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 226- Traitor.

The engine hummed beneath her, a comforting sound that momentarily drowned out the chaotic thoughts racing through her mind. She could feel Ray beside her, his presence a mix of warmth and uncertainty. The silence between them hung heavy, punctuated only by the rhythmic thump of the tires against the pavement.

Glancing sideways, she caught a glimpse of Ray's face, still marked by shock from the earlier events. His brow was furrowed, and his jaw clenched as he stared out into the night. "You're sure you're okay?" he finally asked, his voice laced with concern.

Esme took a deep breath, steadying herself as she navigated the winding road. "I'm fine," she assured him, though the words felt like a fragile shield against the storm brewing within her. She was far from fine; the adrenaline from the explosions still coursed through her, a wild rush that both exhilarated and terrified her.
