••NO POV••

"When did I ever introduce Oliver as my nephew?" A heavy silence settled after Edward’s cold question filled through the hall, "If you people assume that he is the heir, it's up to you, not our fault!"

Gasps spread instantly, all the faces turned pale.

"What? If it's not Oliver...."

"Then… who is the heir?"

"Who is that secret heir?"

Everyone looked curious about the real heir, conversations froze mid-whisper, Edward lifted his chin slightly, his voice deep and steady.

"The real heir of the Sargent family never wanted his identity to be revealed, my nephew wants to keep his identity secret, but Oliver…. wanted fame, status, recognition."

Staring at Oliver, Edward sneered, "he pretended as the heir, and I merely allowed him to pretend, so that my nephew could continue to stay hidden till he wanted to reveal his identity."

People murmured in shock, Edward continued calmly, "Being an uncle, I supported my nephew's decision, however, my nephew proved that a true heir never n

  • DID I MAKE A MISTAKE?

    "Why is it too silent?" Christian thought to himself as he stepped into the house, since he couldn't see anyone in the living room or anywhere.James came to greet Christian, "welcome back, young master!""Where is everyone, James?" Christian gently asked, to which James explained, "Lord Sargent and madam went to hospital check-up, they didn't return yet, master Charles went on a work, lady Liliana and lady Betty said they'll not return for two days, about master Edward you know very well." Christian nodded his head, "so, looks like, only I was left alone in the house...." "No, young master," James replied softly, "lady Rosaline is still here waiting for you." Christian hummed and walked inside, the lights inside were warm and soft , completely opposite of the chaos he had walked away from, yet his expression held no trace of victory, only exhaustion that clung to him like a second skin.The weight of the award in his hand felt heavier than it should have.James was puzzled by Chr

  • PASSED IN BETWEEN SOULMATES!

    ••NO POV••"Did you even hear what I've just said?" Adrian sighed looking at Christian's silence, but even then Christian didn’t respond.Adrian’s words still lingered in the air, heavy and sharp, hanging over both of them like an unspoken judgment.The corridor was silent, almost too silent, except for the faint music drifting from the room far behind them, but here, in this dim corner, everything felt colder than usual.Christian finally inhaled, steady yet hollow, trying to break the silence."Sometimes," he said quietly, staring at the floor rather than at Adrian, "it’s better to break a heart in the beginning itself rather than increasing someone’s hopes for a long time, though it hurts now, it's far better than suffering later."Adrian’s expression froze at the words of Christian, he continued, in a calm voice… it sounded almost too calm.Calm in a way only someone deeply hurt or deeply determined can be."If I let her believe something that wasn’t real… if I let her have hope f

  • AM I RIGHT, CHRIS?

    "That guy deserves this," Luna said while holding Christian's hand, gently he patted on Luna's hand, "looks like you're worried about me...." Luna hummed quietly, "I was scared to death thinking you really fell in that bastard's trap." "Why would I?" Christian chuckled, Aurora's eyes reddening with furiousness after looking at Christian and Luna's closeness.Adrian cleared his throat, "it's good to control your possessiveness, if not, that guy will be freaked out, he is too naive!"She just rolled her eyes, Andrew and Kira also slowly went to join Luna and Christian.All the people who are in the waiting hall surrounded by a thick air with tension, the silence was so sharp it felt like it could cut even a glass.The servant threw water on the face of Oliver, while he laid half-conscious on the couch, water dripping from his hair, and Mia sat on the floor beside him, shaking, nervousness evident on her face as all her plan changed out of a sudden.Her dress was thorn with visible ski

  • WHERE EXACTLY?

    ••NO POV••"What are you all doing here?"The voice drifted through the dim corridor, calm, and steady, cutting through the rising panic like a clean blade.Everyone turned sharply to see Christian who stood a few steps behind them, hands tucked casually into his pockets, posture composed, suit still perfect and elegant as if he had stepped straight out of a magazine cover instead of a scandal.The servant who had confidently accused him earlier was startled and his face turned pale as if he saw a ghost.Aurora exhaled in quiet relief, "Thank God!" Andrew almost collapsed dramatically, Luna slapped her own forehead.Adrian's eyes narrowed with a knowing smile, "this little one is a magician for real!" Edward’s brows twitched, half worried and half relieved.For a moment, no one dared to speak.Christian stepped closer, his gaze sweeping across every stunned face, and his voice remained soft, but it carried through the hall with razor-sharp clarity."Is something wrong? Why are you

  • WHY IS SHE HERE?

    ••NO POV••"What’s wrong now…" He muttered under his breath, his tone was calm but turned alert because of sudden power cut.He blinked in the deep darkness, his gaze shifting toward the doorway and the door was slightly opened.As he adjusted his eyes to the dim light, a figure appeared at the end of the corridor. He could see a woman hesitantly stepping quietly, her perfume heavy in the still air but he felt that perfume was familiar."Mia?" He whispered under his breath, frowning, "why is she here?" Mia looked anxious, and confused. "Oliver? Are you here?" That was all it took, Christian understood everything. Oliver’s strange confidence, the drugged drink, bringing to a place like this, all of it pieced together in an instant. Without another word, Christian stepped to the side, silent as a shadow, and slipped out through the second door, closing it softly behind him. The faint sound of the latch clicking echoed in the silence. Inside, the faint creak of footsteps and
