Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 311 – Sarah’s Concern
*****Sarah, with her tender heart, nearly rushed forward to embrace the little girl—to reassure her that everything was okay and that no one here would punish her. But seeing Lola’s fragile state, she hesitated. Eventually, she glanced at Xavier with pleading eyes.“You brought her here, didn’t you? You should be able to calm her,” she urged anxiously, unable to bear seeing the pitiful child suffer any longer.Hearing this, Xavier could only let out a weary sigh before carefully nodding his head.“Little girl,” he called out gently. “Don’t you remember Uncle again?”“Huh?”Little Lola’s desperate apologies halted suddenly and she looked up, her brows knitting together in confusion.“Uncle?” She muttered innocently.In the following second, however, she blinked, recognition slowly dawning on her face.‘Isn’t this the nice uncle who had promised to save Little Lola from Father’s belt earlier?’ she wondered, her small hands nervously fidgeting, then she carefully opened her tin
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 312 – Little Lola’s Fear
*****‘Sumptuous and delicious meal?’This phrase echoed in Little Lola’s mind, sounding foreign to her.In the following second, an image of the plain noodles she had eaten the previous night surfaced in her mind.Before she could control herself, her throat bobbed as she subconsciously swallowed hard, her eyes lighting up with a mixture of hope and longing she could no longer hide.Seeing this, Xavier and his parents exchanged knowing smiles, then Sarah turned to her son.“Why don’t you keep our guest company?” she suggested. Then, without waiting for a response, she turned to her husband.“David, could you help me fetch a glass of cold water for them?”“Yes, wife.” David nodded his head without hesitation and followed his wife out, leaving Xavier and Little Lola alone.With the two adults gone, Little Lola grew nervous, having no idea of what to do next.Xavier, seeing this observed her for a moment before eventually gesturing toward the couch.“Why don’t you sit down?”
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 313 – The Ravencrest and The Harrison’s Meeting
*****“Don’t you forget that Project Echelon is something meticulously crafted by all our first-rank families’ ancestors—a mechanism designed to constantly fortify and strengthen our first-rank families alliances and consolidate our power. Do you comprehend the chaos your family will cause and face when the other first-rank families learn about what you’ve just done?” These words slithered from the elderly Ravencrest patriarch’s lips, his voice smooth but venomous, like a serpent coiled, ready to strike.They were currently seated inside an enormous living room, so vast it could rival a grand hall.Lavish and expensive chandeliers bathed the polished marble floors in golden light, yet the Ravencrest patriarch’s presence seemed to dim the room itself, his aura spreading through the space... cold, oppressive, and brimming with an unspoken level of malevolence.Across from this old man who appeared ready to erupt at any given moment was another elderly man, the Harrison family patria
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 314 – The Ravencrest Third Brother’s Fear
*****“So fucking arrogant!” Borgia suddenly snarled, his face roughly twisted with rage as they settled into their car. “Did you see how casually he had spoken to you, Father? Not even an iota of respect!”“The audacity of the Harrison family!” Borgia’s third brother added, his voice trembling with indignation and venom. “They dared to betray the other first-rank families and still had the audacity to act normal about it! Did they think they’re untouchable?”Seated in the middle, the old man—their father said nothing. However, his current silence was more terrifying than any outburst he could have made.He stayed still like this for a moment, but the instant the car doors shut, the dam broke.A wave of murderous intent surged through the space in an instant, suffocating in its intensity, and feeling the sudden pressure, the driver’s knuckles tightened on the steering wheel, large beads of sweat instantly forming on his brow."Harrison family…" the patriarch finally spoke, his v
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 315 – Has Little Lola Passed Away and Gone to Heaven
*****Inside a grand dining room bathed in the cozy glow of the chandelier above.At this moment, its soft, amber light poured over the exclusive furniture and the ridiculously expensive table—an antique masterpiece crafted from rare timber and epoxy art, its polished surface not just reflecting the dishes laid upon it but also mirroring the grandeur of the massive dining room itself.A lavish banquet was spread across its surface: glistening roasted meats with juices pooling like liquid gold from them, steaming bowls of rich, aromatic soups, and delicate, buttery bread that seemed to be radiating warmth that defied the chill in the air.An assortment of colorful side dishes that filled the air with a mouthwatering aroma completed this perfect picture, making it resemble the feast of royalty.At this majestic table sat Xavier, his mother Sarah, and his father David, their gazes currently locked on the fragile figure opposite them—Little Lola.At present, the small girl sat rigid
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 316 – I Hope This Moment Never Ends
*****At first, Xavier and his parents couldn’t believe their ears, the trio assuming the little girl was just joking.However, upon recalling her sincere voice and observing her hopeful, expectant gaze fixed on Sarah as she waited for a response, they realized in their stupor that she wasn’t joking.In the next moment, they found themselves unsure whether to laugh or cry.“Little girl, why… why would you ask such a question?” Sarah inquired softly, her voice tinged with concern.Little Lola, still oblivious to the gravity of her words, paused, then frowned slightly as though gathering her thought answers truthfully, tilting her small head in an endearing manner.“Little Lola met a preacher in the herb market a few days ago, and the lady was telling everyone that when we die, we’ll go to heaven if we’re not sinners and that there, we’ll get to enjoy all the things we never had when we were alive.”“This…”If Xavier and his parents had been merely surprised before, now they wer
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 317 – The Harrison’s Press Conference
*****Inside a moderately sized conference room—a not-so-big and not-so-small one, a group of high-ranking executives sat, their gazes fixed on a large screen, expressions frozen in disbelief and utter confusion.Pin-drop silence currently engulfed this conference room, thick and strong shock heavily etched across every face, showing that whatever they were presently witnessing had defied every logic and expectation.The screen eventually went dark, but even then, no one moved. They continued to stare blankly at it, all of them acting as if the images were still playing before their eyes, lost in a haze of disbelief.This stunned silence lingered until, abruptly:“That… that press conference we… we just saw,” the elderly man seated at the head of the table finally stuttered, his voice heavy with shock and incredulity.His words directly snapped the entire room out of their trance, and they all turned to him, their expressions mirroring the elderly man’s bewilderment.“Sir Pre—S
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 318 – Praise Porter’s Return
*****The room instantly fell into pin-drop silence after the elderly president’s words, a suffocating tension spreading like wildfire.No one reacted for a moment, but then their expressions shifted, nerves creeping in as they recalled Grace’s fearsome reputation.Finally, however:“But… that shouldn’t be a problem, right?” a woman in her early forties asked hesitantly.All eyes instantly snapped toward her, their gazes sharp and questioning.“What do you mean?” someone prodded carefully.Taking a deep breath to steady herself, the woman gathered her thoughts.“Since we had never intended to cut ties with her company, we can just easily shift the blame onto that arrogant Lucius—claiming he had forced us to pressure her by threatening to destroy our company if we didn’t comply,” she explained, her tone growing more confident with each word.For a moment, no one made a sound, all of them processing the woman’s words, and this lasted for a moment before ultimately;“Brilliant!

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
Chapter 440 – Receiving Showers of Spiteful, Venomous, and Vicious Insults
*****“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
