Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 189
*****It was as if the souls of everyone present had been ripped from their bodies right now, leaving behind lifeless bodies.No one moved, not the landlord, not Selene, not the two still-baffled officers, and the stunned crowd.Every single person other than Darius had been so sure that Xavier was finished—that he’d be pummeled into an unrecognizable heap, or, if fortune favored him, left a cripple. But the reality before them was a brutal contradiction.Their eyes continued darting from the four immobile bodies on the ground to Xavier, who continued standing calm and unarmed, and back again, bewilderment twisting their faces. At the same time, their minds raced with different questions they had no idea how to voice.This suspended moment seemed to drag on for what felt like a torturous eternity until, eventually,“I’ve always heard that people tend to become nice once they are nearing their graves,” a sudden calm, emotionless, and unhurried voice echoed, slicing through the si
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 190
*****It took only a short moment for the two officers, who had been broken-hearted about their poor luck to realize the task given to them, and with this, their entire being became filled with joy.‘Hehehe… the patient dog does eat the fat bone,’ one of them thought joyfully, the two sending mocking gazes at their four unmoving colleagues and then looking playfully at Xavier for a second, before suddenly;"He’s mine!" the larger of the two, who had wanted to attack Xavier a moment ago, growled, his humiliation from earlier fueling his fury, then not waiting for his partner’s response, he lunged at Xavier, his movements wild and filled with vicious intent.“This…” the second officer became furious and then…“Not if I get him first!” he snapped, charging after his colleague with rage.Perhaps the two were blinded by the lure of the reward or just too stupid, but they never bothered thinking about what had happened to their four colleagues again after the mission had been transfer
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 191
*****For what felt like an eternity, no one was able to react. They stood frozen, staring in a trans, their mouths agape and their eyes almost popping out of their sockets with sheer disbelief.It was as though they were witnessing the impossible—the sight of a corpse that had long been buried and forgotten, clawing its way out of the grave.Aside from the anguished screams of the figure writhing frantically in the dirt, an oppressive silence hung over the scene right now. It felt as though the very definition of sound itself had vanished, leaving the onlookers ensnared in an unsettling, suffocating stillness.This persisted until, eventually;“What... what just happened?” someone stammered, their trembling voice echoing the unspoken question lingering in every mind, and as soon as everyone heard him, their eyes turned to the still expressionless Xavier, their stares heavy with a blend of fear and suspicion.It was as if he were a sort of nightmarish being pulled straight from
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 192
*****Still in the middle of the night, within the decaying slum.Although an hour or so had crawled since the fatty old landlord had made his desperate call to his son, no one dared to stir or even whisper. Not the wary neighbors. Not the battered officer nursing his crushed arm. Not Selene. Not a single soul.They continued to stare in absolute silence, the tension in the air pressing down like an invisible weight so palpable that some struggled to draw air into their lungs.However, amidst this smothering atmosphere, Xavier remained calm.He stood motionless, his arms folded across his chest, and his expression unreadable as he watched the arrogant, mockery, and heartless smirk plastered across the landlord's face as if he had no idea what was going through the other party’s mind.To be sincere, Xavier wasn’t even going to the old man a moment ago like the obese landlord and everyone else had assumed.That’s right.While he greatly despised and loathed the old man’s cruelty

*****"His… son is here—with so many entourages!?! " the neighbors sat frozen in terror, staring dazedly at the commotion caused by the vehicles.This lasted for what felt like an eternity before eventually, a shared instinct for survival took over them and without hesitation, they leaped to their feet in a frenzy, desperate to escape.Before they could turn to flee in different directions, the thunderous roar of the approaching engines extinguished any hope of escape. Then the drivers, showing no concern for their vehicles, charged forward with an air of absolute dominance, as if they owned the world.In an instant, more than five police cruisers and a sleek, intimidating SUV closed in around the crowd.As soon as this happened, the atmosphere grew heavy with tension, and the onlookers felt their breath catch, trapped between their lungs and throats as if the gravity of the moment had robbed them of the ability to breathe.They watched in stunned, fearful silence as the officer
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 194
*****No one moved or spoke for what felt like an eternity after Barth had crashed down.Not Selene, not the neighbors crowding the street, not the assembled police officers, and most certainly not the landlord, whose wrathful fantasies of vengeance against Xavier and anyone tied to him had abruptly evaporated into thin air right now.They all remained rooted in place, their eyes transfixed on Barth, who remained trembling on the ground, his entire body quaking as if he had come face-to-face with the embodiment of his worst nightmare.The oppressive silence stretched on, suffocating and unbroken for what felt like an eternity, until eventually, the landlord finally forced himself to return to his senses, then swallowing audibly, he jabbed a pudgy finger at his son, his voice trembling with a mix of disbelief, shock, and nervousness.“Son… are… are you all right?” he stammered, and as soon as the crowd heard him, they collectively leaned forward, their ears straining to catch Bart
Rise From Prison: Married To A Beautiful CEO Chapter 195
*****“This…” A collective gasp finally rippled through the crowd after what felt like an eternity had passed, shattering the heavy silence as all eyes locked on the old landlord, who remained sprawled face-first in the dirt.“What… what just happened?” Someone stuttered, refusing to believe their eyes.Even the obese old man stayed frozen in shock, to the extent that he wasn’t able to spit out the gritty soil invading his mouth.Although he hadn’t seen the culprit when he fell, the truth now struck him like a cruel joke. It was his son’s foot—his own son’s foot—that had caused his humiliation.‘This can’t be real,’ he thought, his mind whirling in denial.‘My son wouldn’t trip me to make such a huge joke of me!’‘Even if he did, it must not be intentional! Definitely not!’A storm of conflicting thoughts churned in his mind, each more absurd than the last, and this lasted for what felt like an eternity before he finally forced himself to lift his gaze to Barth, expecting some

*****“Just shut the fuck up already, you old fat idiot!”A sudden thunderous roar echoed, shattering the tense atmosphere like a crack of lightning, leaving everyone stunned, their ears ringing from the sheer force of it.“This!” The landlord froze mid-sentence, his words evaporating as an icy wave swept over him, leaving the entire ground paralyzed in suffocating silence. Following this, a collective shiver rippled through the crowd, the oppressive air making even the boldest hesitate.The overweight old man had known the police leader for years and, thanks to his son's influence, he had never received anything from the other party other than respect and favor, the police leader consistently treated him as someone superior in every regard, almost servility, making all his men available at any time of the day, even himself. Yet now...“You… You… you really dare to speak to me like that?” he finally stuttered after a moment of staring dazedly, his voice trembling with disbelief a

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
Chapter 469 – A Bragging-like Response
*****For a few seconds after the ladies were gone, a stillness blanketed the family.No one spoke, no one reacted, and then suddenly, a soft, innocent voice broke through the silence like a gentle ripple across a calm lake.“Grandma?”The three adults jolted slightly and glanced down.Little Lola stood between them, her big, round eyes blinking up at Sarah with visible concern.“Why did that beautiful big sister’s face suddenly turn red? Is she feeling unwell?” she asked earnestly, her voice laced with concern and pure curiosity.In the following second…Cough! Cough!All three adults choked simultaneously on air, clearly caught off guard by the child’s pointed observation. They exchanged mortified glances, unsure of how to respond.Sarah coughed again, then quickly composed herself. “Ah, sweetheart… I think the weather was a bit too warm for her, that’s all,” she said, forcing a smile.Little Lola, however, tilted her head thoughtfully. “But the weather’s kinda cold thoug
Chapter 468 – Miss Aria’s Peculiar Feeling
*****Still, amidst the bustling activity of the luxury shopping complex’s parking lot, where high-end vehicles glistened like jewels under the soft glow of the setting sun, Miss Aria remained motionless, her eyes fixed on Xavier as though entranced.A peculiar feeling stirred within her, one she hadn’t experienced before in her life.Should she call it curiosity? No, it seemed to be beyond that. Should she call it love? NoWhile she had never fallen in love before, she understood perfectly that what she was feeling wasn’t love. So, what could it be?On the other hand, Xavier, acutely aware of Aria’s lingering gaze on himself, turned his head slightly and met her eyes for a fleeting second. Then his brows furrowed subtly.‘What’s with that look?’ he mused in silence, a flicker of confusion dancing across his features. Yet, rather than dwell on it, he dismissed the thought and returned to his internal deliberations.‘Not owning a car really is a hassle…’ Xavier scowled to hims
Chapter 466 – A Misunderstanding
*****By the time the family of four finally departed from the High Fashion boutique, with both Amelia and Miss Aria personally escorting them to the exit, the sun had begun to dip low on the horizon.It was early evening, close to four o’clock, and golden light spilled across the luxurious parking lot, casting elongated shadows on the polished pavement.“May I ask where your vehicle is parked? I’d like to help load these,” Amelia inquired politely, her arms brimming with shopping bags filled to the top with the few high-end clothes Xavier had casually requested.The family had repeatedly insisted that she need not concern herself, saying they would handle the bags themselves. However, both Amelia and her supervisor had firmly declined that offer, practically pleading for the privilege of serving them just a little more.With no choice left, the family had reluctantly accepted their help.As Amelia glanced around the rows of gleaming, top-of-the-line vehicles parked outside, Xav
