The Billionaire's Genius Wife



After considering it, Scarlett decided that meeting her uncle, Noah Withers, was the most practical choice for now. Despite the tight security surrounding him, she was determined to find a way to meet him.

Scarlett's heart raced as she glanced at the clock on her laptop screen. She knew that if she wanted to see Noah Withers, now was her chance. Xander was in his office, and she could return before him.

It was a risk, but Scarlett was willing to take it. Her uncle's schedule had been her saving grace. He was leaving for a business trip tomorrow, so today was the only day she had to meet Noah.

Excitement coursed through her veins as she would finally meet the man she had only found out about these past few days. Scarlett didn't know what to expect, but that only added to the thrill she felt right now.

She took a deep breath, grabbed her backpack, and left her hotel room. She went to her uncle's penthouse, her heart pounding louder with every step. The apartment building can be reached on foot. She walks fast to that building.

Scarlett knew she had to be careful and ensure no one followed her. She glanced over her shoulder, relieved that Xander's bodyguard was nowhere in sight. She didn't want anyone to know about her meeting with Noah. She didn't want to cause any suspicion, especially with her mother's enemy. 

Despite her attempts at disguising herself, Scarlett always worried someone would recognize her. Even though she didn't look like her mother, there were still similarities and she was sure anyone who had known her mother would see the resemblance.

She quickened her pace, her heart racing with excitement. As she approached the apartment building, Scarlett took a deep breath and reminded herself to stay calm.

Empire Apartment. 

Noah Withers stepped out of the Black Maybach, followed by his assistant carrying his bag. As he made his way toward the special elevator, his phone rang. He picked it up and spoke for a moment before disconnecting the call.

"Sir, let me bring it upstairs," the assistant said, referring to the bag.

"No, that won't be necessary. You can go home now," Noah replied, taking the bag from his assistant.

The assistant looked surprised but didn't say anything. He bowed slightly and left as soon as the elevator doors closed.

Noah began to ascend to his unit, but as he stepped inside his dark house, a strange feeling washed over him. He sensed something was off. Without hesitation, he retrieved his gun from the bag, holding it steady as he surveyed the dimly lit room.

He walked with his usual high level of alertness. However, inwardly he cursed the security of the building. How could they not have noticed someone breaking into his apartment?

His mind racing, he tightened his grip on his gun and cautiously made his way into the dark living room. Suddenly, he spotted a shadowy figure near the glass wall, her back facing him.

"Who are you? How did you get into this place?" Noah demanded, pointing his gun at the woman.

Scarlett smiled as she watched her uncle pointing his gun at her through the reflection on the glass wall. Despite the danger, she couldn't help but feel proud of her uncle's sharp instincts.

'Indeed! Withers' blood flows strong in my uncle's veins!' she thought, admiring Noah Withers's quick reflexes. 'He knew I was here the moment he entered his house!'

Once her uncle stopped a few steps behind her, Scarlett turned to face him. Despite the dim lighting, she could clearly see his handsome features. His dark brown hair reminded her of her mother. And to her surprise, his eyes were very much like her mother's.

A smile crept across Scarlett's face as she looked at her uncle. "You look so handsome!" she couldn't help but compliment him, noticing his masculine features.

Noah's conflicted emotions as he watched Scarlett walk past him and sit on the couch. His mind was in chaos as he tried to reconcile the image of this calm and collected intruder with the fact that she was breaking into his home.

"Who are you? And why did you break into my property?" he asked, his voice heavy with suspicion.

Scarlett smiled calmly, seemingly unfazed by the gun pointed at her head. "You can kill me after we talk," she replied, her voice steady and clear.

Noah was taken aback by her boldness, and for a moment, he hesitated. But something about her demeanor and her voice stirred something deep within him, something he couldn't quite put his finger on.

Scarlett chuckled when she saw Noah freeze in place, still pointing his gun at her. "What are you waiting for?" she said, teasing him. "Please take a seat, Mr. Noah Withers."

Noah was even more confused now that she had addressed him by name. How did she know who he was? Everyone knew how ruthless the Withers family could be, yet this girl had dared to enter his home and threaten him.

As Noah reluctantly sat across from her, he couldn't help but wonder what her intentions were. But as he looked into her eyes, he knew he couldn't harm her. There was something about her that drew him in.

"Did that man send you to see me?" Noah Withers' voice was cold. His eyes fell on the girl in front of him. He was even more curious when he saw this girl up close. Her body shape and face were similar to someone he loved very much. And her voice is also similar to that girl's.

'Is this her?' 

Noah's mind was in turmoil as he considered the possibility that the girl in front of him could be her.

Instantly, Noah's heart raced faster at the thought of something that couldn't possibly happen — it's impossible his sister, Rosalie, entered this country without being noticed. But, considering how that girl can do so, there's little wish this was real. It's her younger sister, Rosalie Withers.

Scarlett's smile faded as she saw the worry and suspicion in Noah's eyes. She took a deep breath and tried to explain...
