Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 177
***** The voice inquired coldly, greatly startling everyone and halting the police officers in their tracks. In the next second, all heads traced the voice, only to find Selene still crouched beside her husband, her body trembling with unrestrained fury. Right now, her crimson eyes which were completely focused on the landlord burned with hatred, her teeth grinding as though she couldn’t wait to crush him into dust with her sheer will alone. ‘This…’ the landlord’s heart skipped a beat at this sight and his eyes narrowed, but he was already used to a gaze like this, which only turns him on when it comes from the woman he’s interested in. A sly smirk quickly replaced his surprise and then; Yes?” he drawled, his tone laced with amusement and mischievousness. Hearing the response, Selene forced a deep breath, then sent a gaze filled with millions of unspoken words and emotions at her still-unconscious husband, she looked back at the landlord, and then clenched her teet
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 178
*****Although Darius’s men couldn’t determine God’s Time’s precise location—a fact that had deeply frustrated Xavier, knowing he could have done better if time hadn’t been against him—the person had identified the general area, and thinking that the rest would be easy from there, Xavier had informed Darius to drive him there.Unfortunately, however, neither of them could have anticipated what awaited them after nearly an hour's drive from the Blackwood estate.While Xavier had known that the old man might not be able to afford an apartment in a high-end neighborhood, he had never in his wildest dream anticipated where they had ended, a scene that had made his chest tighten, for it was nothing but a desolation.At first glance, they thought they’d arrived at a forsaken wasteland, an assumption that had sent Darius into a seething fury, making him immediately contact the tracking team, angrily scolding them for their incompetence and demanding a thorough re-check of the coordinates
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 179
*****“This…”For a brief, agonizing moment, the scene outside plunged into an eerie stillness, the only sound in the place, being Selene’s heart-wrenching sobs, which continued piercing through the suffocating night, her cries pulling every eye toward her trembling figure.This silence seemed to drag on, heavy and uncomfortable for what felt like an eternity before eventually, the crowd began to shift their gazes—first to Xavier, then back to Selene, uncertainty and unease etched on their faces, until finally…“Sigh.”The neighbors, still sprawled in their blood and on their battered bodies, exchanged glances filled with bitter regret and helplessness, each person knowing deep down that no authority, not even a senior officer, would be able to challenge the iron grip the landlord held over this wretched place.As for Selene, not knowing what everyone where thinking, continued weeping desperately and louder, pleading for Xavier to help her.She had been convinced that Xavier wa
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 180
*****For a long, tense moment after Xavier was done speaking, no one was able to react. They continued gawking at him in a stunned silence, his calm yet weighty words reverberating like a divine decree through the air.Although his words seemed casual, they carried the weight of something spoken by a divine being, full of promise, power, and an unbreakable oath.It was as if the place, despite being filled with nearly a hundred people, was in complete silence—so still that the sound of an ant moving could be heard by everyone. This silence seemed to last forever, but eventually...“What a grand claim,” a mocking voice suddenly cut through, dripping with derision, deeply startling everyone, and upon looking, it belonged to the landlord, who was currently gazing at Xavier as though he were a clown right now.Without changing his expression, Xavier met the old man's gaze, and in the next moment, the old man continued."Just by looking at your cheap clothes, something I wouldn’t ev

*****Without pausing or hesitating, the officer prepared to strike Xavier, thickening the air with dread and causing everyone's hearts to tremble, especially Selene’s.She could already foresee the inevitable—that the same brutal beating that had been inflicted upon her husband was about to claim another victim, her husband's friend.Desperation surged through her in an instant and she subconsciously raised a trembling hand, ready to plead for Xavier’s life.Tears blurred her vision as she opened her mouth to cry out, but just then, however;“Stand down.”A sudden voice echoed, slicing through the tension like a whip.Although it was casual, almost playful, it seemed to carry an undercurrent of authority that directly silenced the chaos, also making the officer, who was on the verge of reaching Xavier stop in his tracks.He had been planning to make a good impression of himself from the landlord, thereby getting one step ahead of his colleague, but now…A sudden chill seemed
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 182
*****Still in the depths of the slum.At this moment, every eye was fixated on Xavier, their stares wide and unblinking as if he were some sort of otherworldly being.The weight of his earlier icy and defiant words to the landlord continued hanging thick in the air, leaving even the landlord himself frozen in place.‘What... what just happened?’ he finally wondered in his mind after what felt like an eternity had passed, still struggling to comprehend what had just transpired.The fear that had enveloped him just now was so sudden. It was as if he had been faced by a demon who was ready to reap his life, making him break out in a cold sweat, leaving his back soaked.Although the sensation had vanished as quickly as it had come, the lingering terror it left behind was far too overwhelming to be easily forgotten, and with this, the moment seemed to stretch on endlessly until, at last, an embarrassment he couldn’t control began to creep in.‘Was… was I really just intimidated by
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 183
*****Xavier and Darius frowned at this scene. But before they could react, however, the landlord waved dismissively, his tone dripping with derision.“I’ve already wasted more than enough time on you pests tonight, and If I weren’t already so tired, I would have loved to learn to source of your arrogance that made a worm like yourself think you can be rude to me. But lucky for you, I value my sleep more than your existence.” he uttered, and then glared venomously at Xavier for a moment, really regretting that he couldn’t teach him a lesson he would never forget.The old man snorted at this and then yawned again and eventually, his gaze shifted to Selene, who was still kneeling on the ground.“And you!” he barked, his voice sharp and cold, making Selene flinch, her face pale as she subconsciously looked up.“You bitch dared to sell me out and still had the audacity to call that useless piece of garbage your husband even though you have already agreed to be my concubine?” he fumed
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 184
*****Although Xavier’s voice was so calm, emotionless, and quiet, it managed to cut through the place as though it were a hot knife, cutting through a nylon, causing all hearts to skip a beat.All except Darius continued gaping dazedly at him, their mouths wide agape as though wanting to catch swarms of bees, all of them finding it difficult to believe their ears.This silence of shock lasted for what felt like an eternity, before eventually;“Does… does that mean he’s not backing down? Even after the landlord had explicitly said he wouldn’t punish him?” A voice dripping with disbelief echoed, jolting everyone back to their senses and they hurriedly shut their mouths and exchanged dumbstruck gazes.Everyone began to murmur, while the landlord and Selene…Although the silence had already been shattered, the two refused to return to their senses, both still gaping at Xavier in stunned silence.‘He… did he really mean his words?’‘Is he going to challenge the landlord even after

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
Chapter 475 – The Vicious Couple
*****The icy venom laced in Master Tush’s words, combined with the suffocating wave of murderous intent hanging in the air, made Xavier pause, appearing utterly perplexed at this moment.Before him stood an absurd scene—one that would’ve been hilarious had it not been soaked in genuine seriousness.On one side was a woman wrapped head-to-toe in white bandages like a half-burnt mummy, and beside him was a morbidly obese middle-aged man dressed entirely in gaudy gold, from his overstuffed silk robes to his glittering loafers that screamed nouveau riche.For a moment, Xavier could only blink.‘What the hell are these two? Two villains cosplay? Are they role-playing Pharaoh and Queen of Gluttony?’ he thought sarcastically, but the heaviness in the air told him it was no joke.That suffocating pressure… the bone-chilling bloodlust…They were serious.Deadly serious.But then suddenly, a memory clicked.He vaguely recalled seeing a young thug earlier, upon walking into the store
Chapter 474 – Madam Tush’s Paic
*****Just as Madam Tush was going to take matters into her own hands… literally:“Wife, I beg of you—please,” Master Tush gasped, panting as though he’d just clawed his way out of a collapsed mine.Sweat poured from his bloated face like a ruptured dam, soaking the collar of his tailored shirt as his massive chest heaved up and down, threatening to split his ribs.Madam Tush paused, then twisted her neck toward her husband, her gaze as sharp as a serpent's fang.Her entire being radiated blistering malice, her hatred boiling over like molten steel. Despite her bandaged frame and the façade of injury, her eyes burned with one singular obsession—revenge.“Don’t you dare try to stop me!” she snarled aggressively, her voice coarse and jagged like broken glass.Master Tush froze at the venom in his wife’s voice. He was stunned momentarily. But then he exhaled a frustrated breath that trembled through his thick lips.“I know what they did was disgraceful. I know you were humiliated
Chapter 473 - Madam Tush’s Fury
*****Meanwhile, unaware of the hell that had just been unleashed and fast approaching him, Xavier stood quietly inside the city's largest herbal emporium, side by side with the delicately dressed Little Lola.She looked like a porcelain princess—doll-like in appearance, innocent in demeanor. Standing close to Xavier, her tiny fingers clutched the hem of his shirt gently.Xavier, however, had completely lost his usual composure. The calm, collected aura that typically surrounded him had vanished, replaced by a look of awe and unfiltered desire.His sharp eyes scanned every shelf, every ornate cabinet, and every diagram plastered across the walls. The illustrations of rare herbs—from the commonly known to the mythical—danced before him.But it wasn’t the visuals that had stolen his attention.It was the smell.The store was suffused with the concentrated fragrance of ancient flora—earthy, rich, medicinal.It was soothing yet invigorating, the kind of scent that made one’s blood
Chapter 472 – Vidor’s Relief and Plan for Revenge
*****Still, inside the lavish, oppressively decadent office, a suffocating silence hung like a storm cloud as all eyes locked onto the trembling thug who had just barged in.Every breath felt frozen, and every heartbeat deafening. No one moved, no one blinked. And the air seemed to have solidified, trapping everyone in an eerie still frame.They found it hard to process his words for a moment until finally…“Did… did you just say…” Vidor’s voice cracked, hoarse, and laced with disbelief, “That the two fugitives… whom we’ve ransacked the entire city for… are here?”His words shattered the silence like a hammer to glass.The thug visibly flinched, and his throat bobbed as he struggled to swallow the lump of fear rising in it.Ultimately, he turned his head very slowly and mechanically, only to be met with an ocean of eyes—every one of them piercing, merciless, and glinting with lethal impatience. The weight of those stares crashed into him like a tsunami.His breath quickened,
Chapter 471 – Vidor’s Desperation
*****Vidor’s mouth opened, but no words would come out. Instead, his throat constricted with panic.He wanted to cry, to scream, to beg—but all he managed to do was a strangled gasp.He had combed through every slum in the entire city.He had hunted every place.And he had mobilized every contact he could get every snitch, and every rat in the underground.Desperation had driven him mad, and he had offered rewards, even going to the extent of offering his own daughter as a prize to anyone who could locate her, offering her body to be used however the finder desired.But even that vile bait had yielded no results.“I… I…” Vidor stammered hoarsely, tears prickling the corners of his eyes.His rage toward his daughter flared even more, and he felt like seeing and tearing her apart.‘That little witch! I should have drowned you to death at birth…’But now, regret was a luxury he could not afford, because kneeling before him was the embodiment of torment, known even in the unde
Chapter 470 – Vidor’s Fear
*****Inside the taxi, neither Sarah nor David could collect their thoughts. Instead, the echo of their son's words reverberated endlessly in their minds.’50 million dollars, pocket change?’That statement alone had shattered every preconceived notion they once held.They had wanted to scold Xavier.They had wanted to scream at him and demand answers.They had been moments away from unleashing a storm of disbelief.Fifty million dollars wasn’t just money—it was legacy. A fortune that some powerful, wealthy families have spent generations building.With that sum, you could purchase your dream mansion, a fleet of exotic cars, even a private jet, and never lift a finger in labor again.That amount could build a business empire… yet their son had spoken of it like it was spare lunch money.He had spoken too casually, calmly, and utterly unshaken.It was as though he were referring to pocket lint.By the time the family of four eventually arrived at Villa Number One, neither p
