The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Scarlett blushed while uttering his name, "X-Xander..."

"Yes, babe, I'm here..." Xander's face beamed. "Are you willing to do it right!?" Xader's voice sounded soft and made Scarlett's body react again, but this time she was no longer cold but she felt warmth rising from within her.

During her new relationship with Xander, Scarlett forgot about their 'Wedding night.'

She only asked him to be patient that time, but now this man brought up the matter. And that makes her nervous. Luckily he was now thousands of miles from Astington! Thus, she could only nod lightly in response to his question, which was so vulgar in her ears.

Xander couldn't help but smile when he saw her nodding.

So, this girl was allowing him to take their relationship more seriously? He felt thrilled, Just like the first time he wanted to jump on the Nevis Swing in Queenstown, NZ.

However, even though his heart was about to explode, a feeling of happiness engulfed him. He smiled at Scarlett and said, "So, can we do it after I return?"

"Hmm!" She said as she buried her face in her hands under his burning gaze. "Stop looking at me like that, Xander!"

When she heard him laugh and promised to stop his sultry glares. She slowly looked up at him, even though she was sure her cheeks were still blushing after she felt her body heat rising.

"Okay! I'll work hard here so I can return to you faster!" Xander says while smiling at her.

All the schedules he had made instantly changed in his mind — he would make five days of work into three days!

At this moment, Xander's mind is no longer in Dubai, where he is now, but in Astington, where Scarlett is now! If only he were given superpowers, Xander just wanted to have the ability to teleport, so he could see her whenever he wanted.

He was about to say something but stopped when he saw Scarlett was about to say another word.

"...But Xander, I have to talk to Rex first. Can I meet him before we do that?" She asked carefully, not wanting to make this man misunderstand her.

His smile, which looked like a flower in spring, instantly turned into a glacier at the North Pole. His face turned stiff.

"Why, Why do you want to meet him? What does that have to do with our first night as husband and wife?" He said with his stiff expression, yet his voice was as cold as ice.

Seeing the expression on his face, Scarlett immediately explained what she had told Rex — about their contract marriage and her promise to never fall in love with him.

"I'm sorry, Xander! I wasn't honest with you from the start. Actually, Rex knew that our marriage was fake, and at that time, I had promised him I would not fall in love with you..."

Xander's face became ugly upon hearing those words. There's an irritated feeling appearing in his heart. He couldn't blame her or Rex but himself!

Because, at the time, he made an unsensible offer to her; marriage with a precondition, no sharing feelings, no love. Only after he lived under the same roof with her did he realize his precondition was tormenting him. Only a stupid man could live under the same roof as her but not fall in love with her.

"I know you don't like the idea of meeting Rex. But I need it! I want to be honest with him about my true feelings for you. I can't hide from Rex; that I'm in love with you, and we decided to continue this marriage!"

Not seeing him say a word, she repeated, "Xander, I did it, so there won't be any misunderstandings between Rex and me. And, if you ask, why should I explain? Because I already consider Rex like an older brother, he is also special to me. I hope you can allow..."

After pondering for a moment, he agreed with her. She needed to draw a clear line between herself and Rex.

For Rex to no longer be delusional about expecting Scarlett. That man had to know that the relationship between Scarlett and him was not just a couple on paper. Now their relationship is that of a faithful husband and wife!

"Baby!! I understand. You can meet him. But it would be best if you asked him to come to Astington. You can't go to New York alone..." He said.

A few days later, in the Capital Astington,

She had just been sitting at her office desk for an hour, and Scarlett suddenly heard a commotion outside.

At first, she didn't care and continued to read some files on her laptop, but after she heard a knock on the door, she became distracted.

She remembers telling Logan and Cruz that she didn't want to be disturbed even though she wasn't in the studio.

'Why did they still disturb me!?'

Scarlett raised her head to look at the door. She took a deep breath before shouting, "Yes! Come in..." And looked back at her laptop.

"Hi, beautiful... how are you?" Instantly Scarlett froze when she heard that familiar voice. She quickly looked towards the door and saw a tall man with brown hair neatly combed back leaning against the door frame.

His alluring smile was enough to make all the girls who saw him lose their minds, but for some reason, Scarlett was already immune to seeing his smile. She just smiled back at him and stood up from her chair.

"Brother Rex, you come..." She walked towards the sofa area and gestured to him to join her. "I thought you were coming this noon!?" She heard from Rex's assistant that he only had time to fly here in the afternoon.

Rex didn't immediately sit on the couch or answer her questions. He walked to the large glass window behind Scarlett and stood there. Seemingly to admire the seaside scenery outside.

"No wonder you like to stay here! This scenery really spoils your eyes, huh!?" Rex says.

"Yeah! This place reminds me of my hometown. That's why I chose my office in this location and on this side of view..."

"I know! Well, it's been a few months since you returned, and you seem to have settled here!" He said while walking towards the seating area. "Did you really forget to come back to New York!?"
