The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Scarlett won't be upset if Xander meets with his business partner. Still, if he has a lunch date with another woman, that's a different story. She feels cheated.

Even though their relationship is just a contract marriage, not a real husband and wife. But she still remembers. Clearly, Xander asked her not to have a romantic relationship with another man while they were married.

Surely the same should be done by the ice-cold Prince Xander, too, right!? He can't date another woman! What's more, meeting other women on their first day as husband and wife.

And why did he have to meet his woman in this place when she was around!? How annoying.

'I can't accept it. You're breaking the rules, Mr. Xander Riley!'

Still annoyed, Scarlett repeatedly took a deep breath and then let it out so that her tight chest could be more relieved. She made a mental note; she would talk about it with Xander.

She wanted to clarify their agreement—how far she could go with the opposite sex. Likewise, with Xander, everything must be clear. So that no one gets hurt. Well, at least her.

This is not jealousy. Scarlett just wanted to make it clear to Xander. Because she doesn't want to be called a usurper for someone else's lover. Especially if that woman is a famous celebrity in this country, like Angela Lane.

Scarlett is aware that Angela Lane has a large fanbase in this country. She even has the nickname 'National Treasure' because of her achievements in the Film Industry. She was once nominated for an Academy Award for a female supporting role. Even though she didn't win, she was already considered a national treasure.

It would be scary if her fans discovered that she snatched Angela Lane's boyfriend. They would definitely skin her alive, right!?

She better stay hidden. And avoid internet trolls. She didn't want her name or picture to appear in the gossip website headlines. This time she wants to live quietly in this country and run her business, making as much money as possible.

"Why aren't you eating your meal?" Xander's voice echoed throughout the room, pulling Scarlet out of her thoughts.

Xander's brow wrinkled when he saw that the food on the table had not been touched. Why is she not eating? Is the food unable to satisfy her appetite? He rubbed his brows, staring intently at her.

Scarlett was surprised to see Xander Riley leaning against the door frame. One hand was tucked into his trouser pocket, while the other touched his wrinkled forehead. She gasped in surprise at the sight of this Ice Prince — Just standing like that alone, he looked extremely handsome.

Secretly she gulped at how handsome this man looked now. But she could only satisfy her eyes, looking at his good looks for a few seconds. Because when she saw his deep eyes, it was apparent that displeasure was flashing from them.

'Why does this Ice Prince look in a bad mood? Shouldn't he be happy because he just had lunch with his girlfriend?' Scarlett said to herself while looking at her laptop screen to avoid his angry gaze.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ However, what she did was a mistake. Suddenly her mind started to feel like it was boiling again as gossip news entered her view. Under the table, her hands were tightly clenched without her noticing.

She really wanted to talk about their marriage rules again. She tried to remind Xander that; No one was allowed to date during their marriage, including him.

It would be unfair if those rules only apply to her while he is accessible to date anyone out there.

Somehow, she can't handle the gossip news and hates herself for that. Because she knows the rules, there's no feeling involved in their marriage contract.

But,

The thought of this man having so many women out there made her heart slightly ache. It annoys her so much.

"Are you done?" His tone was still the same, cold. It feels like someone just installed a massive freezer in this room.

She felt a chill run down her spine. She narrowed her eyes at Xander as she closed her laptop and tucked it into her backpack.

"Yes. Let's go home." She stood up from her chair and walked towards him.

"Eat first!" Xander slowly moves his long legs and enters the room. As he passed her, Scarlett could smell his unique scent and slap her nostril. She hesitated, but she still turned her gaze, looking at him.

Xander ignored Scarlett's gaze. He sat in front of the untouched food with his back facing Scarlett.

"Sit down!" He ordered her with his commanding voice.

This time, Scarlett noticed the various dishes on the table, still intact. How shocked she was now.

'My God! I have not eaten?' She took a deep sigh, feeling helpless. 'How could I forget to eat?'

The gossip distracted her mind, so she forgot to eat her delicious lunch. Gosh!

She returned inside, but she only stood in front of Xander — didn't sit as his order.

"I'm not hungry. I eat a lot when we're on the plane." She wasn't in the mood to eat. What's more, now Xander sits in front of her. How could she swallow her food? She couldn't.

Xander tapped the table with his finger to form a strange sound that sounded intimidating to Scarlett's ears, but she remained unmoved. She could only stare back at his sharp gaze.

"Are you sure?" His tone rose, showing that he was annoyed.

"Yes."

Xander got up from his seat. After buttoning his suit, he said, "This food is going to end up in the trash bin!" His voice sounded relaxed, but Scarlett heard it like a threat.

Like someone hitting her head, she came to her senses.

How could she let this delicacy-looking dish end up in the trash bin?

As the leader of The Food Slave Guild, this was humiliation.

She couldn't do that.

Feeling helpless, she pulled up the chair and sat without a word or sound.
