Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 203
***** 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

*****“Uhm… sir,” Gideon Hart, the police leader suddenly called nervously as he approached where Darius and Xavier stood.Hearing the hesitant address, both men turned to him and Darius raised an eyebrow, a small frown forming on his face.He could already guess what this was about—an attempt to build a connection with him… his Blackwood family, no doubt.With this thought, a small disdainful look flickered in the depth of Darius’s eyes, and then without hesitation, he opened his mouth.“No offense, but as you can see, it’s already quite late in the night,” he said, his tone flat. “If you want to discuss anything with me, I’d suggest waiting until another day.”“This…” Gideon’s jaw dropped, his face a mix of shock and confusion.“But… I…” he stammered, momentarily speechless before awkwardly scratching his head, then he finally managed to respond. “I… apologize, sir, but I was actually hoping to speak with Sir Xavier.”“Huh…” Xavier and Darius’s jaws dropped upon hearing Gide

*****“This…”Selene, seeing as the six cops who had beaten her husband to the coma were apprehended, handcuffed, and hurled away like criminals couldn’t help but grit her teeth frantically against each other, her eyes turning bloodshot.“Husband, you… you’ve been avenged completely,” she whispered after a moment, her voice trembling as she glanced down at her husband, who was currently resting peacefully against her shoulder in the car.Before she knew it, her vision blurred, tears threatening to fall, and she had to use everything in her to stop them from crashing down when suddenly;“With proper treatment, he should wake up by tomorrow,” a casual voice sounded, breaking the silence, and upon looking, it belonged to Xavier, who was presently studying her husband from the outside.“I…” Selene began, but before she could say more, the tears she had been desperately holding back came pouring down uncontrollably, and then:“Boohoo!!” she exploded with tears, her sobs escalating i
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 206
*****By the time Xavier finally returned home, the first rays of dawn had broken the horizon.It was six in the morning, and the massive, beautifully adorned mansion was silent, the stillness a stark contrast to the chaos of Xavier’s night. His parents, who had waited for him well into the night, had long since gone to bed.With exhaustion laying on him like a lead and barely able to keep his eyes open, Xavier could only drop onto the first couch he spotted upon entering. Sleep claimed him almost instantly—he was far too drained to care about finding his own room.…..“Husband, are… are you really sure I shouldn’t wake him?”A soft, feminine voice abruptly pierced through Xavier’s hazy consciousness, distant but insistent. Before he could process this voice, however;“He doesn’t look good,” the voice continued, this time tinged with worry. “Could he be having a nightmare?”“I think so,” a second voice replied, this one male and cautious but equally filled with concern.Altho
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 207
*****Hearing his mother's worried voice, Xavier's smile wavered, and his awkwardness became obvious."I..." he started after a moment, but he couldn't bring himself to tell the truth, certain that his parents wouldn't be able to handle it. He also doesn't want to lie, and for this reason, his mind raced, searching for a way to change the topic when suddenly, David, sensing the tension, spoke up.“You sure took your time out last night before returning,” He intervened with a light chuckle, deftly steering the conversation away."This..." Laura and Xavier were momentarily stunned. But then realizing what he was trying to achieve, Laura fumed.‘I just want to understand what my son had endured because I can’t bear to watch him suffer alone… is that too much to ask?’ she thought, casting an irritated glare at her husband. David, however, met her gaze with a pleading expression, and seeing this, Laura forcefully held her tongue, quietly deciding to uncover the truth herself.Xavier

*****Xavier couldn’t react for a moment, staring dazedly at his mother.‘Is she serious?’ he wondered, but the determined expression on her face quickly dispelled any doubts.‘She meant every word,’ he concluded and with this, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.“So… because of your in-laws, my sleep doesn’t matter anymore?” he asked bitterly, half in disbelief and half amused.In response, however;“Hmph.” Laura scoffed, grabbing Xavier’s arm and tugging him forward.“You can catch up on sleep later. It’s far too early to start making a bad impression on your in-laws.”“This…” Xavier couldn’t decide whether to chuckle or sigh at her determination, but eventually, he sighed in defeat.“At least let me call the estate management to send over some clothes first,” he pleaded helplessly, and only after hearing this did Laura hesitate.She stared for a moment before snorting and waving impatiently.“Fine, but hurry up,” she responded.With a resigned glance at his mother,

*****“Mother, has the estate sent the dress I asked for?” Xavier, walking out of the opulent, luxurious washroom, whose size rivaled that of a two-bedroom apartment called out, rubbing his damp hair with a hand towel, but then just as he stepped into the room, he froze mid-stride.His gaze locked on the massive-sized bed, where a flashy red suit, glistering with golden gems was spread out, his mother currently smoothening it with visible excitement.“What… is that?” Xavier asked slowly, his voice laced with astonishment, and hearing him, Laura, startled looked up, finally noticing him.“Oh, son, you’re already out!” she said brightly, her grin widening, then as though recalling something, she gestured excitedly toward the suit."This is the outfit the estate sent over—just look at it!?" Laura took a moment to admire the suit, her voice brimming with joy “Isn’t it magnificent?” She inquired, then not waiting for a response, beamed.“It screams wealth and elegance! You’ll look st

*****“Are… you okay, mother?” Xavier asked cautiously once his call ended, noticing his mother staring off into space.“I…” Laura flinched slightly, snapping back to reality.“I am,” she replied, a bit too quickly. But when she noticed the doubt in Xavier’s expression, she sighed and stood up, looking at him seriously.“Son,” she began, her tone firm but caring, “I know you might hesitate to embrace expensive things because of… our financial struggles, but—”“Financial struggles?” Xavier interrupted, his brow furrowing in confusion.“I didn’t mean it that way,” Laura said hastily, her hands fluttering nervously, not knowing how to express herself.“What I mean is that you shouldn’t stress yourself so much or create unnecessary worries. What feels like a stretch today will one day be commonplace. What seems luxurious now will one day feel ordinary, and what feels insufficient will eventually become excessive.”She rose and walked closer to Xavier, her hand resting gently on hi

*****"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
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
