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 320- Madman

The old man's head snapped toward her, his brows furrowed. "What?"

She pointed at the monitor. "The camera in the east passage. It just flickered."

Rei quickly focused on the feed, zooming in on the dimly lit corridor. The camera flickered again, and this time, a faint shadow moved at the edge of the frame. It was brief—no more than a split second—but it was enough to make her stomach drop.

"There's someone there," she said, her voice rising.

The old man leaned forward, his eyes narrowing. "Zoom in," he ordered, his tone sharp.

Rei obeyed, adjusting the feed until the shadowy corner filled the screen. Her heart pounded as the flicker stopped, leaving the passage bathed in a heavy, unnatural stillness. She scanned the area frantically, but the figure was gone.
