The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 96 Slap

?When Scarlett came out of the bathroom, she saw Xander standing by the glass window, talking to someone on the phone.

She didn't want to disturb him. She entered the bedroom area while waiting for Logan.

But when she opened her cell phone, she was surprised to see someone spamming her with text messages.

After reading a few lines, her head suddenly felt dizzy.

[Idiot Cruz:] Boss, why didn't you tell me you married my Idol, Xander Riley!?

[Idiot Cruz:] Boss, is it true that you no longer think I am important to you?

[Idiot Cruz:] Boss... Are you there?

[Idiot Cruz:] (Cry Icon) Dear Boss, you really don't care about me anymore, huh!?

[Idiot Cruz:] Boss, reply, please!

[Idiot Cruz:] Are you alright, boss?

[Idiot Cruz:] (worry Icon)

Scarlett could only curse Cruz in her heart as she threw her cell phone on the bedside table and lay on the bed. She looked at the white ceiling above, trying to distract her mind from Nicole.

She is still worried about her situation. Until now, there has been no news about her condition.

Shortly after...

Scarlett saw Logan enter the room carrying her suitcase. After receiving the briefcase, she went into the bathroom again to change into her casual clothes; dark blue jeans and a white shirt.

After she put on her white sneakers, she came out and saw Xander chatting with Logan, but as soon as he saw her, he dismissed Logan and asked her to sit with him.

"Any news about Nicole?" Scarlett asked anxiously.

After seeing her sitting across from him, he told her about the news he had just received.

"Your sister lost a lot of blood and damaged some vital organs. Currently, she is still under intense care..." Xander explained everything. He had no intention of hiding anything from her.

Scarlett was stunned to hear how severe Nicole's condition was now. "So there's a chance she fell into a coma?"

"Yes, and she might die..."

Her heart burned when she heard that Nicole might never wake up. Instantly she stood up from her chair and walked out. Her downcast eyes were filled with an ice-cold gaze.

She was going to teach that damn woman a lesson. It's all because of that bitch! Her father was hospitalized because she dared to sell her to Frans.

And now, her sister Nicole is also experiencing the same thing, all because of her actions.

Is she really human? Why is she behaving like a demon?

'Lauren!! You are such a bitch. If you don't end up in prison, I won't be able to live in peace!! So enjoy your time now before you actually get in there!'  Scarlett vents her anger inside her head as she walks to the elevator.

p?nd?`no??1--?o? She vows to send that bitch to jail and get someone to torture her. That bitch Lauren had to taste the pain and suffering in prison before going to hell.

Xander was surprised to see Scarlett suddenly leave the room with her sullen expression.

He stood up from his seat and chased after her, "Scarlett? Where are you going?" He asked when he managed to walk beside her.

"I want to teach that bitch Lauren..." Her voice was low but sharp as a dagger.

Xander didn't say anything else. He just followed her to the elevator. Soon they arrived in front of the patient's room downstairs.

Scarlet entered without needing to knock first. She saw Lauren sitting on the couch, talking to someone on the phone. She dashes towards her with killing intent.

When Lauren Piers saw Scarlett, she stood up from her seat, too shocked to see Scarlett appear in the room.

Instantly her anger rose after this girl seemed to avoid her. She called her a few times, but she never picked up. She also sent messages, but this girl never replied. Even when she asks her daughter Nicole to beg her, she doesn't seem too moved to help.

Useless bitch!! Only knows how to spend money without caring about family matters. This bitch deserves a beating!

"Scarlet Piers, how useless you are. How can you ignore me? Where have you been? Why don't you want to help your fat..." Before Lauren could finish her words, a hand landed on her cheek.

PLAAK!!

The slap was so fast and robust. Lauren could feel her cheeks sting. Her eyes widened at Scarlett, who was mockingly smiling at her.

"Y-You slapped me? How dare you... bitch!!!" Lauren is furious. She raised her hand to return the slap, but the girl grabbed her hand before she touched Scarlett's cheek.

Laure was utterly shocked.

'Why is this little girl so bold? Why is she angry? Shouldn't she be the one mad at her!?' Lauren was confused.

She tried desperately to free her hand from Scarlett's grip, but no matter how hard she tried, the girl's hand didn't move. She is so strong.

"Bitch! Let go of my hand!!" she screamed. But, instead of letting go of her hand, another slap landed on her other cheek.

PLAAK!!

This time the slap was more vigorous. Lauren could feel the taste of blood on the corners of her lips. Instantly all of her blood boiled as anger enveloped her.

"Scarlett, your father is not dead yet. You already forgot that I am your mother? How dare you hit me?" Lauren snapped, but when she saw Scarlett's cold gaze, she froze.

"You want to know why I hit you?" Scarlett let go of her hand and pushed her hard.

Lauren slams into the couch. Before she scolded her, Scarlett said,

"Because you forced your daughter to commit suicide!! If I didn't find her in time, maybe she wouldn't be in this world anymore!" Scarlett's tone was casual, but every word she uttered was like a steel blade that grazed Lauren Piers from head to toe.

Lauren was shocked.

"Nicole trying to kill herself? Why? Why would she do that?" She muttered. But only for a second, her face froze, realizing what she had done to her daughter.

She gasps, looking at Scarlett.

"S-Scarlett... Where is your sister? Please take me to see her..." Lauren's voice trembled.
