The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 9 Lose Respect



In the President Suite at the Beachfront hotel,

Xander hears all the conversations at Scarlett\'s house. Knowing how vicious Scarlett\'s parents were, he was at a loss for words.

No wonder the girl accepted his proposal for a contract marriage — she wanted to be free from her family.

"Ben, did you hear everything?"

"Yes, master." Ben felt angry knowing there were shameless parents like the Piers family, "Please give an order, Master..."

"Who is Mr. Frans?"

"He is Frans Wood, the third son of the Wood Family. He doesn\'t have a significant position in Wood Group. He is just a Director in one of their branches…" Ben reported. He had been investigating Frans Wood after what happened to Miss Scarlett Piers.

"Wood!? They are just a small company. How dare they use their power to push Piers into such a situation?"

"Ocean Group belonged to Miss Scarlett\'s biological mother\'s family. But her biological mother had died, and the company is now run by Jonathan Piers, the husband. Unfortunately, he does not know how to run a business. And since Lauren Piers, the second wife, entered the company, their business began to decline even further. As a result, they are in debt to Frans Wood…."

Xander silently listened as he stood up from his chair and walked towards the glass window. He stood there looking out over the vast blue sea below as he focused on listening to Ben\'s report about the Ocean group.

After a long silence, Xander calmly said, "Keep Frans busy. He doesn\'t have time to take care of Piers. Passing my message to Old Wood, I want him to cut ties with his third son and not give him a chance to return to this industry. Otherwise, Riley will see him and his family suffer!"

"Consider it done, master…."

"As for Piers, pay off all their debts. Acquired the company, Ocean Groups…." Xander was silent as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he continued, "Use a pseudonym when you acquire the company. Ensure that nothing can be pointed at me during the acquisition process, directly or indirectly. I will give the company to Ms. Scarlett as our wedding present. That surely would make my future wife excited."

Out of virtue, Xander plans to give Scarlett the Ocean Group after completing their one-year marriage contract. The company belonged to her birth mother, so it is her birthright to own the company, not her greedy father.

Ben was stunned hearing his words. After learning his Master was about to register his marriage to Miss Scarlett Piers, he first addressed her as \'wife.\'

Now his doubts about their wedding plans are slowly fading. Before today, Ben wasn\'t sure whether his master was earnest about marrying that girl. The girl had nothing to be proud of — she wasn\'t as beautiful as a woman close to his master. The girl was also not as wealthy as the young lady from a prestigious family in the Capital.

Xander Riley is known as a playboy because he often changes female partners when attending important events. He is also repeatedly caught on camera having dinner with several beautiful women. However, no one knows that Xander is so picky when it comes to finding a partner. Only a few women can talk and spend private time with him.

"Permission to dismiss, Master. I will carry out your instructions at once..." Ben said and disappeared from the room.

Back at the Piers Family home,

Scarlett didn\'t want to stay there too long. The longer she was in the same room with this shameless woman, the more her headache became. This damn woman managed to brainwash her father.

"If Father believed her that much, no matter how much I explained to you, you wouldn\'t hear me…." Scarlet bitterly laughed as she stood up from the chair.

Lauren Piers secretly smiled happily before saying, "Scarlett... how can you accuse your mother like that!?" She pretended to wipe the dry corners of her eyes to get sympathy from her beloved husband.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Scarlett was speechless at how capable this woman acted.

"Starting today, I will be moving out of this house. I will never come back here as long as this woman is still here…" Scarlett said while looking into her father\'s eyes — she wanted to know, was there any warmth left there?

She felt her heart tighten as she found nothing left. Her father was utterly bewitched by this damn woman — he didn\'t even think of her as his only daughter.

Scarlett tried to control her emotions so as not to show them that she was feeling heartbroken right now.

\'This is the right choice! I have to get out of here to not be tainted by this evil woman. I\'m not really leaving, but I\'ll be back to take everything that should be mine!\'

Scarlett smiled one last time at her father and turned away.

At the same time, Aunt Lana was standing at the end of the stairs, and beside her were two large suitcases.

Seeing Scarlett wanting to leave the house seriously, Jonathan panicked even more.

"Scarlet! Don\'t joke about this kind of thing. Stay! This is your house. Why should you move?" Jonathan never imagined his daughter would decide to leave this house. Did they push her too far? That\'s why she had no other choice but to leave!?

Jonathan stood up from his seat and walked quickly towards Scarlett. He blocked her path, "I won\'t let you go! You can\'t leave this house…." If her daughter goes out, he won\'t get a chance to introduce her to Mr. Frans.

"You can\'t stop me. I\'m not a child. I\'m an adult. I have the right to choose my life." Scarlett paused to smile. "And why should I stay here when you two try to sell me to an old, filthy man? I will never let you control my life." She still couldn\'t believe that her father trusted his wife more than his biological daughter.

When her foolish father believes Lauren\'s word, who denied using drugs on her at the time, Scarlett completely loses Respect for him.
