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 209 - The Scorpion Gang
"What? Are you serious? You actually let them do this?"Leah couldn’t believe her eyes.Hundreds of motorcycles were parked outside the building. Judging by their hardcore punk-style gear, anyone in this district would instantly recognize them—it was the Scorpion gang, the very group that had been Larsian’s sworn enemy for as long as she could remember.Back in the day, if the Larsians—the proud name the people here called themselves—ever spotted a Scorpion, they wouldn’t hesitate to shoot on sight. That hadn’t changed, not even when Leah left the group eight months ago.But now, seeing the Scorpions walking freely into their headquarters and being welcomed by many of her former allies—she simply couldn’t accept it."This is exactly what I wanted to show you, Lee. Things are different now. People think siding with them is the better option," Levi explained."No! This can’t be happening! I have to stop them!""Marvel, we’ve got everything you asked for. We can leave now."An older man
Chapter 208 - You’re Home?
Stepping through the doorway, the interior of the building was a stark contrast to its abandoned exterior. Inside, everything was neat and clean, resembling a fully operational factory.However, instead of just metalworking equipment, the walls were lined with an array of firearms, ranging from the lightest to the heaviest models. Several men and women were busy assembling specific gun parts, working with meticulous precision."This place hasn’t changed. Thank goodness!" Purple grinned widely. Though she hadn’t been born here, she had spent decades of her life within these walls. This place had once been her home.But the further she walked, the more she noticed the stares. Men and women alike watched her with eyes full of doubt. Instead of welcoming her back, their gazes carried disgust and resentment. Not a single one of them made a move to speak to her."Well, thank you all for such a warm welcome back to Duskmoor. You're too kind," Purple said sarcastically, as if addressing them
Chapter 207 - Shadow of Cammont
A few hours earlier in the city of Cammont.Vroom-vroom!A Ducati Panigale roared through the crowded streets, weaving effortlessly between cars and trucks. The rider, a woman clad in a black leather jacket and a matching short skirt, maneuvered with the precision of a professional racer. She had no trouble overtaking one vehicle after another, executing sharp turns and sudden brakes with a confidence that spoke volumes of her skill.Within minutes, she left the bustling part of the city behind and arrived at a district that, while seemingly abandoned, still had buildings in remarkably good condition.Duskmoor District.A large sign at the roadside marked the entrance as she approached a metal gate blocking off a secluded street. This place was infamous as The Shadow of Cammont, a hub for illicit dealings. Law enforcement rarely intervened here—as if there was an unspoken agreement with the government. Criminals who sought refuge in Duskmoor were left alone, so long as they stayed wit
Chapter 206 - The Final Plea
The elderly woman cast aside all the pride and respect she had once commanded as a matriarch of the Everstone clan. None of it mattered now. The only thing that mattered was an apology from the young man standing before her."My lady."Marc spoke, his voice calm yet resolute."This is not a personal dispute between me and Alistair, nor between me and your clan, where a simple apology could erase everything that has transpired. It is far greater than that. This is about my duty to take decisive action against the corruption that has plagued Walenstein Province."As Vice Marquis, Marc held authority second only to the Marquis himself. In the Kingdom of Lanshire, individuals of his rank were often the first to be deployed when matters of security arose, regardless of the situation.He had initially declined this title, knowing full well how it would alter his responsibilities. He had once been solely a healer, but this position burdened him with something far greater—the responsibility t
Chapter 205 - A Fitting Punishment
"Hey, you bastard! You used magic to mess with His Lordship's mind, didn't you?"Lara Everstone, the most beautiful girl in the clan—also the smartest, and of course, the most cunning—could no longer hold back when she saw her distant uncle running away as if he'd seen a ghost.Her anger boiled over. Alistair and Nicholas were both legitimate nobles of this clan, yet their fates were equally tragic.Nicholas lay unconscious in his private chambers, receiving treatment after being slammed to the ground by Harper. And now, his father, Lord Everstone himself, had been sent fleeing in terror by some unknown magical technique."Do you really think you can pull off such a vile trick on my uncle without anyone noticing?" the young woman shouted. "Remember, he is a noble, and you're just a commoner! No matter what you've done, it's a crime, and I’m certain the royal guards will come after you soon!"Lara’s face flushed red with rage, her words burning with passion. It almost sounded like she
Chapter 204 - Written Nonsense
"Y-you..."The cultivator's body trembled violently. The figure standing before him was too terrifying to face."Even if his abilities are only at level 10, why do I feel such overwhelming fear when I look into his eyes?" the cultivator thought."I won’t repeat myself." The words left Marc’s lips once more, his gaze fixed firmly on the cultivator’s eyes. This time, his tone carried an unmistakable authority.Under that piercing stare, the cultivator's body shook even harder. And for reasons beyond his comprehension, his right hand moved on its own, handing over the paper he had been clutching to Marc."W-what... what did you do to me?"The cultivator was even more shocked by the way his body had acted against his will. At that moment, he realized that this young man was no ordinary person. He had to be... a sorcerer!Ignoring the question, Marc took the paper from the cultivator’s hand and snapped a photo of it with his tablet.[What do you think? Is this enough to get him severely pu
Chapter 203 - A Miracle
"Stop!"The cultivator was about to grab the collar of the man in the blue suit, who lay curled up on the floor, his body drenched in blood, when Marc's voice stopped him. Naturally, that irritated him."Hey, what do you want by stopping me? You want to take his place and get beaten instead? Want me to smash your face in, huh?"The cultivator turned toward Marc, ready to strike the young man right then and there. However, for some reason, his body refused to move."Damn it! What’s happening to me?!"At the same time, without paying the cultivator the slightest bit of attention, Marc stepped toward the man in the blue suit, crouched down, and placed his palm on his forehead."He's just an ordinary man, yet you beat him as if he were your equal?"Marc kept his palm pressed against the man’s forehead as his cold, piercing gaze locked onto the cultivator."Yeah? And what’s your problem with that?" The cultivator, clad in black from head to toe, sneered at Marc. Despite his arrogance, he s
Chapter 202 - I Can't
"I-I... I can't sign it."The man in the blue suit stammered, his voice shaking as he refused.If he handed over all his assets, wouldn't that be the same as signing his own death warrant?"You insolent fool! How dare you say that? Have you grown tired of living, huh?!"Slap!A resounding slap landed on the man's cheek. Because it came from a cultivator, the force sent him flying a meter back, his face twisting from the impact. A searing pain spread across his skin, making his vision blur.But the torment wasn't over yet.The cultivator yanked him upright again, forcing him back into his seat."Sign it. Now. Don't resist. If you refuse again, I'll make sure you never show your face in public again!"The man in the blue suit sat dazed, blood trickling from the corner of his lips. Yet, despite the agony, he shook his head. He would rather die than lose everything he had built.“I have a wife and child to protect,” he told himself. “I'd rather die than see them suffer.”"You stubborn bas
Chapter 201 - Surrender!
"Oh, wait! Why should I be merciful? Hahaha!"Laughing uproariously, his body tilting back, Alistair looked as if he were toying with those foolish enough to stand against him."Since you've all chosen to stand behind this boy in defiance of me, you've sealed your own fate!"Pointing his finger at the people gathered behind Marc, Alistair's face twisted into a sinister grin. Any trace of patience and courtesy he had previously shown was now completely gone.It wasn't just Alistair. The other members of the Everstone clan were equally overjoyed, their expressions smug and victorious."That brat—Helma’s disciple—actually thought his status alone could challenge us? What a joke! Hahaha!"The bespectacled man threw his head back in laughter, his eyes fixed on Marc. Not long ago, he had suffered humiliation after losing an argument to the young man. But now, it seemed he had nothing to be embarrassed about anymore. Tonight, this boy and everyone with him would be wiped out.One by one, the
