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.

As the syringe plunged the green liquid into Esme's veins, her body went limp, drifting into a deep, unnatural sleep. Ryan, with his jaw clenched, scooped her up and gently laid her onto the bed. Jay rushed to cover her, pulling the blanket over her as if that simple act could shield her from the torment that clung to her unconscious state.

The room was thick with silence, except for the shallow rise and fall of Esme's chest. Ray, standing a few feet away, broke the tension with a sharp, serious tone. "What's going on with her?" His eyes were fixed on Esme, but the question was aimed at Ryan, waiting for an answer that might ease the unease gnawing at him.

Ryan's gaze never left Esme as he responded, his voice calm but carrying a weight that didn't match his expression. "It's the poison. It's still in her."
