The Billionaire's Genius Wife



After Rex finished sending short messages to Seven, he returned with his cell phone still connected to Xander.

Rex updated Xander on Scarlett's current condition. Although relieved to hear she was alright, Xander couldn't help but worry about her mental and physical state.

"Thank you, Rex. I truly appreciate your kindness and help in this matter," Xander expressed his gratitude to his friend.

"It's not a problem, but I hope this is the last time I hear of a situation like this. If it happens again, I won't stay silent," Rex warned Xander, his tone serious.

Rex can't blame Scarlett for running away from her problems. He doesn't entirely blame Xander either, even though he thinks Xander made a mistake in hiring Zoey Warner as his secretary after what happened in the past.

Xander spoke with earnest determination, "I promise you, Rex, there won't be a second time. Trust me." He knew that he couldn't let something like this happen again. 

The thought of losing contact with Scarlett for just a day had driven Xander nearly insane, and he couldn't bear the idea of losing her forever. He shuddered at the mere thought of it. He couldn't let that happen.

After ending his phone call with Rex, Xander wasted no time and immediately left his apartment. He needed to quickly return to Astington before going to Country X to catch up with his wife.

Xander knows that Scarlett flew to that country — thanks to Rex — and learns of her plans to confront the Withers family. He was afraid that his wife would make a mistake and could harm herself. He couldn't let anything go wrong. 

The thought of something happening to her made Xander shudder, and he knew he would never forgive himself if she got hurt!

As soon as Xander got into the car, he instructed the driver to head straight to the airport. 

Sitting beside the driver, Ben couldn't help but notice the sudden change in Xander's demeanor. His boss had looked so gloomy earlier, but now his face was calm, and the light in his eyes seemed to glow.

Ben glanced at Xander through the rearview mirror, wondering if Xander had found his wife's location. Since the previous day, they had been perplexed by Scarlett's disappearance following Zoey's incident. That's why they had come to this city to meet Rex Morrison.

"Boss, did you find Young Madam?" Ben couldn't resist his curiosity and had to ask Xander about the outcome of his meeting with Rex Morrison.

Looking out the window, Xander turned his attention to Ben and calmly replied, "Yes, I found her location!" His voice was tinged with relief and joy. "...We're headed back to Astington. And, Ben, you have two hours to prepare everything before we take off again."

"Take off again?" Ben was taken aback by Xander's words. "Is Young Madam in another city?"

"No! She's in another country, Country X. We're flying there as soon as I finish my work!" Xander took a deep breath. "You can call our people there and ask them to prepare everything. We'll probably be staying there for a week or so..." 

Xander had planned to accompany Scarlett as she delved into her mother's past. He couldn't let her do it alone.

"WHAT!! Young Madam is flying to Country X?" Ben was shocked. No wonder they had lost her; she had moved countries so quickly. How could she do that?

Still bewildered, Ben suddenly remembered Xander's orders to investigate the Withers family, who were connected to Scarlett's mother.

Ben's body tensed up. Did Young Madam really go there alone to investigate her mother's past? How brave she was! They wouldn't even dare to act rashly because of the Withers family's reputation in the underworld of Country X.

"Hmm...yes, she is! That's why you need to prepare our team both here and there. Their main purpose is to look after my wife," Xander explained to Ben what he needed to do to prepare.

Xander could fly directly to Country X as a visa to enter the country had never been a problem. Still, he had some pending work to finish before leaving the country. 

This time, Xander intended to accompany Scarlett at X until her business with the Withers was finished. No matter how long it will take.

"Consider it done, boss!" Ben said, immediately contacting the people he needed to, including Logan.

...

Meanwhile, in Astington,

Logan is still looking for Scarlett's whereabouts. He felt exhausted, but he couldn't stop trying to find her. His mind was too busy thinking about her.

However, Logan had reached a point where he felt compelled to rest his eyes. He couldn't continue driving with the sudden drowsiness that overtook him, right? He immediately parked in a supermarket parking lot that had not yet opened and closed his eyes for a quick sleep.

Logan's phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket as he was about to doze off. With quick reflexes, he took out his phone and saw a message from Ben.

Logan's eyes widened as he read the message from Ben:

[Ben: ] Logan, please prepare yourself and the team. We will fly to Country X in four hours.

"Country X? Why do we have to fly there?" Logan muttered to himself as he typed a reply to Ben's message.

[Logan: ] Why are we going there? Did Master Xander find any traces of Young Madam there?

[Ben: ] Yes! I will talk to you soon. We are about to depart!

Logan's face, which had looked stiff and cold since yesterday, suddenly brightened. A warm smile, as warm as spring, appeared at the corners of his lips.

Finally, their search ended. They found her!

****

Meanwhile, in the capital city of Country X, Scarlett woke up with a sore body. It felt like she had just finished the IronMan triathlon race. 

As she stared at the ceiling and squinted her eyes at the light, she tried to recall what had happened before she fell asleep. Suddenly, she remembered, and her eyes widened with shock.

"Damn it! I should call Xander right now!" Without thinking twice, her body reflexively jumped out of bed and frantically searched for her cell phone.
