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: EPILOGUE"Your wife is asking for you."Christian did not wait for another word, his legs automatically carried him forward before his mind could catch up, his heartbeat echoing louder than the hurried footsteps that followed the doctor through the corridor. The sterile scent of the hospital faded into the background as every thought narrowed to a single person waiting beyond those doors.The doctor stopped outside one of the delivery rooms. "You can go in now, Mr. Sargent."Christian nodded gratefully before pushing the door open, the room was quiet, soft afternoon sunlight slipped through the curtains, bathing everything in a warm glow.Aurora rested against the raised hospital bed, exhaustion evident in every breath she drew, yet her smile outshone every light in the room.When their eyes met, the tension that had gripped Christian's heart finally loosened."I made it," Aurora murmured."I always believed in you, you've always been strong.” She reached toward him. "Come here."Christian c

Chapter: WELCOMING THE FUTURE"I think our little one has decided he doesn't want to wait until breakfast is over."The smile on Aurora's face remained gentle despite the discomfort that crossed her features. One hand rested protectively over her stomach while another contraction stole her breath.Christian reached her immediately, supporting her before she could lose her balance. "Aurora, are you all right? Is everything okay?” She nodded, forcing out a soft laugh. "I will be... but I don't think breakfast is happening anymore."The dining room exploded into motion.Mary's calm voice rose above the commotion."Betty, bring the hospital bag from Aurora's room. Lily, call the hospital and let them know we're coming. Charles, get the cars ready."Charles got to his feet so quickly that his chair crashed onto the floor. "I'm on it!"Edward caught him by the arm before he sprinted toward the wrong hallway. "The garage is outside.""...I knew that.""You clearly didn't."Even in the middle of the rush, Amelia couldn't

Chapter: IT FINALLY FEELS LIKE HOME"Christian, if you don't come downstairs this instant, Charles is going to finish everything before breakfast even starts!"Mary's voice drifted through the hallway, carrying the warmth and liveliness that had become a familiar part of the Sargent Estate over the past year.Christian smiled before setting the book aside on the bedside table. Sunlight poured through the open balcony doors, dancing across the polished wooden floor while a gentle breeze carried the scent of blooming roses from the gardens below.A year.An entire year had passed since the battle that changed everything.The Dark Mountains had long returned to silence, the forbidden gate remained sealed beneath layers of ancient magic, and the Veilborn existed only as a dark chapter recorded in history books. The four great Houses had rebuilt their fractured relationships, choosing cooperation instead of suspicion, and the estate that once echoed with grief had finally become the home Lord Sargent always dreamed of creat

Chapter: I NEED YOUR HELP"Do you think he would complain if he saw all this?"Christian's voice drifted quietly through the evening air as he stood beneath the old tree overlooking the western gardens of the Sargent estate, his attention fixed upon the darkening sky where the first stars had begun appearing above the distant mountains.Beneath the tree rested a simple memorial.No grand monument or elaborate shrine.Just a polished white stone surrounded by silver Eldewyn flowers, Stormborn lilies, and a small compass placed carefully at the center.Ezra's compass, Christian had placed it there himself.The memorial gathering had ended earlier in the afternoon.All the guests had departed early, and the estate had gradually returned to silence, yet Christian remained.Still watching the sky…. Still half expecting an irritating ghost to appear beside him and criticize his posture.Mary stepped beside him quietly, her fingers slipped around his arm gently."I think he would complain that everyone was ruining hi

Chapter: NO MORE APOLOGIES"Dad.... tell me this isn't real.... Did Ezra really leave me alone?" Christian's voice broke beneath the open sky of the Dark Mountains as he stood motionless upon shattered stone and broken sanctums while the final traces of silver spiritual light drifted upward into the dawn like fragments of stars returning to the heavens.The forbidden gate was gone.The screaming fractures that had torn through reality moments earlier had vanished completely.The whispers beyond the veil had fallen silent.The mountain itself, which had spent centuries trembling beneath corruption and forbidden rituals, had finally grown quiet, all the half dead, veilborn creatures dragged back into behind the gate.The world had survived.Ezra had not.Christian remained standing exactly where Ezra had disappeared, his eyes fixed upon the empty space before him while the cold mountain wind moved through his hair and clothes as if nature itself refused to disturb his grief.His hands trembled slightly at his si

Chapter: LET ME GO!"You need to fall back right now because the gate is collapsing!" Ezra’s voice echoed throughout the shattered convergence chamber as violent spiritual fractures ripped across the underground laboratory beneath the Dark Mountains while black-red energy erupted uncontrollably from the forbidden gate suspended deep beneath the collapsing sanctum.The war had completely spiraled beyond control.Stormborn lightning crashed violently against destabilized convergence force while Eldewyn arrays struggled desperately to prevent reality itself from tearing apart around them.The deeper sectors of the laboratory were already collapsing inward.Steel corridors twisted unnaturally, spatial fractures opened through the air itself.Whispers echoed from beyond the gate.Not human.... Not understandable.And somehow infinitely worse because of it.Christian stood at the center of the collapsing battlefield with blood running from the corner of his mouth while the relic beneath his coat pulsed violen

Why did you make everyone suspect me over something I've never done?” Charlie struggled to find an excuse before finally admitting, “I was just scared, so I never said anything.” “You were selfish,” Ethan replied without any sympathy. “You let everyone suspect me and blame me while you loved to play innocent always.” Charlie clenched his hands as his frustration grew, but he forced himself to remain calm as he didn't want anyone to see that particular side of him. “I was only trying to protect myself, I never told anyone to blame you, if nobody trusts you, it's not my fault.” “And the reason everyone s

You borrowed a huge amount of money from Mr. Owen and promised him something in return which is completely not in your hands.” Charlie immediately tried to defend himself. “I was just trying to solve the family's financial problems.”Ethan gave a short, humorless laugh.“You were gambling, borrowing money, stealing things from this house, and selling them. Then you promised my grandfather's documents to Mr. Owen. Don't make it sound like you were trying to save this family when your intentions are clear that you're doing everything for your own selfish reasons.” Charlie became uncomfortable under Ethan's gaze. “I didn't know thos

I thought I could recover the money.”“And when you couldn't?”Charlie had no answer, and Ethan reached for another folder.“There is more.” He opened it and placed several receipts on the table. “These are from pawnshops and private buyers.”Hailey frowned as she looked through them. “What did he pawn?”Ethan pushed the first receipt toward her. “Your husband's antique watch.”Hailey's eyes wid

The papers proving that the mansion was free of debt were still in his hand, but his mind had clearly moved to something else.Charlie stood near the center of the room, trying to keep his composure.“What does that mean?” Jerome demanded. “What did you do?”“I didn't do anything, I don't know anything dad,” Charlie answered quickly. “I really don't understand why Ethan is trying to put this on me, I know he hates me, but this is really too much, he is just blaming me out of nowhere!" Ethan remained near the entrance, his hands resting at his sides. “You don't understand or are you pretending as if you don't understand it?” Charlie turned toward him.“No. I have been trying to help this family.

She had already tried asking him what he meant, but he had given her nothing more. His tone had remained firm, making it clear that he had no intention of discussing the matter inside the car.Sally sat quietly beside him, her hands resting together in her lap. She had been nervous ever since they left, but Ethan's silence made her even more uncertain about what was waiting for them at home.When the car finally stopped outside the Carvendish Mansion, Ethan stepped out first.Sally followed him toward the entrance.The moment they entered, Jerome was already in the main hall.

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

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?"

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."

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!

Their legal department wants to know how those photographs were obtained, who took them, and why they were published, especially with what intentions they were published.” Selene frowned as she picked up one of the photographs. The image showed Xavier talking to one of the well known black market suppliers, though the building itself was partially hidden in the background.However, no one was focusing on Xavier or the black-market supplier.
