Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 196
*****“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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 198
*****The uproar continued until it reached its peak, and just then, Darius raised a hand. Gradually, the shouting quieted as if a switch had been flipped. The crowd’s intense fury then focused on their fiery gazes, fuming as they glared at the father-son duo.“You’ve heard them, right?” Darius said coldly after the place was completely silence.“All these years, my father has sent resources for renovations. Yet this place looks like it hasn’t been touched in centuries, and even pigs would reject these conditions, so, tell us, where is the estate, I want to visit it myself and see the condition there?”He asked, his words sharp as a dagger, cutting through the pretense, and at his question, Barth and his father both slumped in unison, their spirits seemingly crushed by the weight of their guilt.For a moment after, an eerie stillness fell over the street, so heavy that everyone felt suffocated, but other than the father-son duo, no one noticed.This continued for what felt like

***** "Argh!!!" "This is Death!!!" "Mercy!!!" "Spare us!!!" The relentless, blood-curdling screams cut through the dark night, each wail raw with agony, sounding as though the owners' skin were being peeled with the blunt edge of rusted blades, each cry piercing the hearts of those who dared to listen, stretching time into an unbearable eternity. Only when the voices began to weaken, however—breaking into shallow, rattling gasps—did the savage mob finally begin to hesitate, the fear of murder creeping in, forcing their rage to simmer. Yet, by then, the arrogant, overweight father and son were unrecognizable. Once clad in luxurious, expensive clothes, they now lay sprawled like grotesque parodies of their former selves, their clothes torn and soaked in blood, grime, and sweat, while their swollen faces and brutalized bodies looked almost inhuman. Despite the brutal beating—enough to have sent most to their graves were it not for the duo's excessive bulk—the mob’s
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 200
*****While the police leader was scheming to forge a connection with Xavier, the neighbors stood frozen, disbelief etched onto their faces as murmurs of astonishment rippled through the crowd, the undeniable truth settling upon them that Xavier was far more than any of them had ever imagined.This realization struck Selene hardest of all, making her mouth continue hanging open in shock, her wide eyes nearly bulging from their sockets as she stared at Xavier, a whirlwind of questions racing through her mind.‘How could my husband, who I believed to be an ordinary man, know someone like him?’‘Why did he let us suffer for so long under the landlord's thumb if he had a connection like Xavier?’‘And why... why did he keep this hidden from me?’Different thoughts like this continued swirling in her mind for what felt like forever until suddenly, it gave way to something darker, and before she knew it, guilt twisted like a dagger in her chest, the memory of her betrayal of Xavier sur
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 201
*****Xavier’s disinterest in determining the punishment for the father-son duo was apparent in his calm yet loaded response. However, anyone sharp enough to read between the lines would have caught the true meaning behind his words.And Darius, given that he was a man of formidable intellect, understood this all too well, and as soon as this realization dawned on him, fear crept into his face, particularly seeing as every single pair of eyes burned with anticipation, watching him, waiting for him to act.Swallowing hard, Darius hurriedly shifted his gaze back to Xavier, only to see that same calm, emotionless expression that hadn’t changed—unfazed and utterly unreadable on his face. Seeing this, Darius clenched his fists.“What a cunning brat,” he thought bitterly, perfectly understanding that Xavier had set a subtle trap for his family.That’s right.‘He most likely believed my family would assist those two gluttons, and because of that, he set a trap for us—a trap that could
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 202
*****For a brief moment after Darius’s command sounded, time seemed to stand still, the crowd staring at him, wide-eyed and dazed, struggling to process his words.Although they had expected Barth and his father to face punishment, but this?While the others might not know, those who had borne the brunt of the father-son duo’s reign of terror knew all too well the extent of their cruelty. The nightmares inflicted on them were unspeakable—treatment so horrific that no one would wish it upon even their worst enemy. Yet Darius had just declared that Barth and his father would endure three times that suffering.The stunned silence stretched on, thick and oppressive for what felt like an eternity, until suddenly:“Sir, are… are you really sure this punishment will be carried out?” a frail, one-legged middle-aged man stammered nervously from the crowd, and upon hearing him, all eyes turned toward Darius, their gazes filled with equal parts hope and fear.It was clear that they were

***** The silence following Elliot’s words lasted for a long time before suddenly; “Nonsense!” A sharp bark echoed, shattering the silence like a piece of glass. It belonged to one of the officers, his face currently red with anger, and upon seeing every gaze focused on himself, he growled. “It was clearly Master Darius who helped you all! How dare you give credit to someone else?” He demanded angrily, and upon hearing him, the police leader stiffened, visibly uncomfortable with the outburst. He opened his mouth to chastise the officer, but before he could, however, the crowd erupted again—this time in defense of Xavier. “Do you think Master Darius would’ve come here without this man?” “Sir Xavier was the one who got the call for help!” “Sir Xavier didn’t even care how powerful Barth and his father were—he came and fought for us!” Without bothering to hide their intention or showing even the slightest tinge of fear, voices rose one after the other, each re

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
Chapter 455 – Roxie Speculation
*****An overwhelming silence enveloped the boutique at this moment, thick enough to strangle breath.No one could utter a word after hearing Xavier’s old declaration.Not the customers from Dior who had eagerly waited to see the destitute Xavier and his parents humiliated.Not the staff of the Dior boutique who had ridiculed the family nonstop with brazen disdain.Not even Miss Lin, Dior’s supervisor, whose proud demeanor was suddenly frozen in time.Not the intrigued bystanders, whose whispers had faded into oblivion.Not even Miss Aria Wynn, the poised overseer of High Fashion, known for her unshakable composure, found her voice.And certainly not Amelia—who, despite never looking down on Xavier, had never once believed he could possibly command such astronomical wealth.Yet among them all, the ones most deeply rattled were none other than…Xavier’s parents.Barely a week ago, they had been scraping coins together, often skipping meals to survive the day.Yet now, their s
Chapter 454 – Here, Make The Payment
*****Roxie gave a detailed report, claiming that after she kicked Xavier and his parents out of her store, they went into the High Fashion boutique, tried on several dresses, and Amelia irresponsibly entertained them.She claimed she had gone to the High Fashion store out of goodwill, to warn Amelia about the kind of people Xavier’s family were, and yet, instead of being thanked, she and everyone who had gone out of goodwill were rudely insulted.Roxie twisted the truth with practiced ease, flipping the entire narrative in her favor. She painted Xavier and his family as swindlers, and Amelia, the sales attendant, as an enabler of criminal behavior.By the time she finished her story, many of those who had been present during the incident stared at her, dumbfounded.They knew the truth, and it was far from what Roxie had just reported.Yet, not a single one of them spoke up.Instead, after staring at her in a daze for a moment, they smiled brightly and supported her tale, eager
Chapter 453 – Roxie’s Report
*****Outside the luxurious boutique of High Fashion, the sidewalk was brimming with anticipation.A crowd of over fifty people gathered in a loose semi-circle, yelling and shifting, their expressions ranging from curiosity to outright impatience.Every passing second added fuel to their restlessness.Ultimately…“Hey you….” One sharply dressed woman snapped suddenly. “You said your supervisor and High Fashion’s supervisor were already nearby.” Her arms crossed tightly, and her lips furrowed into a scowl. “It’s been over ten minutes already. When exactly are they supposed to get here?”All eyes immediately turned to the person the woman was accusing—the Dior manager, who had unintentionally become the spokesperson for the growing crowd.The manager winced.The question had been direct, but the tone… the pointed, condescending tone—was what cut deep.The manager’s brows twitched in the next second, and her jaw clenched, but she forced herself to remain composed.She wanted to
Chapter 452 – Xavier’s Plan
*****“Apologies,” she said, her voice level, respectful, yet firm. “But I believe this is the High Fashion boutique—not Dior, and certainly not under anyone else’s jurisdiction. If you are not here to explore or make a purchase, I kindly ask that you leave.”Her words were like a pin dropped in a lion’s den, and silence fell. The kind of silence that pulses just before an eruption.Just at that moment—“You… you dare speak to me like that?!” someone growled. A woman in a glittering red dress, decked in gold and loud perfumes, stepped forward with fury in her eyes. “Do you even know who I am?!”That was all it took.The crowd exploded, and in the next second—“How dare she talk to us like that!”“Who does she think she is?!”“She’s just a lowly shop worker!”“Let’s see how smug she looks when she’s out on the streets!”They hurled curses, threats, and venom at Amelia. Some called her an idiot, others called her names. But through it all, Amelia stood tall, her smile never w
