The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Paul Kane gave them a way to enter the house, "Please after you… master, young madam…" he bowed slightly. After he saw them walking, he also followed them from behind.

Scarlett walked beside Xander. They walked so close that she could feel Xander's arm rubbing against hers. It felt strange, but Scarlett calmly maintained her expression. Because she could feel many pairs of eyes looking at her with shocked gazes after Xander introduced her as his wife.

Well, this house's staff was shocked, and so was she.

She still hadn't digested this enormous welcome. And now her status has become a new young madam in this 'White Mansion.'

As soon as they entered the house, Scarlett's mind was still trying to reel back everything that had happened since she got there. She didn't realize now she was on the stairs leading to the second floor. It was a massive relief for Scarlett because she wasn't in the mood to explore this mansion.

This 'White House' is huge. She was sure she would need several hours to tour all parts of the house and garden. She will do it later. Now she wants to go to her bedroom. She needed a peaceful moment to digest everything that had happened today. It felt like her brain would explode because too much was bothering her. She felt exhausted.

Soon they reached the second floor. Just the two on this floor. Paul Kane apparently is not following them.

Scarlett saw a large lounge with luxurious furniture and artwork. The interior on this floor resembled a hotel lobby she had seen at one of Trump's hotels near Central Park, New York.

The marble floor is stunning. Scarlett never saw a personal house use this kind of marble. She also saw several seating areas with leather sofas, which looked pricey.

'Damn! This Xander Riley is really something, huh!'

Most of the ornaments in the room are made from gold. Scarlett thinks all of that's only fake gold. She will ask Xander if this man is in a good mood.

And in the center of the lounge, there's a beautiful chandelier hanging from the high ceiling.

The room is surrounded by a glass wall.

Scarlett could see the back garden, and it surprised her. What a beautiful back garden.

She could only secretly smile when she saw the boundless emerald pool overlooking the city. And an oversized jacuzzi can accommodate about 10 people near the pool.

Scarlett can picture the sweet moment between her and Xander soaking in the pool and Jacuzzi. But soon, her imagination disappears. The Ice Prince Xander Riley will definitely not give her a chance, right!?

'Gosh! What do you expect from him? Throw away your fantasy…' she chuckled while shaking her head.

Scarlett secretly compliments Xander for his extravagant taste, contrary to her taste. This is something she could never imagine, life in this vast mansion.

Maybe, she could afford it, but she would never live in a place like this. It is a waste for her. She prefers to live in a secluded location with a huge yard and a pretty little house to raise her child.

She couldn't stand living with so many maids to serve her. It felt like she couldn't be free in her own house because so many eyes were watching her movement.

After enjoying the view from where she stood, Scarlett felt someone watching her back.

Instantly she jolted in surprise at the thought that she wasn't alone there — the ice prince must be someone staring at her that made her nape feel cold.

Scarlett looked back only to find Xander sitting on one of the brown leather sofas. His legs crossed and head hung low, reading the iPad in his hands.

She smiled bitterly. Sure enough, this man would ignore her presence in that place as if he were the only person on the floor — she's just a piece of furniture.

'Geez!! Scarlett, don't be offended by his attitude. He is only your fake husband, no need to hope more. So ignore him too...'

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Scarlett tried to calm her heart so as not to be provoked to embarrass herself against this ice prince.

Slowly she walked towards him and sat down on one of the sofas away from him. She thought Xander would glance at her, but again she was wrong. This man still ignored her.

She cleared her throat to remind Xander that she was also in the room. When she saw the man finally raise his head, he gave her a look as if to say — what do you want? Just say it.

A faint smile framed Scarlett's face before she said, "Xander, do you live with your family here?" She finally dared to ask him.

Scarlet was concerned about this. She feels uncomfortable if they live with his family — their fake marriage might never be exposed.

"No. All my family lives in a villa by the lake down there. Why?"

"Oh, no... nothing. I was just curious." Scarlett felt relieved. "And where is my room?"

She could see that there were two wooden doors at the end side beside. And there's a double door at the other end and a single white entrance.

"The one on the other end." Xander pointed at the wooden door at the end.

Scarlett is satisfied.

At least that room is away from the master bedroom. She was confident that the room at the other end with the double doors must be Xander's room.

"And my bedroom is right beside your room," he continued.

Scarlett's eyes, still staring at her bedroom door, suddenly widened at his words. She turned to look at him to ensure she didn't hear wrong. But to her surprise, Xander's hand was still hanging in the air. It's pointing toward the room next to hers.

Instantly her throat went dry. She swallowed silently and tried to hide her surprise.

So their bedrooms are side by side!

Gosh!

Scarlett felt depressed. She wished there was no connecting door between their rooms.
