The Billionaire's Genius Wife-Chapter 422 Finally, Meet One (1)

There was only one hacker Scarlett couldn't defeat at the moment — Queen. But now she knew that someone out there could outsmart Queen. This piqued her interest in knowing the identity of that person.

'Who is that person?' She ponders for a moment. But later, she felt tense. 'Oh, my goodness...' her heart trembled as a thought crossed her mind. 'Mom, are you more talented than Queen? Who are you, really!?' The revelation about her mother's abilities left her feeling even more dizzy and overwhelmed.

"Sister-in-law, even though that woman hasn't contacted me in a long time... if one day she contacts me, I will definitely let you know," Alex tried to comfort Scarlett after seeing her gloomy expression.

Scarlett was pleased to hear Alex's promise. "Brother Alex, I hope she'll call you about our plans tomorrow's plans!" she said. Tomorrow's plan is her final mission with the Withers; she is determined to bring them down once and for all!

And if her mother knew about what she was doing now, she wished her mother would show up—no longer hiding from the Withers!

However, if her mother still didn't show up, then something might have happened to her. Something that would prevent her from ever showing up again, possibly even stopping any contact with Alex Hill.

'Mom, I hope you're safe out there! Please don't let my hopes fade…' Scarlett shook her head slightly, trying to shake off the terrifying thoughts of her mother's death in recent years.

After Alex left their residence, Scarlett and Xander immediately busied themselves on the second floor, in the study beside the master bedroom. Scarlett was working behind her laptop, and Xander was conversing with someone else in the corner.

Scarlett was focused on gathering all the data she had collected from the Withers server. She planned to give this file to Alex tomorrow to incriminate Jude Withers later in court, assuming she didn't kill him first. Her intention to kill the evil Jude Withers had reached its peak, but Xander always reminded her that death would be too easy for someone like him.

After a few hours of compiling all the data, Scarlett was finally successful. However, just before she wanted to nap, her cell phone vibrated. She immediately picked up when she saw it was Seven who was calling her.

"Did you get my message?" Scarlett asked after their brief greeting.

"Yeah! That's why I'm at the base camp now," Seven answered. "Three... One wants to see you. He asked you to come here. Can you do that?"

Scarlett gasped in surprise. Of course, she wanted to meet him. This was her chance after so many years. She glanced at Xander, who was seriously working behind his laptop on the study table.

"I will try to come faster," she said.

"Good! Do you want me to pick you up?" Seven offered.

"No," Scarlett immediately dismissed him. "But tell One and Two that I'm bringing my husband. If they don't like the idea, we can meet outside.

"You!!" Seven was utterly speechless. Why was she involving her husband in their organization now?

"Gosh, Seven... My hubby already knows everything!" Scarlett chuckled as she heard Seven curses on the other end. She continued, "Do you think he'll let me go there alone? He won't!!"

"Damn! Do whatever you want. I'll tell them about it. Bye!!" Seven said and immediately ended the call. Scarlett could only shake her head, staring at her phone.

Then she got up from her seat and walked toward Xander.

Scarlett tells Xander about her plan to go to Fox's headquarters and allows him to follow her, but with the condition that he waits for her in a certain area. Xander agrees, insisting on going with her no matter what.

Before long, they head to the Fox base camp. Xander, who's driving the car, feels amused as he recalls the time he came to pick up Scarlett at that same place after they had their first misunderstanding after marriage. 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ

"Babe, do you remember that night I came to pick you up at your base camp?" Xander asks, glancing at the rearview mirror to see Logan's car tailing them.

"Of course, I remember! I was so surprised; I didn't expect you to find me so soon," Scarlett chuckles, looking at Xander. "You used Brother Alex's technology to find me, right?"

"Hmm, Alex helped me a lot that night," Xander replies, showing his affectionate smile. "Babe, I heard there are twelve core teams at Fox. Have you ever met them in person?" he changes the topic, clearly curious about them.

"Of course," Scarlett frowns, feeling a bit puzzled by his question. "Why do you ask? Have you heard something about them?"

"Well, I've only heard rumors that Fox has twelve core team members, all strong individuals..." Xander's voice trailed off as a thought crossed his mind.

He looked at Scarlett before saying, "Don't tell me... you, Alex, and Casey are among the 12 core teams?" He felt excitedly anticipating her response. He could guess that his wife was not just a mere member at Fox; she had extraordinary hacking abilities, so she must have an essential role in the organization, right?

Scarlett secretly gulps, taking a long sigh before responding.

"Yes, I am. Rex and Casey are part of the core team too. But, please, don't ever talk about this to anyone, including Rex or Casey. They'll scold me if they find out I told you so much about Fox. Please... just keep it to yourself," she said, her tone serious.

Even though Xander had already suspected that his wife was not an ordinary member, he was still shocked when he heard her confession.

"Wow, my wife is so amazing..." Xander raised his hand and gently ruffled her hair. "What order are you in? Are you in the top three or the last one?" he asked curiously.

"Why do you want to know about that?" Scarlett raised her voice in surprise and narrowed her eyes at him.

When Xander saw Scarlett looking fierce, he burst into laughter. "Hahaha, baby, you look so cute with that look..." he teased, squeezing her cheeks. However, his excitement faded when Scarlett scolded him.

"Stop it, Xander Riley! You have to drive properly; you brought a pregnant woman here!"

Instantly, Xander's face turned tense. The playful smile disappeared from his face. "Sorry, baby. I just wanted to tease you and lighten the mood..." he smiled at her before focusing on the road again.

Suddenly, the car went quiet. They were both lost in their own thoughts. However, before long, Scarlett couldn't stand the silence, and she turned to Xander, saying, "They call me Three!" Her voice sounded soft, which made Xander surprised to hear it. He quickly glanced at her. "And Rex is number two!" she continues.

"Thanks for telling me, baby," Xander smiled at her. "Now, I'm not curious anymore!"

Scarlett couldn't help but smile, knowing that Xander would have kept wondering about it all the time, and by telling him, she satisfied his curiosity.

'Gosh! I couldn't hide anything from him...' she thought to herself.

Soon, their car stopped in front of a sturdy-looking black gate. This time, Scarlett used her private car, not Fox's car, which meant they had to wait for verification by the guards.

After a few minutes, the big gate slowly opened, and Xander drove his car through the gate, followed by two other cars behind them — it was Logan and Xander's guard.

As the guards recognized Scarlett with her usual look — short gray hair and makeup — they waved at her before politely allowing the car to drive deeper into the villa.

Later, their car pulled up in front of the only building there. Scarlett saw Rex standing by the main entrance, waiting for them. A faint smile appeared on her lips as she tried to get out of the car.

"Can you trust your woman, Mr. Xander Riley!?" Rex rubbed his eyebrows, annoyed to see Xander following Scarlett to their base camp. He continued, "Just let her come alone; she'll be fine!"

"Xander, don't mind him," Scarlett whispered. She smiled at Xander before shooting a glare at Rex. "Lead the way, Rex Morrison!" she Xander didn't bother responding to Rex; he just helped Scarlett out of the car.

"Xander, don't mind him," Scarlett whispered. She smiled at Xander before shooting a glare at Rex. "Lead the way, Rex Morrison!" she said before asking Xander to follow them. Meanwhile, Logan and the others waited in the car, as they were not allowed to enter the building.

As soon as she entered the living room, her heart started beating fast. She felt thrilled because she was about to meet One, the person she really wanted to see.

However, she must take care of Xander before she can meet One. She led him to her bedroom, the same one she had used the last time she stayed there.

After talking with Xander and making him agree to wait in the bedroom, she hurried to the underground meeting room, with Rex walking beside her. He appeared relaxed.

"You don't need to be so tense!" Rex chuckled, noticing how nervous Scarlett was at that moment.
