The Billionaire's Genius Wife

After watching the CCTV footage for a few minutes, she suddenly felt her blood ripple. She was furious.

'What a Shameless and deceitful woman!!' She cursed Lauren in her heart as she called James.

"James! Ask your man to break into the room! Please help my sister. And as for the male inside, please hold him for questioning..." After she instructed James, she asked Xander to go to the hotel location.

Xander immediately asked the driver to take them to a new location. He looked at Scarlett again, worried, "Did something happen to your sister?"

"Yeah! It seems that damn woman didn't learn from her mistakes. After failing to do that to me, she's now doing it to her very own daughter, the one she gave birth to. That woman has completely lost her mind. How dare she sell her daughter!?"

Scarlett took out her anger on Lauren. She might have hit her if that woman had been in front of her.

Xander smiled, seeing her face turn red like her blood vessels were about to explode.

Without him noticing, the corners of his lips slightly raised to form a thin smile, but a second later, his face stiffened.

'Fuck! W-Why can't my mind think straight every time I see her cute expression!?' Xander thought while throwing away his naughty thoughts.

"What do you want to do with her?" he asked.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Scarlett didn't answer right away. She still didn't have an idea how to deal with Lauren. But for now, the priority is to save Nicole —  hoping Xander's men aren't too late to rescue her.

Before she wanted to answer Xander, an idea suddenly crossed her mind, and her mood lifted, his smile blooming, satisfied with her vision.

Lauren Piers cannot be left alone. Because one day, she will definitely do this again. Now she can still help Nicole, but what happens when she returns to the capital? That heartless Lauren will do that again, right!?

"Xander, can you help me to find a good lawyer?" Scarlett asks. She doesn't have any good lawyers in the country, so she needs his help again.

"I have. What do you want to do?" He raised his brow, confused; why suddenly this girl wanted a lawyer?

"I want to throw that damn woman in prison! Let her feel the pleasure of being in prison." She stopped to think that the right accused would frame that woman.

Xander was surprised to hear that.

"I guess... I can accuse her of prostitution!? She can stay a little longer in prison with that, right?" Scarlet asked innocently.

Scarlett would make sure to get revenge on that woman after what she did to her. At first, she didn't want to put her in prison, but today her patience is running thin.

"Sure you can. Fine, I'll get my lawyer to come here tomorrow."

"Thank you, Xander." He just smiled at her.

After a while, he asked, "Do you have any evidence against her yet? You can ask James to prepare evidence if you don't have it."

She has. She can easily hack into Lauren's gadgets. "Yes, I have. I'll give you later..."

Xander nodes and he could tell this girl was really good with her laptop. Previously, he could see how quickly she hacked the CCTV videos. He was sure this girl was a hacker.

No wonder he heard this girl was a genius. She has many talents.

It wasn't long before Scarlett and Xander arrived at the hotel room.

She saw a young man curled up on the floor with a face that looked battered — after being beaten up. Besides, that poor man stood two burly men with super short haircuts.

Then, she saw James walking towards her. "Ma'am, your sister is in the bathroom. She was in the bathroom ten minutes ago and hasn't come out yet..." Then, James explained what happened to Nicole when they found her.

Instantly Scarlett's heart felt like it was going to explode, too shocked by what she heard.

She didn't say a word but went straight to the bathroom. She called Nicole, but after a few times, the girl inside didn't say anything, which made her worry.

"Nicole... Please open the door! It's me, Sis Scarlett...." She shouted several times, but still, there was no movement from inside.

"Is she okay?" She muttered. Worried about what crossed her mind. Afraid that Nicole would be traumatized and hurt herself.

"Please open the door, Nicole!!! You're safe, I'm here... please come out and let's talk, huh!" She knocked again.

This time her voice trembled, her eyes stinging from holding back the tears. For some reason, she felt frightened.

"Scarlett... I've asked the hotel manager to open the door. They have a special key to open this door... "

Xander's soft voice came from behind. She looked back and saw Xander standing right behind her with his gentle smile and eyes staring at her. Instantly making Scarlett a bit more at ease.

"Thank you, Xander..." Her voice sounded shaky. For some reason, she felt that Nicole was not alright inside. However, she was too scared to say it. Worry that it really happens. The girl might be thinking of committing suicide due to trauma.

"Don't worry..." Xander put his hand on her shoulder. Only that time, he felt that this girl's body was trembling. Without him noticing, he pulled her into his arms.

"She'll be fine!! Don't be afraid..." He said while patting her back gently, trying to calm her down.

Scarlett was stunned when Xander hugged her. However, she didn't push him. This time, she needed his shoulder; she was afraid something might happen to Nicole.

"Xander, I'm afraid she will do something stupid! She must be traumatized!" Scarlett's hands clenched with emotion at the thought of Nicole being raped by that bastard.

"She is the only kind person in my family. Even my  very own father isn't as good as Nicole, who is only a half-sister to me..." She continued, looking up to see his eyes, "...I want that bastard to be punished and also that evil woman Lauren!"

"Hmm... I will make sure they are punished severely!" He said while wiping her tears gently from her cheeks.

Xander felt his heart ache to see her tears. He vowed in his heart to punish whoever made this girl cry.
