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.

In the corridor, she crossed paths with Kai, who had been turning away but paused at the sight of her. His brow furrowed, a mix of curiosity and concern etched across his features. He watched as Helga exited, noting the way Esme had so easily dismissed her, almost as if she were a mere footnote in a grander scheme.

"What just happened in there?" Kai asked, his voice low and probing. He leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, clearly intrigued by the shift in Helga's demeanor as she was going away without even notucing him.

Jay, who had been standing quietly in the corner, watched Esme with a growing sense of caution. His initial shock at her calm demeanor quickly turned to alarm when he noticed the blood dripping steadily from her hand. The towel she was using was soaked through with red, a sight that made his stomach twist.
