The Majestic Heir Chapter 93 - The Intruders
"This is odd!" Edward muttered, unable to hide the panic on his face. "The event is set to begin in just a few minutes—so why did Harper leave without telling me?"Not only had she not returned, but she also wasn’t answering her phone. At that moment, a growing sense of worry filled his heart."Is there any update?" asked Patriarch Winslow as he noticed that Dominic had just finished coordinating with the other bodyguards."Sir, we cannot yet confirm whether this is connected to Miss Harper’s disappearance. However, it appears there are two guests who look extremely suspicious," Dominic replied, showing the tablet in his hand to the patriarch. "They forced their way in after claiming to be from the Brown family.""The Brown family?" Edward furrowed his brow as he took the tablet and examined the images of the two individuals whose faces were clearly visible in the CCTV footage."No, I’ve never seen these two before." Edward was on good terms with Newell, the mayor of Cammont, and had
The Majestic Heir Chapter 94 - Him
"That's the house," Harper said coldly, her face showing clear irritation. The Huracan she was driving came to a stop not far from the gate of a grand manor, situated in an area not too far from Wyndham Crest. A house with a long, imposing white fence and a semi-automatic gate guarded by three well-dressed men—this was the residence of Lord Everstone, the Baron of Wyndham."Hurry up and get out so I can go home.""Do you think I came all the way to your house just to pick you up?" Instead of opening the door, Marc crossed his arms, not looking at Harper but rather surveying the surroundings of the manor. "You need to take me inside."Marc knew that Lord Everstone was Harper's future father-in-law. Therefore, the easiest way to enter the place without any trouble was to go in with the girl."Marc, do you really have no sense of empathy?" Though Harper's gaze was icy, her eyes betrayed a sense of desperation. "This is my party—how can I just leave it?""I know. But if I don't retrieve t
The Majestic Heir Chapter 95 - Relieved
Without saying a word, Harper opened the car door and stepped out. Although she had initially been reluctant to come to this manor, she now found herself hurrying toward the front door. What she had just witnessed ignited a mix of jealousy and frustration in her heart."Welcome, Miss Winslow." A male servant bowed his head with a wide smile as Harper stepped inside."I assume you've come to pick up the Young Master, haven't you?" The servant assumed that the young lady had arrived to escort her fiancé to the party."Go away," Harper scoffed, struggling to conceal her irritation. Though her tone wasn't loud, there was an unmistakable curt chill in her voice.She knew this servant was one of Nicholas’s closest attendants. Seeing him now only brought back the fresh memory of the baron’s son leaving with another woman. The thought made her blood boil."My apologies, Miss." The servant bowed once again and was about to leave immediately.However, at that very moment, something clicked in H
The Majestic Heir Chapter 96 - The Final Warning
What?At that moment, Harper’s body froze in place."C-cousin?" Her brow furrowed. What she had just heard left her unable to continue speaking.After sinking into shock for several seconds, unable to utter a word, she finally realized that she had completely misunderstood the girl. "So, that girl is Nic’s cousin?" she thought. "Why has he never mentioned her to me? I almost lost my temper just now."Slowly, Harper regained her calm and composed demeanor. The servant’s words had lifted a heavy burden from her heart."That’s right," the servant confirmed seriously, keeping his voice as low as possible. "Miss Woods has even been helping the young master prepare that surprise for the past few days.""Alright, you may leave now," Harper said lightly. Her tone was much more relaxed than before."You won’t punish me, will you?" The servant hesitantly lifted his head, gazing at Harper with a trace of unease. The
The Majestic Heir Chapter 97 - The Cultivators' Room
"Never mind, let's continue," Marc said calmly, entirely unaffected by Harper's words. He knew the girl was subtly trying to intimidate him."You!" Clenching her fists in frustration, Harper turned around without saying anything and resumed walking."Welcome, Miss Winslow." As soon as she reached the door, the two bodyguards who had recognized her immediately lowered their heads and opened the door for her.Nodding without a word, Harper stepped inside, followed by Marc. Since the young man had arrived with her, the bodyguards assumed he was her personal guard and did not stop him.The moment Marc set foot inside the room, he was immediately engulfed by an atmosphere thick with internal energy. Unlike the previous room, this one had normal lighting, yet that only served to make the space feel even more ominous.Under normal circumstances, an ordinary person would feel suffocated by the presence of a single high-level cultivator. In this room, there
The Majestic Heir Chapter 98 - Just A Little Kid
"Outrageous!" Clenching his jaw, the black-clad cultivator immediately rose from his seat.Along with him, four other cultivators did the same. Marc’s words had not only insulted one of their comrades but all of them as a whole."Kid, I had no prior quarrel with you, yet you dare speak so rudely to me?" The black-robed cultivator took slow, deliberate steps forward, his gaze locked onto Marc. His deep voice carried a weight of anger. "You're clearly asking for a lesson."Standing a short distance ahead of Marc, Harper swallowed hard, over and over. Her face, already tense, grew even more strained."Damn it! Does this kid have any brain cells left?" she cursed inwardly, glancing between Marc and the cultivators, whose tempers had clearly been ignited. "I told him not to stir up unnecessary trouble, didn’t I? So why is he still so stubborn?"Like the cultivators, Harper was increasingly frustrated with Marc's attitude. Even so, she still
The Majestic Heir Chapter 99 - You Are a Fool!
"Thank you, sir." Flashing a wry smile, Harper wasted no time in grabbing Marc's hand and pulling him away from the scene. They made their way to the corner of the room where a staircase led up to the fourth floor—the baron’s private quarters."Have you completely lost your mind?" Harper couldn’t hold back her anger as they reached the second floor. Her face was flushed, and her breaths came in short, sharp bursts. If she hadn’t remembered Marc’s mysterious pressure technique, she would have slapped and beaten him right then and there."Just because you've reached level 10 and have that mysterious technique, do you think you can take them on? That’s completely absurd! I never thought you were this foolish! Do you have any idea how your actions affect me and my family?"Harper continued to vent her frustration. She had almost landed herself in serious trouble with those cultivators because of Marc’s reckless words, which
The Majestic Heir Chapter 100 - Shadow
Even though Harper appeared indifferent to Marc’s words, she did exactly as he instructed. Lowering her internal energy, she took slow steps toward one of the bodyguards."Gentleman, you will let me pass now." Speaking softly, Harper’s gaze never wavered from the bodyguard’s eyes. Without waiting for his response, she moved to the next bodyguard and did the same.Then, something strange happened. With vacant eyes, both bodyguards stood frozen in place, doing nothing as Harper reached for the door handle and pushed it open.With ease, she entered the room, followed closely by Marc."Harper, you’re here?" A man in his early fifties, dressed in an aristocratic-style suit, turned his head as soon as he heard the door open. His forehead creased.He was Alistair Everstone, Baron of Wyndham. Beside him, four men in their sixties sat in chairs, their eyes fixed on a purple box atop the table. It seemed they had been trying to unrave

Chapter 149 - The Attack
Whoosh!A powerful gust of wind surged from the masked man’s hand as he swung his sharp-clawed fingers toward Marc’s chest. Not only was the attack incredibly fast, but it also radiated an intense, chilling aura.“This technique?” Marc frowned slightly before his body suddenly vanished from his spot, narrowly avoiding the masked man’s strike.“Why does that technique seem so familiar?”A second later, Marc reappeared nearly two hundred meters behind the Huracan. He didn’t want to fight too close to the car, knowing it would only terrify Harper further.However, almost instantly, Marc sensed the same powerful cold aura materializing in front of him, less than a meter away. At the same time, the masked man appeared out of nowhere, swinging his claws once more—this time aiming for Marc’s face.Whoosh!Marc tilted his head slightly, allowing the attack to pass just a centimeter beside him. Almost simultaneously, his clenched left fist shot forward with incredible speed.Bang!His punch la
Chapter 148 - You Too
Out of nowhere, or perhaps without warning, the masked man suddenly appeared beside the car window, pressing his palm against the glass. At a glance, Harper caught sight of his long, black nails, and her heartbeat went wild. Her breath became ragged, as if the air had been stolen from her lungs. Cold sweat poured out from every pore of her body."I-Is he... is he a ghost?"It was as if terror had swallowed her whole. In her eyes, this man was a devil of the night, coming to claim human lives. And this time, she was the target.But then, something struck her about him."Oh my God! Could it be?"Harper's heart nearly stopped when she realized that this man was a cultivator. A tremendously powerful one."His internal energy is incredibly strong!"Though Harper was only at Level Six in cultivation, her mental strength was sharp enough to sense someone else's cultivation level. Based on her estimation, the masked man’s strength was at least twice that of Shadow’s.In other words, this man
Chapter 147 - Give Me the Box!
"D-Don't come any closer! Get away! Stay away from me!"Pointing the rifle in his hands at the masked man, Lion staggered backward, his entire body trembling violently. Staring at the figure before him, an overwhelming fear consumed him whole, making it difficult to move. However, as someone experienced in facing life-and-death situations, his instincts screamed at him to flee."Give me the box."Slowly, the masked man pointed at the suitcase in Lion’s hands while taking a step forward."D-Don't even think about it. I-I... I'll never let it go."Lion kept retreating, his face filled with terror, until he accidentally felt something beneath his foot."A bazooka? Ah, I almost forgot about this!"Lowering himself quickly, he grabbed the rocket launcher from the ground. Summoning every ounce of courage left in his heart, he aimed it at the masked man."E-Even if you're a ghost, you’ll still die from this blast. So don’t even think about coming any closer."His body and voice still tremble
Chapter 146 - Not a Human
"Damn it! What’s happening?"The other soldiers flinched as a heart-wrenching scream echoed through the area from Eagle’s direction.Without waiting for orders, the former soldiers immediately raised their weapons, aiming in the direction of the scream, their stance alert."Eagle, what’s going on? Report."Lion asked through his communicator. But there was no response."Eagle, do you copy?"Still nothing."Wolf, Tiger, go check the situation." Realizing the gravity of the situation, Lion didn’t hesitate to give orders to two of his men."Yes, sir."Moving at a half-run, the two soldiers kept their weapons trained forward as they approached the forest. But before they could even set foot on the forest’s edge, something inexplicably bizarre happened.Both of their bodies were suddenly flung backward, sent flying dozens of meters before crashing to the ground, their chests obliterated."Oh my god! What happened to them?!"The remaining soldiers could only stare in shock, holding their br
Chapter 145 - A Voice from the Darkness
"What kind of nonsense am I hearing?"The boss immediately turned his gaze toward the source of the voice. So did all the other thugs."Speaking like that... does this person have a death wish?"Seeing no one in sight, they were certain the voice had come from a point beyond the trees, not too far from where they stood."Hey, coward! Step out of the darkness and show yourself!"A thug holding a bazooka in his hands shouted. "If you don't, I'll blow you to pieces with this!"Still, there was no response. At this point, they could have assumed that the voice belonged to some prankster who had already fled in fear.However, these thugs dismissed that possibility. They knew they could not leave any witnesses behind.Anyone who had seen what they had just done, anyone who had witnessed their actions, had to be eliminated—without exception."Eagle, go check it out."Moving his index and middle fingers from his eyes toward the forest where the voice had come from, the boss signaled one of hi
Chapter 144 - You Dead!
"Marc, what should we do now?"With clear panic in her eyes and across her entire face, Harper turned her head toward Marc as the SUV in front crashed into a massive tree trunk."Should we help them?"On one hand, she wanted to check on the passengers in the Peugeot. But on the other, seeing a dozen men in combat gear emerge from three black vans that had stopped not far from the SUV, she knew this situation was far too dangerous for them to handle alone."No, forget it! This is too dangerous!"Harper shook her head, horrified by what she was witnessing ahead. The only thing on her mind right now was calling the police.However, it seemed Marc didn't share the same thought."I'm going to check on them," Marc said. "I can't let the Golden Nirvana fall into these people's hands.""No! What are you saying?"As if ignoring the young woman's concern, Marc stopped the Huracan about two hundred meters from the cluster of vehicles ahead."Whatever happens, don’t get out of the car, okay?" Mar
Chapter 143 - Catch You
"W-what?"Harper's face grew tense upon hearing Marc's explanation. That was the only word that escaped her lips. For a moment, aside from trying to quickly process all the information she had just received, she was at a loss for words."How did Marc do it?" Harper wondered, keeping her gaze locked onto the young man beside her. His face was becoming increasingly familiar to her eyes, as if she never wanted to look away again.She couldn't comprehend how this young man possessed such an incredible ability to sniff out danger. He could detect the smallest details that others overlooked with pinpoint accuracy—something that even the best detectives would struggle to achieve."And even in a situation like this, he still thinks about my safety?"When this realization struck Harper, a familiar warmth returned to her heart—the same feeling she had been experiencing over the past two days. A sensation she had never felt for anyone before.At this moment, that feeling only grew stronger."Is
Chapter 142 - Anomaly
One hour earlier."First lot, sir, please."Marc furrowed his brows as he noticed the guard at the gate smiling warmly at him, politely allowing him to drive the Huracán into the most exclusive section of the Auctionarium’s parking lot."He doesn’t mind that I’m in the same car as Harper? And sitting in the same row, no less?"Retrieving the invitation bearing Harper Winslow’s name from the guard’s hand, Marc remained calm on the surface, but inwardly, he questioned it.Nearly everyone in Wyndham knew who Harper was—and who her soon-to-be fiancé was. Especially at such a formal auction event, the staff would surely be well aware of the identities of every guest in attendance.The guard’s exceedingly polite and composed demeanor only made Marc more suspicious."Shouldn't he at least look a little wary?"A more vigilant guard might have immediately confronted Marc for sitting next to Harper. But this one?Marc flashed the guard a brief smile before driving forward to the designated park
Chapter 141 - The Thugs
Harper couldn’t be sure of anything until she heard it directly from Marc. But if that was the reason, why did she feel a pang of sadness in her heart? As if she had disappointed him.But..."What if Marc had planned this from the beginning?" she thought, trying to ease the guilt and burden weighing on her heart.In other words, had Marc intended to take the ring from whoever won the auction from the start?"No! No! That’s impossible!" Unconsciously, Harper shook her head like a madwoman."Marc wouldn’t think like that!"In her eyes, Marc was a good man who would never steal something that didn’t belong to him."Of course, I have to take it," Marc replied flatly, though his expression grew more serious."What?"His answer shocked her to the core. She had never ever expected her thought would be right."Marc, please, don’t do this."With a panicked expression, Harper reached out and grabbed his arm, trying to stop him. "I’ll contact the Auctionarium’s management and see if I can get th
