Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 063 – The Excited Parents
*****By the time Xavier returned to the hospital, it was already very late into the night and his parents were already fast slept.‘How I wish I could find a genuine love like theirs, a love that never dwindles, no matter how old we both become or what happens,’ he thought with a sigh, gazing at his peacefully sleeping parents.Xavier sighed emotionally after a second and then he quietly excused them, not wanting to disrupt their sleep.He wandered to the spacious reception area after a moment of thought and took a long chair in the back, lying down on it.Although the hospital policy did not allow people to sleep in the reception, no one said anything to Xavier, given the connection they assumed he had to Grace, the queen of the business world.Xavier, having no idea that he had just broken the hospital’s rules soon fell asleep no sooner had he laid down.…Around 5 – 6 am the following morning, the eyes of Xavier, who had long honed his instinct to the very peak possible su
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 064 – An Attack Plan in The Underground Fighting Club
*****While Xavier was helplessly answering his mother’s endless questions, inside a crowded and rowdy underground fighting club that was filled with disgusting and heavy stenches, a bunch of sweaty gangsters with different sorts of menacing tattoos on their skins stood in agitation, mumbling listlessly to one another.“Silence!” A muscularly built man, who stood on a platform, constantly releasing dark, scary killing intent, who had gathered his men together abruptly barked and in the next instant, the bunch of menacing-looking thugs trembled all over and subconsciously focused their attention toward the platform.Jazzy, whose eyes were still crimson red and burning with pure hatred stared through the crowd below him, after which he clenched his fists aggressively.“I’ve just gotten all the information related to that motherfuk*r who turned my brother into a sudden monk,” he announced with a voice dripping with hatred, madness, and killing intent, and in the following second, all
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 065 – David’s Anger
***** Xavier had no clue that trouble was already knocking on his door; otherwise, he would have hurried to confront it or, better yet, decided to spend the rest of the day with his parents to face it once it arrives, was currently staring at them in a daze. “You—you are handing me the house you were given?” He asked vacantly, struggling to process his present emotions. David and Laura, hearing their son’s question exchanged smiling gazes after which David intertwined his fingers with Laura’s, and together, they nodded their heads to Xavier. "But..." Xavier began, intending to protest, but then his mother gently interrupted him with her kind and soothing voice. “Didn’t the two of us already have a house?” she asked, and before Xavier could reply, she continued. “As your father explained it, the house was given because of you, so it’s only fair that we pass it on to you and your wife, especially since your father and I can't live in two places at once. You wouldn’t want to live i
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 066 – Grace’s Strange Displeasure
*****"Why hasn't he arrived yet?" Grace abruptly mumbled nervously, standing beside her sleek black car.Today, she was dressed in a formal attire of lemon-green palazzo and matching blazer, looking so stunning, like the goddess of the business world she was known for.She glanced around once more, for what felt like the hundredth time, and when she still couldn't spot the person she was waiting for; she began to fidget anxiously."Could it be he has forgotten?" she suddenly wondered after which she swallowed hard. "Or... could—could it be he wants to go back on his word?"A whirlwind of thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant, and each one only increased her tension.Beside her, Dorothy, also elegantly dressed in formal attire, silently observed Grace, momentarily questioning whether this was still the same composed boss she knew—someone who would never lose her cool or panic, regardless of the circumstances. Finally, she sighed inwardly, understanding the reason beh
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 067 – An Office Conspiracy
*****Inside a luxurious, spacious CEO’s office, a majestic elderly man with a head full of grey hair was currently seated on a sofa, his face heavily etched with a frown.Accompanying him was a young man of 22 to 23 years old, excluding an aura of arrogance and superiority, seated in an ergonomic chair behind the executive desk in the office, and a lady of about 25-year-old with an overtly pampered demeanor, seated beside the old man, both of them dolled up in expensive and limited-edition designer wear.The tension in the office was so thick at this moment that if an unrelated person were to enter, they would feel overwhelmed to the core.“Grandfather, are you truly certain that b!tch will surrender this company today?” Mason, unable to mask his anxiety any longer, suddenly broke the deafening silence in the room, focusing his attention on the old man.The old man, upon hearing his only grandson’s question and seeing his hopeful gaze, his lips curved into a faint smile.“Don’t
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 068 – The First Encounter With Grace’s Family
*****“You’re definitely going to love this news!” Honey began, casting an excited glance at Grace after dismissively addressing Xavier, but then a small frown appeared on her face after which she returned her gaze to Xavier.“Is it that you’re deaf or what? Did you not hear me ordering you to get your worthless self out of this room?” she growled harshly, causing both Grace and the previously unbothered Xavier’s eyes to harden immediately.In the following moment, Honey, who was staring at Xavier as though he were not a human being suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on her skin.She was so unnerved by the coldness in Xavier’s eyes that she almost broke down.“You…” She swallowed hard subconsciously in fear, but in the next second, her eyes turned aggressive. “How dare a lowlife entity such as yourself look at me in such a way?!” She barked in fury before looking at her grandfather, acting as though she had been bullied.“Did you see that, Grandfather? It must have been her wh
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 069 – Lucius’s Arrival
*****The inside of the office is so quiet at this moment that if an ant were to crawl by, its sound would be clear for all to hear, and in this suffocating silence, every pair of eyes was currently gaping at Xavier.This lasted for what felt like an eternity before suddenly;“You—you did not just address my grandfather like that, did you??” Honey exclaimed, asking the question on everyone’s mind and jolting them awake.‘This…’ Even Grace was stunned at this moment. In fact, she was the most flabbergasted, never expecting Xavier to utter the bold words he just did.She instantly shot him a chastising look, wondering why he had spoken and just at that moment, a mocking laughter exploded through the room.“I’ve always told you, Father, that we should have expelled this arrogant brat after her father decided to sever all ties with the family. I warned you that her ambition is to take over the entire family and become its leader. Did I lie now?”“She even dared to bring an outsider
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 070 – The Servitude Marriage Contract
*****Despite Grace’s and Dorothy’s attempts to unravel what her family was hatching, their brainstorming yielded zero to no clues.Eventually, Grace exhaled deeply, letting her expression revert to its usual calmness after which she glanced at Xavier.“Let’s go,” she said before turning towards the door, about to leave when;“Bo—” Dorothy raised her hand and started to speak, but Grace, understanding her concern forced a small smile.“I have everything under control,” she assured her, though her tone suggested that she was merely trying to convince herself more than anyone else, but since Dorothy knew there was little to nothing she could do, she forced a helpless sigh before abruptly narrowing her eyes at Xavier.“If you mess this up for my boss again… hmph!” she growled before storming out, leaving Xavier bewildered.‘What a two-faced girl,’ he thought speechlessly before glancing at Grace when he felt her gaze on himself.“Please, don’t mind her,” She said softly, and Xavi

Chapter 341 – What Did I Even Walk Into
*****Right now, the ward felt warm.Way too warm. The kind of warmth that didn’t come from sunlight or cozy conversations but from a tension so heavy it thickened the air.Xavier, the only one seated after being practically forced into a chair, felt this weight pressing down on him, so he sat awkwardly, his fingers lightly tapping against his knee, his sharp eyes flickering between Elliot and his father.The two men stood before him like sentries, bombarding him with an endless stream of gratitude.They thanked him for liberating their neighborhood.For shattering the chains of years-long oppression.For stepping into their chaos like an angel of vengeance and fighting a war that wasn’t his to fight.Their words tumbled over each other, their spits flying as they praised him relentlessly.Xavier, however, could only offer a faint, helpless smile in response.He was the one who had told them moments ago not to be tensed, but…He felt like he was suffocating, why?He wasn
Chapter 340 - Xavier’s Arrival
*****God’s Time remained frozen on his bed, his battered body stiffening as Selene’s trembling words settled like ice in his chest.Although he hadn’t heard what his wife had done, he could already guess what it meant, given that he knew his wife even more than the back of his hand.His heart began to thunder painfully against his ribs, the steady beeping of the heart monitor accelerating.“What… what do you mean?” he rasped, his voice brittle with anxiousness. “What… what did you do?”Selene, seeing what her words had caused clenched her fists, her entire body quivering.Tears began to slowly well up in her swollen, exhausted eyes, shimmering with regret so raw it seemed to swallow her whole.She wanted to take back her actions.To erase it.She wished she hadn’t done it, but…Some things just couldn’t be undone once done.Her lips parted, and in a voice brimming and fractured by guilt, she slowly and tremblingly recounted her actions — the betrayal she wished had never h
Chapter 339 - The Room’s Shock
*****Selene’s question hung in the air like a blade, sharp and unforgiving.Elliot and his father’s heads snapped toward God’s Time, their eyes wide with the same burning curiosity that had plagued them since the chaos had subsided.It wasn’t just a question. It was the question.How could God’s Time, a humble taxi driver with no background whatsoever, know someone like Xavier, and when?He did not just know Xavier—but had him storm through a warzone on his behalf, tearing through cops and the corrupt landlord like they were nothing.It made no sense.Given the sheer power Xavier had wielded—the terrifying strength, the Blackwood connections, the aura of someone who could crush entire lives with a glance—they couldn’t fathom why God’s Time had ever struggled despite knowing someone like that.Why hadn’t he used this connection this entire time?Why had he suffered in their neighborhood for so many years, scraping by under the weight of poverty and abuse?He could’ve lived i
Chapter 338 - God’s Time Disbelief
*****“Huff!”Xavier, in the back of the taxi, who presently had absolutely no idea that trouble was already closing in on him from all directions suddenly groaned, smacking himself on the forehead.“I have completely forgotten about the branch I planned to visit today,” he muttered under his breath, his voice barely audible.Just then;“Are you all right, sir?”The driver at the front, noticing Xavier’s sudden movement through the rearview mirror, abruptly asked with concern, snapping Xavier out of his thoughts.“I think so,” Xavier, after a moment of hesitation sighed, rubbing his temple.Hearing him, the driver gave a small nod and, deciding not to pry further, then he announced;“We’ve arrived at your destination.”“Huh?”Xavier blinked, completely taken aback for a moment before looking outside.He frowned in the next moment.“That was fast,” he murmured in a daze before shaking his head. ‘I must’ve been so lost in thought that I completely tuned out my surroundings,
Chapter 337 – Frosh’s Plan for Revenge
*****Meanwhile, back in the room Vidor had just vacated."Brother." A frail 17-year-old boy with ghostly pale skin suddenly stepped through the door beside the room.One of his arms was intact, while the other was missing, with bandages wrapped around the stump where it should have been, his garish outfit starkly contrasted with his delicate appearance.The instant the brawny, bald man, who had been utterly lost in his thought as he smoked his cigarette heard this voice, his head snapped up.In the following second, the ice-cold, murderous glint in his eyes thawed, replaced by something softer—concern, tenderness, and pure love.“Little bro, I told you to rest. What the hell are you doing here?” he demanded in a voice brimming with concerned anger, rushing over to help the frail young man into a chair.The boy’s crimson-rimmed eyes, swollen from silent and never-ending sobbing instantly locked onto his brother’s face.“I… I just can’t sleep, brother,” he murmured, voice quive
Chapter 336 – Vidor’s Helplessness and Rage
*****As Xavier walked away from Oceanview Estate, his mind churned with thoughts of everything that had just transpired.Then, suddenly—“I think it’s about time I settled the score with them.”He muttered to himself, his voice very low, almost a whisper to himself, but the weight behind his words was undeniable.In the following second, his gaze turned icy, and a murderous aura erupted from him, raw and unfiltered.Jennifer and Victor.He had suffered because of them.Because of her.She had been the catalyst, the one who had set everything in motion.Thinking this, Xavier couldn’t help but clench his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white, the memories of the past coming flooding back—Jennifer. The woman he had once loved.The only reason he had been wrongfully accused and sent to rot away in the scariest prison in the world.But had she taken care of his parents? Looked after his company, his house, and belongings in his absence?No!She had ruined them.
Chapter 335 – Jennifer and Victor’s Terror
*****While the soldier was busy wrestling with his thoughts, still trying to understand the reason behind Xavier’s silence, Jennifer and Victor had been staring at him like hawks, all sorts of speculation running wild between them, each entertaining the same unsettling thought—just what kind of identity could Xavier possibly have?The soldier’s words earlier words had shaken them to the core, forcing them to reconsider everything they thought they knew about Xavier.Jennifer’s heart spiked in her chest.‘Could he really have some sort of an identity we should be concerned about now?’ She wondered anxiously, the mere possibility sending a strong chill down her spine.If true, she was sure the regret would haunt her for the rest of her life.Victor, on the other hand, clenched his fists tightly, his gut twisting in unease.Given his history with Xavier, he understood well that the only way to maintain his peace was to continue staying ahead in every way. If Xavier had managed to
Chapter 334 – Everything Finally Making Sense for the Guard
*****‘This… this wretched b!tch is trying to get me killed!’ The soldier’s mind screamed in sheer panic at Jennifer’s venomous words.Before he knew it, his body stiffened, his face draining of all color as he instinctively turned to look at Xavier, terror etched across his features.“I… I wasn’t talking to you, sir!” he blurted out, his voice quivering with desperation.“Of course.” Victor scoffed with revulsion, mistaking the soldier’s words as a response to him.“Would a pitiful mutt like you even dare to address me with such a tone even if you were paid a fortune to do so?” His voice dripped with undisguised contempt as he ruthlessly cut off whatever the soldier had intended to say.“This…” The soldier froze, momentarily unable to react. But then;“You… you… you…”His hand shot out, trembling badly as he pointed at the despicable pair, his mind failing to piece together a coherent response.He couldn’t fathom how this ridiculous misunderstanding was still spiraling into
Chapter 333 – An Even Greater Misunderstanding
*****‘This… this kind of Misunderstanding!’ The soldier’s lips couldn’t help but part open, only to shut again, and this happened repeatedly, his thoughts spiraling into utter chaos.Why had he discarded his dignity like worthless trash? Hadn’t he done it all just in order to gain Xavier’s favor?Why had he swallowed every ounce of humiliation hurled at him from those two vermin without so much as a protest?Why had he continued showing deference to the couple when it was glaringly obvious from the start that they were nothing but frauds?And yet…With his heart pounding erratically in his chest, the soldier, ever so slowly and uneasily, turned his head… his gaze settling for the first time on Xavier.Xavier was also currently staring at him.But not with anger.Not with ridicule.But with a mildly amused expression on his face.Seeing this, the soldier’s blood ran cold in his veins, and for a second, he couldn’t react, then;‘He…’His breath hitched… his mind shrieking
