The Billionaire's Genius Wife



Before seven o'clock in the evening, a black Maybach parked in front of Xander and Scarlett's residence. When Scarlett saw Simon behind the wheel, she was taken aback.

"H-Hi B-Brother Simon," Scarlett greeted him awkwardly. "Y-You're driving alone?" She couldn't believe that Simon had come to pick them up himself. She had expected him to send his driver.

"Yes," Simon smiled at the surprised and awkward Scarlett. "Hurry up, get in... We might be late. Ah, sister, you can sit in the back by yourself, right?"

Scarlett nodded and promptly moved to the back seat after Xander opened the car door for her. After ensuring Scarlett was seated safely, Xander closed the door and took his place beside Simon.

The car began to move slowly. After a few minutes, Simon glanced at Scarlett through the rearview mirror. He could see his little sister looking tense and confused.

"My friend's house is still in the Royal Garden complex, so it's not a big deal if I drive alone," Simon explained while smiling at Scarlett. "And this place is safer than many other places in this country."

"I see. No wonder you're driving alone," Scarlett said, feeling slightly relieved. Because she feels bad looking at him driving for them. 

Simon suddenly remembered something. He glanced at Xander beside him. "Xander, I heard you know Alex Hills?"

Xander was shocked to hear that, "Yes, I know him. Did you also know Alex?" he asked curiously.

Simon didn't answer; he simply smiled as their car finally stopped in front of a mansion, and his gaze fixed on a man standing not far from their vehicle.

"Why is Brother Alex here?" Scarlett suddenly said when she saw Alex standing in front of the entrance as if waiting for them.

Xander turned his gaze outside the car. Same with Scarlett, he is also surprised to see Alex in this place.

"Well, Alex is quite close to the friend I want to introduce you to," Simon explained to Xander and Scarlett. "Come on, let's meet Alex..." He immediately exited the car, with Xander and Scarlett following him.

...

Alex couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xander and Scarlett looking so shocked. However, he didn't immediately greet them; instead, he greeted Simon first.

"Hello, Simon... It's been a while, huh!?" Alex said casually while offering him a handshake. Then he turned his gaze toward Xander and Scarlett. With a broad grin, he casually embraced Xander. "We finally meet again, bro..."

"I'm surprised to see you here, Alex!" Xander smiled, still shocked to see his best friend. Actually, before coming here, he had felt tense because he didn't know anyone and was still uncomfortable around Simon. But seeing Alex here made him feel a bit more relaxed.

"Hahaha, I'm also surprised to learn you guys know Simon," Alex said, then glanced at Scarlett. "Hello, sister-in-law," he politely greeted Scarlett while offering a handshake. "It's nice to meet you again..." 

"Brother Alex..." Scarlett returned his smile and began talking to him about what had happened with the Withers family. "Thank you so much for helping to take care of my Uncle Noah and settling everything there..."

"No need to say thanks. That's my duty," Alex casually replied, but before he could continue, Simon interrupted.

"Alright, let's go inside. Are they ready?" Simon asked Alex.

"Yes, they're waiting for you. Let's go..." Alex said, leading them all inside to the living room.

When they arrived in the living room, Scarlett was taken by surprise to see a familiar petite woman with long black hair standing up when she noticed them. Beside her, a tall, handsome man also rose from his seat, greeting them with a warm friendly smile.

It took Scarlett a few moments to recall the woman's identity. She was utterly shocked to realize that the person Simon wanted to introduce her to was none other than Mel Tan, Alex's best friend from X Country. Mel was a successful businesswoman who owned the technology company MT Group. Scarlett also recognized the man standing with Mel. He was her husband, Andrew William.

'Gosh! How can this be a coincidence?' Scarlett thought inwardly. It was hard to believe that they all knew each other. Before she could ask Alex for confirmation, she heard Simon introduce them.

"Scarlett, this is Mel Tan, and this man is her husband, Andrew William..." Simon said before turning his gaze to Mel. "You already know them, right? This is my little sister, Scarlett Piers, and her husband, Xander Riley..."

Alex, who was standing next to Xander, was stunned to hear Simon refer to Scarlett as his "little sister." Just as he was about to ask Scarlett about it, he saw her and Xander already conversing with Mel.

Mel greeted Scarlett warmly and extended her hand for a handshake. "It's nice to meet you, Scarlett. You look so beautiful; no wonder Old Robert adores you. That old man talks about you quite a lot."

Scarlett could only smile, fully aware of what Mel was implying, as she had also often heard about Mel from Grandpa Robert. So, all this time, that old man had been gossiping about them. Gosh!

"Sister Mel..." Scarlett accepted her warm handshake. "Can I call you that?" Seeing Mel nod in agreement, she continued, "I've also heard a lot about you from Grandpa Robert. I never imagined meeting you like this, sister. I still can't believe you are standing in front of me right now..." She smiles. 

"Hahaha, that old man is truly a chatterbox," Mel laughed, recalling her dear doctor. Before they resumed their conversation, Mel greeted Xavier and allowed her husband to do the same. After that, everyone settled onto the sofa.

However, before they could continue their conversation, Alex, perplexed since he heard Simon's remarks to Scarlett, finally spoke up. "Wait, wait... guys, can someone explain to me why Simon said Scarlett is his little sister?" 

Everyone turned their attention to the confused Alex.

Simon was the first to respond. But he didn't answer Alex. Instead, he asked Mel, "You haven't told him yet?" 

Mel answered with a gentle shake of her head.
