Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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’
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 281 - 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 282 – Honey’s Incredulity
*****At first, Honey and Grace had assumed Xavier was merely trying to create division between Honey, her father, and her brother. Honey had even prepared to retaliate, while Grace had decided to stay out of it.However, seeing the current expression on Nico and Mason’s faces, they had no idea of what to think, until finally;“Brother… Father… is it true?” Honey asked cautiously, her voice shaking as her question snapped the father-son duo out of their stupor.For a moment, Mason and Nico exchanged uneasy glances. Then Nico, recovering his composure, quickly shook his head.“Don’t listen to his nonsense,” he said, though his tone lacked conviction—enough to fool even the most gullible.Had Nico denied the ‘accusation’ immediately after Xavier’s remark, Honey might have believed him. But the delayed response, coupled with his obvious discomfort, left her bewildered.She stared at the two for a moment, disbelief heavily etched into her features.“You… the two of you actually re
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 283 – The Receptionist’s Regret
*****Still in the conference room, the tension was palpable.Honey remained frozen, staring blankly as if her spirit had been completely drained. But she wasn’t the only one in shock. Grace, Dorothy, and the receptionist too, were taken aback.The three women knew how deeply Nico and Mason despised Grace, yet their current sycophantic expressions were unrecognizably genuine. It was hard to reconcile this with the duo who had betrayed Grace so effortlessly just moments ago.Grace nearly faltered under their sudden shift in demeanor, but she composed herself and said, “Uncle, cousin, I’ll take my leave now. I have work to do.”Her words instantly made Nico and Mason visibly stiffen, both of them nearly losing their composure.‘This wretched b!tch!’ they both fumed inwardly, their forced smiles barely holding.After a brief pause, however, Nico nodded her head rapidly, looking like a chicken pecking at corn.“Of course, niece. Please go ahead. We’ll continue here,” he said, atte
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 284 – Lucius’s Report
*****“Father!”Lucius abruptly burst out of his car without waiting for it to come to a complete stop, acting as though the world were crumbling around him, his frantic yell echoing through the estate.Bolting toward the mansion, he ignored the Scoan servants, who instinctively averted their eyes, knowing well that this version of Lucius—unrestrained and desperate—was the most terrifying to offend.Without acknowledging anyone, Lucius stormed through the grand halls, slamming open the doors as he made his way to his father’s bedroom.Finally, he entered, and just then;“Who dares?!”A deep, enraged voice erupted from within the room Lucius had just invaded.In the following second, the patriarch of the Scoan family and Lucius’s father, Augustus Scoan, a man in his early sixties sprang upright from his bed, yanking a duvet to cover his nakedness.“Father!”Lucius, ignoring the man’s fury called out again, finally stopping before him.As soon as Augustus saw him, though, his
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 285 – Xavier’s Depart From Sky Group
*****Outside the room, the secretary’s mocking and spiteful voice sliced through the tension like a blade.“To actually think your husband has a prostitute like you as a wife all this while,” she sneered, her words dripping with venom. “And he’s always judged me.”“I…”The naked woman trembled under the weight of the insult, wishing desperately for the ground to open up and swallow her whole. But before she could react;“Not just me,” the secretary continued, her mocking laughter cutting deeper. “He’s judged every single woman he met, calling you the perfect wife—the one who would never cheat, even if he disappeared for a decade or lost everything.”Each word struck like a hammer, leaving the woman pale and defenseless.The secretary seemed to revel in the torment. She had been doing this since the woman arrived, her cruel taunts showing no signs of stopping anytime soon.This continued until suddenly, the door before her was pulled open and Augustus stepped out, his face ste

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
