The Heiress's Comeback

Being adored by one's parents and hoping to achieve something that could bring them happiness, a child sacrificed their carefree personality and chose the path of books and knowledge at an early age. Without looking back to see how those they thought were their parents were, in truth, only pushing them from behind. Esme, a prodigy from an early age, excelled in everything, unlike her sister, who, though adored by both parents, always lagged behind. Finally, after saving the company from debts and restoring it to its former glory, Esme looked back at her parents in hope of recognition but... "You are not even my daughter, you pathetic fool." "Hehe, Sister, how about I take your fiancé?" "Um, you see, Esme, I love your sister." "Tch, insect, how dare you reject checks whenever I, your mother, asked for money!" Those words lingered in Esme's mind before she lost consciousness and woke up inside a prison. "What are you doing here, Aron?" Esme looked at a handsome young man seated in a wheelchair, gazing at her with amusement. He was her sole business competitor, and now, he was visiting her in prison. "Nothing, just came here for a proposal, Miss Esme..." Let's see what awaits the journey of an heiress who was wrongly accused of being fake, betrayed by her fiancé, and had to seek support from her business rivals.

[ Volume 1] Chaper 196-Horror past.

Her mother's laugh, the way her father's watch gleamed in the sunlight. And then the devastating contrast of their lifeless bodies, the cold, impersonal voices of the police officers who had shown up at her door. The horror on their faces, the words they spoke as they delivered the news that had torn her life apart.

Esme's hands tightened around the sink, knuckles white from the pressure. Tears spilled down her cheeks, hot and fast, before she could stop them. She couldn't block it out. The memories played in her mind like a film on a loop, vivid and haunting. Over and over again, she watched as her world crumbled, the people she loved most ripped away from her.
