The Majestic Heir Chapter 25 - The Murderers
The front courtyard of the Quentin manor’s armory.“Hello? Speak clearly, what’s happening?” Bachary shouted into his phone, his face tense as he listened to the panicked voice on the other end.“Th-they… they’re not human, sir.” A soldier’s weak voice came through, mixed with screams and gunfire in the background.“What do you mean? Explain yourself!” But before Bachary could get more information, the call was abruptly cut off. The last thing he heard was the sound of something heavy stomping on the soldier’s phone.“Bachary, what’s going on?” Darla, who had just stepped out of the armory wearing a black uniform and a bulletproof vest, asked with a frown, her face full of questions. “Has something happened to them?”“It seems the Alpha team has failed, my lady.” Bachary let out a long sigh, trying to steady his emotions. Although he didn’t have a clear picture of what had happened to the team, he was certain they were in serious trouble.“Then what are we waiting for? Send in the Bra
The Majestic Heir Chapter 26 - The Master Healer
Click!"You've killed my soldiers and innocent people, yet you can still act so nonchalant," Darla's voice seethed with anger as she disengaged the safety on her weapon, pointing it at the back of Marc’s head. Behind the gas mask covering her face, Darla's expression burned with rage. "Daring to endanger innocent lives—you all deserve to die!""My lady…" Bachary, her butler, hesitated, stepping forward to stop her. He wanted to remind her that, no matter how grave their crimes were, these people deserved a trial. An immediate execution would violate the law.However, before Bachary could finish, Darla raised her hand, signaling him to halt."You still have the nerve to act arrogant, ignoring our presence," she continued, her steps slow and deliberate as she moved toward Marc, finger poised on the trigger. Marc’s back remained turned to Darla and her team, a gesture she read as blatant disrespect. "Let’s see if your arrogance can save your head from my bullet.""Lady Darla, please allo
The Majestic Heir Chapter 27 - The Evidence
“What about the healer?” Darla mumbled, her brow furrowed, her expression laced with panic. Her voice was so soft it was almost inaudible. She was reminded that the reason she joined the Bravo team on this mission was to ensure the healer's safety—something her anger toward Marc had momentarily made her forget.“Yes, I must find the healer,” she thought to herself. She knew there was no one better to ask about the healer's whereabouts than Marc. Yet, she refused to approach him. Her hatred for the young man ran far deeper than she was willing to admit.Just as Darla was about to take another step, her phone rang.“Hello, Mom…”“Darla, I have such wonderful news! A master healer from Eastcliff has just arrived at our estate!”“Mom, I’ll be home immediately.”As she ended the call, Darla’s previously dim eyes lit up with excitement. The thick fog of gloom that had clouded her face disappeared, replaced by a wide smile. “A master healer from Eastcliff? He must be able to cure my father!”
The Majestic Heir Chapter 28 - Second Appointment
“Mr. Belmont, are you sure about your plan?” Newell couldn’t hide the surprise on his face when Marc mentioned that he wanted to make massive improvements to the village of Greencliff.“Of course, Mr. Brown.” Unlike the expression on the mayor’s face, Marc nodded slowly and flashed a wide smile. “I want to rebuild this village.”Marc thought it would be wonderful if this village could come back to life, just like it was ten years ago before the goblins caused chaos.“But, Mr. Belmont…” Newell took a deep breath before continuing. Since there was no one else in the lobby at the moment, he felt he could express his thoughts to Marc more openly. “The property prices in Greencliff have dropped drastically in recent years, but rebuilding the entire village… that would cost a lot of money.”Rebuilding Greencliff would consume a significant portion of the city's budget. And seeing the state of the city, Newell wasn’t sure it would be profitable from an investment standpoint. “Even if we spen
The Majestic Heir Chapter 29 - The Guest
One hour earlier.“Is this true, what I just heard?” Keith’s face lit up with a radiant smile, the joy clear in his eyes as he heard that the master healer would be coming to his house today as scheduled. “This feels like a dream come true!”“This is such a great blessing that Master Tilcott is willing to come to our place,” Wilma, who had overheard her husband's conversation on the phone, couldn’t hide her happiness either. “Our daughter will be healed, Keith,” she said, hugging her husband tightly.Although the Felix family was no ordinary family in Cammont, Keith still realized that they couldn't compare to the likes of the Richmonds or the Quentins. While those who made appointments with Helma came from not just this town but from several important figures in the province and even the royal capital, it was clear that Helma’s services were sought by those in power.Aware of his own status, Keith had never considered asking Helma for help. However, seeing his daughter’s condition co
The Majestic Heir Chapter 30 - The Young Singer
"Come in, please." Keith forced a smile onto his face as he welcomed Marc into his house. Despite this, his mind was seething with anger. "Damn it! This brat is such a master con artist!"Just yesterday, Keith hadn’t cared much when the three wives of the shop owners said that Marc was a skilled con man. To him, no con artist or criminal could do anything in front of him. They would all kneel before him soon enough.But today, he had to suppress his anger even further when he saw Marc coming to his house. To Keith, it seemed like the young man was challenging him. And what enraged him even more, this damn brat didn’t come alone but brought a powerful figure with him. "If it weren’t for Mr. Robins being here, I would’ve beaten this bastard into the ground!""After deceiving Mr. Wellington and Mr. Skiyd, now he’s managed to con a butler from the Quentin family," Keith thought again, glaring at Marc out of the corner of his eye with anger and disgust that he tried to hide. "I can't let m
The Majestic Heir Chapter 31 - The Giant Rambutan
“Don’t worry, my dear,” Wilma thought to herself, unable to hide the sadness etched across her face. She knew how much singing had been her daughter’s dream since childhood, and she couldn’t bear to let her lose that dream. “Master Tilcott will surely heal you soon.”As her heart filled with thoughts of hope and prayer, Marc’s voice, though soft, cut through her thoughts like an unwelcome guest. “Have you ever eaten a giant rambutan before?”“About this big.” Locking eyes with Rose, Marc raised his hand as though holding a spherical object slightly larger than a tennis ball. “Yeah, about the size of a soccer ball… Have you ever tried one?”While Rose furrowed her brows in confusion, Wilma could no longer suppress her anger. “You! What nonsense are you spouting?” Her tear-stained eyes widened menacingly, filled with fury.Wilma had never shown this side of herself in front of her daughter, but Marc’s absurd behavior pushed her over the edge. “Get out of here before I truly lose my pati
The Majestic Heir Chapter 32 - Realization
“M-Mom...”Keith’s fist hung in the air as his ears caught that voice again—the voice he had longed to hear for the past year. “Sweetheart...” Turning around, Keith saw Rose smiling at him. “D-Dad...”“You... you...” Rose struggled to form her words, her gaze fixed on Marc as he approached her.“Don’t try to speak just yet. You need plenty of rest.” Marc shook his head gently, smiling at the girl.“Since you said you consumed a giant rambutan, as I suspected, let me explain a little about this fruit,” Marc continued. Unlike ordinary rambutans, which are usually the size of a ping-pong ball, giant rambutans are much larger and exceptionally delicious—the most flavorful of all rambutan varieties. Despite their size, the fruit’s flesh is tender, with an unusually small seed.“Among all rambutan types, this one might seem the most tempting. But no one should eat it.” Marc’s tone turned serious, fully aware of the hidden dangers inside the fruit.Beneath the succulent flesh of the giant ra

Chapter 194 - Without Proof, Anyone Can Say Anything
What?The people accompanying Harper, especially those with ties to the Winslow family, were once again taken aback by Marc’s words."Is that true?"They might not have said it aloud, but the question echoed in their minds."Haven’t the Everstone family shown nothing but hospitality toward Miss Winslow and all of us? But... why is this young man making such accusations?"They didn’t want to blindly believe Marc’s words. But how could he lie—let alone make such a serious allegation—inside the baron’s own residence?Only a fool or a madman would do that! If he was saying something like this, then surely, he had evidence or something to back it up.The Everstone family members seemed to sense the growing doubts among the Winslows. And to prevent the situation from spiraling further out of control, someone had to take action."Well, well, well, what do we have here? Someone dares to accuse a noble family like ours with such outrageous, baseless claims? Hey, man, do you even understand tha
Chapter 193 - A Change of Plans
Meanwhile, in the last row of seats.[Looks like there’s been a change of plans.]Sent.Marc sent a message to Ulrich, explaining the situation unfolding in Wyndham.Initially, they had agreed to avoid any commotion until the first young man successfully obtained Earl Godfrey’s master file. However, given what was happening right in front of him, Marc couldn’t simply sit back any longer.With his incredibly sharp hearing, Marc could catch Rachel’s murmurs—whispers so faint that even people standing right next to her wouldn’t have been able to hear them. She was muttering about the crimes Nicholas had committed against her, as well as the long list of atrocities carried out by Alistair and the entire Everstone family.Because Rachel was only distantly related to the Everstone family, anyone hearing her accusations might assume she was making things up.But the situation unfolding now was aligning far too well with what she was saying. If nothing else, it was heading in the exact direct
Chapter 192 - Proceed?
As if to demonstrate their support for Harper, the Everstone family members rose from their seats and approached her."Harper, I'm so happy you're becoming part of our family." A young girl smiled warmly and winked at her. Her demeanor was nothing but friendly."I never imagined that all the young women in this family would be envious of your beauty. You’re clearly above them all."Her words and actions might have seemed kind, but one should never forget—she was an Everstone."Don't get too comfortable, bitch!" she cursed in her mind. "I'll make sure the day you lose that pretty face of yours comes sooner than you think! Hahaha!""Harper, welcome to the Everstone family!" One by one, members of the vast Everstone clan expressed their support, their gazes filled with warmth and acceptance.Seeing everyone so kind and affectionate toward her daughter, Margaret nearly teared up. Nothing worried a mother more than how her child would be received by her future in-laws. Witnessing their wel
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 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
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
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
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
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
