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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 295 – An Unexpected News for The Bodyguard
*****“You… you…” The bodyguard, stammering and struggling to rise to his wobbling legs suddenly stuttered.With this, his entire body trembled hysterically, gapping at Xavier with disbelief, his eyes wide open as if he had just witnessed the revelation of a supreme being.“You’re… you’re an E—E-rank fighter?” he finally managed to choke out.Hearing him, Xavier smiled faintly but didn’t respond right away.Then he waved his hand. In the next moment, the suffocating aura that had been pressing the bodyguard to the ground, threatening to shatter his bones, vanished as though it hadn’t been present to begin with.Feeling the abrupt disappearance of the suffocating aura, the bodyguard immediately collapsed, gasping for breath as though the weight of the world had just left his shoulder.“How… how is this possible? How could you be an E-rank fighter?” he began to murmur to himself like someone who had lost his senses, his voice trembling with terror.E-rank power. It was a level o
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 296 – Hunter’s World Crumbling
*****“How dare you? How dare you lie about my wife, you bitch! I should have killed you long ago!” Jace Hunter, Lucius’s bodyguard, roared, his voice trembling with unbearable rage.His eyes blazed with fury, and a suffocating wave of killing intent rolled off him—a level of menace he had not once directed at Xavier, showing that he really wanted to go on a killing spree right now.Standing calmly before him, Xavier couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, slightly intrigued.‘This guy…’ he mused. ‘He’s definitely walked through mountains of corpses to hone this kind of bloodlust. It’s too potent to come from anything else.’Thinking this, a sudden amusement flickered across Xavier’s face, the sharp tension in the air only deepening his interest.With this, he was no longer in a hurry to act.On the other hand, Hunter, completely unaware of Xavier’s thoughts was trembling all over, the fury in his posture making it seem as if he might explode at any moment. But the voice on the oth
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 297 – Hunter’s Misunderstanding
*****Xavier stared at Hunter’s limp form on the ground, his jaw dropped in astonishment, and then finally, his brows furrowed in hesitation.On one hand, Hunter was someone sent to take his life—a type of person Xavier had sworn never to spare, no matter what.But on the other hand, Xavier hadn’t sensed even the slightest shred of killing intent from the man towards him which shows that whatever he had wanted to do wasn’t a personal vendetta; Hunter had simply sold his soul to an evil master, forced to carry out every cruel mission handed to him. And now…“Come to think of it though,” Xavier muttered to himself suddenly as a thought struck him.Without further hesitation, he stepped forward, bent down, and picked up Hunter’s phone. Then rewinding the video, he watched it play out once again, this time in full detail.“Ouch…” Xavier winced eventually, unable to suppress a flinch as he watched. His gaze then flicked back to Hunter’s fainted figure, a tinge of pity flashing in his
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 298 – Recruiting Hunter
***** “Based on what the caller just said, several people have already been dispatched to take your life,” Xavier said suddenly, his voice calm yet pointed. “Don’t you think charging off for revenge right now would be nothing more than a suicide mission?” “I…” Hunter’s mouth opened to respond, but no words came out. Of course, he already knew Xavier was right—but… His fists clenched tightly, his nails digging into his palms as his rage and unwillingness bubbled to the surface. Xavier, noticing this, smiled faintly. “I’m not denying you your revenge. You can always have it in the future,” he said. “And depending on how you perform… I might even give you a helping hand.” “This…” Hunter froze, his jaw practically dropping to the ground. He had never expected such words from Xavier—not in his wildest dreams. “You… you… why?” he finally stuttered, his voice heavily laced with disbelief. Xavier’s lips curled into a small smile, understanding his question. “Didn’t I mentio
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 299 – A Pitiful Little Lola
*****“Who would’ve anticipated that I’d actually get myself a free new subordinate today?” Xavier couldn’t help but mutter to himself with a small smile as he walked out of the alleyway, clearly pleased with recruiting Hunter.The thought lingered in his mind for a moment before his smile finally faded, replaced by a slight furrow as he stood by the roadside.“What’s next on the list?” he mumbled to himself, his brows knitting together.To be honest, although he had been well aware of his heavily packed schedule for the day, he hadn’t had the chance to plan it out.First, the previous day had been so hectic that by the time he was free, it was nearly the dawn of this morning, leaving him with only a few hours of sleep. Then, this morning, instead of organizing his tasks for the day, he had to rush out to meet Grace to fulfill a promise he’d completely forgotten about until the last minute.And after leaving Sky Group, his focus had been derailed again.Initially, he had intend

Chapter 445 – The Changed Little Lola
*****David's gaze dropped to his hands—wrinkled, toughened by labor, marked by time. His eyes shimmered with unshed tears, glistening beneath the store’s ambient lighting.Finally, in a soft, hoarse voice, he spoke:“…Alright, son.”He cleared his throat, then stood a little straighter.“I’ll pick something for myself. Something decent.”Xavier didn’t say a word, but the small upward curve of his lips spoke volumes. It was a smile of pride, quiet victory, and deep affection.David turned to Amelia. “Could you show me where the men’s section is? Something for… older men?”Xavier immediately let out a long-suffering groan and rolled his eyes.“Father, come on. You’re not that old, you know? Just find something that would suit the younger you. You might even surprise yourself.”David snorted and gave his son a playful glare, but didn’t argue. Deep down, he felt just a little lighter, a little freer.Amelia, smiling now with renewed warmth, nodded eagerly and guided David towa
Chapter 445 – Changing David’s Train of Thought
*****“Father, why don’t you have a look around? Pick something you like—anything at all.”David furrowed his brows immediately and gave his son a long, sideways glance. “Do I strike you as the kind of man who goes window shopping?” he grumbled. “Besides, I’m not exactly young anymore. I’ve got enough clothes to last me until the end of my days. You focus on yourself, your mother, and the little one. I don’t need anything new.”His tone was firm… blunt even, leaving no room for argument.Xavier studied his father silently for a few seconds upon hearing him. He had expected that reaction, yet it still left him a little speechless.Ultimately, he sighed with mild exasperation. “Dad…”He paused, a gentle frown creasing his brow.“Back when I was little until I went away, even when you were working day and night just to make ends meet, you never once splurged on yourself. Every dime you earned, you poured into the family. I still remember you always arguing with Mother about how ‘a
Chapter 444 – The Emotional Little Lola
*****Xavier didn’t reply to the sales assistant immediately.Instead, he turned gradually, his eyes softening as they settled on Little Lola. At this very instant, the young girl’s expression was alight with wonder.Her sparkling eyes, wide with amazement, were fixed intently in a specific direction. The longing shimmering within them was unmistakable.It was a gaze so pure, so filled with innocent yearning, that anyone watching could instantly recognize it—she had discovered something that had utterly captivated her heart.Without a second thought, Xavier followed the trail of her gaze.His eyes landed squarely upon a delicately displayed princess-style gown hanging under a spotlight.The dress was exquisite, crafted with a meticulous blend of pastel colors, and adorned with intricate embroidery that resembled blooming spring flowers. The lace hem rippled like waves frozen in time, and floral patterns danced along the fabric, giving the gown an ethereal, fairytale-like charm.
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
