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 213- The truth behind the curtain

Ray's heart stopped, his breath catching in his throat. He had suspected it for so long, had felt it in his bones, but to hear her say it out loud—like a knife twisting in an already bleeding wound—was almost unbearable. His face contorted with a mix of disbelief and horror, but he couldn't stop the small, bitter smile that tugged at his lips. He had always known, hadn't he? Deep down, he had always suspected this monster was behind it all.

His aunt's face twisted into a grotesque smile. "Oh, Ray, don't look so shocked," she sneered, her eyes gleaming with wicked amusement. "Do you want to know how I killed her? Your precious mother? The same way I just killed your wife."

Ray's body trembled as her words sank in. The world around him seemed to close in, suffocating him in grief, rage, and helplessness. Esme. His mother. It was all too much. His fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, but he didn't move. He couldn't move.
