Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 258 – A Misunderstanding 1
*****Without any introduction, everyone in the conference room instantly recognized the identity of the two powerful figures at the door.In the next moment, the atmosphere grew oppressively heavy as the men’s piercing glares radiated pure venom and rage, seeping into every corner of the room.The room subconsciously froze, everyone’s breathing catching in their throats.Their hearts also began to thud frantically in their chests, echoing like war drums in the suffocating silence.Everyone in the conference hall had expected the Harrison Conglomerate’s representatives to be angry after being kept waiting and ignored—an indignity they had likely never faced before. However, this level of fury? It far exceeded their worst anticipation.It was as though they had murdered the other parties’ loved ones.….Time seemed to drag on endlessly as those in the room were paralyzed with anxiety.The two men at the door also remained motionless like statues, their unchanging expressions
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 259 – Misunderstanding 2
*****Still in the conference hall.Although Lucius’s tone was calm and he appeared as though he wasn’t affected by the suffocating tension in the room, the slight quiver in his voice and wildly racing heart was enough to show his concealed fear.As soon as he was done speaking, all eyes turned to him, but failing to recognize his true state of mind, the group behind him became slightly relieved, some of them subconsciously wiping the beads of sweat that had oozed out of their foreheads.Then holding their breath, they silently began to pray that he would be able to diffuse the volatile situation. and help save their a$$e$.….Back to Lucius.Still unknown to everyone, he was scared.That’s right… incredibly terrified, almost even more than everyone else in the room.He almost immediately recoiled as he stepped forward, feeling the icy, detached gazes of the two men and recalling the terrifying power of first-rank families and their true nature. Yet, he steeled himself, his m

*****Nico stared blankly at his son after hearing him, the weight of his words not fully sinking in until eventually;“What are you talking about?” he asked, confusion and bewilderment clouding his tone.Mason, gathering his thoughts inhaled deeply, steadying himself before beginning.“Father, didn’t you see what just happened?” he inquired quietly, the voices around him not letting anyone else but his father hear him.“The Harrison family had just acknowledged Lucius and his family, and added to the fact that they already had the backing of another first-rank family, doesn’t that mean their future is limitless.” He continued, gesturing around himself, his voice gaining urgency.“Meanwhile, our family’s primary source of income—this company—has just somehow provoked the wrath of a first-rank family, and is on the verge of shutting down. Have you ever wondered how we are supposed to survive after today?”“This…”Nico froze, unable to react for a moment before finally, the impl
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 261 – An Amplified Misunderstanding, Then Shock
*****Surveying the room, Lucius instantly basked in the awe and trepidation reflected in the eyes of the others around him.Ultimately, his gaze found Grace, and then with a playful smirk;‘You didn’t expect that, did you?’ he asked with his gaze, his excitement turning into pure disdain.‘You must be regretting your decisions now, right?’ he also asked quietly, eager to see regret on Grace’s face. However, to his disappointment, her expression remained cold and unreadable as usual.It was as though, what just happened wasn’t something worth a thing.Lucius’s disdainful smirk instantly faltered, replaced by an icy glare, then…‘Let’s see how just how long you can keep up this façade’, he thought bitterly in his mind before turning back to the two higher-up representatives.“Two sirs,” Lucius began again, his tone slick with feigned respect, making the murmurs in the room instantly die down, everyone looking at him.“Sky Group has severely offended my family, and because of
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 262 - An Amplified Misunderstanding 2
*****For what felt like an eternity, silence blanketed the room.The Harrison representatives' words continued hanging in the air like a death knell, leaving everyone stunned. Their minds raced, but they failed to process what they had just uttered.It was as though the room's collective spirit had been stripped away, leaving only vacant stares.Only three people remained composed: the two representatives themselves and then… Xavier.That’s right—Xavier.Unlike the others, he stood tall and steady, like a javelin planted firmly in the ground, a faint, amused smile playing on his lips as he watched the scene unfold.This was the moment he had been waiting for, ever since witnessing the betrayal that had unfolded in the hall prior to the Harrison representatives' arrival.After taking in the room’s shock for a moment, Xavier’s gaze finally shifted to Lucius, curious about his reaction.Just at that moment, Lucius jolted back to reality, his body rigid with panic and anxiousnes
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 263 – Grace’s Emotion To The Opportunity
*****No one in the room considered thinking that the so-called "opportunity" being offered to Grace could be anything favorable.Not Grace, not Dorothy, and most of all, not the other team. After all, who were these two men?They were representatives of the Harrison Conglomerate, one of the most powerful entities in Sky City.Companies and other families would sell their souls for even the slightest association with them. So, why would such a titan waste its time coming over to grant a small company like Sky Group a chance?After jubilating for a moment, realizing it wasn’t as they’d feared, speculations filled the hall.“Could it perhaps be that Harrison conglomerate had taken an interest after her company’s location?”“Maybe they want something in her possession?”“Or perhaps they’ve come to crush her outright...”The murmurs grew louder, spreading like wildfire.Almost everyone assumed that the "opportunity" was simply a polite way for the conglomerate to demand everythi
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 264 – A Funny Misinterpretation
*****For what felt like an eternity, the conference room remained silent.No one moved, instead, their gazes remained glued to Grace as she remained frozen in place, appearing like someone who had just received the biggest shock of her life.‘What could it be?’ they all wondered, their curiosity rose to the peak."Has she been ordered to evacuate her company as soon as possible?""Could the letter be demanding everything she owns in exchange for mercy?"Speculations swirled within the room like wildfire, each more dramatic than the last, until finally, after what felt like forever, a sharp, spiteful voice echoed, shattering the silence.“What do you mean how is it possible?” The voice demanded, startling everyone back to their senses.They all traced its source, only to realize it was directed to Lucius, his mocking smirk currently gleaming with self-satisfaction.The arrogance he exuded at this moment was palpable for all to see, his posture reeking of triumph.Ever since
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 265 – Lucius’s Threat
*****Amidst the murmurs of the representatives, Mason couldn't contain his anxiety any longer.His gaze flickered toward his father, Nico, his expression a mix of frustration and desperation.“Father! Are you not done watching? Are you going to watch until this godsend, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slips away?” he asked urgently, his voice tight with worry.“I…”Nico, startled by his son's words, blinked as though coming out of a trance.In the next moment, he understood what his son was talking about.Following this, his eyes flickered with conflict for a second, hesitation weighing heavily on him.“I…” Nico’s voice faltered as he searched for the right words, but after a long, tense silence, he clenched his teeth in annoyance and then;“Fine! I’ve made up my mind. I’ll agree to your suggestion!” He muttered, the words heavy with unwillingness.Upon hearing him, Mason froze for a moment, processing his father’s abrupt decision.A moment later, his expression brightened

Chapter 443 – High Fashion Sales Representative’s Conflicting Thought
*****At that exact moment, inside the pristine and silent interior of the High Fashion boutique, the sales associate… Amelia stood frozen in mild disbelief, her gaze currently locked on the four individuals who had just stepped through the glass doors.For a heartbeat, she genuinely believed her senses were deceiving her.The familiar chime of the doorbell had rung just a second ago, an event so rare it might as well have been mythical.In the entire stretch of weeks—perhaps months—she’d manned this boutique, the only times the entrance had opened were when she arrived for her shift, or during scheduled inspections from upper management.When the chime sounded just now, her heart had jolted in her chest, and her head had instinctively lifted, her eyes widening in hopeful anticipation. The stagnant air of the boutique had carried a different energy this time—one that made her pulse race ever so slightly.She had been employed here for close to half a year now, and in all that ti
Chapter 442 – High Fashion Boutique
*****“Huh? Don’t tell me my eyes are deceiving me!”Inside the Dior boutique that Xavier and his family had just exited, a loud exclamation shattered the buzzing atmosphere. One of the sales reps stood frozen, her expression twisted in shock and disbelief.Her colleagues instantly turned toward her with a frown, clearly annoyed. “What’s the matter with you?” One of them inquired.“This…” The sales rep pointed toward the glass windows, her finger trembling slightly.“Aren’t those the poor paupers from a moment ago? Don’t tell me they’re actually trying to enter that boutique.”The moment her voice echoed through the store, all heads swiveled sharply toward the boutique’s glass doors. Like magnets, every gaze snapped toward the opposite side of the corridor—toward Xavier and his family.They were currently walking into the High Fashion boutique.Gasps erupted one after the other in the next second.“They’re trying to enter High Fashion? What do they think they’re doing in ther
Chapter 441 – Revenge Process
*****Sarah wasn’t just suggesting they leave. She was pleading. Her voice carried quiet desperation, a maternal instinct to protect her son from further escalation—even at the cost of her pride.It was the kind of voice that forced Xavier to pause. That kind of plea couldn’t be ignored.His chest rose and fell with labored breaths. Every fiber of his being screamed to retaliate, to put every single person in their place. But he swallowed it—barely.Instead, he took a deep breath, locking away the storm inside.His gaze turned frigid as he scanned every face in the room—memorizing them, engraving their expressions into his memory. He would not forget this. Not a single face would escape the reckoning.He turned around.“Let’s go,” he said quietly.And they moved.But the crowd wasn’t finished. Their parting words were even more venomous than before.“Idiots. Delusional morons who don’t know their place.”“Coming here to steal glances, probably to steal garments too.”“They

*****“Did someone call for cleaners?” she asked, her tone dry.The attendant’s colleagues looked equally puzzled. “Cleaners? I didn’t call anyone.”“Did any of you request maintenance or janitorial support?” she asked aloud to the others.A series of headshakes followed.Realizing this, the woman turned toward Xavier’s group, an irritated look of disgust forming on her face.“You heard them, didn’t you?” she said, her tone dipped in sarcasm. “No one called for help. I don’t know which shop summoned you, but clearly, you’ve lost your way.”Her words cut through the air, sharp and dismissive.The moment Xavier heard her, his expression darkened.He didn’t say anything right away, but the glint in his eyes dimmed, replaced by a quiet storm.Sarah and David, on the other hand, immediately felt the heat of embarrassment crawl up their skin. Sarah looked as if she wanted to disappear while David clenched his fists silently.Meanwhile, the innocent Little Lola looked confused, he
Chapter 439 – Did Anybody Called For Cleaners?
*****At present, inside an extravagant compound brimming with a vast array of elite vehicles—sleek sports cars, luxurious sedans, and custom-built SUVs, four modestly dressed individuals stood somewhat out of place, quietly observing their opulent surroundings.The entire space was bustling with stylishly adorned people, many exuding an aura of refined affluence, their outfits screaming wealth and taste.Amid this upscale paradise stood four very out-of-place figures.One, a young man with striking composure and a calm aura, looked unbothered as if the dazzling show of wealth and grandeur around him had no power to stir his heart.He stood with an air of composed indifference, his posture relaxed yet confident.Beside this handsome, refined young man in faded, casual attire, stood an older couple, who looked visibly unsettled.Despite their plain, worn clothing, it wasn’t their faded attire or lean physiques that made them stand out. It was the sheer discomfort etched into the
Chapter 438 – Going For Shopping
*****Although he had already assured his father and he had already accepted, Xavier, however, could sense something lingering beneath his composed exterior.A subtle crease formed between his brows, and his gaze remained distant—thoughtful, perhaps even troubled.“Are you still worried about her background?” Xavier asked, his voice quiet but direct.The question seemed to jolt David from his reverie. He looked at his son for a long second, then let out a slow, burdened sigh.“It’s not that I dislike the little girl’s presence in our life… it’s the other way, in fact,” he began. “But given her history… how fragile her heart is, the trauma she’s been through—your mother didn’t hesitate to claim her as our granddaughter.” He paused, his eyes narrowing slightly.“But what if her other family members come looking for her? What if they think we’ve kidnapped her and filed a police report? Would we be able to get out of it?”That hit Xavier like a splash of cold water.He blinked, mo
Chapter 437 – An Unexpected Topic
*****By the time Xavier finished preparing his meal, the living room was once again filled with warmth and laughter.Sarah had just completed Little Lola’s braid, and the results were stunning.The little girl stood in front of the mirror, admiring herself with such unfiltered joy that it made even Xavier pause.She looked like a radiant soul—pure, innocent… like a tiny princess in a fairy tale.“Beautiful…” she whispered over and over, looking utterly entranced by her reflection.Her eyes sparkled brightly in their sockets with genuine awe as if she couldn’t believe the image staring back was truly her.“Little Lola has never been this beautiful in her whole life,” she said, her voice as serious as a judge delivering a verdict.The adults exchanged amused glances.The words sounded like self-praise, something that would normally come off as vain, but the way she said it—so sincerely and so innocently, it simply melted hearts instead.Sarah chuckled softly, brushing a few s
Chapter 436 – A Moment Of Peace
*****It was already well past noon when Xavier finally stepped out of the bank.The sun was high, the day bustling, but he felt oddly calm like a storm had passed and he’d emerged standing.Without wasting any more time, he hailed a taxi and headed straight back to Oceanview Estate.Villa Number One welcomed him with open arms and warmth that immediately softened the weariness on his face.Inside, a quiet domestic scene played out that made Xavier’s heart lift.His mother, Sarah, was gently braiding Little Lola’s hair, her hands moving with patient care.The little girl, on the other hand, sat excitedly, her legs swinging off the chair, occasionally giggling at something being said.Xavier’s father, David, sat nearby, animatedly telling stories that made both Sarah and Lola smile.For a brief moment, Xavier stood still, soaking it in.The warmth. The peace. The kind of scene he’d always dreamed of growing up.He almost didn’t want to move or speak, not wanting to shatter t
Chapter 435 – A Bitter Awakening
*****Brenda stood still at this moment, her eyes glassy with unshed tears as regret stormed her thoughts.Her mind drifted backward, replaying every decision, every turning point, every slip into arrogance.‘I couldn’t find any proper job for years after graduation,’ she thought, biting down on her trembling lip. ‘I was close to becoming homeless… starving. I couldn’t even afford a loaf of bread, let alone rent or dignity.’Her fists clenched at her sides, her nails digging into her palms as her soul twisted in guilt.‘And when I finally got this job—this opportunity—through a lucky break, I vowed to cherish it. I swore I’d be loyal, that I’d treat it like my life depended on it. That I would never, ever be fired.’She blinked, and the tears finally began to sting her eyes.‘But what did I become after just a few months…?’The reflection tore through her like glass.She looked utterly broken, her once-proud aura now reduced to a shell of defeat. Her confident stride had vani
