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] Chapter 139 - Like a fool.

After Jay left, Esme felt an unsettling void settle in the air around her. She stared at the closed door, the echo of his departure ringing in her ears.

For a moment, she couldn't find the words to articulate the turmoil within her. The truth loomed large: she had always intended to leave this place. How had she allowed herself to get trapped in this web of obligation and expectation? The weight of the agreement felt like an iron shackle around her heart, constraining her spirit.

She leaned against the cool wall, closing her eyes to block out the surroundings. The Aron Group—what a farce it had become.

What did it mean to her? What had once sparked her ambition now felt more like a burden than a privilege.
