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: IT IS CONFIRMED"Mr. Adrian… Are you awake?"Christian’s voice was low but clear as it traveled through the quiet hallway, and although the apartment was wrapped in the deep silence of midnight, the faint tension beneath his words was enough to pull Adrian out of the light sleep he had been attempting for the past hour.From inside his room, Adrian immediately opened his eyes and sat up slightly, sensing something unusual in Christian’s tone that made him rise from the bed without hesitation."What is it, Chris?" Adrian asked while stepping into the hallway.Christian stood near the living room entrance, his posture was alert in a way that did not belong to someone who had been trying to sleep only moments earlier."I think I heard something strange," Christian replied quietly.Adrian frowned slightly, and the apartment was still.The distant city noise barely reached them through the closed windows, and the steady hum of the refrigerator in the kitchen was the only sound filling the silence."You mi

Chapter: YOU DIDN'T EVEN READ IT"You went somewhere, didn’t you?"Christian’s voice came from the living room the moment Adrian stepped inside the apartment, and although the words sounded casual, the quiet stillness surrounding them made it clear that the young man had been sitting there for quite some time waiting for the door to open.Adrian closed the door behind him slowly before turning toward the sofa where Christian sat, and the sight immediately made his chest tighten slightly because the television in front of him was playing silently while Christian stared out of the window rather than watching it."I had a small matter to take care of," Adrian replied calmly as he removed his coat and placed it neatly on the chair near the entrance. "I thought you were taking a nap, so I decided to go out and handle a few things which I'm supposed to do, but didn't expect you to be waking up before I could even return."Christian hummed faintly as if the explanation was enough for him, and he did not press further even t

Chapter: THAT MUCH WAS OBVIOUS"You sounded urgent on the phone," Aurora said as she placed her cup of coffee on the table and looked across at the man sitting opposite her. "That’s unusual for someone like you, Mr. Adrian.... And what made you call me all of a sudden to a place like this?"She casually shrugged her shoulders, "I don't think you called me here just for a cup of coffee or to enjoy the vibes in this coffee, am I right?" The café was quiet in the late afternoon, filled with the low hum of conversations and the distant sound of cups touching saucers, but the small table where Adrian and Aurora sat carried a tension that made the surrounding calm feel strangely distant.Adrian did not touch the drink in front of him.His hands rested calmly on the table, yet the stillness in his posture carried something heavier than anger, something closer to restrained fury.He made sure to choose this time since Christian is taking a nap at home, he decided to finish off everything and return home as soon as possibl

Chapter: IS THE AWAKENING PROGRESSING?"I thought you said you were going to sleep."Adrian’s voice came from the doorway, quiet but clear enough to break the long silence that had settled inside the apartment.Christian, who had been lying on the bed staring at the ceiling for what felt like hours, slowly turned his head toward the door, his eyes dull with exhaustion even though he had not slept at all."I tried," he replied softly, his voice calm in a way that felt strangely distant. "But my mind doesn’t seem interested in resting tonight."For whole day Adrian tried his best to keep company to Christian and didn't leave him alone, ordered the food from Christian's favourite restaurants, though he ate a little, still, Adrian was satisfied that at least, Christian isn't starving himself.In the night, Adrian asked Christian to spend some time with him but Christian insisted on sleeping early and ended up not sleeping.Adrian stepped inside the room without making unnecessary noise, closing the door behind him gently befor

Chapter: YOU AGREED TOO EASILY"Chris, you need to wake up now."Adrian’s voice was calm and steady as he spoke, though his eyes carefully observed the young man lying on the bed before him, because the night before had left a heavy impression in his mind and he had not been able to sleep properly after seeing Christian in such a shattered state.Despite wanting to talk a lot, at least wanted to ask Christian to change up, but Adrian didn't dare to do any of those as he is afraid of hurting Christian unknowingly by reminding everything that happened.After covering Christian with a blanket, Adrian just stayed calmly in the same room till the morning.How heart ached to look at his precious son in such a state, when he has been doing everything to keep his son happy, still, unexpected situations breaking Christian, and that's troubling Adrian a lot.Morning light slipped quietly through the curtains and spread across the room, illuminating the figure lying beneath the blanket Adrian had placed over him during the ni

Chapter: IT FEELS THAT WAY"My Lord," Lysandre said gently, "that's something you need to talk with him, he opens up his heart only to you." Adrian hummed as he knew Lysandre isn't wrong, Christian doesn't really share anything with outsiders, apart from him.With that, Lysandre left from there and Adrian decided to talk with Christian, in next few minutes he stood in front of Christian's room."Chris, open the door for me." Adrian’s voice carried through the wooden door with a controlled calmness that barely concealed the unease sitting heavily inside his chest.Because even though Lysandre had only told him a few scattered details about finding Christian standing alone in the rain outside a hotel, the state in which he had seen him just moments ago had been enough to make Adrian realize that something terrible had happened.Inside the room, Christian sat on the floor beside the bed without moving.His clothes were still soaked from the rain, h

Charlie shook his head with a sad look in his eyes, as if he can't hear bad things about Ethan, "don't say that sister, it's not completely intentional from him, he is just hurt, and behaving like that!""You don't have to be kind towards an idiot like him Charlie, he doesn't deserve it," Hailey gently held Charlie's hand."I can't give up on my brother mom, no matter what, he is my older brother, it's just, the broken engagement must have affected him more deeply than we realized," Charlie continued quietly. "I know he is just upset that he was sent to prison in my place, now that his engagement was also broken, he must be clearly angry, that's why he opted for the wrong direction to get back at us! I know it's all my fault, if not because of me...." Sally sighed dramatically."Come on Charlie, there's no way it is your fault," she m

Chapter: THE ONLY HEIR"What do you mean by that?" Jerome asked with a frown, clearly confused by Charlie’s earlier warning.The car moved steadily through the quiet night streets, the lights of the city sliding across the dark windows as the tension inside the vehicle lingered in silence.Charlie turned his head slowly toward Jerome. His expression remained calm and thoughtful in a way that immediately made the older man pay attention."Dad," Charlie said gently, "right now, brother is clearly angry with our family." Jerome’s brows knit together slightly.Charlie continued in the same careful tone, speaking as if he were simply voicing a concern that had been weighing on him."After everything that happened tonight, do you really think he would reconcile with us that easily and help our family the moment we ask?" he asked quietly, planting a seed of doubt in Jerome’s mind. Jerome did not answer as the question forced him into thought.Charlie lowered his gaze slightly before continuing, his voice soft wi

Chapter: ESCORTED OUT IN SILENCE"I believe the celebration has already lasted long enough for people who are no longer welcome here."Scarlett’s voice was not loud when she spoke those words, yet the quiet authority behind them spread across the hall more effectively than any raised command ever could. Conversations that had already softened after the confrontation fell completely silent as dozens of eyes fixed toward her, because everyone present understood that the tone she had just used was not a suggestion.Scarlett did not even look toward the Carvendish family when she finished speaking. She merely lifted her gaze slightly toward the guards stationed near the walls, and the reaction was immediate enough to make several guests shift uneasily where they stood.The guards moved.They did not ask questions, they did not hesitate, and they certainly did not look toward anyone else in the room for confirmation, because Scarlett Caspian had not given them an order that required clarification.They had simply unders

"For your information, the engagement you are referring to between you and Ethan ended some time ago. The annulment papers were sent to the Caspian residence, and your father has already signed them."Jenny did not know when any of this had happened, because no one had informed her.Scarlett said calmly, "Right now your fiancé is Charlie Carvendish, not Ethan, and the man you should concern

Chapter: THE BEGINNING OF A NEW GAME"You're right, Aunt," Jenny let out a short laugh that sounded more brittle than amused.Her gaze moved toward Ethan. "He was my ex-fiancé." A brief pause followed."And he was also the man who went to prison because of a criminal case."Several guests shifted uneasily, but Ethan remained completely still, unbothered by what others thought of him, having long since grown accustomed to those looks and whispers.Jenny’s smile sharpened."Tell me, Ethan," she added softly, "does your new fiancée know what kind of man she is about to marry?" Scarlett did not react immediately.Instead she looked at Jenny with the same calm expression she had maintained throughout the confrontation."Yes," she said simply, and the quiet answer spread through the hall faster than any raised voice could have.Her gaze shifted briefly toward Ethan before returning to her niece.

Scarlett raised an eyebrow and tilted her head slightly as if she were genuinely curious, though the sharpness in her eyes betrayed her intention."I must admit," Jenny continued smoothly, "I did not expect you to announce an engagement tonight… especially not with someone who was promised to me." The words hung in the air for a moment before she continued, her gaze flicking briefly toward Ethan."Ethan belongs to me," she said with quiet certainty. "He has always belonged to me, and whatever this arrangement is, he clearly had no choice in it."The silence that followed was immediate.Scarlett looked at Jenny without responding right away.Her expression remained calm as she studied the niece standing in front of

Chapter: WE ARE ALL SET TO LEAVE THIS COUNTRY "How should I begin it?" Bryan thought to himself as the next morning, he arrived at the office early to set the plan in motion. 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

Bryan felt inwardly, but not wasting anytime, he left the room, and as he was on his way to leave the floor, he was caught by Jake.Without letting him to notice, Bryan hid the piece in his pocket, Jake frowned, "what are you doing here?" "Why should I answer to you?" Bryan crossed his arms, clenching his fist, Jake sighed, "Bryan, don't push your luck too much." Just then Mia who heard the commotion came there, "What's happening here?""Sister," Jake rushed to Mia, but Mia, ignoring Jake went to Bryan, "What happened?"Bryan shrugged his shoulders, "nothing, I was casually walking here, he came and started this commotion." "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."

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?" Bryan scratched his head with a forced smile, "Well, you can say that grandma!" "My dear, you shouldn't push yourself more than necessary," Alicia's expression turned serious for a moment.

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."

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
