The Billionaire's Genius Wife

"Bro, I want to talk about Red Animation Studio."

Xander's face suddenly changed.

"I heard from Harvey Olson's Personal Assistant that the Director of the Red Animation Studio will be attending a dinner party he is hosting..."

"Are you sure the news can be trusted?"

"Yes, Brother. That guy is solid. Very trustworthy. The dinner party will be at Riley Hotel. Well, You know the Director actually invited you too, right? Are you sure you don't want to come!?" Carter asks.

Carter was hesitant to go alone. It's because he wasn't sure he could lobby Director Olson to be involved in the new movie their company was working on. Carter also needed his brother to be present for dinner. But yesterday, his brother suddenly said he couldn't attend.

"This is our chance to meet with the RAS representatives. Don't you want to come to meet them in person? I think they'll appreciate our efforts more if you come, bro…." Carter knows his brother is very busy. But, this is their chance to cooperate with RAS.

They have an excellent script for their blockbuster production. Still, they haven't found an animation company on par with Red Animation Studio.

The only way to work with RAS is to partner with Director Harvey Olson. But, again, they seemed to hit a wall because the Director always refused because he was busy working on another project.

The next night the Director invited them to join him for dinner. The reason was simply that he was staying at their hotel and as a gratitude to the Riley Group for being a producer for several of Director Olson's movie projects.

Xander pondered for a moment. What his brother said was true. This was their chance to meet the RAS representative to seal a deal for his company, Studio Phoenix.

"Okay, I'll try to come to the party..." Xander said, then entered the car. He asks Ben to go to the office. He has a meeting in thirty minutes.

****

At Red Animation Studio.

Scarlett felt her cheeks warm after talking to Xander. She was still in a daze looking at her phone while a spring-like smile framed her delicate face — she looked like a fool witch.

"Ooo... Mr. Xander Riley! How sweet of you, huh? If only you could be sweet and warm like that. If we were talking face to face, it would be great, wouldn't it!?" She giggled at the thought.

But then, she immediately shook her head, trying to shake off her delusion. How foolish she was!

"Silly girl, focus, focus. Xander Riley is someone you marry because of a contract. Not someone you fall in love with!!" She scolded herself for her stupid delusion.

After a few moments, she buried her face into her palms, and she regained her mood again to read some more files on her computer. But, just a few minutes immersed, something suddenly crossed her mind. Instantly she felt chills all over her body.

How could she forget him!?

She hurriedly opened a unique video application on her laptop. She tried to call 'Young Master Rex' from her list of friends. But after calling him several times, the call is not connected. This is Weird!

"Where is he? He should be in New York, right?"

Scarlett was nervous because that man never ignored her calls. He always picks up even when he is doing nasty things.

It was still imprinted on Scarlett's mind when she called him in the middle of the night. To her surprise, the man still stopped doing those 'sultry things' and picked up the phone. She could only hear some 'moans' from a woman. Gosh! Since then, she has been traumatized by calling him in the middle of the night.

However, why isn't he picking up her call now?

There are only two reasons. First, Rex might be in a place with no cellular phone signal, but this is impossible. Because he lives in the US, all areas of the country are covered by an internet connection. And second, he was on the plane. But this is also not possible because his jets are always equipped with wifi.

"Big brother, where are you?" Scarlett talked to herself. After the last ring ended, she gave up on calling him.

She would call him later or wait for him to call back. Maybe he is too busy at the moment.

Scarlett is back to work again. She has video conferences multiple times with all her offices in several countries altogether. And she also called her trusted person in her Los Angeles office.

She asked them to move to this town immediately to help her temporarily set up this new office.

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Immersed in her work, Scarlett didn't realize that lunchtime had long passed.

Before long, she heard a knock on the door. She stopped what she was doing as she raised her head to look at the door.

Scarlett frowned when she saw Cruz leaning against the door frame, looking at her.

"What's wrong, Cruz?"

"Lunchtime, boss."

"Huh!? It's time for lunch?" Scarlett was stunned, and at the same time, she felt her stomach growl.

"Yes, boss..." Cruz chuckled in disbelief at what he was seeing. Previously, his boss was irritable from having too much work on her first day back at work. But now? She was utterly immersed that she had forgotten her lunch.

Scarlett stood up from her seat and picked up her bag, "Let's eat at a nearby restaurant."

"No need, boss. I've cooked your favorite food." Cruz grinned, looking at his boss' curious-looking face.

"Huh!? My favorite?" Scarlett suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at Cruz with her beaming eyes. "Don't tell..."

"Hahaha, yeah… that one!" Cruz laughed at how surprised his boss was. He knew she would love the food. Because in this country they rarely sell it. He hasn't even found a restaurant that sells that food around Palm Avenue.

"Cruz Reeves! Your year-end bonus will increase!!!" Scarlett gave Cruz a thumbs up, then quickly put down her bag and headed to the dining table.
