Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Mio Walsh gave a brief explanation about her family matters. Of course, she left out key details about the origins of the R family and other important secrets. She only mentioned that Victoria was now the head of the family, holding all the power.

During her absence, Mio had been groomed as the heir to the family. But when Victoria returned, her ambitions were crushed-she could only settle for being a vice president, forever under Victoria's control.

"So, if Aurora were to return, wouldn't that make her the head of the family?" Ivy's voice betrayed her jealousy. To her, Aurora already had everything handed to her on a silver platter.

But now? Aurora might also get this incredible stroke of luck. Victoria was the head of the R family. Aurora had Julian. She had the Montgomery family. Was all of that still not enough?

"That's true," Mio replied. "But when Victoria returned back then, she didn't mention having a daughter. She deliberately kept it a secret.

It wasn't until recently, when I saw Aurora's face, that I noticed how much she resembled our family head. That's when I started to suspect the truth. For now, the family still doesn't know about her existence.

Life is unpredictable. Back then, I had no interest in becoming the head of the family. It was the elders who pushed me into that position, insisting one day I'd take over.

They told me being the head came with strict requirements, and I worked tirelessly to meet them. But when Victoria returned, I lost everything.

If I had known it would end this way, I wouldn't have hoped for anything in the first place. The higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment."

These were Mio Walsh's true feelings. If those elders hadn't said anything to him back then, he would have understood his place from the start and wouldn't have dared to dream beyond his reach.

Despite all his efforts, Victoria's return erased any chance he had to compete.

Feeling Mio's desolation, Ivy sympathized. "Mio, don't be sad. I understand how you feel.

I thought I could join the family business seamlessly and secure shares. But when Aurora returned, all of that vanished.

No shares, no home, no family-I lost everything. It seems fate has tied us together. We're both people who share the same misfortune."

"Yes, life is truly unpredictable. The family head's health is deteriorating day by day, and she doesn't have much time left.
