The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 519  Arrived In Longyearbyen (3)

Scarlett promptly explained to Max the idea that had just crossed her mind—a potential method to uncover traces of her mother.

...

"You want me to check social media too?" Max asked, confused.

"Yes. Did you ever think that maybe, just maybe, the person we are looking for appears in one of the local or tourist video content or pictures?" Scarlett continued to explain, "You know Svalbard is a tourist area. Many tourists will upload their travel records while on this island, right?"

She knew this was absurd, but why not try?

"Scarlett, what you said makes sense. Okay, I will try," he said.

After talking to Max, Scarlett's face, which had been looking gloomy, started to shine again as she entered the cafe.

"Is everything okay, babe?" Xander asked after Scarlett sat down.

Scarlett nods slightly while sitting beside him. She enjoys her warm coffee while telling Xander what she had asked Max.

"That's a good idea," Xander was surprised to hear her idea. She can only smile while nodding. "Even though I can't guarantee this will be successful, at least we can try, right?"

"Sure. Anything that will lead you to find mom is good. If only you'd allow my people to help you on this island, I would ask them to come."

Scarlett can hear the disappointment in his tone. "Xander, you know why I can't bring many people, right?"

He smiles at her, gently rubbing her back. "I know. That's why I can only send my people to tail Allaistar Parker."

only send my people to tail Allaistar Parker."

"Is there anything suspicious?" Scarlett asked. She knew Xander had been tailing Allaistar but hadn't been informed of the progress. Now, she was feeling slightly curious to know about Allaistar.

"Allaistar Parker flew to Paris yesterday," Xander paused, thinking whether to reveal this information or later.

Seeing her husband's hesitant expression, Scarlett became worried. "Xander, I know you are hiding something from me. Please tell me, so maybe I can help too..." She started to feel worried.

After a while, he said, "My people found from Allaistar's office that he flew to Paris for business purposes, but he didn't. He stayed at one of the mansions and had a party there."

"Party?" Scarlett was confused. "You mean he's having a gala dinner party or?" she asked. Xander shook his head. He didn't answer her; instead, he took out his cell phone and gave it to her after he opened a short video footage.

"Babe, you can check it yourself..."

Scarlett was slightly confused, but still, she watched the video. A few seconds later, her expression didn't take long to change from confusion to fury.

Her hand, which held Xander's cell phone, slightly shook as she witnessed Allaistar Parker doing something nasty, having a sex party in that mansion.

"This bastard! How dare he do this to Aunty Melinda!?" She couldn't stand to see the footage anymore and returned the phone to Xander. "I will ensure he doesn't have a chance to receive mercy, even though he is Thedor's father."

"Well, that's why I want this man detained now. This man is trash..." Xander wore the same expression as Scarlett. He despised Allaistar so much. If Scarlett hadn't held him back, he had already ordered his men to kidnap and torture Allaistar.

Scarlett's hands clenched tightly when she heard Xander's words. There was a conflict in her heart right now. She was worried that she might take the wrong step if they captured Allaistar now, but what Xander said was right; that bastard couldn't be allowed to roam freely for too long.

When Xander saw Scarlett didn't comment anything, he continued, "And my people also discovered that this is not the first time he has done this kind of thing, but every time he goes on a business trip, he—"

"Xander, I get it!" Scarlett didn't want to hear about Allaistar's disgusting actions because the more she heard, the more hurt she felt. Scarlett felt sorry for her aunt, who had a husband like Allaistar. She couldn't imagine how Aunt Melinda would handle this situation if she knew her husband's character.

She took a deep sigh before looking back at Xander. "Give me one day. If Max doesn't find anything, you may do as you wish. However, you can only capture him and keep him in your place. Don't bring him back to Royal City..." Her voice sounded chilly and shaky as she held back her anger. "I don't want Aunt Melinda to know about this too early. Before telling everything to her, I must talk to Brother Simon first..." She continued.

"I understand," Xander said. "My people are already on standby and will take action once you give us permission."

"Thank you, Xander."

As Scarlett entered the cabin, her cell phone vibrated. When Max's name appeared on the screen, it was enough to make her heart tremble, filling her with a thrill.

[Max:] I found her, but you must check it first.

Scarlett rushed to the computer room, leaving Xander behind.

"Oh, Scarlett, you're finally back," Seven stood up from his seat and continued, "Max is looking for you."

"I know. He already texted me," Scarlett said as she sat in her chair and turned on her day-to-day computer.

"Is everything okay?" Xander, who had also entered the computer room, asked. He was curious when he noticed Scarlett's tense expression after reading something on her cell phone.

"Yes. Max found what I asked for, but I need to check it first," Scarlett replied to Xander without glancing at him, her fingers dancing nimbly across the keyboard and her eyes focused on the monitor. She didn't know what Max had found but needed to look.

Before long...

Scarlett tapped her earbud to speak with Max.

"I already watched the video you sent, but I didn't find anything. Did you send the wrong file, Max?" She asked, confused.

Max had sent her almost twenty videos and 50 photos. Still, she couldn't find her mother's face in any of them, not even her mother's familiar face she often used when disguising herself.
