Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 190
*****It took only a short moment for the two officers, who had been broken-hearted about their poor luck to realize the task given to them, and with this, their entire being became filled with joy.‘Hehehe… the patient dog does eat the fat bone,’ one of them thought joyfully, the two sending mocking gazes at their four unmoving colleagues and then looking playfully at Xavier for a second, before suddenly;"He’s mine!" the larger of the two, who had wanted to attack Xavier a moment ago, growled, his humiliation from earlier fueling his fury, then not waiting for his partner’s response, he lunged at Xavier, his movements wild and filled with vicious intent.“This…” the second officer became furious and then…“Not if I get him first!” he snapped, charging after his colleague with rage.Perhaps the two were blinded by the lure of the reward or just too stupid, but they never bothered thinking about what had happened to their four colleagues again after the mission had been transfer
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 191
*****For what felt like an eternity, no one was able to react. They stood frozen, staring in a trans, their mouths agape and their eyes almost popping out of their sockets with sheer disbelief.It was as though they were witnessing the impossible—the sight of a corpse that had long been buried and forgotten, clawing its way out of the grave.Aside from the anguished screams of the figure writhing frantically in the dirt, an oppressive silence hung over the scene right now. It felt as though the very definition of sound itself had vanished, leaving the onlookers ensnared in an unsettling, suffocating stillness.This persisted until, eventually;“What... what just happened?” someone stammered, their trembling voice echoing the unspoken question lingering in every mind, and as soon as everyone heard him, their eyes turned to the still expressionless Xavier, their stares heavy with a blend of fear and suspicion.It was as if he were a sort of nightmarish being pulled straight from

*****Still in the middle of the night, within the decaying slum.Although an hour or so had crawled since the fatty old landlord had made his desperate call to his son, no one dared to stir or even whisper. Not the wary neighbors. Not the battered officer nursing his crushed arm. Not Selene. Not a single soul.They continued to stare in absolute silence, the tension in the air pressing down like an invisible weight so palpable that some struggled to draw air into their lungs.However, amidst this smothering atmosphere, Xavier remained calm.He stood motionless, his arms folded across his chest, and his expression unreadable as he watched the arrogant, mockery, and heartless smirk plastered across the landlord's face as if he had no idea what was going through the other party’s mind.To be sincere, Xavier wasn’t even going to the old man a moment ago like the obese landlord and everyone else had assumed.That’s right.While he greatly despised and loathed the old man’s cruelty
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 193
*****"His… son is here—with so many entourages!?! " the neighbors sat frozen in terror, staring dazedly at the commotion caused by the vehicles.This lasted for what felt like an eternity before eventually, a shared instinct for survival took over them and without hesitation, they leaped to their feet in a frenzy, desperate to escape.Before they could turn to flee in different directions, the thunderous roar of the approaching engines extinguished any hope of escape. Then the drivers, showing no concern for their vehicles, charged forward with an air of absolute dominance, as if they owned the world.In an instant, more than five police cruisers and a sleek, intimidating SUV closed in around the crowd.As soon as this happened, the atmosphere grew heavy with tension, and the onlookers felt their breath catch, trapped between their lungs and throats as if the gravity of the moment had robbed them of the ability to breathe.They watched in stunned, fearful silence as the officer

*****No one moved or spoke for what felt like an eternity after Barth had crashed down.Not Selene, not the neighbors crowding the street, not the assembled police officers, and most certainly not the landlord, whose wrathful fantasies of vengeance against Xavier and anyone tied to him had abruptly evaporated into thin air right now.They all remained rooted in place, their eyes transfixed on Barth, who remained trembling on the ground, his entire body quaking as if he had come face-to-face with the embodiment of his worst nightmare.The oppressive silence stretched on, suffocating and unbroken for what felt like an eternity, until eventually, the landlord finally forced himself to return to his senses, then swallowing audibly, he jabbed a pudgy finger at his son, his voice trembling with a mix of disbelief, shock, and nervousness.“Son… are… are you all right?” he stammered, and as soon as the crowd heard him, they collectively leaned forward, their ears straining to catch Bart
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 195
*****“This…” A collective gasp finally rippled through the crowd after what felt like an eternity had passed, shattering the heavy silence as all eyes locked on the old landlord, who remained sprawled face-first in the dirt.“What… what just happened?” Someone stuttered, refusing to believe their eyes.Even the obese old man stayed frozen in shock, to the extent that he wasn’t able to spit out the gritty soil invading his mouth.Although he hadn’t seen the culprit when he fell, the truth now struck him like a cruel joke. It was his son’s foot—his own son’s foot—that had caused his humiliation.‘This can’t be real,’ he thought, his mind whirling in denial.‘My son wouldn’t trip me to make such a huge joke of me!’‘Even if he did, it must not be intentional! Definitely not!’A storm of conflicting thoughts churned in his mind, each more absurd than the last, and this lasted for what felt like an eternity before he finally forced himself to lift his gaze to Barth, expecting some

*****“Just shut the fuck up already, you old fat idiot!”A sudden thunderous roar echoed, shattering the tense atmosphere like a crack of lightning, leaving everyone stunned, their ears ringing from the sheer force of it.“This!” The landlord froze mid-sentence, his words evaporating as an icy wave swept over him, leaving the entire ground paralyzed in suffocating silence. Following this, a collective shiver rippled through the crowd, the oppressive air making even the boldest hesitate.The overweight old man had known the police leader for years and, thanks to his son's influence, he had never received anything from the other party other than respect and favor, the police leader consistently treated him as someone superior in every regard, almost servility, making all his men available at any time of the day, even himself. Yet now...“You… You… you really dare to speak to me like that?” he finally stuttered after a moment of staring dazedly, his voice trembling with disbelief a
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 197
*****Years ago, Barth had lived in constant fear that his secret would be exposed, that he would be asked to account for the resources given to him. But as time passed, and the Blackwoods’ trust in him solidified, his apprehension faded.With no one to challenge him, he grew bolder, redirecting every penny of the resources intended for the needy into his own pockets. Yet, now that he was already certain the Blackwood family had completely forgotten about the charity he managed for them, he was finally questioned.The world seemed to halt as Darius's question echoed, Barth’s confidence shattering with a speed visible to the eyes and giving way to sheer terror.Before he could think of concocting a defense, however, Darius’s voice cut through the heavy silence again.“Additionally,” he said, his tone razor-sharp, “If I recall correctly, my father has been transferring a substantial monthly allowance to you since then—based on your reports—for food and clothing to aid those you cla

Chapter 464 – The Crowd Finally Accepting Their Defeat
*****Everyone stared, slack-jawed from Xavier to Miss Aria, her words echoing endlessly in their minds.Yet, seemingly unfazed, Aria only gazed calmly at Xavier, waiting for his reaction.But...She would be waiting forever, because, as it turned out, Xavier wasn't going to react at all.Of course, Xavier wasn’t a fool.How could he not understand what the higher-ups of High Fashion were trying to do?They were obviously desperately trying to tie down a big fish, unwilling to let the customer who had just spent fifty million dollars walk away scot-free.What stupid "sole control rights"? What "50% off every future purchase"?All of it — every so-called benefit — was just bait to ensure Xavier would make High Fashion his exclusive brand for spending, splurging, and showing off his wealth.However, it seemed Xavier was the only one who immediately grasped this, or... no, everyone else understood it too.They were just simply too blinded by the sheer flex.After all, what ki
Chapter 463 – A True King
*****"The volume of items you purchased is so enormous that… that it will take more than a full day just to pack them. Moreover, we’ll need a long truck to transport everything."Dead silence fell over the room once again, and every heart skipped a beat.'The volume of the purchased items wouldn't even fit in regular transport.'‘If that wasn't the ultimate flex, then what was?’Around him, the women, who moments ago had sneered and laughed, were now gazing at Xavier with hearts in their eyes, their stares practically devouring him.‘So handsome! So powerful!’Daisy, the young lady who had been mocked in the Dior store earlier for not knowing about High Fashion, could barely restrain herself.Her heart hammered wildly against her ribs as she fantasized about throwing herself into Xavier’s arms.Their boyfriends, their male companions, noticed this shift, and their faces turned an ugly shade of green.But none of them dared to voice their anger.Not a single one, because th
Chapter 462 – The Best Form of Revenge
*****Meanwhile, Miss Lin, the elegant Dior’s supervisor.Right now, her face was pale, her usually sharp eyes dulled with regret.She had instantly believed Roxie's story and had suggested Amelia’s firing without a second thought—all because she, too, had assumed Xavier was a pauper unworthy of patience.‘Would things have been different if I hadn't judged him so quickly?’ The thought gnawed at her, biting into her pride, her stomach churning.Yet no tears came. Only a deep, hollow sense of dread.Meanwhile, standing just a few steps away, Aria Wynn—the unflappable supervisor of High Fashion—was no better.For the first time in her professional life, her mind was in chaos.Aria, who had built her reputation on her calm, her poise, and her unshakable demeanor, was now battling the overwhelming urge to simply collapse into a chair.She tried everything to steady herself—deep breaths, mental chants, tightening her fists—but nothing worked.Finally, she gave up.Instead, she s
Chapter 461 – All Pleading For Forgiveness
*****Never in her life had Roxie imagined she would one day kneel down in public, kowtowing, groveling, and begging at someone’s feet—much less offering herself as a servant.Yet here she was.And the worst part?She hadn’t even realized it.If anything, right now, Roxie was trapped in a storm of devastation, pain, and unbearable regret, unable to comprehend how things had spiraled so horrifically out of control.Just some minutes ago, Xavier and his parents had walked into her store of their own volition… calm, polite, and willing to spend their money there.But she and everyone there, blinded by prejudice and contempt for anyone who looked poor, had chased the family of four away as though they were nothing but filth tarnishing the presence of the wealthy ones.And now?Not only had she lost the opportunity to earn a million and a half dollars in commission alone, but she had also thrown away the chance for a promotion she had always longed for—dreamed of.No, worse.She
Chapter 460 – I’ll Act As Your Servant
*****The receipt machine had long since fallen silent, and now the entire room followed suit.‘That’s true,’ everyone thought in unison.If Dior hadn’t turned Xavier and his family away if they had simply treated them with basic respect, that fifty million dollars would have been their sale.The realization hit like a truck and in the next instant, pity welled up among the spectators—not for Xavier, not for Amelia, but for Dior’s boutique because it was their loss.How could they be so blind?But the person almost feeling the most pain?Undoubtedly, it was Miss Lin, the supervisor of Dior’s boutique.Up until now, she had been frozen, stuck somewhere between shame and horror.But now, now that the full implications had sunk in—her face turned ghostly pale.Her mouth opened and closed wordlessly as she stared at Roxie—the very person responsible for this catastrophe."You… you…" she stammered, raising a trembling hand to point at the woman. "What have you… what have you don
Chapter 459 – Shock In The Air II
*****Having been forced to fend for herself since she was old enough to walk, Little Lola knew all too well the value of money.Fifty million dollars, however, was a number too vast for her young mind to grasp.Yet none of that mattered.She didn’t need to understand the math to revel in the moment.She had witnessed how these so-called "adults" had sneered at her uncle, spat venom at her adopted grandparents, and treated them like dirt beneath their feet.Now?Now she was grinning from ear to ear, her little chest puffed up with pride, her cheeks practically glowing as she soaked in the stunned faces around her.Justice tasted sweet, even if she couldn’t calculate the exact price tag.And finally—Miss Aria Wynn, High Fashion’s supervisor.To be fair, although Miss Aria Wynn had remained composed throughout the drama, her elegant posture unwavering, that didn’t mean she was immune to doubt.Even she—sharp, astute, and battle-hardened in the world of luxury fashion had ne
Chapter 458 – Shock In The Air
*****‘Payment successful?’The simple, mechanical phrase echoed like a thunderclap in everyone’s mind, reverberating again and again.Absolute disbelief filled the store.No one! Not a single soul in the room—not even Xavier’s parents had thought the payment would ever succeed.That amount of money… it wasn’t something ordinary people even dreamed of seeing in a bank account. And even if, by some miracle, they had it, who in their right mind would drop it all on clothing?It was the kind of wealth that could elevate a struggling family into the ranks of the upper class overnight.Yet, here it was—casually spent on nothing tangible, but… clothing.The silence that gripped the boutique was deafening.No one blinked.No one breathed.No one even dared to think.The only sound was that of the receipt printer, whirring tirelessly as it spat out a long, seemingly endless ribbon of proof.Proof that none of them could deny.The receipt unspooled like a slow-motion declaration
Chapter 457 – Payment Successful
*****“Mister,” Miss Aria Wynn’s gentle yet commanding voice interrupted. “Are you still interested in completing the transaction?”The question, so casually spoken, instantly landed like a thunderclap in every ear.Everyone, no matter who fell silent again, and then they turned to the poised supervisor, wondering what her intentions were.Ultimately, someone whispered, “She’s… probably just trying to confirm the manager’s theory.”“Huh”The murmur spread, reaching every ear, and enlightenment sparked.The employees of Dior, especially those who had long coveted Amelia’s enviable position, brightened with anticipation.Roxie in particular lit up like a Christmas tree.She had long been watching Amelia from the sidelines, green with envy.While her own role was capped at the level of boutique manager, Amelia, who barely even worked, lived in luxury.Her paycheck? It was five times her own, and yet she never even lifted a finger, never pitched in, and never hustled.It was a
Chapter 456 – Roxie Speculation II
*****All attention veered to Roxie, whose words had taken on an almost theatrical flair.Miss Aria raised a brow, unimpressed but curious. “Please, elaborate.”Roxie’s face lit up like she had just been invited to audition for a lead role.Then, with pride swelling in her chest, she jabbed a finger toward Amelia.“If my thought is correct… which most definitely is, she must’ve noticed how our boutique kicked out this bunch of beggars. So, she’s trying to fabricate an extravagant sale to protect her job.”“Hmmm…” all brows rose, and Roxie continued.“She hasn’t made a single sale since she joined your company. Think about it. If she stages this fake purchase, even if the transaction fails, it’ll look like she’s indispensable, since the price of this purchase is something none had ever achieved before.”Roxie smirked, her voice brimming with smugness.“When the higher-ups at High Fashion see a failed transaction notification for fifty million dollars, they’ll most likely assum
