know what had happened to him back then. I thought he was still blaming me. But when I found out, I wished he had hated me. At least then, he wouldn't have lost the will to live entirely."Chemotherapy was agonizing, but the terror of the unknown was worse.Death was closing in, yet the process of getting there was pure torture. Gasping for air in that hospital bed, I felt a deep, overwhelming hatred for the first time in my life. But hate was too heavy a burden, and I no longer had the strength to carry it.I had grabbed Ryder's hand and begged him to take me outside.It was a beautiful day, and we walked along the manicured lawn. Ryder stayed quiet, leaving m

Eliza moved fast. She had barely finished getting her stitches before Allan returned with the information.Deep within an abandoned building on the north side of the city, I came face-to-face with that crowd again.Surprisingly, I wasn't afraid. I even drifted right up to each of them, studying their faces.It turned out the monsters who broke me looked just like anyone else. They all had two eyes and one mouth.Yet, I had done nothing wrong and ended up dead, while they had a list of crimes and were still breathing. How was that fair?By the time Eliza arrived, they had already been brutally beaten. Several of them had faces so swollen they could barely stutter out a word.Whenever Eliza's gaze landed on one of them, they instinctively flinched."You absolute scums of society are still breathing, while the person you hurt died three years ago. Does that sound fair to you?"Kneeling in a neat row, they exchanged bewildered glances.One of the braver ones stuttered out a questi

I had never seen Eliza like this.She froze for a split second, as if she hadn't processed the words. Her eyes widened sharply, and a faint gasp escaped her throat, as though someone had wrapped their hands around her neck.Every ounce of her previous wishful thinking and denial shattered instantly.Eliza opened her mouth, but she couldn't form a single word. She just kept repeating the same phrase over and over. "No way."But reality crashed down mercilessly.The police report left no room for doubt. I was explicitly named as the victim.As Eliza's eyes scanned the medical evaluation—vocal cord damage and secondary-degree trauma—her last shred of hope was crushed.A wave of intense grief and sheer absurdity surged within her, suffocating her. Her eyes flushed red, and a painful sting burned straight up her nose.She tried to steady herself, only to realize she no longer had the strength to control her own body.Slowly letting out a ragged breath, Eliza dug her nails into her

Eliza returned to my grave.The composure she possessed earlier that day was entirely gone. She stumbled through the cemetery, looking haggard and utterly exhausted.Her expensive lambskin heels sank repeatedly into the muddy water, but she didn't even frown.The pink letter had soaked through, bloating and wrinkling in the puddles until the ink bled into an unrecognizable blur.Eliza reached out to pick it up, but the paper only fell apart faster.She froze, softening her touch, but the brief letter had already dissolved into mush.She stood there, looking as though all the life had been drained from her. Her eyes were wide with panic, like a child who had made a mistake.I shook my head and tried to give her a gentle nudge. "Go back, Eliza. Go back to your world. I don't blame you anymore. Really."I used to hate her. I hated her for leaving me in that dark alleyway. I resented her too for pinning our parents' sins on my head.But during these three years of wandering as a g

It was a tiny USB drive with a cartoon cat charm that seemed completely out of character for Ryder.Eliza instantly recognized that it was mine. After all, it was the very first gift she had ever given me. I had never once been embarrassed by it. I used to keep it hooked to my backpack every single day.I expected her to throw it away or leave it behind, but she took it back to her office instead. She tossed it carelessly into a corner of her desk and buried herself in her work.It wasn't until the sun dipped below the horizon that she finally stopped.Staring at the grinning cartoon cat, she rubbed her temples in exhaustion.In the dead silence of the office, a faint murmur escaped her lips. She seemed to be calling someone's name. "Samuel…"Floating in the air, I froze and cautiously waved a hand. "I'm here. I'm right here."Of course, Eliza couldn't hear me. She clenched the flash drive in her fist so tightly I was afraid she might crush it.After a long hesitation, she fi
