Complex family relationships delve into the tangled webs of kinship that drive the most compelling webnovels. In these stories, the domestic sphere is a battlefield where protagonists navigate **scheming stepmothers**, estranged biological parents, and cutthroat siblings vying for a grand inheritance. Whether it is a modern-day corporate dynasty or a high-stakes imperial court, these narratives explore the thin line between loyalty and betrayal. Readers are drawn to the high-stakes emotional drama and the satisfying payoff of a mistreated lead reclaiming their place in the lineage. Common tropes include the **hidden billionaire heir**, secret identities, and the dramatic 'face-slapping' of arrogant relatives who underestimated the main character. If you crave stories where blood ties come with strings attached and **familial loyalty** must be earned rather than given, this category offers the ultimate psychological thrill.
