The Lost Heir Of Sargent WAS THIS ALL REAL?
The soft yet warm rays of morning sunlight passed through the massive windows of a grand bedroom.Christian stirred in the expensive silks, his eyes fluttering open to take a look around his surroundings.The high, and extraordinary ceiling with its delicate designs, the glamorous chandelier, and the plush furniture all screamed richness in every corner of the room.It was highly different from the small, dimly lit storeroom he had been confined to in the Adams household.For a moment, he thought he was dreaming, the suffocating memories of his past whispered doubts in his mind, "Was this all real?" That's when a soft knock on the door broke through his thoughts, slightly getting up in the bed, Christian said, "come in." The door opened, revealing an elegantly dressed man with a kind face."Good morning, young master," the man greeted with a slight bow. "I’m James, your personal butler hired by Lord Sargent."Christian smiled at him, "I see, nice to meet you, I'll be under your care
The Lost Heir Of Sargent I'M DISAPPOINTED IN YOU!
"Aunt," Christian saw Liliana holding his amulet, immediately taking it from her hands, Christian said with a smile, "Yes, I'm thinking about this only." Liliana ruffled his hair, "I kept it safe for you, since you're unconscious at that time, and later totally forgot about this, finally giving it back to you now," Christian hugged her happily, "thank you aunt, thank you so much for keeping this safe." "Silly boy, what's there to thank me for this?" Liliana chuckled, though she felt emotional looking at Christian finally opening up himself to everyone. Taking the amulet, Christian went back to his room, being seated on the couch within his room under the gentle flow of moonlight passing through the windows, he placed the amulet on a small table in front of him. The amulet glowing more brighter under the moonlight, "This isn't the glow I witnessed that day, it was more brighter, more magical, it almost felt unreal when broken pieces joined together, is it real or my imaginati
The Lost Heir Of Sargent LET'S SEE WHO'LL END UP IN THE STREETS!
••NO POV••"Years of friendship, Mia," Christian spoke in a trembling voice with a mix of disbelief and sadness inwardly, "And is this what you understood about me? After everything, is this what you think of me?" "Maybe," he said slowly, a voice mirroring his sorrow, "maybe I expected too much from you, maybe I believed in a version of you that doesn’t exist anymore." His eyes glancing at the screen of the mobile, "Or maybe you forgot about our friendship long ago, it's time to say goodbye to everything!"But what he still couldn't understand was her words from an earlier conversation, just then he opened his laptop and surfed through the internet hoping he would find something regarding what Mia has talked about.He finally found a video, on the screen, Morris adjusted his tie and leaned into the microphone, with a calm voice yet full of accusations."Christian Adam is not related to Adam's family anymore, he is ungrateful, jealous, and manipulative, he stole money from the house
The Lost Heir Of Sargent SUGAR MOMMY
"Mia Verlon?" Betty spelled the name while her eyes scanned the papers in her hands, "The youngest daughter of the Verlon family." Her assistant nodded respectfully. "Yes, madam, she’s the young master Christian's childhood friend, the two of them were practically inseparable growing up." Betty's expression seemed to be unreadable while Liliana let out a disapproving sigh. "Then how could she speak to my nephew in such a manner? Is this a way to treat her friend?" Betty has already informed Liliana about the message she has seen in Christian's mobile last night, from then Liliana has been extremely furious.The assistant hesitated, choosing his words carefully not to anger Betty or Liliana, "I can’t say for certain, madam, but I’ve heard things haven’t been the same between the young master and Miss Verlon these past few years. They’re still close, but not as they once were, there are few rumors about a childhood engagement alliance in between two families back then, but that doe
The Lost Heir Of Sargent WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT PLAN OF YOURS?
"Sugar mommy?" Christian sighed at Ivan's words, while unbothered Ivan smirked and pointed toward Liliana."Isn’t she your sugar mommy? If not, then what is she? If she isn't your sugar mommy, why are you getting pampered by her?" Teresa stepped forward with disdainful expression as she looked up and down at Christian, "Looking all rich, even so what kind of life is this? Come on, Chris, though you're kicked out of the family records, still if you get on your knees and beg for our forgiveness, we might consider letting you back, though only as a servant, still it's a respectful life than this kind of life." Teressa said loud enough making people around her to hear, and everyone's attention fell on Christian and Liliana.Ivan joined his mother with a sneer. "Yeah, Chris, beg for our forgiveness, it’s better than selling yourself to women like her, who knows what kind of diseases an old woman like that might be carrying?" Before Ivan could finish, Christian slapped him hard across th
The Lost Heir Of Sargent WHAT EXACTLY DID YOU BOTH DO TO PROVOKE THEM?
"Don't be too full of yourself Chris," Ivan shouted at Christian, "You think you’re someone who can look down on us now, don’t you? Just because you’ve found some rich old woman to back you up...."Before he could finish, Christian’s slap echoed through the mall once more. Ivan stumbled back, holding his cheek which stings. "I advise you to shut your mouth," Christian said coldly. "I don't tolerate any kind of disrespect towards her, if there's any old woman here it's your mother, not someone elegant and beautiful like my aunt." "Chrissy baby, you praise me too much," Liliana smiled at the way Christian called her beautiful, but Christian insisted, "It's true aunt, you're indeed beautiful, I don't like the way he is calling you old!" Liliana chuckled softly. "I told you, Chrissy, people like them don’t deserve your energy, they’re not worth our time, we are here to spend some quality of time together, let's not ruin our moods." She immediately turned her gaze to Teresa, who was s
The Lost Heir Of Sargent I THINK ITS TIME FOR THE GRAND REVELATION!
"Young Master, here is your tea," the maid gave the cup to Christian politely, he took the cup with a kind smile, "Thank you!"Christian sat in the living room, scrolling through his mobile, Christian found the video of Ivan and Teressa on their knees asking forgiveness, at the sametime people calling her a mistress and Ivan as a bastard child, many people are lashing out at them.Watching it Christian looked satisfied, "They deserve it!" He thought to himself while sipping on freshly brewed tea. The warmth of the room, almost occupied with the chilly tension still lingering from earlier at the mall. His aunt Liliana sat beside him, her expression glowing with satisfaction, while the rest of the family gathered around, their faces a mix of curiosity and concern as they're not sure what Christian is thinking currently."Chris," Charles began, finally breaking the silence, "I heard what happened at the shopping mall today, it seems they went out of line this time." Christian set his
The Lost Heir Of Sargent DID YOU SEE THAT?
"Young Master, are you prepared?" James respectfully asked Christian who is standing infront of the mirror being prepared to go to college after so many days.Christian let out a faint smile, "Yes!" "Let's go, young master," James said guiding Christian downstairs, though it's a common uniform of his college, it is unique in its style, most expensive fabric, every button of his shirt is pure 20 carats diamonds, most costly watch, everything on his body screaming richness.As he descended the stairs, his aunts, uncles and grandparents looked so happy and admiring him."You look so good, my boy," Amelia smiled caressing Christian's face."My grandson looks majestic in this uniform," Lord Sargent tapped on Christian's shoulder with a proud face.Charles immediately took out his mobile just to capture the photos of Christian, "Wonderful! I'll make these as a collection!""Send them to me," Edward requested Charles, while Betty and Liliana also joined, "Yes...yes, send to us also." Charl

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE RISK FOR HER?
"Mr. Charles, Master wants to meet you," a guard announced, bowing respectfully at the doorway, "He is waiting for you in his study." Charles turned to Christian with a conflicted glance, the guard informed, "Master wants only you to meet him, Mr. Charles, he said young master Christian can wait in madam Rosaline's room till you come back for him." "Ummm... But, my nephew," Charles hesitated, and Christian who knew this is the opportunity for him to be alone with Rosaline has said, "It's okay uncle, I can wait here till you come back, so, don't worry about me and go to meet Mr. Valemire." Charles nodded and caressed Christian's hair, "I think it's better for you to wait inside the room itself, I’ll be back as soon as possible, stay here only till I come back." Christian nodded quietly like an obedient child.Charles then looked at the maid standing nearby. "He’s a bit shy around strangers, he'll be staying in Rosaline’s room till I return, please look after him." The maid blinked
SHE IS INSIDE
"Ezra, can you pull that curtain away?" Christian groaned sleepily not wanting his sleep to be disturbed, while Ezra sighed, "It's already morning Chris, day by day you're becoming lazy." With a huff, Christian got up and sat, "Ms. Thalia isn't here, at least at times like this, am I not supposed to be happy and enjoying?" "You can," Ezra said with a smile, "but you need to wake up too from the sleep, you can't be sleeping whole day..." Christian shook his head, "Last night, I've been thinking Ezra." "Thinking? What?" Ezra looked confused.Christian said, "Today, let's go and meet Ms. Rosaline." "Huh? Are you sure?" Christian nodded, "yes, whole night I've been thinking about that only, finally I took a decision, if we wanted to do something, why we should delay it? Let's go there..." "Do you think you're their son-in-law?" Ezra rolled his eyes, "It's not as easy as you think to go there whenever you wants and to leave when you wanted to, you need permission for both going and
ISN'T IT FAMILIAR TO YOU?
"I didn't mean that," Liliana shook her head. "They've tried everything, every physician, alchemist, enchanter, and healer, worth their name, but they couldn't even find out what's wrong with her."Christian was surprised to hear that, and immediately, he remembered about his uncle, "Wait... What about uncle Charles? He is named as a miracle doctor who can save anyone, even a dying person can be saved by uncle, why didn't he try to help her? Do we have any issues with them?" "No, Chris," Liliana gently placed her hand on Christian's hand, "Both of our families are so close to each other for decades, in fact Rosaline is a very good person, she even saved my life once, out of that gratitude, I took Charles to their home hoping he can help her, even Charles attempted to heal her for me." Christian straightened with an anxious face. "And?" "He failed." Her voice was quiet now, threaded with frustration. Christian looked surprised after hearing to Liliana, as far as he heard everyone p
WHERE IS SHE NOW?
"Where are you going at this hour?" Ezra asked, looking at Christian who is walking out, Christian said calmly, "Ummm... I'm going to the library...." Ezra scratched his head with a clueless face, "Library? At this hour? Are you crazy?" "No, I'm not," Christian said turning on the torch in his mobile, "I couldn't sleep, so I can't just lie down and do nothing, so I want to take a walk, rather than going here and there, I just want to the manor library to find books related to Valemire family." Ezra couldn't say no to Christian, so silently followed behind.Christian slowly made his way towards the manor library without making a sound, as he doesn't want to disturb anyone late in that night."Did you ever went to that library?" Ezra asked, Christian shook his head, "No, I just got to know directions to that library through James, but this is the first time, I'm going there...." Ezra hummed, "So, you knew nothing about this library?" "No, do you know anything?" Christian asked with
YOU THINK SOMEONE DID?
"Chris," Amelia gently tapped on Christian's hand, "Are you okay? Why did you keep your face like that? Still thinking about your grandfather's words?" Christian mumbled out of hesitation, "I'm scared... I'm worried too, that I might not be able to keep up with the expectations you all have on me, what if I failed? What if I...." "You're thinking too much, Chrissy," Liliana laughed, as she couldn't handle the serious look on Christian's face, "Do you even know what Charles had done when Ed has asked him to handle a meeting with foreign delegates?" Christian looked curious to know, Liliana shared the rest of the story, "Ed gave all the details but this man messed up, he read out something else rather than the he is supposed to discuss, he spoke about financial report as if they're in the company as an auditor, what should we do with this guy?" Everyone burst into laughter including Christian, Betty said, "Even Ed was nervous, because he is supposed to work under Lord Sargent, the g
THAT'S VERY DIPLOMATIC!
"So, what are you planning to do now?" Ezra asked, tilting his head in genuine curiosity as Christian stood by the window, eyes fixed on the pale morning sky.Christian rolled his eyes so hard he nearly saw his brain. "Salsa dance, wanna join? Maybe I think, you're already an expert..." Ezra snorted, laughter bubbling up. "What a sarcastic guy! Just like his mother."Christian spun around, with a sarcastic tone, "My mom would be proud of me. You know, she loved a good twirl while we played around, and guess what, when I saw her fight, she twirled in the same way sealing that gate, and dodging shadow beasts, my mom is good at everything." Ezra flopped onto a nearby armchair, one of the fluffiest in the room, and folded his arms. "You’re practically a fountain of levity this morning." Christian raised an eyebrow. "Levity? I was thinking more along the lines of a snark tornado, but yes, levity works." He paced, calmly looking around, "Maybe I could start by writing a strongly worded
IS THAT WHY YOU DISAPPEAR SOMETIMES?
"Why is even normal sleep became hard for me to afford?" Christian hadn’t slept at all. "Arghhh, why are these nightmares haunting me, why couldn't I even get some proper sleep?" After the dream, or illusion, or whatever it was, he’d stayed curled beneath the blankets, eyes wide open, listening to the tick of the old wall clock and the distant creaks of the manor settling in the cold night. "At this moment with lack of sleep, I might even turn into a zombie," He sighed within himself, "Turning into a zombie with no sleep and stress must be just a matter of time, I can really feel it." The image of the chained beast behind the gate kept playing behind his eyes, the way it had looked at him, spoken into his mind.'My key.'Even now, hours later, the words haunted him like a curse.Though he isn't sure whether it is that beast that spoke to him or not, but deep inside his consciousness, he could feel that it's none other than that beast which spoke to him."Ezra, I'm waiting for you,
MY KEY
"Do you think it's okay?""Of course, it is okay...." "Aren't we here on that purpose only?" "Did you even check whether he is asleep or not?" "My enchanting voice can make anyone fall asleep in seconds..." The voices came from the golden light particles that surrounded Christian while he was in his deep sleep."We have to keep our promise which we made to Marie." "He is asleep, let us show the truth through his dream." Strange voices reached his ears but he still couldn't understand what exactly it was, as he was already enveloped in deep slumber.The world around Christian twisted like wet paint swirling in water. One second he was lying in bed, and the next, he stood in the middle of a vast courtyard that felt like it had been pulled from another timeline.The sky above was the color of fresh blood, deep red streaks smeared across black clouds. The ash rained softly like snow. The air was thick, and suffocating, nothing giving familiar vibes apart from creating goosebumps
IT'S TIME!
"Do what?" Christian laughed, glancing over at Luna with one eyebrow arched in amusement.Luna folded her arms, pouting dramatically as Christian acting as if he didn't understand what she is trying to say, "Don’t act innocent now, Chris… You know what I mean, don't you?" He leaned back against the car seat, arms resting on the steering wheel, "You'll have to be a little more specific, miss drama queen, only then I'll be able to understand."She gasped, feigning hurt, "Drama queen? Is that how you treat the woman who just saved you from a raging hurricane disguised as a human girl?"Christian chuckled, tilting his head slightly. "You mean Mia?"Luna grinned, moving closer to him, "That’s right, I stood by your side and endured her shrieking, so now you're indebted to me." He raised a brow teasing her. "What? Indebted? Do you want a medal? Gold or silver?""Nope," she said, popping the ‘p’. Then, with a playful twinkle in her eyes, she added, "I want ramen." Christian blinked with
