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 311- Foolish wife

It was impossible to ignore the problem anymore. With Ray's condition as it was, there was no way to hide it. They could delay the old master's visit this time, maybe even one more time after that, but what then? The truth was bound to come out eventually, and worse, they might try to meet Ray without her even knowing.

She needed a plan, something that would stop them from coming back. But it wasn't just about keeping them away. She had to ensure Ray stayed close to her, where she could keep him safe. The thought twisted and turned in her mind until an idea, strange and unsettling, began to form.

What if Ray "died"? If everyone believed he was gone, the old master and anyone else wouldn't have a reason to come looking for him. It would end their visits for good. But it wasn't just about the deception. She could use their suspicion to her advantage, turning their curiosity into a trap of her own making.
