Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 236 - I Want You Gone from This Room
*****“This…” Mason’s heart skipped a beat, seeing what his sister was going to do, making panic flash across his face.“Please control yourself, sister,” he pleaded frantically and without a second thought, grabbed Honey’s arm, holding her back.In the next second;“Let go of me!” Honey shrieked, thrashing violently in his grip. “I’ll kill him! I must kill him today!”“I know you must,” Mason responded, still holding Honey back firmly, his expression stricken. “We’ll deal with him, but not here! Don’t let your anger ruin everything we’ve worked for,” Mason whispered urgently into her ears, his grip tightening.Unfortunately for him, however, Honey was already beyond reason, her screams echoing in the room. “I don’t care!” she howled, her voice cracking as she struggled against Mason’s hold.“I must make him pay for this by sending him to his grave today!” Honey screamed, her voice breaking as she fought against Mason’s grip.“This…” everyone stared, not knowing what to think,
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 237 – How Dare You Sent This People To Pressure My Wife
*****‘What has he done now?’ Grace couldn’t help but think, anxiety clouding her usually composed demeanor as she cast a helpless look at Xavier.Although she understood very well that Xavier was only trying to seek justice on her behalf, she couldn’t shake the feeling that he had gone too far this time.While she had secretly enjoyed watching her cousin Honey being put in her place, she had never expected the situation to escalate to the point of her coughing out a jet of blood and even fainting.Despite her dislike for Honey, Grace firmly believed one thing: "Blood is thicker than water." No matter how strained her relationship with her family was, she would never wish harm upon them.This belief had also kept her from abandoning her responsibilities toward them. Regardless of what her grandfather, uncle, or cousins had done to her, she never stopped doing her part and never severed ties completely.With this thought, Grace couldn’t help but send a conflicted and unhappy gaze
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 238 - Lucius’s Response
*****‘What is he talking about?’This question flashed through everyone’s mind, except Lucius, his entourage, and the stunned representatives. Their expressions froze, momentarily rendered speechless, while confusion danced in the others’ furrowed brows.‘So, he really did know something,’ this thought eventually struck the representatives like a bolt of lightning, their gazes darting to Lucius, just in time to notice his eyes igniting with a volatile flame, locking onto Xavier with a look that promised retribution, his teeth slightly grinding against each other.The most dumbstruck of all was Grace and Mason, and right now, both of them remained in stunned disbelief, their faces pale as the realization sank in. They, too, turned toward Lucius, instinctively waiting for him to speak.Shocked beyond Grace, however, was Mason, who had been adamant about blaming Grace for the partner companies’ action, refusing to accept that she hadn’t colluded with them in sabotaging his shot at
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 239 - Lucius’s Scheme Revealed
*****Everyone had assumed that Xavier would be trembling with fear, shaken to his very core after the near-close-to-death encounter he just had.But contrary to their expectation, he just stood there, calm and collected, an amused smirk playing on his lips.Not only did he remain unfazed as though everything had been in his control from the beginning, but he even had the audacity to chuckle, a sound that sent a ripple of disbelief and astonishment through the room.Mouths opened in shock, but before anyone could think of a reaction;“I saw what you did there,” Xavier broke the silence in the room, his tone light and almost playful, completely defying every expectation.“You’re trying to gaslight me, aren’t you? You want me to second-guess my instincts, right?” he continued, his words biting yet casual. Then, with this, he leaned lazily against the wall, his nonchalance a stark contrast to the tension that had seized the room.“What is he talking…” One of the representatives mu
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 240 - Mason’s Options To Grace
*****Mason’s eyes burned with newfound intensity after his father’s sharp words sliced through his earlier confusion and then very slowly, realization dawned like a storm clearing the skies, leaving him feeling both invigorated and embarrassed.Ultimately;‘Ah Mason!’ he scolded himself inwardly, almost smacking himself on the face as he recalled his recent thought. ‘you’re still the naive fool who can’t distinguish friend from foe.’With this, he snapped to his senses, and without hesitation, his gaze fell on Xavier, cold and calculating.“You know,” Mason began suddenly, his voice ringing out like a whip crack and jolting everyone in the room. “You’ve been spouting nothing but pure nonsense since you walked in here.”“Huh?” Everyone immediately gasped, their brows furrowing in bewilderment.Because Mason’s conversation with his father had been conducted in near silence, no one in the room knew what had happened, so, hearing the sudden words from Mason, who should have been b
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 241 - The Room’s Disbelief
*****“What kind of options are these, for crying out loud?”“Since… since when did cutting off a head become the cure for a headache?”“Would he not be harming his own family more by selling off their main source of income?”“How could he even think of such a second option in the first place, let alone propose it?”“Is he trying to force his cousin’s hand here or ruin his own family?”The murmurs of the representatives filled the conference room at this moment, disbelief heavily etched into their faces, finding it extremely difficult to wrap their heads around Mason’s audacious declaration.In their shock, they forgot themselves entirely—forgot even the looming presence of Lucius, who was often a figure too fearsome to ignore.Well, even Lucius himself wasn’t faring much better than the representatives right now.That’s right.He sat frozen, his sharp eyes locked on Mason as if seeing him for the first time.His shock mirrored that of the room, having never expected Mason
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 242- The Two Cunning Choices
Chapter 242- The Two Cunning Choices*****‘He… he does not care?’‘How could he not care?’A whirlwind of disbelief churned away in Grace’s mind right now, trying everything she could to process her grandfather’s words.She hadn’t merely assumed the old man would care about his wife’s creation on a whim.No.Her belief that the old man would have chastised Mason for speaking about selling off the company had been rooted in the countless moments of love, care, and devotion she had witnessed him show his wife when she was alive—how he had always placed her needs above his own. And yet now...Grace remained seated motionless, her world crumbling very slowly before her. Everything she had thought immutable about her family’s legacy had been overturned in a single moment.Meanwhile, across the room, Mason and Nico also remained standing, their expressions betraying a mix of surprise and calculation.They had also shared Grace’s assumptions about the old man’s stance, and to be h
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 243 – A Pitiful Grace
*****Right now, Grace’s mind was a battlefield, both chaotic and relentless.That’s right.On one side was her life's work—Sky Group—an empire she had built with her blood, sweat, and countless sacrifices. The company wasn’t just a business; but her passion, her identity, and the only thing her late grandmother had entrusted to her. But standing in her way was Lucius, a man she loathed, someone who would undoubtedly turn her life into a nightmare if she married him.On the other side, however, was Xavier, the man she had married impulsively to escape Lucius—a man, who had somehow become tied to her as her first.Of course, the best choice for herself was already obvious: don’t marry Lucius. But this present situation, however, wasn’t just about her preferences alone.Apart from the company being the family’s major source of income, it was everything to her, the very essence of her purpose. So, could she risk it for her own happiness, talk more of a man?The answer was clear, a

Chapter 282 - Honey’s Disbelief
*****Honey had just awakened from her faint after having a deep, peaceful sleep, and the first person her eyes encountered was the aloof and frostily detached Grace.So, without pausing to consider what she might have missed and how long she had been unconscious, her fury reignited.Before her eyes opened, he had thought Grace’s marriage would have already been finalized and she would have moved to start her new life of hell and torture, yet… she still dared to be in the same room with her, with that frosty and aloof demeanor she hated the most.On the other hand, the room, hearing Honey’s spiteful question continued staring at her in stunned silence, all of them having entirely forgotten her presence until now.What even took them several times greatly aback was Honey’s first behavior upon returning to his senses, and several people wondered if she was just acting or hadn’t really realized the new change of power and authority.….The expressions on every face at this moment
Chapter 280 - Lucius Rage
*****A sleek, luxurious car sat silently in the parking lot, its elegant design and calm exterior betraying the storm raging within.Inside, the atmosphere was anything but serene right now.The air felt extremely thick, as though an invisible weight was pressing down on everyone within right now.Each breath was labored, the tension so suffocating that it seemed to consume the very oxygen in the space.The pressure was so tense that it materialized into frost that clung to the windshields, making it look as if winter had suddenly descended inside the vehicle.Four people occupied the car—two in the front and two in the back.Yet, three of them dared not make a sound, feeling the charged, almost electric sensation filling the air and pricking at their skin like tiny needles.The poor old driver’s face was a mask of anxiousness, fear, and confusion, his thoughts swirling with unanswered questions.Beside the driver, the bodyguard’s eyes burned with fury and killing intent, hi
Chapter 279 – Honey Finally Awakens
*****The representatives stared at Grace in despair, their faces etched with terror after hearing her words.They could tell she wasn’t bluffing, and this… it made several of them struggle to breathe, as though their very lives were slipping away right away before their eyes.How were they supposed to report this back to their companies?What report were they supposed to give when they had been strictly instructed before leaving their respective organizations to only apply pressure on Grace and the Sky Group?They had been repeatedly cautioned not to make the termination of the partnership possible. Instead, they were only told to continue pressing Grace until she eventually caved to Lucius’s demands, and this way, they’d achieve two goals at once: completing Lucius’s goal while still maintaining their partnership with Sky Group. But now…They had recklessly taken matters into their own hands, doing exactly what they had been repeatedly warned against.…The representatives’
Chapter 278 – Lucius’s Furious Exit
*****Grace had never anticipated a conclusion like this.Not even once, why? Because Lucious wasn’t someone anybody in the room dared to offend.Without knowing what to think, she continued gawking at the room like a fool, her mouth remaining agape for what felt like an eternity.It was as though a heavenly force had suddenly sown discord, havoc, and animosity amid her adversaries, all of them clashing with one another in front of her instead of targeting her.This continued like for what seemed an endless stretch of time before suddenly;“You all!”Lucius, the most shocked in the room finally snapped back to reality and snarled, pointing an hysterically trembling finger at Mason, his father, and the group of delegates.In the next moment, the group of delegates, the former receptionist, Nico, his father, and Dorothy’s hearts trembled, a menacing aura abruptly radiating from Lucius, instilling fear in them.Although Lucius wasn’t that formidable, just even an E-ranked fighte
Chapter 277 – Ganging Up Against Lucius
*****For a heartbeat after seeing where Grace’s finger was pointed, the room was frozen, everyone seemingly caught in a suffocating stillness.It did not even look as if the representatives had heard Grace’s disappointing response to them,Their blank stares remained fixed on Lucius, as if in a trance, processing Grace's final words.Meanwhile, Lucius remained frozen, his thoughts spinning wildly. Grace's unexpected gesture—pointing at him and directing the representatives to meet with him—had left him completely paralyzed with shock.This silence, however, didn’t last for long when suddenly;“You’re the real culprit here!” A venomous voice cut through the oppressive quiet, its force akin to a whip cracking in the air.Everyone instantly turned toward the speaker, startled. And very surprisingly, it belonged to Nico.“This.”A wave of shock swept through the room at the sight before them, while Grace's face froze slightly, her disbelief matching everyone else's.Nico, who h
Chapter 276 – Grace’s Vengeance Heart
*****Grace’s initial reason for accompanying the Harrison representatives in the first place had been simple: a courtesy and a gesture of professionalism.But there was another motive, an unspoken and deeply personal one—a quiet hope to glean even if it’s the smallest hint about the reasoning behind the Harrison Conglomerate’s baffling decision to favor Sky Group out of the hundreds of more qualified companies out there Yet, her efforts yielded nothing.Instead, the representatives stood firm in their original statements, insisting without hesitation that it was because only her company deserved it, offering no further explanation beyond that.However, what Grace couldn’t ignore was their demeanor. The instant they stepped out of the room, the two representatives began to treat her with an almost reverential respect, one that felt entirely out of place given Sky Group’s standing relative to the monolithic Harrison Conglomerate.At first, she thought it might have been a tric
Chapter 275 - The Room’s Regret
*****Initially, everyone had thought they knew how the Harrison representative's visit would end.But this... not even Grace or Dorothy, despite their efforts of optimism had seen it coming.They had all assumed the Sky Group’s doom was sealed. That by the time the representatives departed, Grace would have been in ruin—her empire dismantled, her future destroyed beyond repair. And yet… Everything was contrary.A long moment of deafening, suffocating silence continued enveloping the conference room after Grace and the representatives vanished.The air was thick with disbelief, its oppressive pressure nearly tangible, weighing heavily on everyone.Every eye was wide, breaths were held, and the entire room was frozen in suffocating silence.None of them—least of all Lucius and his accomplices—couldn’t accept everything that had unfolded.Hadn’t they betrayed Sky Group in their desperation to align with the Harrisons?Hadn’t they dissolved every contract, severed every tie, and
Chapter 274 – The Two Representatives Depart
*****“This…”Gasps rippled across the room, every person staring in stunned disbelief.Lucius Blackwood—the embodiment of arrogance and wickedness. The untouchable tyrant, who had always acted as though he was above the entire world—was currently… groveling on the floor.This realization hit everyone hard dumbfounding them to the core.However, before the shock barely had time to settle, the loud sound of gulp echoed within the room, breaking through the tense atmosphere and drawing all eyes.It was Mason, and right now, he stood frozen, trembling as though trapped within an icy prison.The representatives also turned their gazes on him, their cold amusement laced with disdain.“You too,” one of them said, pointing directly at Mason. “Without verifying the truth, you made such a cruel suggestion, even daring to call me a stupid actor.”The words were a hammer blow, shattering whatever composure Mason had left.In the next second;“This… this is the devil’s work, sir!” he b
Chapter 273 – Lucius’s Apprehension
*****‘This…’The room became deathly silent momentarily, Mason’s words echoing in the air before finally, all eyes shifted to the patriarch whose expression was still unreadable.Even the two representatives were taken aback by Mason’s suggestion, unable to believe their ears.‘Apprehend us?’ Their minds repeated, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.Ever since joining Harrison’s Conglomerate, this is the first time in their lives to hear such disregard.They stared in a trance, while Nico.Having no idea about the part his son was headed, he only hesitated for a brief second before ultimately leaning closer to his father, his voice low but firm."Father… now isn’t the time to hesitate," he urged, his eyes bright.Instantly, the old man’s gaze turned icy, locking onto Grace.Initially, although he hadn’t entertained the possibility that the two representatives were impostors. Instead, his mind had been in complete blankness, struggling to process the sheer magnitude of the
