The Billionaire's Genius Wife



It was 6 pm, and Xander was waiting for Scarlett to get dressed before they headed over to Theodor's residence for dinner. He stood by the glass window, gazing at the street below. His mind was consumed with thoughts, oblivious to the fact that Scarlett had just emerged from the bedroom.

"Xander," Scarlett called out to him, approaching with a graceful step. "I'm ready. Shall we go now?" she said, standing beside him.

When Xander's eyes fell on Scarlett, he was struck speechless. She hadn't donned her usual disguise. Her long red hair cascaded down her back, accentuating her natural beauty, and she no longer concealed the mesmerizing color of her eyes.

Furrowing his brow, he couldn't help but comment, "Babe, did you forget something?" he asked, curious. 

Scarlett checked her saddlebag and confirmed that her wallet and phone were safely inside. "I don't think so. Everything's here," she replied, showing Xander her bag, unaware that he was referring to something else.

"You didn't put on your wig and contact lenses?" Xander clarified.

A smile of realization spread across Scarlett's face. "Xander, starting today, I no longer need to wear a wig or contact lenses," she paused, captivated by the joy emanating from Xander's eyes and the smile that graced his lips. "So, we can go now, with me looking like this," she said, gesturing from head to toe, radiating happiness.

"Really?" Xander exclaimed happily. However, a thought crossed his mind, and his expression gradually turned grave. "Babe, what about the person who's been hunting you?" he asked seriously.

Xander feared for his wife's safety, wishing he knew the identity of the person who tried to catch his wife, so he could eliminate them and ensure they would never exist in this world.

"Everything is settled, Xander..." Scarlett said, her voice soothing. "He is no longer a threat."

Despite her reassurances, Xander couldn't shake off his uneasy feelings. He still doubts that the situation hadn't been resolved. Taking her hand, he pulled her into his embrace, holding her tightly for a moment.

As he rested his head atop hers, Xander said in an intense tone, "Baby, please tell me the person's name. I'll take care of him and ensure he never appears before you again. Forever!"

Scarlett almost choked hearing his words. 

'Oh, my dear... If only you knew that person was your best friend. I doubt you'd feel the same way!' She desperately wanted to voice her thoughts but held back, mustering only a smile to convince him that everything was fine.

"Xander, thank you. But trust me, that person will never repeat their actions. Just imagine them as if they were already gone and reborn with a new, kind soul..." Her grin widened as she gently wrapped her hand around him.

"Okay, I'm glad that guy has given up now! And now, finally, you can go anywhere without using your disguise again..." He hugs her, feeling happy!

"Hmm... I'm so happy!" 

"Alright, let's go!!" Xander said and they immediately left the house.

***

Xander and Scarlett were in the car on their way to Theodor's villa. 

During the drive, Scarlett couldn't help but feel curious about the relationship between Xander and Theodor. She knew that Xander had spent his teenage years and college in the USA, but she had never heard of him staying for an extended period in M Country.

"How did you meet Theodor, Xander?" Scarlett asked, stealing a brief glance at him looking handsome behind the wheel.

"I met him by chance," Xander replied, returning Scarlett's glance. He couldn't reveal the details since his encounter with Theodor had involved a secret mission. "It was during a business meeting in his country, and we grew close from then on." 

"Really?" Scarlett was somewhat skeptical. She knew Xander wasn't someone who easily made friends. How could he have become close to Theodor so quickly?

"Hmm, Theodor is nice and quite adept at making friends. Coincidentally, I also needed a business partner in M Country. So, I thought, why not befriend him..." Xander said. He had indeed gained numerous benefits in his business ventures after becoming friends with Theodor.

"I see!" Scarlett smiled. Theodor was undeniably kind but also quite peculiar and had an intense infatuation with her. 

Gosh! Remembering what happened to her in the past year instantly made her head spin. She shook her head trying to shake off the memories.

Now, Scarlett was grateful that her problem with Theodor was over. She couldn't imagine the consequences if Theodor continued to chase after her until now.

"Well, babe, I think you'll get along with Theo. He shares similar traits with Rex," Xander remarked.

"Oh, really? Is he also a party lover?" Scarlett pretended to be unaware, even though she knew Theodor quite well. She was familiar with his numerous love affairs and had complete knowledge of his virtues and flaws.

However, even if she could find out all the info about Theodor, till now she remains oblivious to Theodor's family background. As far as she knew, Theodor belonged to the Royal Family of M Country — that's all she knew.

Being a skilled hacker, Scarlett had failed to uncover any information about Theodor's family as if a stronger force was safeguarding the family. She was consumed by curiosity and longed to discover the identity of the hacker protecting the royal family, but nothing she had found until now.

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm "Perhaps he's even worse than Rex," Xander chuckled. "But don't worry, he respects our boundaries. Even with his quirks, he knows when to include us..." Xander explained he didn't want Scarlett to worry.

"Thank goodness! I'm not fond of crowded places," Scarlett expressed with a smile. "However, I wouldn't mind if he limits the event to people I already know..." She continued. 

"Hmm, I've requested him not to invite anyone to our dinner. So you don't have to worry, babe..." Xander assured her, his gaze focused on the road ahead. Tonight, he intentionally chose to drive himself, with his team following in another car.

Soon, their car entered a vast, snow-covered courtyard, revealing a magnificent mansion near the entrance gates.

Scarlett's excitement grew as she eagerly anticipated seeing Theodor again after their previous night's encounter.
