Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 074 – Xavier’s Offer
*****“Take care of that so-called husband,” Lucius, who had seemed playful, smug, and arrogant a moment ago suddenly commanded indifferently, his eyes icy cold and filled with murderous intent.The bodyguard at the back, as though he had already expected the order hurriedly nodded his head respectfully.“Yes, boss,” he responded without asking any questions, and with that, Lucius entered the car the door held open by a nervous old man.After settling in, he thought for a moment before glancing at his secretary, who sat beside him, pouring his wine.“Attack her company from all sides until she comes to me for a way out,” he instructed, a sinister and cruel smile breaking out on his face.“Consider it done, boss!” the Secretary replied eagerly, her eyes brightening with viciousness, and Lucius, satisfied with her response, sneered.“Once I, Lucius Scoan, set my sights on someone, even if they are goddesses directly from heaven, they will belong to me and no one else,” he growled
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 075 – The Family’s Secret Scheme
***** “Father, we had the perfect chance to push her out just now—why give her another opportunity to fix things again?” Nico, who had been seething since they left the conference room finally couldn’t help but ask once they were inside the elevator. The old man glanced at him for a moment, and finally, a slight disappointment flashed in his eyes as he wondered why his son couldn’t grasp such a simple thing. He let out a small sigh and decided to explain when, Honey, who had been grinning with glee from the side, rolled her eyes at her father. “Grandfather giving her her one last chance wasn’t so she could redeem herself, it was part of the process to get the company back from her,” she reported, but Nico was not convinced. “And what if she comes up with another scheme to sabotage us just like she had always done in the past?” he asked helplessly, and at that moment, the expressions on the faces of the old man, Honey, and the still-enraged Mason darkened. Both Mason a
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 076 – The Unfriendly Visitors In The Hospital
*****“Do you think our son has already registered his marriage with our daughter-in-law?” Laura, whose excitement hadn’t settled since Xavier had left, suddenly asked, and David, who was currently massaging her legs on his lap looked speechless and helplessly at her.“How many times would you ask this already?” he asked exasperatedly, massaging his temples, making Laura‘s face redden.“I just can’t wait to feel like a proper mother-in-law,” she mumbled under her breath with embarrassment, causing David to roll his eyes.“Well, our son has already promised to come here once he’s done, so, there is no need to worry” he advised and Laura nodded her head, however, David, seeing the look on her face that only suggested she only heard but would not listen, smile helplessly.“You…” He wanted to continue but eventually decided against it since he was sure Laura would most likely not listen and soon show her worries again.“I’ll go check if the water’s warm enough,” he said with a sigh,
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 077 – Stereotyped
*****“Do you just deliberately enjoy getting on my nerves or something?” Xavier finally asked, utterly frustrated and helpless, still unaware that his parents had already been captured.In response, Dorothy’s eyes only narrowed, her lips pressed tight as she ground her teeth in barely restrained anger, but she refused to answer his question, instead, she angrily demanded. “What do you mean by what you were saying to my boss?”Beside her, Grace, who has also somehow reverted to being cold stared emotionlessly at Xavier, also curious about what he meant, and finally, Xavier, looking at the two ladies, one with pure detachment and the other with anger, let out a resigned sigh before smiling bitterly.“How else are we supposed to convince your family that our marriage is real if we don’t live together?” he questioned, showing a look of helplessness while deeply aware in his heart that this suggestion was purely for his own case, to convince his parents of the marriage.Grace and Dor
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 078 – Frosh’s Excitement
*****“Could—could you please turn your head to the other side a little bit or shut your eyes?” a beautiful nurse, looking so awkward at this moment finally stammered nervously, after trying in vain to adjust her gown.She had been avoiding saying anything since starting his check-up, doing her best to maintain her professionalism and not to offend the other party, but with Frosh Junior on the bed constantly trying to shamelessly peek under her uniform, she had no choice but to speak up, her voice tinged with dissatisfaction.In the next second, however, Frosh Junior, realizing he had been caught smirked mischievously, not feeling even the slightest bit of remorse.“I like you,” he suddenly blurted out, dumbfounding the nurse, but before she could react, he raised his remaining hand, which had an IV connected to it, and hit the Nurse’s butt, producing a sound that only made him further excited.“This…” the nurse’s eyes widened, and she froze momentarily, but then her eyes redden
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 079 – Receiving The News
Chapter 079 – Receiving The News*****At the same time, in a packed hall, Xavier was staring dazedly as though his spirit had already departed his body, leaving behind nothing but an empty shell, and seeing him like this, both Dorothy, who usually oppose him, and Grace felt sorry for him, but Xavier failed to notice.He remained frozen like this for what felt like an eternity, before finally, he lifted his head, trembling slightly.“You—you said a group of thugs came here and took my parents, claiming to be their friends?” He asked with an unsteady voice, making the director whom he was questioning let out a small sigh.The old man instantly shot a glare at the receptionist beside him, who had allowed the criminals into Laura’s ward, but nevertheless, he nodded in answer to Xavier’s question, making Xavier tremble again.He tried his best to contain himself, but this time, he failed terribly.‘Who dares!’ he growled in his mind, his chest heaving, and finally, his eyes chan
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 080 – Laura & David’s Apprehension
***** Inside the overly crowded fighting arena, with most people currently doing their thing, David and Laura sat with their hands tightly bound, imprisoned in a cage like helpless slaves up for auction. Crouched in the corner, they appeared utterly defeated and hopeless right now. Laura was looking petrified, while David, though equally terrified, struggled to maintain a facade of strength for his wife. Outside the cage, the first Lion King who sat like a ruler, sharpening a blade as though he were preparing to butcher meat suddenly sent a vicious smirk toward the couple, clearly relishing their pitiful state. “Let’s see if that a$$hole son of yours would dare to come and rescue you,” he suddenly said, making both Laura and David glance at him, their heart plummeting to the lowest bottom upon seeing the look on his face. Seeing their reaction, the Lion King chuckled, utterly excited by their helpless and tragic expressions. With this, his voice turned even more malevolent, s
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 081 – Jazzy’s Shocking Revelation
*****For a brief moment, the arena was utterly silent, the air filled to the brim with tension.Unable to react, every person present shuddered all over, feeling the icy, bloodthirsty aura radiating from Xavier, who stood like a grim reaper about to harvest lives.This lasted for a moment before finally, the lips of Jazzy, the only one not affected by Xavier’s presence, who had been observing him curved into a smirk at one end.“Interesting,” he mumbled playfully, his eyes suddenly glinting with a frenzied glow. The following second, his voice broke the trance in the hall, jolting the couple in the cage back to reality.Laura’s face turned a ghastly white, far paler than when she had first heard the fate awaiting her and her husband if Xavier didn’t come, and a wave of sheer terror, stronger than anything she had ever felt before in her entire life, washed over her.“Why—why did you come, why?” She demanded with a cry from within the cage, her voice trembling badly from despera

Chapter 438 – Going For Shopping
*****Although he had already assured his father and he had already accepted, Xavier, however, could sense something lingering beneath his composed exterior.A subtle crease formed between his brows, and his gaze remained distant—thoughtful, perhaps even troubled.“Are you still worried about her background?” Xavier asked, his voice quiet but direct.The question seemed to jolt David from his reverie. He looked at his son for a long second, then let out a slow, burdened sigh.“It’s not that I dislike the little girl’s presence in our life… it’s the other way, in fact,” he began. “But given her history… how fragile her heart is, the trauma she’s been through—your mother didn’t hesitate to claim her as our granddaughter.” He paused, his eyes narrowing slightly.“But what if her other family members come looking for her? What if they think we’ve kidnapped her and filed a police report? Would we be able to get out of it?”That hit Xavier like a splash of cold water.He blinked, mo
Chapter 437 – An Unexpected Topic
*****By the time Xavier finished preparing his meal, the living room was once again filled with warmth and laughter.Sarah had just completed Little Lola’s braid, and the results were stunning.The little girl stood in front of the mirror, admiring herself with such unfiltered joy that it made even Xavier pause.She looked like a radiant soul—pure, innocent… like a tiny princess in a fairy tale.“Beautiful…” she whispered over and over, looking utterly entranced by her reflection.Her eyes sparkled brightly in their sockets with genuine awe as if she couldn’t believe the image staring back was truly her.“Little Lola has never been this beautiful in her whole life,” she said, her voice as serious as a judge delivering a verdict.The adults exchanged amused glances.The words sounded like self-praise, something that would normally come off as vain, but the way she said it—so sincerely and so innocently, it simply melted hearts instead.Sarah chuckled softly, brushing a few s
Chapter 436 – A Moment Of Peace
*****It was already well past noon when Xavier finally stepped out of the bank.The sun was high, the day bustling, but he felt oddly calm like a storm had passed and he’d emerged standing.Without wasting any more time, he hailed a taxi and headed straight back to Oceanview Estate.Villa Number One welcomed him with open arms and warmth that immediately softened the weariness on his face.Inside, a quiet domestic scene played out that made Xavier’s heart lift.His mother, Sarah, was gently braiding Little Lola’s hair, her hands moving with patient care.The little girl, on the other hand, sat excitedly, her legs swinging off the chair, occasionally giggling at something being said.Xavier’s father, David, sat nearby, animatedly telling stories that made both Sarah and Lola smile.For a brief moment, Xavier stood still, soaking it in.The warmth. The peace. The kind of scene he’d always dreamed of growing up.He almost didn’t want to move or speak, not wanting to shatter t
Chapter 435 – A Bitter Awakening
*****Brenda stood still at this moment, her eyes glassy with unshed tears as regret stormed her thoughts.Her mind drifted backward, replaying every decision, every turning point, every slip into arrogance.‘I couldn’t find any proper job for years after graduation,’ she thought, biting down on her trembling lip. ‘I was close to becoming homeless… starving. I couldn’t even afford a loaf of bread, let alone rent or dignity.’Her fists clenched at her sides, her nails digging into her palms as her soul twisted in guilt.‘And when I finally got this job—this opportunity—through a lucky break, I vowed to cherish it. I swore I’d be loyal, that I’d treat it like my life depended on it. That I would never, ever be fired.’She blinked, and the tears finally began to sting her eyes.‘But what did I become after just a few months…?’The reflection tore through her like glass.She looked utterly broken, her once-proud aura now reduced to a shell of defeat. Her confident stride had vani
Chapter 434 – No Redemption Left
*****It had been more than three minutes since Xavier and the manager exited the bank, yet silence still gripped the bank like a vice.No one spoke.No one moved.The echoes of what had just transpired continued repeating endlessly in every mind, like a haunting dream on a loop.The employees stood frozen in place, pale-faced and drenched in cold sweat, while customers remained rooted, too stunned to process anything.And then, there was Brenda—her expression hollow, as the soul had already abandoned her body. Her eyes were vacant, her breathing shallow.She stood there, unmoving, like a statue carved from guilt and shame.Finally… the guards.All of them were still on their knees, unmoving.They had known that Xavier’s wrath was coming and had tried to prepare.They had knelt before him long before he reached them, as they had originally reached them.They'd begged, wailed, and thrown every ounce of self-respect out the window.They blamed the devil.Literally.“It wa
Chapter 433 – One Card, Half A Trillion
*****All blood was pumping fiercely at this moment.Even the customers in the crowd could feel it, as if they too were tangled in the madness unraveling before them.‘He was treated like trash… and in retaliation, he decided to withdraw his savings, knowing that’s enough punishment for the bad treatment he was given?’'No… not just punishment. Something enough to bankrupt an entire national banking system!’People blinked, looking stunned. Their indignation, their pride, their frustration—they’d all come to the bank for similar reasons.Many had planned to withdraw everything from their accounts as a form of protest. They, too, had grievances after all.They were constantly mistreated by the bankers and constantly ignored and overlooked as well, even always getting abused.But now?Now, their actions felt nothing more than children’s tantrums compared to what they’d just witnessed.Even the customer with the largest savings among the ordinary customers began to shrink inwar
Chapter 432 – What Is A Flex If Not This
*****From a young age, Julius had been taught a foundational truth of high finance:Every account has a ceiling—no matter who you are and how limitless your account and card are.Whether you were a high-ranking official or belonged to a first-tier powerhouse, the rule remained unbreakable.Even the legendary families at the apex of global wealth—those whose shadows loomed over economies. It was said they were bound by this limitation.Yes, you could control assets worth billions… trillions, even.Yes, your investments could span industries, continents, and entire empires.But when it came to liquid funds—hard cash—there was always a cap. A regulatory boundary.Julius had questioned this growing up.He had wondered why someone couldn’t just liquidate everything they had. Why couldn’t they simply convert all their assets into cold, spendable cash?The answer had always been delivered in helpless and respectful tones by economic tutors and advisors alike:Inflation. Stability
Chapter 431 – The Account Balance That Causes Commotion
*****They say maintaining absolute silence in a room with fewer than fifty people is easy. Manageable, even.Once the number crosses a hundred, though? That’s where it becomes nearly impossible.Human beings would breathe. They would shift. They would cough, murmur, sneeze, and move without realizing it. Now, multiply that by a hundred, and absolute silence becomes little more than a fantasy.But that law didn’t seem to apply here. Not today. Not in this bank.More than three hundred people were packed shoulder to shoulder within the confines of the main banking hall—customers, employees, security personnel, and even a few passersby who had walked in just moments earlier.And yet…Not a sound.Not a whisper.Not a rustle.Not even the rustle of fabric or the sigh of shifting weight.This wasn’t just silence. This was a… void.It was the kind of unnatural, oppressive stillness that made the very air feel thick and heavy—as though it might shatter if anyone dared to move.
Chapter 430 – The Titanium Account Balance
*****Right now, Julius simply stood there, looking utterly frozen.He stared blankly at Xavier, his anger completely evaporated.His arrogance had withered, and now, only confusion and disbelief remained.‘Is… is he sane?’ he wondered.Who rejects VIP treatment?His brain simply couldn’t process what was happening.….Meanwhile, Gregory stared hard at Xavier, a storm of emotions passing through his gaze.What he had just heard had completely humbled him.There was no arrogance in Xavier’s tone. No flaunting of power. No smug satisfaction. And no ridicule.It was only a quiet principleA principle Gregory had long buried beneath rules and obligations.To be honest, he, too, hated the practice.That’s rightHe hated prioritizing people based on wealth or background, likewise believing that no human being should be treated better than the other, especially when the said human beings were even in their rights.But a rule was a rule no matter what—and unless he was tired o
