The Billionaire's Genius Wife

After removing her wig, Scarlett left the bedroom and saw Xander waiting for her in the living room. He seemed immersed in typing something on his phone and paid no attention to her.

Scarlett stood staring at him from afar for a moment—deliberately getting him to finish his work.

She realized Xander must leave behind his job and wanted to spend one day with her. She felt a little guilty for agreeing to this trip because today is a weekday!

After seeing Xander finish typing, Scarlett moved forward. And, when she was a few steps away from him, Xander became aware of her presence. He lifted his head and smiled at her.

"You look so beautiful with your long hair, Scarlett! You know that, right!?" Xander said lovingly, while he couldn't take his eyes off her. This girl was actually capable of putting him under her spell!

"I know!" Scarlett felt slightly awkward being stared at like that by Xander. "...that's why I use a wig so that not many people see my real appearance!" Scarlett was lying. The real reason was for her safety.

Scarlett seldom appears in public places with her original appearance, afraid that someone will take pictures of her — it would jeopardize her other identity.

"Hahaha... Well, for that, I agree with you, babe! You'd better never appear before other men like this without me beside you! Alright, let's take a walk around town..." He stood up from his seat and held her hand.

This was the first time Scarlett saw Xander laughing happily, and it made her even more stunned to see how handsome he was.

Since they decided to tear up the marriage agreement, Xander was much more friendly and cheerful. He's now much different from the aura he had when they first met on island B.

There was no longer that 'Ice Prince' aura at him. And, for that, Scarlett could not stop being grateful. At least their relationship is now headed on the right path. Just like she always dreamed of. To have the man she loves to be her companion and vice versa.

Even though there was still a slight doubt in her mind whether they would still be together ten months from now!

Well...

For now, she would put those thoughts aside from her mind. She would only enjoy every moment with Xander and not overthink their future.

Later, they both left the house.

Today's temperature was pleasant; The sun shone brightly, but the air was neither hot nor cold. It is perfect for spending time outdoors and enjoying the natural beauty.

Together, they decide to walk around the town, considering the city is not too big, and all the facilities are in the same place, Main Street. It has a great view of the beautiful lake.

After walking a mile, they stopped by the lake and sat on one of the park benches. They enjoyed the scenery unfolding before their eyes while discussing business and personal matters.

They had known each other for over a month but never once spoke about their true selves — especially Scarlett.

"Tell me more about yourself, Scarlett..." She saw the serious look in his eyes for the first time today.

At first, Scarlett felt reluctant to talk about it. Still, given the progress of their relationship, she finally agreed to share with him.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Scarlett stared at him before saying, "...Didn't you do my background check, Xander??" Her tone appears to tease him rather than upset him.

There's no way Xander Riley would marry some random woman without doing a background check, right!?

Xander's smiling face suddenly turned tense, but he felt relieved when she smiled playfully.

"Hahaha, you got me, babe!! That's right, I did that... However, you should know that the information about you on the internet is fake, right?" His words were like a blow to her head.

'Geez!! He knows!?' She was talking to herself while shaking her head slowly. She didn't rush to answer his curiosity but looked ahead at the lake.

After a few seconds of silence, Scarlett finally said, "What do you mean, Xander?"

Before Xander opened his mouth, Scarlett continued, "...well, to be honest with you, I considered myself an introvert. So, the information available is only the basics recorded in the government database. I didn't like to post anything on the internet."

Xander nods in agreement with her. When he investigated her, he could not find her social media accounts. And this makes him even more curious because it's rare to find people who are free from social media in today's sophisticated era.

"I have social media, but I didn't use my real identity..." Scarlett said again as if to answer his doubts. On her social media, Scarlett only posts about food. Well, it was priceless for her Food Slave Guild.

"I know! But why aren't there any after-you-grow-up photos out there? Even your university photos used old photos. How can you explain that?" Xander asked curiously.

He suspected that this girl had someone behind her — hiding her identity. However, something bothers his mind; why was her identity classified!? Does she belong to a secret organization or something?

Until now, he had been curious about the reason but had not had the chance to ask her.

"Huh! Really? I don't know about that. Maybe my unprofessional campus administration uploaded my old photos..." She said it with a surprised tone, but inside, she wanted to cry.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom 'Can we skip this conversation?' She muttered to herself while turning her face elsewhere, worried that Xander would find out if she was lying. In fact, she was the one who did that, changing her photo in her campus database.

Xander chuckled inwardly. He knew this girl was lying. He no longer tried to ask her; he would wait until she would be honest.

"What do you want for our lunch?" asked Xander after they started walking.

Along the way, they passed several restaurants, cafes, and hotels. Scarlett's eyes finally fixed on the Korean restaurant at the end of the street.

"I'm not a picky eater! But, if you ask me, I'd pick that restaurant..."

"Okay, let's go!!" He held her hand while walking to the restaurant.
