The Lost Heir Of Sargent
"No one cares whether I live or die," Christian thought as he felt himself losing consciousness, his body weak and broken after being abused to the brink of death by his own father.
When he woke, however, he found himself surrounded by a group of unfamiliar faces. These strangers, claiming to be his mother's relatives, looked at him with a mix of fury and compassion, grandfather, uncles, and aunts, people he never knew existed, stood before him.
"Who dared to hurt the heir of the Sargent family?" His uncles roared, their voices trembling with rage.
"The one who dares to lay a finger on my precious grandson will meet their end!" His grandfather declared with cold determination.
"Here, Christian," one of his aunts smiled, handing him a sparkling black card. "This is your diamond card, one of a kind. It’s all yours, you could even buy a country with it if that’s what you want."
They treated him like the most precious treasure in the world.
The once-abandoned and ridiculed son of the Adam's family turned out to be the long-lost heir of the prestigious Sargent family.
The same Adam family that had humiliated and tormented him was brought to their knees. Broken and desperate, they begged for his forgiveness.
"Christian, we’re sorry," they pleaded. "Please, have mercy on us! After all, we’re still family!"
A tale of vengeance and redemption. The Rise of Christian Sargent chronicles, a journey of an abandoned son reclaiming his identity and power as a true heir of Sargent family. As Christian unravels the mysteries of his bloodline, he forges unexpected connections, faces his enemies, and discovers the truth behind his mother’s legacy in this magical and exhilarating saga.

Chapter: WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS WOMAN?"What?" Christian asked with a clueless face, "what did you say?" Aurora pushed a faint smile, "nothing, just think about it by yourself," with that, Aurora walked away from there as if they had no conversation at all.While Christian looked utterly confused, "what's wrong with this woman? Why is she and her words like a cliffhanger?"As her words were nothing but confusing to him, he simply put them aside to concentrate on his own work.On the other side, The elevator doors slid closed behind Aurora with a soft chime, only then did she let her shoulders drop.Not dramatically, not all at once, just enough for the tension to loosen, the kind of relief that only happened when no one was watching.The mirrored walls reflected her image back at her, composed, elegant, and unshaken, a lie she had perfected early in life.Aurora stared at her own reflection for a long moment, then looked away.Christian’s office replayed in her mind, not his words, not the data, but the way he had looked

Chapter: THEN LISTEN CAREFULLY"Why is it too quiet?" Christian thought to himself, looking at the company floor which was quieter than usual in the afternoon.Not empty, but no sound came out, not even whispers among the employees as all of them are too busy with their works.Christian stood by the glass wall of his office, after the promotion, he got a new office assigned for himself, from an intern, he rose into high position and now has an office of his own.He just quietly started reviewing the latest logistics forecast on his tablet when the knock came.Not hurried, not even hesitant, very quiet and gentle."Come in," he said without even turning to look at the person who knocked on the door, after his response, the door was opened smoothly.Aurora stepped inside with a calm face, she wasn’t dressed up like usual, no dramatic colors, no jewelry meant to draw attention. Just a tailored blazer, messy hair bun, and that unmistakable confidence was as always appearing before her, because of the silence despite

Chapter: STOP YELLING LIKE A FOOL"Hey... Hey...." Ivan screamed aloud, "Is there anyone? This is illegal.... How can you confine us like this?" But no reply came despite him shouting so hard, darkness returned slowly, not all at once.First, Ivan became aware of the cold.Then especially the restraints, cold metal biting into his wrists, suppressors humming faintly against his skin, draining strength before it could even gather.Then the sound, a low, and mechanical tick… tick… tick…Somewhere nearby, not loud enough to locate, not even soft enough to ignore.Ivan's eyelids fluttered, observing concrete walls, narrow cells, no windows to know whether it is morning or still dark outside, not even a clock around to see time.Only a dim strip of white light along the ceiling, flickering at irregular intervals, just enough to keep him awake.He shifted, and froze, as a loud scream echoed down the corridor.Not close, not far either, but at the same time, long and cut short abruptly.Ivan’s breath stuttered, as he called

Chapter: I'M INFORMING YOU"My Lord, you're in a rush to leave," Lysandre commented with a teasing smile, "is it because you're missing your son already?" Adrian hummed quietly, "yeah, I miss my son, any problem with that?" Lysandre chuckled while shaking his head in mock defeat, as he can't argue with Adrian.Dawn had not yet broken when Adrian stepped back into the upper levels of the city.The base doors sealed behind him with a hydraulic hiss, burying the screams, the fear, the unfinished cruelty far beneath layers of reinforced concrete and silence.Both Ivan and Teressa are terrified, as they couldn't understand how they're going to suffer in the hands of Adrian and his men, their pleas and requests unheard as no one held pity towards them because of what they've done to Christian.Outside, the world looked deceptively normal.Traffic lights blinked lazily. A street vendor was setting up a cart. Somewhere, a radio played soft morning news as if nothing irreversible had shifted overnight.Adrian adjuste

Chapter: YOU CAN'T DO THIS!"I'm coming!"That's the only sentence left from Adrian, and he immediately stood up from the couch, before leaving the house.He opened the Christian room's door, and taken a look at Christian who is sleeping peacefully.Getting closer to Christian, he pulled the blanket up covering Christian's arms and gently caressed his hair, "sleep well, my dear!"With that he walked out of the room and closed the door very gently behind him making sure no sound came reach Christian.Finally, he left the house, and made his way straight to the base, the drive took him almost an hour to reach that place.By the time he reached, the base lay buried beneath layers of reinforced concrete and silence.It's a desolate place, with no signboards or markings, not just that, it's a place, where there'll be no signs of mercy or pity either.Only steel doors, armed guards, and corridors that swallowed sound whole.Adrian walked in alone.His steps echoed, measured, controlled, and unhurried.

Chapter: FOR TRYING "For Chris!" Adrian hesitated, and finally said, Mrs. Nevermore's laughter stopped instantly and was replaced by warm amusement. "Oh...." That single syllable held everything, understanding, curiosity, and something dangerously close to fondness."You want to make him dumpling soup by yourself," she said, not asking."Yes." "Today?" "Yes." Another pause.Then, warmly Mrs. Nevermore has said, "don't worry, I know how to make it, I’ll send you the recipe, step by step, so that you can make it easily, and by the way Rian?" "Yes, Mom?" "Don’t rush it, my dear," she said gently. "Dumplings taste better when made patiently, so you have to be very patient while making this recipe, only then it tastes more delicious." Adrian closed his eyes briefly. "I understand!" After the call ended, Adrian stared at his phone for a second longer than necessary.Then he rolled up his sleeve

He carefully created a fake financial report detailing nonexistent transactions, ensuring it looked as authentic as possible.Once the file was complete, he placed it in a safe place where Nancy usually hides the things, so that they'll not suspect it as fake.As the file was hidden safely, he placed four tiny cameras to cover angles of the room, so that he can capture every movement in the office."Now this is perfect to trap a rat," Bryan smirked, and left the room immediately, he asked Nancy also not to go into the room for a whole day and lie about having work outside.He also went to college to complete his tasks there, after finishing all, by the end of the day, Bryan returned to the office and checked the original CCTV footage of Nancy's office, as he suspected the cameras didn't work.To make it more dramatic Bryan called for a few security staff wh

"Jake, aren't you supposed to be in your room? What are you doing here?" Mia sighed, making Jake to shout at her, "Why are you believing him instead of me? You should believe in me, not him."

Chapter: IT'S ALREADY TOO LATE! "Grandma?" Bryan said with a small smile getting up from the chair, "I’m just going through these, nothing important, why are you here anyway grandma? Do you want anything?" "No dear," Alicia tilted her head slightly, her eyes twinkling with affection, as she looked at Bryan who resembles her late husband, "You’re just like your grandfather, always diving into work. Too much, if you ask me, unlike your father, who is so lazy to work." Bryan chuckled softly, "Working keeps me focused grandma! I don't like being lazy." "I can understand," she walked over close to him and looked around only to the find many records on the table, "You must've been so busy while looking into these, aren't you?"

Chapter: SOMETHING CONSPIRACY"Why is this mystery never ending?" Bryan sat in his study, surrounded by stacks of old documents and family records. Unaware of what Josephine is plotting behind his back, he is so busy in getting the truth that was buried in the past. The faint glow of the desk lamp made him feel uneasy to stare at the papers, however he is so busy and involved in flipping the pages. He had been checking through the Winterwood archives for hours, determined to find any trace of evidence to support his suspicions regarding the mysteries. As he reached the bottom of an old wooden chest, a red envelope caught his attention. The paper looked too old, the edges were torn, and the handwriting on the front unmistakably belonged to his late grandfather, Edward Winterwood, "grandfather? This handwriting is similiar to grandfather's, I still remember the handwriting of grandfather from my previous life while helping my father, if so why is grandfather's handwritten paper is here?" With a curiosity, he

Chapter: BRING AN END TO EVERYTHING "Sure, I can," Stacy said and took the file, as she checked the details, apart from very minimalistic nothing else found, "Bryan, if you don't mind, can I ask who is this man? If you don't want to say it's okay." Bryan took a deep breath and said the conversation he had before with officer Hobbes."What the!" Stacy was beyond surprised, "how can this be?" Bryan replied, "I don't know either, but the maid is already dead too, I don't believe our mom is doing all the things alone, I'm sure someone must be helping her," Stacy looked curious, "so, did you figure out anything more about these things?" Bryan sighed, leaning back to the bedframe, "Not yet, but I have a feeling this man from mom's past holds the key to everything. If I can figure out who he is, I might be able to predict her next move, until then I'm not sure of anything because things are different from my previous life at this moment, so I can't take a blind step believing in intuition." Stacy frowned in deep thought. "

Chapter: CAN YOU HELP ME FIND A PERSON?"These are the files you're supposed to look at and take care of," Josephine sat at her desk in the office, glaring daggers as everyone who was looking down on her, whereas Nancy, had been firm but fair in her leadership. To Josephine, it felt like a constant reminder of her fall from grace. Once the madam of the Winterwood household, but she was now reduced to a subordinate, a reality she bitterly hatred.Just then, her phone buzzed on the desk. It was a text from Bryan, "I think you love your new life, Mrs. Winterwood." Josephine slammed her phone down, with an angry look, "The audacity of that bastard to treat me this way! I don't know what got into him out of a sudden, all these years, I've tamed him perfectly, but he became a fox out of a sudden pulling strings to annoy me." When Nancy walked into the room, holding another set of reports, Josephine couldn’t contain her anger."Just because your father made you a CEO, do you think you're superior to me?" she hissed, with a ton
