Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 380 – Which of You Idiots Wants to be the Next to Fall?
***** The gorgeously, beautiful, young woman screamed just as Xavier was about to round a corner, her voice abruptly startling everyone. All eyes immediately shifted to her, and the elderly man’s gaze became filled with worry and confusion. “What do you think you’re doing?!” He hissed, while the masked figures glared menacingly at her, their murderous aura spiraling outward. However, the young woman did not spare any of them a glance. Instead, she fixed a hopeful yet anxious stare on Xavier, who had already come to a stop, his back still turned toward her. She trembled all over, her fingers nervously twisting around each other. “You… you claim you can protect us if we hand over the Everdusk Bloom, right?” She stammered. In the next moment, a suffocating, oppressive silence blanketed the area, every gaze instantly locking onto the young woman. Her grandfather and the masked men. They were dumbfounded beyond measure, then… “She…” The masked figures didn’t kn
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 381 – You Are Not Some Ordinary Guy, Are You?
***** For a moment, no one could respond. Not the elderly man, not his granddaughter, and most especially, not the masked mercenaries. Everyone continued staring at Xavier in a trance who should have already been slaughtered, completely unsure of how to react until finally… “Where… where is Fifth Brother?” One of the masked figures stammered, shattering the silence like a fragile piece of glass. In the next second, speculations filled the air. “Fifth Brother and his usual antics.” “Why hasn’t he finished off this idiot already?” “Ugh! I should have been assigned the task.” The masked men began to express their discontent and irritation while scanning their surroundings. However, Xavier did not interject. Instead, he remained entirely at ease, even leisurely chewing on a blade of grass he had procured from who knows where. At last, however, when the group of mercenaries began to complain after not seeing what they were searching for… “Are you searchin
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 382 – Sage Myron & His Granddaughter Anxiousness
***** Although Xavier could perceive the impact of his actions, he continued to feign innocence and ignorance, casually chewing on the blade dangling between his lips. “What do you mean I’m not an ordinary person?” He questioned irritably. “Do I have two heads or four arms?”” “This…” The masked leader’s legs tremble. “Hehehe.” The stunning woman, on the other hand, suddenly found herself chuckling, her eyes gleaming as she fixed her gaze on Xavier. Everyone glanced in her direction, yet no one dared to reprimand her because, at this moment, a terrifying presence was standing before them. The mercenary leader, after staring at Xavier in stunned silence for what felt like an eternity, took a deep breath and forcibly steadied himself. “Considering how effortlessly you have subdued those two, you are certainly not an E-rank fighter, nor are you a D-rank,” he stated pensively. And the instant the three people present with him heard his speculation, their breathing
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 383 – Sending The Mercenaries Bolting With Their Tails Between Their Legs
***** For a moment that felt like an eternity, an oppressive, deathly silence consumed the area. It was so stifling and suffocating that no one could think or even blink. They couldn’t even move their limbs, making them suddenly resemble frozen statues. Every single person became so rigid that one would assume they were standing before a celestial being who could erase their very existence should they make a single movement. Aside from the three masked men on the crooked streetlight pole, who had already lost consciousness, their leader and the last remaining subordinate slumped against the wall, fixating their gaze on Xavier. Although their expressions were concealed beneath their masks, anyone could envision the sheer dread and panic currently lurking beneath. Meanwhile, Sage Myron and his granddaughter—both remained petrified on the ground, their faces resembling those whose very souls had been ripped away from them. They neither blinked nor stirred; instead,
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 384 - Departed
*****As soon as Sage Myron’s granddaughter processed his words, her face drained of all color and she hurriedly grasped his arm, her gaze burning with terror and incredulity, as though silently demanding why he had just questioned Xavier.Meanwhile, Xavier remained unfazed, his expression devoid of emotion, and seeing this, Sage Myron became terrified, what he had just done finally settling in."I…" He swallowed hard. "I wasn’t trying to question you, sir. I was just afraid they wouldn’t let the issue go and would rush to report you to the A-rank warrior who assigned them this mission, compelling him to come after you," he explained, his unease becoming even more evident with each word.Xavier was their savior, their benefactor, and he couldn’t allow misfortune to befall him because he had chosen to assist them.Both himself and his granddaughter began to wait anxiously for Xavier’s response, tension coiling around them like a vice.The old man, however, had already begun to of
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 385 – An Hopeful Lyria
***** Both Sage Myron and Lyria remained frozen in place for what felt like an eternity, staring blankly at the spot where Xavier had once stood. A long silence stretched between them until finally— “Grand… Grandfather, he… I think he has just vanished,” Lyria stammered, snapping the old man out of his stupor, and the moment her words sank in, his expression changed significantly. Although he had already realized Xavier was gone, the weight of it was only now settling in, and with it came an overwhelming sense of loss. His features, already aged, seemed to wither further as his eyes dulled with pain and despair. Then— Thud! He collapsed to his butt. “Grandfather!” Lyria cried out with panic, rushing to the man’s side and clutching him tightly—her pillar, her only source of stability. “Are you all right?” she asked, her voice heavily laced with anxiety. Sage Myron trembled violently, his eyes rimmed with red. “I… I don’t think I’ll be able to wake your fath
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 386 – The Mysterious Figures Behind Nightforce Guild

It felt like being hit by a raw, high-voltage shock, jolting their very souls with a harsh dose of reality.Their eyes darted around, erratic and wide with fear, until all gazes inevitably settled upon their leader.“What?” he barked, his tone edged with hostility, sharp enough to cut through the thick tension in the air. “Why the hell are you all staring at me?”The sheer aggression in his voice sent an immediate shudder through the group, and instinctively, they tore their eyes away, lowering their heads as if submission would shield them from his fury.Yet, no matter how much they tried to suppress their apprehension, the leader himself was no better off. His jaw clenched so tightly that his teeth ground together with a sickening scrape, his breath uneven and laced with barely restrained rage.But amidst the
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 387 – Why Is The Ground Above Me?

Chapter 397 – The Couple’s Plan For Revenge
*****“I’m curious…” Victor muttered suddenly, glancing at Jennifer after hearing her words. “How did he make that soldier obey him like that? It wasn’t just respect—it was absolute deference. Could it be… he has an identity you don’t know about?”“This…”Jennifer faltered.She had been so blinded by hatred just now that she hadn’t considered it. But now…She recalled the soldier’s words, his tone, the way he had bowed his head.Her brows furrowed, and for the first time, uncertainty flickered in her gaze.But then, as if crushing the thought beneath her heel, she let out a scornful laugh.“You think that useless loser is anything special?”Victor didn’t answer, but his hesitation spoke volumes.Jennifer sneered at this. “You… You actually thought that nobody was someone important? What a joke!”Her laughter grew louder, and harsher until it turned into something bordering on hysteria.She laughed until her sides ached until tears pricked her eyes—not from sadness, but fro
Chapter 396 – The Humiliated & Furious Couple
*****Jennifer’s breath hitched upon hearing the soldier’s question, and Victor’s shoulders trembled.The soldier had guessed right.The torment they had endured and the unspeakable horrors—although not physically, had shattered them so thoroughly that they had lost control of themselves.Their own bodies had betrayed them in their helplessness. And now—The humiliation was suffocating.The soldier’s laughter rang in their ears, each note of mockery stabbing them deeper, deeper.He didn’t even need a response. Their silence, their frozen expressions of horror, were answer enough.“Pathetic.”He waved a hand in front of his nose, feigning exaggerated nausea. “Get out of my sight before I puke.”Jennifer and Victor jolted at his words, their bodies instinctively jerking into motion.They didn’t even hesitate. Heads down, shoulders hunched, they staggered away, their steps unsteady, their minds fractured.They didn’t walk. They ran.They ran without looking back, their feet
Chapter 395 – The Pitiful Victor and Jenifer
*****The following morning.Claannng!The sharp sound of metal hitting metal suddenly echoed through the silent corridor as a heavily armored soldier slid the rusted iron bolt aside.He unlocked the cell door with a lazy flick of his wrist, the hinges screeching in protest. Then his cold, pitiless eyes peered into the suffocating darkness within, where the air was thick with the stench of sweat, filth, and something far worse—despair.“You can leave,” he spat, his voice dripping with contempt.The cell was pitch black, an abyss so consuming that even the faintest shapes were swallowed whole.At a glance, it seemed abandoned, as if no living soul had ever occupied it. But the soldier wasn’t deceived. He didn’t move, didn’t rush. Instead, he remained at the threshold, arms crossed, waiting.Seconds passed, yet no response. And realizing this, his lips twisted into a smirk.“No movement? Hah. It seems you two enjoyed the special treatment I arranged for you. Perhaps another day
Chapter 394 – You’re Sure This Marriage Is Not Just A Contra—
*****“Mother, Father!” Xavier called out, his voice deliberately loud, acting as though he had just entered and had no idea they were in the living room.For a brief moment, silence reigned throughout the house. Then…But then…“Uncle?”A soft, hesitant voice drifted from the living room.Just at that moment, Xavier stepped in and was met with a sight that nearly shattered him.His mother’s eyes were red and puffy, her hands hurriedly wiping at the lingering traces of tears, evidence that she had been quietly weeping before his arrival.Opposite her, his father sat rigid, his face lined with sorrow, trying and failing to mask the emotions etched onto his features.Between them, Little Lola sat still, her expression uncertain, her tiny hands clutching the hem of her dress as if needing something to hold on to.But the moment she truly registered his presence, her eyes brightened like a sky after a storm, and without hesitation, she jumped to her feet.Yet, just as quickly,
Chapter 393 – Eavesdropping
***** A shift in the atmosphere settled over the massive mansion, suffocating and heavy. Xavier’s heart clenched. He hadn’t even stepped into the living room yet, and he could already tell his mother had been deeply affected by those words. And as expected… “You—” Sarah’s voice cracked, the weight of emotion making it tremble. “You must…” But before her words could fully escape, David’s voice cut in abruptly. “So tell me, then, Little Lola. If you enjoy spending time with your grandmother and me so much, why do you keep asking about your uncle?” Xavier immediately understood. His father was trying to shift the conversation, to steer his wife away from another painful breakdown. A knowing smile played on his lips. ‘My father understood my mother better than anyone after all,’ he thought to himself. Shaking his head lightly, he prepared to step into their sight when— "Grandpa, Grandma, Little Lola don’t think you know yet…" Little Lola’s soft voice, fille
Chapter 392 – Returning Home
*****Completely oblivious to the intricate schemes unraveling beneath the veil of night, Xavier sat comfortably in the rear seat of a sleek sedan, his excitement nearly palpable.His eyes gleamed like polished gemstones under a flickering light, an irrepressible grin stretching across his face as he clutched a small, unassuming box. Every few moments, he ran his fingers over its surface as if to reassure himself that it was real."Who would have thought today’s simple outing would yield such an invaluable treasure?" he mused, his gaze fixated on the box in his grasp.This herb had weighed heavily on his mind ever since he resolved to concoct a medicinal remedy for his parents' untimely agedness and health.Despite maintaining a façade of optimism—believing it wouldn’t be too difficult to acquire from the herbal market where Little Lola had planned to take him—deep down, a lingering unease had gnawed at him. But now…“We’ve arrived, sir.”The deep, reverent voice of the driver
Chapter 391 – Report About Hunter
*****A small group remained after everyone else had left unhappily, and seeing these people, Augustus, who was still reveling in his and his family’s triumph, turned to them with a curious smile.“You have something for me?”The guards hesitated, a flicker of unease flashing across their faces before finally, they mustered their courage and then…“We…”The hesitation did not go unnoticed.“We have combed every corner of the city, as per your orders, sir, in search of Hunter.” One of them spoke, at last, his voice carrying a strained edge.Augustus’s eyes narrowed slightly.“Oh?”Lucius and his father both turned their attention fully to the guards, their interest piqued.But as the group remained awkwardly silent, their expressions darkened.“Don’t tell me…” A chill laced Augustus’s voice, his aura beginning to stir once more. “You failed to complete such a simple task?”A suffocating pressure filled the air once again, causing the guards to stiffen in alarm. Their throat
Chapter 390 – The Planned Banquet In The Scoan Family

Their hearts pounded erratically, a foreboding sense of unease gripping them. But just then—Boom!An overwhelming aura exploded into existence, crashing down upon the surroundings with suffocating intensity.‘This…’Expressions twisted in shock as an invisible force pressed upon them.The weaker guards and servants were instantly overwhelmed, their legs buckling as they collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air. Their faces drained of color, turning ashen as if the very weight of the world had descended upon their shoulders.Some unfortunate ones coughed up blood, their bodies convulsing as though c
Chapter 389 – Lucius’s Level Up
*****“Kakakaka!”A sudden burst of maniac, unrestrained laughter echoed from deep within the Scoan family estate, sharp and chaotic, like the crazed cackling of a madman consumed by madness.It was already late into the night, and given the sheer size of the estate, the eerie laughter carried far and wide, slicing through the silence like a blade.Those still awake felt their spines stiffen in alarm, while those already asleep were wrenched violently from their slumber, jolted upright with pounding hearts.“Who? What in the world?”The estate’s servants, guards, and workers rushed out of their quarters, confusion swirling among them like a thick fog.“Who could possibly be laughing like that at this hour?”Their anxious gazes darted around, searching for the source of the disturbing sound—when suddenly...“This father has finally ascended to supremacy! I am now an F-rank fighter! Let’s see who dares to stand in my way now!”A voice, dripping with arrogance and untamed glee,
