Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 097 – Lucius’s Relief
***** Lucius had never taken Xavier to his mind and he had long sentenced him to death, merely waiting for news from his bodyguard whom he had dispatched to assassin him now. Never in his wildest dreams—or rather, nightmares—had he expected the next news he would hear about Xavier to be that he had slain a godlike figure such as an E-rank fighter, a level that none in his own family, despite its strength and position, had yet to attain. “You know him?” Borgia asked urgently, noticing Lucius’s dumbstruck expression and outburst. But Lucius was too frozen in shock and disbelief right now to react. He remained transfixed, staring dazedly at the phone displaying Xavier's image, where he was smiling at his parents outside the underground fighting club. Lucius’s mind was in complete turmoil, overwhelmed with fear as he remembered how he had treated Xavier earlier and even sent someone to assassinate him. He stayed like this for a moment before suddenly, something seemed to
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 098 – Grace’s & Dorothy’s Rage
*****Grace’s casual expression finally faded away as soon as she heard Xavier still insisting on owning a villa in OceanView Estate.She stared blankly at him for a moment, half-expecting him to suddenly break into a grin and admit he was merely joking. After all, who wouldn’t laugh at such an absurdity of an ordinary person claiming to own a house in OceanView Estate of all places? Yet, there he was, staring back at her, his expression steady, as if he had just casually stated the most obvious fact in the world.She had already been frustrated with him for telling his parents about their marriage—something meant to be a mere business arrangement—without giving her any warning. Now, however, he even dared to boast about something so obviously untrue.‘I thought you were a bit different, maybe even honest, based on the background check I did. But it seems I was wrong,’ she thought, any trace of lingering goodwill she might have had for Xavier vanishing entirely as if it had never
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 099 – Xavier’s Helplessness
*****Although Grace’s expression didn’t change after seeing Xavier incapable of responding to the question he was asked, her fists clenched slightly with so much fury as she suddenly regretted the mistake of giving her first time to him.Though she had regretted this from the moment it happened, she had kept trying to convince herself that he was at least better than the other men who were only interested in her looks. Especially recalling how he had stood up for her at the bar, and everything she’d learned about his past before he was sent to prison. But now, however, seeing him for what he really was—a liar, a braggart, and a shameless fraud, on top of being an ex-convict—she couldn't help but despise herself to the core, and suddenly... suddenly, she thought Xavier might have planned the incident at the bar.Though this was only a fledging thought, it grew stronger and stronger until finally, it became so believable that she couldn't take it off her mind again.In the next sec
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 100 – The Ruthless, Mysterious Mistress Ayra
***** "I knew you were somewhat different and mysterious from the first interaction I had with you, “ the figure of a beautifully shaped lady, seated behind a desk inside a dimly lit, shadowed room suddenly mumbled to herself, her expression distant and contemplative with a smug smile on her barely visible lips. Eventually, she snapped back to reality and lowered her gaze to the monitor in front of her, whose screen was providing the only light in the otherwise dark room, and carefully reread the oddly typed, somewhat encrypted message on it before finally, she couldn’t help but release a small sigh. “Never have I imagined that your level of secrecy and mysteriousness actually extends to having the strength needed to eliminate an E-rank fighter...” she whispered with a voice filled with awe, her eyes gleaming with a light that could make one’s skin crawl. Looking at the way she was muttering to herself, lost in her own thoughts, inside the dimly lit office that appeared empty save f
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 101 – Frosh and Jazzy’s Boss
*****"Have you heard the news?” A man in his mid-thirties, who currently has an indifferent expression on his icy face abruptly asked, slowly raising his head.Just at that moment, the door to the grand and somewhat dark-themed office, which radiated power and influence opened, and then Frosh carefully entered, looking extremely wary and deferential, a stark contrast to his usual arrogant, rude demeanor in the outside world.“Boss,” he first bowed his head respectfully to the man in the fine, expensive, and black suit, sitting behind the massive desk with a large cigarette between his fingers.“Yes boss, I just got the news that Jazzy was killed,” he cautiously reported with his head still bowed, but in the following second, a fleeting, calculating glint flashed in his eyes—something the man before him did not notice.The thirty-something authoritative man is Dominic, one of the terrifying and feared rulers of the underground network of Riverton City; Jazzy and Frosh’s boss.He
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 102 – Frosh Scheme
*****The silence in the office seemed to last an eternity before finally, Dominic, broke it.What did you just say?” he asked, his initial indifferent and icy expression crumbling.Heheheh!’ Frosh laughed inwardly at this but maintained his awkward demeanor.“It—it was Miss Grace. Grace Sky, Boss.”“This!” Dominic finally lost his composure, springing to his feet and glaring at Frosh, who instantly panicked.Who doesn’t know who Grace is to Dominic? She was the woman he had been slowly courting for some time now.Though he could have long gotten her by now if he wanted, he hadn’t because he desired not just her body but her heart, soul as well, and everything.But now…“Why would she do that?! Did that bastard Jazzy offend her?” he growled, his voice dark, menacing, and fierce, causing Frosh’s grin to pause.‘Huh!!!!’ he was dumbstruck by the latter part of his boss’s question.He stared dazedly at his boss for a moment, wondering how much he must have loved Grace to have
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 103 – The Magnificent Estate
*****Located at the very heart and core of Riverton City stood a breathtakingly gorgeous estate, one that seemed plucked straight directly from a fictional fantasy realm. Its magnificence was so extraordinary and magical to the extent that it seemed unreal even to the ones who saw it.It was surrounded by a softly glowing, luminous blue sea whose surface was impossibly smooth, like polished glass, reflecting a perfect mirror image of the sky above.This was OceanView Estate whose entire villas are so priceless and highly coveted by the most powerful elites in Riverton City that no one outside this exclusive circle could afford it.Its value, however, wasn’t solely due to its breathtaking beauty. What truly distinguished this estate, according to the public knowledge was a combination of factors, chief among them being its unparalleled security, which could render even the most notorious criminals and weakest entities invincible.There were also rumors that this estate maintained
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 104 - The Arrogant Butler
*****“Should… should I lower it?” Dorothy asked nervously, her eyes darting to Grace, whose calm facade was beginning to crack under the mounting pressure.She swallowed slightly, but finally nodded her head, her voice steady despite the tension. “You should.”Dorothy stared at her more but then she gritted her teeth and moved her hand toward the car’s door, lowering the windows with a trembling finger.In the next instant, they were met with the fierce, contemptuous glare of the arrogant-looking middle-aged man.Edgar peered into the car, and in the next moment, the sight of the cramped space filled with anxious, panicked faces made the anger on his face gradually fade, replaced by pure disgust and contempt.“How many times do you filthy peasants need to be warned to stay away from this place?” he sneered, his voice dripping with pure disdain. “Are you lot trying to taint the air with your presence?”“This…” Edgar’s words instantly sent shivers through the car, causing everyo

Chapter 484 – A Fleeting Recollection of a Forgotten, Unimportant Past
*****[ Promised bonus chapter. ]…….Everyone stood utterly still at this moment, staring in a daze at the crumbled walls and the settling cloud of debris.Just mere seconds ago, they had all come to the same grim conclusion—Vidor was going to strike and annihilate Little Lola without hesitation… his murderous intent had been crystal clear.Master Tush had been incensed beyond belief, veins bulging from his temples, and he had prepared to subject Vidor to a torment so excruciating for daring to go against his command.He had made up his mind to make Vidor beg for death. How dare he defy an explicit order?He had been on the brink of commanding his guards to seize Vidor, ready to deliver punishment with an iron hand.But before a single word could even leave his lips, Vidor had suddenly been flung away like a broken puppet, crashing through several reinforced walls.He had rocketed through the air with such speed and force that blood erupted from his mouth before he finally h
Chapter 483 – Vidor’s Confession II and His Sudden Dread
*****The silence that followed Vidor’s confession was utterly different.It wasn’t from a stunned awe. Instead, it was from a horror, everyone was unable to believe their ears.Even the most cold-hearted within the store… Master Tush felt a strong chill settle deep in his bones, his jaw dropping to the ground.Everyone stared at Vidor in a daze. Not as a man, but as something monstrous… something unhinged.No one made even the slightest trace of sound. It wasn't because they chose silence, but because none of them seemed to notice it at all.And this lasted for what felt like an eternity before finally…“You… you murdered Little Lola’s mother?” A fragile, trembling voice pierced through the silence, the words soaked in disbelief and thick with sorrow.Vidor slowly turned his head, and upon seeing the speaker, an aggressive look appeared on his face.“Yes!” he bellowed, his voice suddenly booming with twisted pride. “I gave her a slow, silent poison. After all, what use was s
Chapter 482 – Vidor’s Confession
*****“…can any of you even fathom it?!”Vidor’s gaze dimmed, the once-raging fire in his eyes momentarily flickering out as his voice dropped to a ghostly murmur. It was almost as if he were speaking to the ghosts of his past rather than the crowd before him.He gazed into the void with complete emptiness in his eyes, looking as though a painful memory had resurfaced and bound his soul to its torment.Anyone with even a trace of empathy could sense the sheer torment rippling through him. This wasn't mere regret… it was anguish that it cut deeply into him like a sharpened blade.“I… I was devastated,” he rasped, his voice fracturing like glass under pressure. “That day… I nearly collapsed. I genuinely thought the earth had crumbled beneath my feet.His body swayed, gripped by the phantom tremors of that day.“She was the most enchanting woman in our entire village,” Vidor continued, a twisted smile crawling up his face. “I loved her more than my own life, and I would have bled
Chapter 481– A Solved Puzzle, The Truth Behind Little Lola
*****[ Previously promised chapter. ]…..Xavier wasn’t the only one staggered beyond comprehension after hearing Vidor’s vicious and venomous response to his question.Every single soul present stood motionless, paralyzed by disbelief.It was as if thunder had struck and left their minds smoldering as Vidor’s words reverberated like the echo of a gunshot, searing through the air with ruthless clarity.The one most shaken… utterly demolished was none other than Little Lola.Though still a child in form, she possessed a mind far more developed than her peers, a maturity shaped not by love or nurture, but by the cruelty life had beaten into her. Her heart had been battered countless times, but never had it shattered so violently before.She gazed at Vidor—her so-called father in a daze, forgetting her earlier terror and apprehension. The man had terrorized her days, robbed her of food, snatched away every coin she ever had, hurled her out into the streets like worthless trash,
Chapter 480 – Madam Tush’s Venonous Words & Successfully Gaslighted
*****“For twenty godforsaken years, I’ve dedicated every breath to you, and yet the first time someone whispers poison in your ear, you turn on me like a rabid dog? You trusted a stranger… a violent, evil mongrel over me?”“I… I didn’t know what to believe—” Master Tush choked, utterly helpless, regretful, and frustrated right now. But before he could finish…“Oh shut up!” his wife snapped at him, her tone now brimming with venom.“You make me sick. You couldn’t even see what was right in front of you! Look at what he did to me! Look at the bruises, the bandages, the blood! And you DARED to hesitate? You call yourself a husband? You don’t deserve to kneel at my feet, much less call me your wife!”Each word was carved into Master Tush’s bloated pride like a jagged dagger. He lowered his head, his entire frame quivering with regret.“I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…” he muttered, his voice collapsing into itself.But Madam Tush was far from done.Her eyes blazed now… not with grief, bu
Chapter 479 – A Seasoned Manipulator
*****Madam Tush’s limbs began to fail her, her knees buckling as a wave of dread washed over her, crashing into her chest like a tidal wave.She staggered, her spine prickling with icy fear.She had been meticulous… frighteningly so over the years.She had constantly laced every smile, touch, and midnight whisper with deception. For years, she had hidden her betrayal beneath the façade of a devoted and faithful wife, wrapping herself in the illusion of love.She had played her role perfectly so that she would never be caught.She had done every single thing to hide her disgust for her husband, yet now…A violent tremor raced through Madam Tush’s body, and for the briefest moment, a flicker of guilt… raw and damning flashed across the visible part of her heavily made-up face. But then, her heart skipped a frantic beat.‘NOT NOW!’ Her mind screamed at her. ‘I can’t afford a single mistake right now. Not even a flinch nor a tear out of place.’Madam Tush forcefully calmed herse
Chapter 478 – Vidor and Madam Tush’s Terror (Previously promised Bonus Chapter)
*****(Previously promised Bonus Chapter)….Absolutely no one anticipated the venom Xavier spewed so suddenly.Not Master Tush, not the smug guards, not the trembling attendant, not the haughty Madam Tush—Not even Vidor, the worthless excuse of a man, whom Xavier had thrown his question at.They all stood paralyzed, their expressions frozen in time, stunned by the bombshell Xavier had casually dropped like a flaming meteor into their fragile reality.His words continued echoing through the store like a curse, sticking in the air and clearly haunting their thoughts.Seconds ticked by, feeling like eternal minutes.Then—“Wha… what kind of deranged filth just came out of your mouth?!”Both Vidor and Madam Tush shrieked simultaneously, their voices laced with unmistakable panic. It was as if they shared not just the same sin, but the same rotting soul.At that precise moment, both of them were internally crumbling.Vidor’s face was flushed crimson with dread. He knew exact
Chapter 477 – Xavier’s Question
*****Hearing Vidor’s offer, Madam Tush, who was still brimming with revenge, paused for a second, but then her lip curled into a vicious smirk, already imagining the scene painted by Vidor.Master Tush, on the other hand, blinked in surprise, his brow raised in bemused curiosity.‘Isn’t this scum her father?’ he thought.Xavier, meanwhile, narrowed his gaze.Of course, he had recognized Vidor the moment he saw him.How could he forget someone like that?This pathetic excuse for a father, who had always treated his daughter like dirt and filth unworthy of love or care.In fact, Xavier had been planning to sort his busy schedule and find this man… this coward and evil man who deserved nothing but scorn and pain.For a moment, time slowed. No one said a word.Then—Master Tush laughed. A cold, grating chuckle, devoid of humor or sanity.“Oh, this is going to be delightfully twisted,” he sneered. “I was going to make that child bleed regardless of your offer. But… if her path
Chapter 476 – Vidor’s Offer
*****Xavier had never anticipated that chaos would once again arrive during what should have been a simple, quiet purchase. All he had wanted was to buy the herbs, return home, prepare the restorative potion for his parents, and perhaps, for once, rest early.Now, with an aching jaw and nerves fraying at the edges, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.“I’ve had a long, soul-draining day already. I seriously don’t have the time or the patience for any of this idiocy again,” he muttered, his tone cold, heavy, and sharp like a serrated blade—so dark that it made the earlier tension in the room feel like a warm breeze in comparison.“You insolent mutt…”Master Tush’s face twisted into a snarl. His veins bulged, rage pulsing through his oversized frame like molten lava.“What the hell are you worthless meat sacks standing around for?! Break their bones already! Do your damn jobs!” he bellowed, each word saturated with venom.The two guards straightened instantly.Then, wit
