Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 114 – The Never Expected Ending
***** “Please forgive me!”Bang!!! Edgar cried out and then slammed his head against the hard ground like someone who had lost his mind, sobbing hysterically. “Please forgive my ignorance and stupidity!!!”He began to plead desperately as though his life depended on it, knowing that he couldn’t afford to lose this job.He had already gambled everything… his entire life on it.Before this moment, Edgar hadn’t even been bothered at all by his previous actions, even still thinking he had done only the right thing for his future development. But now…He knew he wouldn’t have what it takes to live again as he had already arrogantly severed all ties with everyone he had ever known—Friends, colleagues, superiors. Even his wife and children, thinking they would only drag his progress and divine grace back.Before being called into the office the previous day, he had still been the loving father and husband… joking with his colleagues, and showing respect to his boss just as he always
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 115 – The Inside of Oceanview Estate
*****Even though the Audi A6 had already passed through the towering wrought-iron gates adorned with symbols of power, affluence, and grandeur, marking the entrance to Oceanview Estate, the interior was eerily quiet.After all the emotional turbulence and clashes they’d faced just beyond the gate, it would have made sense for them to be lost in conversation, reliving every moment. Yet, what filled the car was a profound, almost reverent silence.Everyone—from Dorothy in the driver's seat to her boss beside her, Grace, to Xavier's parents at the back, and even Xavier, who was normally the embodiment of calm—sat as if frozen in time, each person’s mouths widely open enough to swallow a swarm of bees, but none of them noticed.Right now, they all looked like villagers who had spent their entire lives in some remote, underdeveloped countryside, suddenly transported to the heart of a dazzling metropolis—seeing wonders they never thought were possible in their lifetime.While they had
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 116 – A Home For All
*****It took a moment for everyone to return to their senses after hearing Xavier, finally closing their mouths when they realized they were on the verge of drooling.“You… this…” Both Laura and Dorothy muttered in unison, finally processing their son’s words and their jaws dropped.While they hadn't fully understood why their son had brought them to the home that was supposed to belong to him and his wife on the day of his marriage, they had assumed it was simply to show them the place, never expecting in their wildest dreams that it was so they could leave together.‘Does he even think about his wife?’ They thought and the two subconsciously exchanged stunned glances.Although they could see the admiration in each other's eyes, knowing full well they both loved the villa, there was also a silent understanding between them—a hesitation.Deep down, they recognized that, as beautiful as this place was, it wasn’t meant for them.Realizing they were on the same wavelength; the co
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 117 – Dorothy & Grace’s Embarrassment
*****"This... are you... are you truly the owner of this mansion—Villa Number One?" After a long pause, Dorothy, finally unable to contain her shock, confusion, and question again stammered, breaking the silence that had enveloped the three of them.Xavier, hearing the question, turned his head and stared at her for a moment, as if processing the inquiry.His expression remained blank for a moment until suddenly, a mischievous grin slowly spread across his face, followed by a lighthearted, playful chuckle"What do you think?" he asked teasingly, winking mischievously at Dorothy, but then not waiting for her to respond, he recalled something and instantly continued, smoothly changing the topic with his tone remaining playful and his voice laced with amusement."Don’t you think this place is far too shabby and insecure for someone as important as your boss?" he asked and in the following second, both Dorothy and Grace were left speechless for a moment, staring dazedly at Xavier, u
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 118 – Nico’s Report
*****“Father, I have something urgent to report to you,” a rather distressed and confused Nico abruptly declared as he entered the secondary living room of the Sky family estate, which although a luxury on its own by lower family standards, the room seemed dull and ordinary compared to the grandeur of the first-rank or even the second-rank families that have first rank families as their backer.The old Patriarch of the Sky family, who was lounging lazily in a recliner while sipping his tea and watching the news immediately shifted his gaze to the side upon hearing his son’s tense voice, a frown appearing on his aged features.“This has something to do with that little wench, right? Has she brought trouble to the family again?” he inquired in a gruff tone, suspicion lacing his words, and as soon as Nico heard his question, he hurriedly nodded his head but then shook it again after what felt like another thought.“Huh?” the old man’s frown intensified in confusion. “What’s the mean
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 119 – The Father’s, Son’s Cunningness
*****“This...” Nico’s expression couldn’t help but grow grim upon noticing his father’s reaction to the report.He had never heard of the Bloodfang group before today, yet, seeing his father’s current response, it was clear that the organization wasn’t an unknown one as he had initially assumed, but something scarier, probably than Nightshadow.‘But why is there no record of it anywhere though?’ he pondered for a moment before pushing the thought aside and refocusing his attention on his father.“Do you know them, Father?” he asked gravely, startling the old man from his thoughts.‘This...’ The elder man swallowed hard, realizing that his back had become unconsciously soaked with cold sweat. It was as though he had just heard of the most terrifying and dangerous group to ever exist.Letting out a deep breath, he focused his gaze back on Nico. “No,” he replied, leaving Nico unable to react for a moment after which his jaw dropped, looking perplexed. He had never expected this re
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 120 – Almost Caught By The Parents
*****Laura and David couldn’t believe their ears for what felt like an eternity, staring in a daze at Xavier as though he had just delivered the worst news to have ever existed.While the two had sensed that something didn’t seem quite right with Xavier and Grace’s sudden marriage, they had never anticipated that the two would part ways so quickly—on the very day of their wedding, not even waiting for a day or two.After a brief moment of silence, Laura finally managed to process Xavier's report and in the following second, she seemed to have suddenly experienced a panic attack.Her breathing grew rapid and her chest started heaving hysterically up and down, as though she were on the verge of departing with the grim reaper and joining the underworld, and seeing this, both Xavier and David were instantly alarmed.“Wife!!!”“Mother!!!”The father-son duo cried out in distress, rushing over to Laura.“Are you okay?” they both inquired, their concern evident, and only then—hearin
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 121 – Grace & Dorothy’s Conclusion And Concern
*****“Boss, are you really going to move in with tha... with him?” Dorothy's voice, though barely above a whisper abruptly shattered the silence in the Audi A6 as it sped away from the stunning Oceanview estate.She had been forcing herself to hold back the question, but now, she couldn’t keep it in any longer, and as soon as Grace, sitting in the back seat, with her countenance already returning to the cold goddess of the business world known by everyone, heard this question, she was jolted back from her thought and glanced briefly at Dorothy in the driver’s seat, then turned her gaze back to the passing scenery outside the window.“Hmmm.” She responded indifferently before returning to being lost in her thoughts again.….What he said earlier was nothing but the truth,’ she thought, her brows knitted together. ‘If we live desperately, grandfather and his relatives will soon see through our marriage, and the troubles will never end,’ she sighed inwardly.In truth, Grace had al

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
