K1ERA

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 Heiress's Comeback

His mind raced, searching for answers. Could this man have been sent by Esme? Or perhaps Ray or his brothers? But that didn't make sense. If they knew the full extent of his schemes, they would have handed him over to the police already, not watched this charade unfold.

And yet, in his fury and confusion, he overlooked one crucial detail. He didn't truly know Esme. Not her capabilities. Not her limits.

Hearing Aaron's words, the old man's face turned pale for a fleeting moment before his expression hardened, his pride and determination quickly taking over. He had faced countless challenges in his life, and he had always emerged victorious. Esme was no different. Yes, she had shaken his empire. Yes, she had killed his daughter and chipped away at his power. But the old man was no stranger to war—he thrived on it.
