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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 286 – The Sky Patriarch’s Intention
*****Currently, within a moving vehicle, one that was occupied yet eerily quiet as if devoid of any soul, Mason’s family sat, each member’s brows deeply knitted.The tension in the car was stifling at this point, yet nobody noticed it.Instead, every person was utterly absorbed in their thoughts, their expressions heavily laced with grimness, sadness, incredulity, and resentment, which was utterly different in comparison with the smug confidence they had worn that morning.Over twenty minutes had already passed since they left Sky Group, yet no one had uttered even the faintest sound. It was as though they had just received profoundly shattering news from where they were coming.This oppressive silence stretched on endlessly like this for what felt like an eternity, or so it seemed, until finally:“What if she’s determined not to share this life-changing opportunity with our family?” a hoarse, uneasy voice suddenly rang out, shattering the suffocating silence like a shard of gl
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 287 – I Want Him Taken Care Of
*****For a long moment, Nico and Mason sat there, staring at the old man in stunned disbelief, their mouths agape in shock, unable to answer his question.Their expressions remained frozen, and even a hint of drool slipped from the corners of their mouths, unnoticed in their incredulous state.Honey, meanwhile, sat to the side, her thoughts in turmoil.‘What really happened back then when I was unconscious?’ she wondered desperately. How was my brother convinced to return the company to that witch? And why are they reacting like this to such a simple question?’‘This isn’t even the first time grandfather would be ordering that b!tch to hand over the company to my brother.’Her mind brimmed with questions, but she was ignored, as though she didn’t exist.Nico and Mason continued staring at the old man, their eyes filled with pure astonishment and disbelief, until finally;“You… You were going to… you were going to ask her to hand the company and the entire Projects Echelon to
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 288 – Lucius and Augustus’ Excitement
*****“Why didn’t you inform me before coming here?” Striding toward Lucius and his father was Borgia Ravencrest, the man Lucius had met alongside his father just a day ago when he rushed to report Jazzy’s demise.At this moment, Borgia’s expression was grim, his aura exuding an oppressive murderous intent that made Lucius and his father’s legs feel as though they had turned to jelly.Right now, the two men were standing before an enormous black gate, marking the entrance to Rivercrest Estate.Although they were members of an upper second-rank family—a family that could command the heavens and earth in the outside world.Here, however, they were powerless to the extent that it was an ordinary gatekeeper who had barred their entry, haughtily instructing them to either call the person they came to see or leave before they were forcibly made to disappear from the face of the world.Despite the fact that the gatekeeper was a mere mortal whom neither Lucius nor Augustus would typical

Chapter 360 – Jean’s Fear
*****For a moment after Jean instructed her phone’s AI to make the call, silence blanketed the area like a heavy, suffocating shroud.Then finally…“That’s brilliant, President Jean!”“I love your resolves, President Jean!”“President Jean, you’re amazing!”“President Jean, just call your lawyer already, since Sky Group doesn’t know what’s good for it!”“President Jean…”The crowd erupted in jubilant cheers, their voices ringing with excitement.Just moments ago, they had been wracked with anxiety, watching Jean’s reaction to Xavier’s question with bated breath.A creeping dread had even started to settle over them, fearing that Xavier might have been right after all.But now… none of that mattered.For Jean to have the audacity to call her lawyer so swiftly meant only one thing — Xavier was the one who had tried twisting the lawThis realization also spread like wildfire among Sky Group employees, and in that very instant, their hatred for Xavier intensified to a fright
Chapter 359 – Jean’s Source of Hatred
*****‘Her?’Everyone suddenly thought, perplexed for a moment before…“Huh? Why does she look like that?” someone suddenly abruptly, their brows knitting in confusion.Everyone exchanged gazes, sharing the same sentiment because, at this moment, Jean — the woman who had exuded boldness and arrogance while leading the charge a moment ago- now stood motionless, her face ashen, her lips trembling uncontrollably.It was as though… something she had never imagined happening had just unfolded before her eyes.“President Jean, are you… alright?” an elderly woman beside her couldn’t help but ask cautiously after a moment, but Jean didn’t seem to register her words.“This…”People exchanged bewildered glances, struggling to understand what was going on, until finally…“President Jean…” another woman near Jean, a middle-aged, cautiously called out, reaching out to gently touch her arm.In the following second—“Ye… yes!”Jean flinched as if she had been struck by a sudden surge of
Chapter 358 – Xavier’s Calmness
*****At this moment, the area outside Sky Group and within was entirely shrouded in a hush and oppressive stillness, everyone gawking at Xavier as though they were all a bunch of simpletons.No one could respond for a moment.They couldn’t process anything.And neither could they blink.They just stood there, staring as though they had lost their sanity, and this seemed to stretch on for what felt like an eternity before suddenly…“Absurd!” A low, furious snarl abruptly echoed from within the crowd, one of the members suddenly whirling around and glowering savagely at Xavier.“What absurdity are you spewing?” He demanded wrathfully.The voice instantly jolted everyone back to reality, and in the next second, it was as though both time and space had finally resumed their natural flow.The people in the crowd spun around, all of them also glowering resentfully and ferociously at Xavier.“You dare try to distort the law?”“Are you that eager to die?”“This scumbag disgusts m
Chapter 357 – Xylen’s Source of Confidence
*****Currently, all eyes were wide open in disbelief, all of them almost popping out of their sockets.One second.Five seconds.A minute.Nobody moved.Nobody breathed.It was as though the definition of time itself had disappeared, until finally…"H-He... he really dared to repeat those words?" someone stammered, his voice quaking with disbelief as he pointed a terribly shivering finger at Xavier.The comment was like a switch, jolting everyone back to their senses.In the following second…"He… he really dares to call us imbeciles again?!”“This… this must be a dream!”"I… I can’t accept this!""How dare he… how dare a stupid nobody insult us like this?!"The outside erupted in fury, while the inside… panic devoured the employees."We’re finished!""He… he has placed our company on the path of destruction!"Some even collapsed to the floor, overwhelmed with despair, while others wept bitterly.Back outside, Grace and Dorothy stood still, stunned into paralysis.
Chapter 356 – Xylen’s Calmness
*****The crowd hurled all sorts of venomous words that could make even the strongest person want to crawl into a hole and never resurface at Xavier, their voices dripping heavily with mockery and contempt.Even though the insults weren’t directed at them, Grace and Dorothy turned pale, then for a reason they couldn’t understand, their faces darkened with rage.In the next second, their fists clenched, their eyes gleaming with deep-seated fury.Finally…"That’s enough!"Grace, unable to bear the bullying any longer, snapped, her sharp voice instantly slicing through the noise like a blade.The courtyard fell into a hush silence in the next moment, and then, slowly, the crowd turned to look at her, exchanging smug glances as their sneers grew wider."Look who’s trying to play the heroine," a woman with a face heavily painted with make-up chuckled, her voice oozing with contempt and mockery."You can’t even figure out how to save yourself right now, and you want to save someone
Chapter 355 – The Employees’ Change
*****Pin-drop, heavy silence settled over the vicinity like a suffocating fog for a moment after the man finished speaking. Then, as if drawn by an invisible string, every pair of eyes slowly shifted toward Xavier.The crowd's lips twitched.'What’s the worst way to be dared if not this?' They thought in unison.Xavier had just been forced into a tight corner.If he dared to repeat the insult, he wouldn't just offend the big bosses in front of him—he would also put Grace and her company in jeopardy, as they would undoubtedly move forward with the lawsuit.And in the end, he would face the consequences.But if he stayed silent or backed down, he’d be indirectly admitting to being a bastard, disowning his parents, and humiliating himself.There was no easy way out.Everyone grasped the gravity of the situation, and because of this, the employees of Sky Group held their breath, the tension in the air growing heavier as the weight of their predicament settled in like a stone in
Chapter 354 – I Dare You to Repeat What You Just Said!
*****Seeing Xavier currently standing casually beside Grace, facing the crowd as though he hadn’t a care in the world, neither Grace nor Dorothy could react.They stood frozen, their minds replaying the chaos from earlier that day — when the pressure on Grace and Sky Group had nearly crushed them.Xavier had been the only one to stand unwaveringly by Grace’s side, shouldering all her burden as if it were his own.He had gone against every single person who had dared to go against her, fearing no one.Even Dorothy, despite her unwavering loyalty and respect for Grace, hadn’t dared to interfere. But Xavier? It was as though he had believed himself untouchable and beyond harm.Although he hadn’t fulfilled his promise of introducing Grace to the Blackwoods — who could have secured Sky Group’s entry into Projects Echelon- he had still miraculously convinced Mason to sign an agreement that severs all ties between his family and Sky Group.He had also forced the hypocritical partner
Chapter 353 – You’re All Nothint But A Pack Of Imbeciles!
*****“Also, President Grace, I hope you haven’t forgotten how you humiliated us today, forcing us to kneel and beg without leaving us even the slightest shred of dignity. What do you think will happen if we were to also include this in our lawsuit?”"President Grace... heh, make your decision already. My family and I don’t have the luxury of wasting time here—we have more important matters to attend to."“I’m even starting to feel like I deserve the biggest share of this Project, so, it’s better you make your choice now before my company changes its mind.”“Hey, Little girl... what are you still standing there and gawking for like an idiot? Do we need to beg you to make your decision?”As though they weren’t the same people sobbing wretchedly moments ago, acting like their entire existence would crumble if Grace didn’t reinstate the partnership contracts, all of them, apart from their still-lifeless, now brazenly hurled threats at her.Not the slightest trace of humility.Not
Chapter 352 – The Crowd’s Change
*****At this moment, an unnatural silence blanketed the entire area outside the Sky Group building.No one voiced a sound.No one budged.Everyone… both the former partners of Sky Group, the Sky Group employees and even Dorothy gawked, all of them staring in stunned disbelief at the old man who had just spoken.For what felt like an eternity, no one returned to their senses.Most notable of all was Grace, who found it the most inconceivable to process the threat she had just received.Her mind reeled.‘I should divide Project Echelon evenly and hand it over to you guys?’‘After all the treachery you people have committed? After you guys have merely harvested the ruin you sowed?’‘What an absurdity!’Her bewilderment vanished like a puff of air in the next instant, swiftly replaced by an icy coldness.Her eyes also sharpened, turning as frosty as the dead of winter.She cast a quick glance at the arrogant woman in her thirties who had first incited the chaos, then fixed a
