The Majestic Heir Chapter 184 - The Engagement Night (Part 3)
Wangyal may have been boasting about noble life, but what he said was true. As the grand double doors swung open, two more attendants, clad in Wyndham’s signature formal attire, swiftly moved to stand beside Margaret and Edward, flanking them.With Harper in the center, the front row now consisted of five people, exuding an air of solemnity and formality."Miss Winslow, please hold for a moment." One of the attendants gently stopped Harper from stepping forward."Ladies and gentlemen, please rise to welcome the family of the bride-to-be from the Winslow household." A commanding voice resonated through the vast hall.The entire room obeyed, rising from their seats."Miss Winslow, you may proceed now." The same attendant finally granted permission. "But please, walk slowly."Harper let out a small scoff, visibly irritated. She had been uncomfortable the moment she arrived at this place. Now, with all these elaborate formalities, instead of feeling the reverence expected of such an occas
The Majestic Heir Chapter 185 - The Engagement Night (Part 4)
"The groom-to-be, Lord Nicholas Everstone, and the bride-to-be, Miss Harper Winslow. May you be blessed by the heavens, protected, and guided by its grace."The wedding officiant, clad in flowing white robes adorned with intricate accessories, wore a golden crown atop his head and held a golden staff in his left hand. With his right hand, he gestured alternately towards Nicholas and Harper. Beside him stood two attendants, each holding a tray.The officiant then took a peacock feather, approximately a foot long, from the tray held by the attendant on his right. He dipped it into a golden basin filled with holy water on the tray of the attendant to his left. With careful precision, he sprinkled the sacred water onto Nicholas and Harper, three times each.Closing his eyes, he pressed his hands together in front of his chest and murmured a prayer. When he opened them again, his gaze was both serene and resolute as he turned to Nicholas."Lord Nicholas Everstone, in the name of the divine
The Majestic Heir Chapter 186 - The Engagement Night (Final Part)
"Ummm, m-my child, I mean..."Harper's words sent a shockwave through the entire gathering. But of all the people present, the officiant was perhaps the most stunned.In his twenty years of officiating ceremonies, he had never witnessed a woman reject a man at a wedding. And to make matters worse, the rejected party was a nobleman."I mean..."So shaken was the officiant that he had to swallow hard several times just to find his voice. After all, he was the one who had whispered to Harper. If things spiraled out of control, he would undoubtedly be among those blamed."I cannot accept someone I do not love—someone to whom I cannot dedicate my life."Harper cut in before the officiant could finish his sentence, making her stance unmistakably clear."I cannot imagine a future with a man like that. And for that reason, I refuse this engagement."Her words rang with unwavering conviction as she locked eyes with the officiant. There was no hesitation, no uncertainty—just pure resolve.At th
The Majestic Heir Chapter 187 - The Beginning of Chaos
"No, you can't do this to me!"Snapping out of his daze after his body froze for a few seconds from the shock crashing into his chest, Nicholas refused to stay still. He hurried after Harper, who was walking away from him."Please, don't joke around like this. This night is too important—for us, for our future."But instead of being moved by his pleas, Harper only felt more disgusted. Rather than stopping, she continued forward without even glancing back at him."Please, I'm begging you. I swear I'll never hurt your feelings again. Just... don't do this."Because Harper remained silent, Nicholas quickened his pace. He even tried to grab her shoulder, but she ignored him completely."Harpie, please, isn't this what we wanted? The future we dreamed of? You still remember that, don’t you?"Out of options, Nicholas grabbed her hand and pulled her toward him."Tell me, deep down, you love me. That’s the truth, isn't it?" Holding both of her hands in his, Nicholas locked eyes with her, his
The Majestic Heir Chapter 188 - Cunning Smile
"Aaawwch!"Many women present couldn't help but scream as they witnessed Harper slam Nicholas to the ground. Most of them sat on the right side, indicating they were either distant relatives or close acquaintances of the Everstone family."Oh my God! Harper just used violence against a nobleman? That's unforgivable! He must be severely punished!"While these people were in shock over what had just happened, a young woman in a maroon velvet dress sitting in the second row on the right side merely grinned."Wow, wow, wow! What am I seeing here? Harper, you’re far more ruthless than I thought."While others looked tense or shocked, this young woman remained calm. Her expression showed neither fear nor concern, but pure delight at the chaos unfolding before her."Good! Keep going! Beat that bastard! Punch and kick him as much as you like! Hahaha!"Ignoring the disapproving looks from those around her, the young woman continued to cheer, thoroughly enjoying Harper’s actions.Her name was R
The Majestic Heir Chapter 189 - Rachel's Fate
Sobs racked Rachel's body as tears streamed down her face. The pain was unbearable, radiating through her like a searing wound, and yet, somehow, she remained conscious."Nic, stop! Please, stop! It hurts!" she cried, shaking her head desperately, pleading with him.But Nicholas only grinned wider, as if her suffering fueled something dark within him. His grip tightened, his actions growing more forceful, his disregard for her pain chilling."Nic, you bastard! I said, stop!"Summoning all the strength she had left, Rachel tried to push him away, but she was no match for his overpowering strength. Her struggle was in vain.Then—Slap! Slap!Two sharp strikes landed across her face."Scream all you want, you little tramp! No one will hear you, let alone save you! I made sure your parents wouldn’t be home tonight. This night belongs to us! Hahaha!"Nicholas’ eyes gleamed with wicked delight. The more she fought, the more he relished in her helplessness.And in fact, it was his plan to ma
The Majestic Heir Chapter 190 - The Price of an Insult
"Harper, watch your tone and remember where you are!"Alistair rose from his seat at the front row of the right-side section. His face was flushed red, and his jaw tightened.Seeing his only son humiliated in public was an insult to the entire Everstone family. He couldn’t stand by and do nothing."Daring to act so insolently toward the Everstone family—do you have any idea what consequences await you and your family?"Hearing that warning, Harper halted her steps. She turned toward the voice and spoke firmly."Did I say anything offensive? All I stated was the truth—that I cannot have any relationship with your family. Where is the fault in that?""Hah, nonsense! Do you think just because your family is the wealthiest in this city, you can defy me? Let me make one thing clear—if I wish, I can ruin your family overnight!"Alistair was not making empty threats. As a baron, he wielded the greatest power in Wyndham. Forget the Winslow family—even the mayor himself bowed to him.With such
The Majestic Heir Chapter 191 - We Welcome You into Our Family
"Dad, why are you begging like this? Get up!"Harper rushed to Edward and embraced him, then tried to pull him to his feet so he wouldn’t have to bow before this extortionist baron.But Edward didn’t move. No matter how many times Harper tried, the man remained kneeling before Alistair, his head lowered, as if deeply contemplating the deal the baron had just offered."Harper, forgive me for interfering in your affairs."The Mayor of Wyndham, who had been seated at the front of the left group, now rose from his chair."But what Lord Everstone says is true. No commoner in this kingdom can insult a noble family without facing severe consequences."His expression was serious and tense as he spoke. He was the one who had introduced Harper to Nicholas years ago and had been delighted that the engagement was finally taking place. Seeing how things had unfolded, he was truly taken aback."If I may offer some advice, please reconsider your decision. It may be difficult to live with someone you

Chapter 229 - A Little Secret
"You really think you can kill that man with just your cultivation power?"Leah had just stepped out of the courtyard, confident that everything was going according to plan, when a woman’s voice suddenly echoed in her ear.She immediately turned her gaze toward where the voice had come from—a vacant house, roughly five hundred meters ahead."A woman’s voice?" Leah muttered. "Who is she?"It wasn’t a shout, not even close. More like a whisper. But from that distance?Still frowning in confusion, she spotted a figure—faint, dressed in white, gliding gracefully forward. The woman’s dress shimmered like silk, catching the faintest hints of moonlight.It was two in the morning, and the surrounding area was dim at best. Yet somehow, the woman was already standing right in front of her."You want to kill Marvel, don’t you?""Who are you?"Leah instinctively clenched her fists, stepping
Chapter 228 - A Brilliant Plan
One day earlier."I don’t have much time. I need to take Marc out—fast. But that bastard Marvel... he’s taking my crew to rob a bank tomorrow."Leah muttered under her breath, her brow furrowed deep in thought.She had returned to Duskmoor with the intention of rounding up a few of her people to help eliminate Marc. But the moment she set foot in the district, this unexpected mess hit her like a slap in the face."What the hell am I supposed to do?"She couldn’t use her best men—Marvel had already gotten to them.“Give us the weapons and help us secure the money, and half of it’s yours.”That was Marvel’s promise.Ten million dollars. That was the rumored amount sitting inside the Central Bank of Cammont.If the job went well, the Larsian people would walk away with five million. With that kind of cash, they wouldn’t have to worry about survival for years."There’s no way I can change their minds now. I have to go with them."Leah kept pacing, muttering as she pieced her plan together.
Chapter 227 - An Old Friend
Slap!“Dignity? Don’t talk crap in front of me! You’re just a filthy woman looking for attention, that’s why you ran off to the city! You just wanted a man to satisfy your lust, didn’t you?!”Ptui!Leah lifted her bruised face and spat—blood mixed with saliva—straight at Marvel’s face, utterly disgusted by his vile rant.“You animal! Your mouth’s just as filthy as your actions! Thank the heavens I dumped you—otherwise, I might’ve died today right alongside you!”Her body was weak, but Leah’s words were sharp, laced with venom.“Hahaha! Die? Are you out of your mind? How could a tiny scratch like this kill me? No, sweetheart. I’m the one who’s going to kill you!”Bang! Bang! Bang!Marvel balled his fist again and drove it into Leah’s gut—over and over. If she weren’t a cultivator, she would’ve died from the first round of blows. Leah had to focus her inner energy on the points where his fists landed, trying to shield her internal organs.But then, one of his punches struck a vital spot.
Chapter 226 - The Retaliatory Slap
"Was I too harsh on him?"Leah sat by her bedroom window, staring at the stars overhead, her heart heavy with doubt. It wasn’t that she wanted to slap him. She just needed him to understand how deeply she hated the way he had acted.But now, ten days had passed.No word from Marvel. Not a single call. Not even a text.He hadn't even tried sneaking into her house to see her like he used to.Every time they had a fight, no matter how big or small, he was always the first to apologize.If they fought during the day, he'd show up that night with a cake—"Sorry" written in frosting.If they fought at night, she'd wake up to find a bouquet hanging outside her window, and there he'd be, waiting on his motorcycle.But this time? Nothing.Not even a hint of remorse.Leah had considered going to him first. She was still angry—hurt, really. Especially because Marvel didn’t seem the least bit sorry.
Chapter 225 - A Satisfied Heart
Leah's body was sent flying over thirty feet from the force of the punch. The pain etched across her face said everything—there was a massive gap in strength between them.Boom!She slammed into a thick tree trunk, splintering it on impact.But as a cultivator, Leah wasn’t one to stay down for long. Gritting her teeth, she struggled back to her feet, still reeling.“Hahaha! That punch won’t kill me. No matter how far you’ve come in your cultivation, it means nothing if you’re still just a bastard like you.”Her cheek throbbed with heat where Marvel had hit her, but Leah burst out laughing. She was satisfied—ecstatic, even—that she'd landed a blow to his face in return.She knew Marvel well. He took great pride in his looks. Damaging any part of his body, especially his face, felt like a personal victory. One worth celebrating."Now look at you! Just another ugly bastard no one would even glance at! Hahaha! What a pitiful excuse of a man!"Leah kept laughing, a raw, triumphant joy bubb
Chapter 224 - You're No Match for Me!
Leah staggered back several steps as Marvel’s punch landed squarely on her rib.She still managed to keep her grip on both daggers, but her chest was tightening, the blow clearly affecting her.“What? That’s it? That’s all you've got?” Marvel scoffed. “Still stuck at Level 12? You must’ve been slacking off like crazy.”His voice was laced with mockery, and the smirk on his face made it worse.They used to be cultivators of the same level. But two years ago, right after their relationship ended, Marvel had gone into seclusion to focus on his cultivation.When he returned to Duskmoor two months ago, no one knew how far he’d advanced. Still, plenty speculated that his current power had to be at least Level 15.“Shut your damn mouth, asshole! I’ll kill you!” Leah shouted, forcing herself to stand tall.But the fire in her eyes wasn’t as bright as before. Deep down, she hadn’t expected Marvel’s cultivation to leap this far.“Kill me? You really think you can?”Marvel clasped both hands beh
Chapter 223 - Don’t You Dare Try That Again
Bang! Bang! Bang!A burst of gunfire exploded from the pistol aimed directly at Marvel’s face. Leah’s expression was cold, merciless—there wasn’t a hint of sympathy or sentiment left. All she wanted now was to blow this bastard’s face apart, just like she had done to that sniper earlier.But Marvel wasn’t just any man.Just like before, when he’d dodged point-blank sniper fire, he moved again—shifting his head left and right with sharp precision, dodging the barrel of Leah’s gun. The bullets tore into the ground, missing their mark completely.“Die, you bastard! That’s what you get for messing with me! You’re gonna feel everything I felt!”Bang! Bang! Bang!Fueled by pure rage, Leah kept pulling the trigger, firing over and over, trying to hit his moving face. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t land a single shot.And by the time the magazine was empty, not a single bullet had even grazed Marvel’s skin.Marvel wasn’t about to waste the opening she’d just handed him.“Stupi
Chapter 222 - A Relationship from the Past
No one knew that Leah had once shared an intimate relationship with Marvel. The young woman had kept their connection tightly under wraps, never displaying it in public—especially not with her father Lars around. Lars harbored a deep hatred for Marvel and all the shadowy factions lurking in Duskmoor. And Leah, of course, knew better than to take that kind of risk.But everything changed two years ago.Leah had planned to surprise Marvel—only to walk in on him wrapped up in a passionate embrace with a woman who wasn’t wearing a single stitch of clothing.In that moment, Leah didn’t scream. She didn’t cry. She didn’t even say a word.But from that day forward, something in her changed. The warmth between them vanished. She never got close to him again.In fact, it seemed like that very incident was what finally pushed her to leave Duskmoor—to become Violet’s personal bodyguard instead.“You
Chapter 221 - What Do You Want?
“Why did you do that?”The sniper's face—crushed beneath Marvel’s boot—was now an unrecognizable mess. But instead of looking pleased, the gangster boss stared at the young woman with a cold, piercing glare. Leah’s actions hadn’t satisfied him—they’d only raised questions.“Tell me why you shot him.”“Oh, come on. What are you even talking about?”Leah, the woman who had just appeared and gunned down the sniper without hesitation, shrugged casually. Her expression was calm, almost bored.“Why would I need your permission to kill someone who was getting in our way? Obviously, I had to take him out.”“Really? That’s your story?”Marvel narrowed his eyes, the intensity in his gaze sharpening like a blade. He studied her carefully, like a predator sizing up an unfamiliar threat.“Tell me—are you hiding something from me?”“Hufff... You're seriously paranoid.”Leah waved him off, shaking her head in exasperation, as if swatting away a pointless accusation.“Why would I do that? We came her
