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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 289 – The Anxious Father and Son Duo
*****Inside a grand, opulent hall, whose magnificence far surpassed anything Augustus and his son had ever seen in their lives, the two men stood with their heads bowed.Compared to their own estate, this place was like heaven to their hellish slum.Neither of them dared to breathe too loudly at this moment.The once proud members of a powerful upper second-rank family now resembled meek mortals standing before gods, and looking at them, one would think they were in the presence of a powerhouse.This, however, wasn’t the case. The hall was frighteningly silent, devoid of any other presence aside from the two of them.They remained frozen in place, looking like slaves awaiting their master’s command, their tension so palpable it seemed to weigh down the very air.The silence dragged on like this for what felt like a long time, each second stretching into eternity, until:“First brother, what is this news you’ve gathered all of us for? And even disturbing Father all over?”A s
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 290 - The Revercrests Second Son’s Suggestion
*****“Impossible!”Borgia’s third brother suddenly sprang to his feet, his voice reverberating through the hall with such force that Lucius stumbled back in fear.“Why would that old fool from the Harrison family do something like that?” he growled, his sharp gaze boring into Lucius like a predator ready to strike.The oppressive weight of his killing intent was so strong that Lucius couldn’t help but feel as though his very existence was about to be ripped apart.“I…” Lucius stammered, his back drenched in cold sweat.The glare wasn’t limited to Borgia’s third brother. Every single person in the room, save for Augustus and Borgia’s second brother, everyone else was now staring daggers at him—including Borgia himself.“So this is the ridiculous nonsense you dared to bring before us?” Borgia snarled, his tone menacing and dark.His words instantly emitted such a potent weight that Lucius’s knees threatened to buckle.“I… I swear to heaven,” Lucius blurted, his voice trembling
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 291 - The Revercrest Family Patriarch’s Command
*****All jaws instantly dropped as a stunned silence filled the room, everyone seemingly forgetting to breathe.The moment stretched on for what felt like an eternity until—“First brother,” a sharp, mocking voice broke the stillness, snapping Borgia out of his trance.It was his third brother, and although his tone was angry right now, his jeering smirk betrayed a sense of gloating amusement, his eyes gleaming with sly satisfaction.‘This is bad!’ Borgia instantly thought, panic surging within him. But before he could react—“Father personally ordered the brat’s image distributed yesterday so we could dig up his background and know the faction he represents,” the third brother said, his words cutting like knives. “But what did you do? You rushed back here and commanded everyone to stop the search, acting like you knew it all, claiming with certainty that he wasn’t the one who had killed Jazzy whom the family had spent countless resources grooming. What are we supposed to think
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 292 - The Revercrest Second Son’s Scheme
*****As soon as Lucius heard this old man’s order, he returned to his senses. In the next second, his heart plummeted.‘He wants…’ his blood went cold. ‘But my bodyguard must have already taken him down,’ he thought, anxiety gnawing at him.Before he knew it dread crept as he wondered what the old man would do to him once he found out he had already killed the person he was interested in.‘What do I do now?’ His thoughts raced, his body trembling.On the other hand, the patriarch, seemingly done with the man waved his hand and as he had appeared, he disappeared.“Prepare the car,” the old man ordered suddenly. “I’m going to the Harrison estate.”The moment the words left his mouth, Borgia and his third brother scrambled to their feet, practically racing each other out of the room in an obvious attempt to curry favor.The patriarch ignored them entirely. Apart from Augustus and the visibly distressed Lucius, no one else reacted.“Let’s go,” the patriarch commanded, descending
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 293 – I Thought You Were Searching For Me?
*****“Just a little more… just move into an empty alleyway,” Lucius’s bodyguard muttered desperately under his breath, his eyes unblinkingly locked on Xavier’s every move.When he first began to tail Xavier from Sky Group, his plan had been very simple: follow him until nightfall and when darkness could shroud his actions, he would act swiftly and execute his missions. But now, seeing Xavier turn into a quiet, deserted street, his mind shifted.This was a perfect-given god’s opportunity.To be honest, he would have already attacked long ago since Xavier ventured into the sparsely filled street. He was very confident Xavier wouldn’t be able to survive even a single strike from him. But haste wasn’t wise.If the murder was ultimately traced back to him or his young master, it could create future problems, particularly with Xavier’s wife’s current strength. Patience was critical.Keeping his steps as soundless as possible so that a non-ranked fighter wouldn’t be able to feel it no
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 294 – What If I Told You I Rely On Nothing But My Strength, Would You Believe Me?
*****Noticing Xavier’s silence, the bodyguard didn’t get angry. Instead, he smirked, interpreting the lack of response as confirmation of his assumption.“Heh…” The bodyguard chuckled, his tone dripping with disdain. “I thought you were clever, considering how you’ve been managing to block my master’s plans all this while and constantly opposing him. But it turns out you’re just plain stupid.”His gloating expression deepened.“You knew I have been tailing you, likely to kill you, yet you waited instead of escaping? How bold of you? Or… should I ask, how foolish of you?” he sneered, his laughter echoing down the alleyway.“Huh?”Xavier, hearing his words suddenly tilted his head slightly, his expression shifting into one of an abrupt shock.Then before the bodyguard could react:“You…” Xavier stammered, his eyes wide. “You mean you were tailing me with… malicious intent? To kill me?”The bodyguard, “_”‘Huh?’He suddenly froze, his smirk vanishing as though it had never be

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
Chapter 434 – No Redemption Left
*****It had been more than three minutes since Xavier and the manager exited the bank, yet silence still gripped the bank like a vice.No one spoke.No one moved.The echoes of what had just transpired continued repeating endlessly in every mind, like a haunting dream on a loop.The employees stood frozen in place, pale-faced and drenched in cold sweat, while customers remained rooted, too stunned to process anything.And then, there was Brenda—her expression hollow, as the soul had already abandoned her body. Her eyes were vacant, her breathing shallow.She stood there, unmoving, like a statue carved from guilt and shame.Finally… the guards.All of them were still on their knees, unmoving.They had known that Xavier’s wrath was coming and had tried to prepare.They had knelt before him long before he reached them, as they had originally reached them.They'd begged, wailed, and thrown every ounce of self-respect out the window.They blamed the devil.Literally.“It wa
Chapter 433 – One Card, Half A Trillion
*****All blood was pumping fiercely at this moment.Even the customers in the crowd could feel it, as if they too were tangled in the madness unraveling before them.‘He was treated like trash… and in retaliation, he decided to withdraw his savings, knowing that’s enough punishment for the bad treatment he was given?’'No… not just punishment. Something enough to bankrupt an entire national banking system!’People blinked, looking stunned. Their indignation, their pride, their frustration—they’d all come to the bank for similar reasons.Many had planned to withdraw everything from their accounts as a form of protest. They, too, had grievances after all.They were constantly mistreated by the bankers and constantly ignored and overlooked as well, even always getting abused.But now?Now, their actions felt nothing more than children’s tantrums compared to what they’d just witnessed.Even the customer with the largest savings among the ordinary customers began to shrink inwar
Chapter 432 – What Is A Flex If Not This
*****From a young age, Julius had been taught a foundational truth of high finance:Every account has a ceiling—no matter who you are and how limitless your account and card are.Whether you were a high-ranking official or belonged to a first-tier powerhouse, the rule remained unbreakable.Even the legendary families at the apex of global wealth—those whose shadows loomed over economies. It was said they were bound by this limitation.Yes, you could control assets worth billions… trillions, even.Yes, your investments could span industries, continents, and entire empires.But when it came to liquid funds—hard cash—there was always a cap. A regulatory boundary.Julius had questioned this growing up.He had wondered why someone couldn’t just liquidate everything they had. Why couldn’t they simply convert all their assets into cold, spendable cash?The answer had always been delivered in helpless and respectful tones by economic tutors and advisors alike:Inflation. Stability
Chapter 431 – The Account Balance That Causes Commotion
*****They say maintaining absolute silence in a room with fewer than fifty people is easy. Manageable, even.Once the number crosses a hundred, though? That’s where it becomes nearly impossible.Human beings would breathe. They would shift. They would cough, murmur, sneeze, and move without realizing it. Now, multiply that by a hundred, and absolute silence becomes little more than a fantasy.But that law didn’t seem to apply here. Not today. Not in this bank.More than three hundred people were packed shoulder to shoulder within the confines of the main banking hall—customers, employees, security personnel, and even a few passersby who had walked in just moments earlier.And yet…Not a sound.Not a whisper.Not a rustle.Not even the rustle of fabric or the sigh of shifting weight.This wasn’t just silence. This was a… void.It was the kind of unnatural, oppressive stillness that made the very air feel thick and heavy—as though it might shatter if anyone dared to move.
Chapter 430 – The Titanium Account Balance
*****Right now, Julius simply stood there, looking utterly frozen.He stared blankly at Xavier, his anger completely evaporated.His arrogance had withered, and now, only confusion and disbelief remained.‘Is… is he sane?’ he wondered.Who rejects VIP treatment?His brain simply couldn’t process what was happening.….Meanwhile, Gregory stared hard at Xavier, a storm of emotions passing through his gaze.What he had just heard had completely humbled him.There was no arrogance in Xavier’s tone. No flaunting of power. No smug satisfaction. And no ridicule.It was only a quiet principleA principle Gregory had long buried beneath rules and obligations.To be honest, he, too, hated the practice.That’s rightHe hated prioritizing people based on wealth or background, likewise believing that no human being should be treated better than the other, especially when the said human beings were even in their rights.But a rule was a rule no matter what—and unless he was tired o
Chapter 429 – The Customers' Rising Admiration for Xavier
*****After Julius and Brenda, the guards were the most shocked after hearing Gregory make the announcement.Their knees turned to liquid, their eyes went wide, and their blood turned to ice.They had laughed at Xavier not long ago, insulting and calling him a lowlife entity for daring to challenge Julius and not give him a face.They had claimed he should have groveled before Julius—that he didn’t deserve to breathe the same air as him.And now?They had insulted a man who now made even Julius—their golden boy—look like a child playing dress-up.One of the guards whimpered softly, and another staggered before slumping against the wall, his hands shaking violently.“Wait… who was supposed to give face to who in the first place?” one of them muttered. “Weren’t we and even that Julius the ones who should’ve knelt to him from the start?”Regret tore through them like a thunderclap, the weight of their mistake suffocating them.They felt weak, almost sobbing.Their pride, their
Chapter 428 – An Unexpected Announcement
*****“Sir, please come with me to my office. I’ll personally handle everything for you.”That was the first thing the stunned customers heard upon rushing into the bank, causing their jaws to nearly drop to the floor.They froze, baffled.This wasn’t just any bank manager speaking—this was Gregory, the notoriously prideful manager of Pinnacle Bank, humbling himself without hesitation.But then they remembered that he had knelt before Xavier not long ago, even slapping the descendant of a third-rank family for him.Those two acts instantly silenced any thoughts of ridicule.Now, they looked at Xavier with awe—awe and something bordering on reverence.Envy flickered in their eyes, their minds bursting with questions they dared not speak aloud.'Who exactly was this man?'Xavier, however, remained utterly indifferent.From beginning to end, not once did his expression falter.He stood tall, poised, his bearing calm and composed—as if everything happening had already played o
