The Billionaire's Genius Wife

After entering his room, Xander stood by the window. He saw the moon feeling angry. Later, he took his cell phone and called someone.

"Have you found out who attacked my wife!?" Xander's stiff tone could make James, on the other end, flinch.

"Sir, I've got the info. They are from the ShimmerHands assassination guild, but their assignment comes from Brody Wood..." James explained from the other end.

No language could describe how angry Xander was when he heard that name. He said, "So it was the man who came to the hospital who provoked her, right!?"

"Yes, sir! Mmm… Sir, do you want me to do something about it?"

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom Xander didn't rush to speak. He tried to think quickly before deciding how to deal with Brody Wood.

After a few seconds had passed, he said, "Find out what illegal acts Brody Wood has been involved in. I want all the info here tonight. And reveal it before it goes down. Let's make that kid suffer when he wakes up tomorrow!"

He doesn't like it when someone hurts the people closest to him. Especially Scarlett. She is his legal wife. How could he allow someone to bully her? He wouldn't let that happen!

"Master, consider it done!" said James, but before hanging up the phone, he froze, looking at his laptop screen.

"Okay! I'll be waiting for your message..."

"S-Sir, wait... I don't think we need to investigate Brody Wood. Right now, all of his past bad deeds are all over the internet. The news has become a trending topic on some social media, and almost all news platforms are discussing it..."

Xander hung up immediately. He opened his laptop and checked the internet. Only took a few seconds to read, and he was shocked beyond words.

"Someone's done it already! Who exposed him?"

He frowned, thinking about it for a moment, but his lips curved into a faint smile shortly after.

"Scarlet! It must be her..." Xander was sure the girl had taken revenge on Brody Wood. And she did it nicely, a quick and efficient move.

He suddenly felt admiration for her. This girl was not only good at martial arts, but she could also repay those who hurt her.

He couldn't help but laugh at the thought of her bright eyes and goddess-like face.

"Why is that girl increasingly fulfilling the criteria of a woman I like!? Beautiful, Smart, brave, independent, and..." Xander snapped! He shakes his head, trying to push away what's on his mind, shaking off his greedy desire to keep her to himself.

He let out a long sigh as he stood up from his chair and slumped down on the bed, trying to sleep.

****

The next day.

Scarlett woke up when the first rays of sunlight came into the room through the gaps in the curtains that were not tightly closed.

She had never felt this happy when she woke up in the morning. Maybe it was because before going to bed, she felt so pleased after teaching that idiot Brody Wood and was able to get her a good night's sleep.

After making a few yoga moves, Scarlett got out of bed and walked to the window. She completely opened the curtains, and a dazzling light made the room bright instantly.

She stood there for a while, enjoying the calm sea. Meanwhile, in her mind, she is trying to devise a plan for the day. She will go to the hospital, wait for her dad's surgery results and talk to Grandpa Robert about Nicole's condition.

"Grandpa Robert should be able to help Nicole, too, right!?" She whispered softly.

Amidst she was in deep thought, suddenly Scarlett gasped in surprise, remembering Xander. She glanced at her watch and was relieved that it wasn't even seven in the morning.

She has to wake up early to get breakfast with him. That man had a strange rule of having breakfast together at seven every morning. Gosh! How troublesome!

She still had a few minutes to wash and change her clothes and go to the hospital.

After finishing her morning routine, wearing her fake wig and contact lenses, she took her cell phone from the bedside.

A mischievous smile immediately appeared on Scarlett's face as she thought about her last night's work — the punishment she gave to her childhood friend, Brody Wood.

She sat on the edge of the bed and started reading the news on the internet. The expression on her face slowly turned to one of joy. Her eyes beamed reading it because she successfully made Brody Wood lose what he had dreamed of; power in the Wood Family.

What she had done to that bastard was to reveal his bizarre and vile hobby; having sex with underage girls. He raised a little girl and made them his sex slaves. Crimes like this were considered so heinous under Astington's law. She believed the man would face the death penalty.

She also revealed Brody's other vile hobbies. That is using and abusing drugs. What was most exciting on the internet was that he was involved in several bribery cases too.

In the bribery case, not only was Brody affected, but now the entire Wood Family is in chaos. Their evil deeds of bribing the authorities are now being exposed in the media. With all the substantial evidence, they could not evade it.

Now, the local authorities on B Island are blaming each other. For this reason, high officials in the capital made a statement in the early hours that they would thoroughly investigate the bribery case of state officials and punish all those involved.

The corners of her lips lifted and revealed an evil and charming cold smile. She muttered, "What a wonderful result! This is the light punishment I can give you! Well, this pro bono case isn't bad! It can make me happy like this..."

Scarlett put down her phone and laughed because she not only threw Brody and his family to hell but also helped this country to catch corrupt officials.
