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 246- Tantrum throwing

Esme stared at Ray, utterly baffled, trying to comprehend the logic in his words. Wait, what? She replayed the whole conversation in her head, hoping it would start making sense. With a sigh, she looked up at Ray, who was wiping away a stray tear, still looking as though his world had crumbled over this... cheese nut debacle.

"So, what exactly were you trying to say?" Esme asked again, hoping for some clarity.

Ray took a deep, shaky breath, his voice quivering with a mix of frustration and despair. "I said cheese nuts... I wanted them sweet but not just sweet!" He emphasized the last word, his voice a little louder this time.

Esme blinked, stunned. "So, let me get this straight. You're upset—like, actually crying—because your cheese nuts turned out sweet?" She tilted her head, trying to gauge if there was some hidden tragedy she was missing.
