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

The head officer's voice sliced through the tension like a blade. Katrina froze, the color draining from her face as the superior stepped forward, her presence towering despite her measured calm.

"Miss Kyra," the head officer began, her voice steady, sharp. She glanced at Kyra's badge, her gaze never wavering. "You've been working under Katrina for four years, correct?"

Kyra nodded quickly. "Y-yes, ma'am."

"Then answer this." The head officer's voice dropped, each word laced with purpose. "Did Mr. Jay ever file a report against Ms. Esme?"

Kyra hesitated, the fear in her eyes palpable. She opened her mouth to speak but faltered, her lips trembling. Finally, she shook her head, her words trembling as much as her hands. "No, ma'am. This is the first time I've ever heard about it."
