Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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,
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO 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
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 398 – The Soldier’s Respect
*****Xavier woke up very early that morning, his mind already set on the tasks ahead.Without a moment’s delay, he washed himself clean and reached for the only available attire in his possession—the very same outfit he had worn upon his release from prison.Although freshly laundered, it still carried a faint shadow of his past, as if it bore silent witness to the life he had left behind.‘I really need to find time to purchase some proper clothing,’ he mused to himself, though he wasn’t particularly eager about shopping for attire.Despite his usual indifference and dislike for extravagant clothing, the idea of wearing the same plain and uninspiring outfit unsettled him. Now slightly faded, the attire seemed to radiate mediocrity, resembling something a beggar might wear.To be honest, it wasn’t the absence of luxury that troubled him, but what the dress itself represented—a lingering tie to a past he was determined to leave behind.Above all, what unsettled him most was the

Chapter 464 – The Crowd Finally Accepting Their Defeat
*****Everyone stared, slack-jawed from Xavier to Miss Aria, her words echoing endlessly in their minds.Yet, seemingly unfazed, Aria only gazed calmly at Xavier, waiting for his reaction.But...She would be waiting forever, because, as it turned out, Xavier wasn't going to react at all.Of course, Xavier wasn’t a fool.How could he not understand what the higher-ups of High Fashion were trying to do?They were obviously desperately trying to tie down a big fish, unwilling to let the customer who had just spent fifty million dollars walk away scot-free.What stupid "sole control rights"? What "50% off every future purchase"?All of it — every so-called benefit — was just bait to ensure Xavier would make High Fashion his exclusive brand for spending, splurging, and showing off his wealth.However, it seemed Xavier was the only one who immediately grasped this, or... no, everyone else understood it too.They were just simply too blinded by the sheer flex.After all, what ki
Chapter 463 – A True King
*****"The volume of items you purchased is so enormous that… that it will take more than a full day just to pack them. Moreover, we’ll need a long truck to transport everything."Dead silence fell over the room once again, and every heart skipped a beat.'The volume of the purchased items wouldn't even fit in regular transport.'‘If that wasn't the ultimate flex, then what was?’Around him, the women, who moments ago had sneered and laughed, were now gazing at Xavier with hearts in their eyes, their stares practically devouring him.‘So handsome! So powerful!’Daisy, the young lady who had been mocked in the Dior store earlier for not knowing about High Fashion, could barely restrain herself.Her heart hammered wildly against her ribs as she fantasized about throwing herself into Xavier’s arms.Their boyfriends, their male companions, noticed this shift, and their faces turned an ugly shade of green.But none of them dared to voice their anger.Not a single one, because th
Chapter 462 – The Best Form of Revenge
*****Meanwhile, Miss Lin, the elegant Dior’s supervisor.Right now, her face was pale, her usually sharp eyes dulled with regret.She had instantly believed Roxie's story and had suggested Amelia’s firing without a second thought—all because she, too, had assumed Xavier was a pauper unworthy of patience.‘Would things have been different if I hadn't judged him so quickly?’ The thought gnawed at her, biting into her pride, her stomach churning.Yet no tears came. Only a deep, hollow sense of dread.Meanwhile, standing just a few steps away, Aria Wynn—the unflappable supervisor of High Fashion—was no better.For the first time in her professional life, her mind was in chaos.Aria, who had built her reputation on her calm, her poise, and her unshakable demeanor, was now battling the overwhelming urge to simply collapse into a chair.She tried everything to steady herself—deep breaths, mental chants, tightening her fists—but nothing worked.Finally, she gave up.Instead, she s
Chapter 461 – All Pleading For Forgiveness
*****Never in her life had Roxie imagined she would one day kneel down in public, kowtowing, groveling, and begging at someone’s feet—much less offering herself as a servant.Yet here she was.And the worst part?She hadn’t even realized it.If anything, right now, Roxie was trapped in a storm of devastation, pain, and unbearable regret, unable to comprehend how things had spiraled so horrifically out of control.Just some minutes ago, Xavier and his parents had walked into her store of their own volition… calm, polite, and willing to spend their money there.But she and everyone there, blinded by prejudice and contempt for anyone who looked poor, had chased the family of four away as though they were nothing but filth tarnishing the presence of the wealthy ones.And now?Not only had she lost the opportunity to earn a million and a half dollars in commission alone, but she had also thrown away the chance for a promotion she had always longed for—dreamed of.No, worse.She
Chapter 460 – I’ll Act As Your Servant
*****The receipt machine had long since fallen silent, and now the entire room followed suit.‘That’s true,’ everyone thought in unison.If Dior hadn’t turned Xavier and his family away if they had simply treated them with basic respect, that fifty million dollars would have been their sale.The realization hit like a truck and in the next instant, pity welled up among the spectators—not for Xavier, not for Amelia, but for Dior’s boutique because it was their loss.How could they be so blind?But the person almost feeling the most pain?Undoubtedly, it was Miss Lin, the supervisor of Dior’s boutique.Up until now, she had been frozen, stuck somewhere between shame and horror.But now, now that the full implications had sunk in—her face turned ghostly pale.Her mouth opened and closed wordlessly as she stared at Roxie—the very person responsible for this catastrophe."You… you…" she stammered, raising a trembling hand to point at the woman. "What have you… what have you don
Chapter 459 – Shock In The Air II
*****Having been forced to fend for herself since she was old enough to walk, Little Lola knew all too well the value of money.Fifty million dollars, however, was a number too vast for her young mind to grasp.Yet none of that mattered.She didn’t need to understand the math to revel in the moment.She had witnessed how these so-called "adults" had sneered at her uncle, spat venom at her adopted grandparents, and treated them like dirt beneath their feet.Now?Now she was grinning from ear to ear, her little chest puffed up with pride, her cheeks practically glowing as she soaked in the stunned faces around her.Justice tasted sweet, even if she couldn’t calculate the exact price tag.And finally—Miss Aria Wynn, High Fashion’s supervisor.To be fair, although Miss Aria Wynn had remained composed throughout the drama, her elegant posture unwavering, that didn’t mean she was immune to doubt.Even she—sharp, astute, and battle-hardened in the world of luxury fashion had ne
Chapter 458 – Shock In The Air
*****‘Payment successful?’The simple, mechanical phrase echoed like a thunderclap in everyone’s mind, reverberating again and again.Absolute disbelief filled the store.No one! Not a single soul in the room—not even Xavier’s parents had thought the payment would ever succeed.That amount of money… it wasn’t something ordinary people even dreamed of seeing in a bank account. And even if, by some miracle, they had it, who in their right mind would drop it all on clothing?It was the kind of wealth that could elevate a struggling family into the ranks of the upper class overnight.Yet, here it was—casually spent on nothing tangible, but… clothing.The silence that gripped the boutique was deafening.No one blinked.No one breathed.No one even dared to think.The only sound was that of the receipt printer, whirring tirelessly as it spat out a long, seemingly endless ribbon of proof.Proof that none of them could deny.The receipt unspooled like a slow-motion declaration
Chapter 457 – Payment Successful
*****“Mister,” Miss Aria Wynn’s gentle yet commanding voice interrupted. “Are you still interested in completing the transaction?”The question, so casually spoken, instantly landed like a thunderclap in every ear.Everyone, no matter who fell silent again, and then they turned to the poised supervisor, wondering what her intentions were.Ultimately, someone whispered, “She’s… probably just trying to confirm the manager’s theory.”“Huh”The murmur spread, reaching every ear, and enlightenment sparked.The employees of Dior, especially those who had long coveted Amelia’s enviable position, brightened with anticipation.Roxie in particular lit up like a Christmas tree.She had long been watching Amelia from the sidelines, green with envy.While her own role was capped at the level of boutique manager, Amelia, who barely even worked, lived in luxury.Her paycheck? It was five times her own, and yet she never even lifted a finger, never pitched in, and never hustled.It was a
Chapter 456 – Roxie Speculation II
*****All attention veered to Roxie, whose words had taken on an almost theatrical flair.Miss Aria raised a brow, unimpressed but curious. “Please, elaborate.”Roxie’s face lit up like she had just been invited to audition for a lead role.Then, with pride swelling in her chest, she jabbed a finger toward Amelia.“If my thought is correct… which most definitely is, she must’ve noticed how our boutique kicked out this bunch of beggars. So, she’s trying to fabricate an extravagant sale to protect her job.”“Hmmm…” all brows rose, and Roxie continued.“She hasn’t made a single sale since she joined your company. Think about it. If she stages this fake purchase, even if the transaction fails, it’ll look like she’s indispensable, since the price of this purchase is something none had ever achieved before.”Roxie smirked, her voice brimming with smugness.“When the higher-ups at High Fashion see a failed transaction notification for fifty million dollars, they’ll most likely assum
