The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 92 Her Plan

?"W-Why are you hitting me, boss?" Cruz rubbed his head while glaring at Scarlett.

"Stop that nonsense! I'll go now..." Scarlett said, then got into the car.

Cruz was still standing where he was with his eyes sharply on the Rolls Royce Phantom that slowly disappeared from his sight.

He still couldn't believe what had happened — his boss married his idol, Mr. Xander Riley.

"This is hard to believe!! How can Scarlett's husband be Mr. Xander Riley!? Can anyone slap me now!?" Cruz quietly talked to himself, but suddenly his head hurt as a 'PLAK' sound could be heard from behind him.

He was utterly shocked.

"Shit!!! WHO HIT ME!?" He cried and looked back to kill the person, but his anger slowly decreased when his eyes fell on Logan. But he felt irritated to see Logan grinning at him.

"What the hell, Logan! Why did you hit me?" Cruz glared at Logan. "And can you appear like normal people? Why do you appear here like a ghost?" He stopped his anger when he saw Mr. Carter Riley standing beside Logan.

This man was Scarlett's brother-in-law. As Scarlett's assistant, he should behave in front of him.

Cruz tried to hold back his annoyance.

"Didn't you ask for it?" Logan answered innocently. Not waiting for Cruz to answer, he jumped right into his car. He has to chase his boss to go to the island. "Bye, Cruz!! See ya...."

"Tsk! That guy, really annoyed!!" Cruz muttered and saw Carter, who was still standing where he was looking at him with a look of pity.

"Mr. Riley, do you know about this? My boss married your elder brother?" he asked.

p?nd?`no??1--?o? He felt something was wrong; why did Mr. Carter still want to meet his boss when the woman was his sister-in-law?

Carter smiled unhurriedly to answer Cruz. His eyes were still on Logan's car, which quickly disappeared from sight. He knows they are all heading to Island B now. Earlier, he wants to know why, but that stupid Logan keeps a secret from him. Sigh!

After a while, he looked at Cruz.

"Mr. Reeves, would you believe me if I said… I just found out  my brother married your boss this morning?" Carter said sadly. He was the last to know in the family. How could he not be sad about that?

"Damn!! I know it!! They must be fakes, right!?" Cruz laughed, thinking that his boss was playing a prank on him.

"They're definitely not married. The proof is you, as Mr. Xander Riley's brother, don't know about their marriage. Damn it!! My heartless boss, how could she make fun of me?" A bitter smile appeared as he shook his head in defeat.

Carter became confused. Is it true that they are not married yet? No. They really got married because even their grandfather knew about this.

It couldn't be that his elder brother was also fooling his grandfather, could it?

A chuckle escaped from his lips. He taps Cruz's shoulder.

"Bro! They are a married couple. But, unfortunately, you and I seem to be not important people to them. That's why we found out recently." He smiled bitterly and walked towards his car with a hurt feeling.

"Huh! What's that supposed to mean!?" Cruz was confused by Carter's words until Carter's car disappeared from his sight, and he gasped. "Damn!! Am I really that insignificant to her? How sad!!"

Cruz could feel his knees weaken. He took a deep breath and entered the building again. He has a lot to do to silence the people who witnessed his boss' PDA with her husband.

While on a jet plane.

Scarlett sat alone in the back row while Xander sat in the front with Logan and Ben. As usual, he ignored her. And oddly enough, she was used to it.

She took the opportunity to sleep. She needs a lot of energy because soon she will meet her evil stepmother. That woman will make anything difficult for her.

"Are you sleeping?"

Scarlett cringed when she heard Xander's voice near her ear. When she opened her eyes, she saw his calm alluring eyes looking at him.

Her heart began to beat faster.

"N-No!" She tried to avoid his eyes and straightened her body after she saw him sitting beside her. "Are you guys finished?"

"Hmm... What are you thinking about?" Xander asked after seeing this girl seem bothered by something. "You look like you're making some big plans. I can clearly see wrinkles appear on your forehead." He chuckled.

Scarlett spontaneously touched her forehead, but then she cleared her throat and tried not to show her surprise. 'Geez! This man is teasing me...'

"Hahaha, Mr. Riley... you are too much. How can a young lady like me have wrinkles!?"

Xander chuckled, but he didn't say another word. He was casually reading the files on his iPad.

Not hearing him say anything, she glanced at him.

"...well, I was thinking about my evil stepmother. I guess she still doesn't know I can bring the Divine Doctor to surgery on my father. While that woman tries to get my signature to shift the company's power to her... Well, my guts say that woman is plotting evil things to coerce me!"

"So, what's your plan!?" Xander raised his eyebrows curiously.

"For now, I will ignore her. I will focus on healing my father first. After that, I will strike a bargain with my father. As long as that woman doesn't interfere with the company, I will have my father stay as CEO. However, I'll get another professional to look after the company if he can't grant my wish."

Xander smiled, hearing her plan. This girl is apparently not stupid. She did have the intent to keep her mother company.

"Sounds good! I'll back you up. Your share and mine combined will make you the full controller of the company..." He said.

"Thank you, Xander." Scarlett glanced at him. "About what I said last night, I mean it... I want to buy back the share you own. I..."

"We'll talk about it later..." He said and once again ignored her.
