The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 242 Revenge For His Little Wife!

?While Paul and Ella Harris are still trying to work things out for their company...

At the Riley Group.

Xander sits at his desk, signing some documents, while listening to Ben's report about the dawn fall of Harris Corp.

"Excellent!" Xander compliments Ben and the others for acting quickly to punish Harris Corp.

"...Boss, they are trying to track down who leaked all their secrets. And as you instructed, we give their hackers some info about us. What you foresee actually happened. The hacker immediately cut ties with Ella Harris and fled overseas. I think he's at the border by now!"

Xander slowly raised his head, and his gaze fell on Ben. He was not rushing to instruct Ben on his next plan, but he thought momentarily.

After a while, Xander said, "Send someone to take care of that hacker! He already knows about us. It would be troublesome if we let him go free..."

"Consider it done, boss!"

Xander nodded, and he asked again, "What about Old Riley? Has he heard about this?"

"Not yet! But the latest info I heard, Paul Harris is heading to Old Harris' house. I think he will meet the old man to report about this."

"Do they suspect that I caused all this?" Xander asked.  Well, whether they knew it or not, he didn't really care what happened to Harris Corp. Because his goal was only one; to avenge his wife!

And, since they had committed a dishonorable act first, he had no choice but to make them suffer.

"I'm not so sure, Boss. But if they're smart, they'll know..." Ben said.

A satisfied smile appeared on Xander's lips. He was in a good mood because the Harris Family got their punishment. "Where is my wife now? Is she all right?"

Xander was distraught after receiving news from Logan that Ella Harris was trying to publicly humiliate his wife.

Upset with the information, Xander decides to take action today. He was supposed to do so during H Entertainment's Press Conference on their upcoming film in the next few days.

"Young Madam is fine. She is shopping with..." Ben paused, reluctant to say that name. He knows; Xander doesn't like his stepmother.

"Her assistant and friend?" Xander raises his brow, looking at Ben.

"Yes, but Mrs. Riley went shopping with them...."

"Why is she there? Has my wife made an appointment with her?" Xander asked.

Xander knew Scarlett and Martha were planning to go shopping together, but he tried to stop them several times. He didn't like seeing Scarlett close to Martha.

"Boss, have you forgotten? Ms. Martha Bell, the CEO of R Mall, so..." Ben stopped his sentence when he saw Xander raise his hand, asking him to leave.

Instantly Xander's face darkened upon hearing that name. He didn't say anything else, just waved at Ben, asking him to leave him — He needed to call his little wife. He missed her dearly.

...

p?nd?,no??1,?o? "Baby, how was your lunch?" Xander smiled when he heard how happy she was.

"Fun! And now, I'm shopping with the others. How about you? Have you had your lunch yet?" Scarlett steps aside in a corner to take Xander's call.

"No, not yet! I still have something to..." Before Xander could finish his words, Scarlett scolded him. "Okay, okay... I'll stop working now. What time will you be back?" Xander deliberately changed the subject, not wanting to make her sulk.

"Well, I'm not sure. Mmm... maybe two hours from now!?" Scarlett stopped as she glanced at Martha, who was selecting a coat for her. She was confused about whether to tell him about Martha or not.

"Baby, I'll return to the hotel and wait for you..." Xander said as he stood up from his seat and stood by the glass wall, looking at the R Mall across the building.

Scarlett felt guilty that she had to stay longer at this mall. Her meeting with Martha was beyond her expectations.

"...Xander, actually, Aunt Martha is with me. So, I can't say for sure what time I can come back." There was regret implied in Scarlett's tone, which made Xander feel a little softer — His anger gradually subsided.

After a short moment, he said, "Babe, take your time! I will wait for you at the hotel!"

'Huh! He is not angry!?' Scarlett was surprised to hear that. Usually, Xander will be in silent mode whenever he hears Martha's name. And for that, she was reluctant to tell him about her meeting with Martha.

"Okay, I'll try to return as soon as possible!"

"Don't rush, baby! I'm fine. I'll be waiting for you..."

"But, please promise me you will get your lunch! I'll be mad if you skip again!"

"Babe, thank you. I fell in love with you every time you scolded me like now." Xander chuckled before continuing, "...don't worry. I'll ask Ben to prepare my lunch and go home afterward. Are you happy now?"

"Hmm! Well, I have to go now! I've found the coat I like. Ah, Xander, I bought something for you. Hope you like it! Bye, Xander..."

Beep!

Xander could only chuckle when Scarlett didn't give him time to respond.

'It seems my wife wants to surprise me, huh!' He muttered to himself while smiling widely, feeling happy.

"B-Boss, may I come in?"

Instantly Xander's smile vanished when he heard a woman's voice from behind. He turned around and saw Zoey already standing in front of his desk.

Xander wanted to ask her out, but seeing her sad-looking face made him nod.

"Please, sit!" Xander said as he sat down in his chair.

Zoey Warner smiled broadly when her efforts were not in vain. She knew Xander would never reject her if she showed her sad face.

She knows how to touch Xander's heart!

This is her chance, and she doesn't want to fail this time. She had to get an answer that the past few days had made her sleepless.

However, seeing Xander not looking at her at all, as if she wasn't there, made her heartache. Her fists clenched in frustration.
