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 308- burn alive

Kai stood frozen, staring at the blaze with wide, empty eyes. His chest ached as if the fire were inside him, burning through his ribs and tearing at his heart. "We should have been here," he whispered, his voice barely audible. "We could have saved him…"

The flames began to die down, leaving behind charred ruins and a silence so heavy it pressed on their chests. The once vibrant room was now nothing more than ash and smoke.

Jay looked up, his tear-streaked face filled with disbelief. "He's gone," he murmured, his voice hollow. "He's really gone."

Kai knelt beside him, his hand gripping Jay's shoulder as his own tears fell silently. Together, they sat amidst the ashes of what was, their hearts shattered by what they could never undo.
