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.

The door opened slowly, revealing the second aunt of the Arun brothers. Her entrance was graceful yet held an unspoken tension. Dressed in an elegant, traditional gown, her eyes held a sharpness despite her age. She stepped forward, her presence both familiar and commanding.

"You called for me, daughter-in-law?" the aunt asked with a soft, almost deceptive gentleness in her voice.

Esme placed her pen down carefully, her gaze finally meeting the older woman's. But her smile, though polite, did not reach her eyes. She gestured to the chair opposite her, indicating for the aunt to sit.

"Yes, Aunt. I did call for you." Esme paused, her tone still sweet but with an underlying edge. "Can you tell me why and how you managed to get the authorities to suspend my personal secretary and appoint someone new without my permission?"
