The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Shortly after...

Zara was the first to regain her senses after hearing this shocking news.

"Wait! Scarlett, you said WHAT?" She asks in her high-pitched tone. Her tone clearly conveyed her current mood; shock and disbelief simultaneously.

Scarlett calmly looks at Zara. "Hmm, yeah. Please don\'t pretend you didn\'t hear me the first time, girl. My husband!"

"Bwahaha..." Loud laughter echoed throughout the room as Zara couldn\'t hide her laugh. Scarlett\'s nonsense was hilarious.

Does this girl claim she got married in such a short amount of time?

How could she believe that? She had been with Scarlett for several years and knew who exactly Scarlett was.

No! Impossible! If she did, people would believe her because she could seduce men with just her fingers. But Scarlett? No one will believe it.

Even though Scarlett is beautiful, her personality is timid around men. She will not utter a single word when a man approaches her.

And now, this girl claims to be married? Only a child would believe it! She wouldn\'t buy the humor.

"Geez! Scarlett, my baby girl... your humor is dry!" Zara shakes her head with a chuckle. "...but I applaud your efforts, honey. Alright, eat more of your dessert. It seems your sugar is low, so you can\'t make anything funnier!"

Scarlett sighs!

Zara didn\'t see Scarlett\'s expression, which had now turned annoyed. Zara was already looking at Cruz sitting in front of her.

"Cruz, please order for our pretty boss her favorite chocolate cake. Thanks, Cruz!" Zara politely smiled at Cruz and looked at Scarlett again.

"Honey, don\'t tell that kind of joke, okay? Not again." Zara pats Scarlett on the shoulder gently.

When their eyes meet, Zara continues, "I know you really want to have a boyfriend, and I promise to help you this time. I will make sure you meet your soulmate..." She nodded slightly to convince Scarlett that she was serious with her promise.

Scarlett, "..."

Logan and Cruz were utterly speechless.

"Zara! I\'m serious. I\'m married!" Scarlett said helplessly. She knows Zara will never believe her because, in this world, only Zara knows her better; she has trouble making a friend, especially a man. She doesn\'t have many male friends, just Rex, and her coworkers.

Even in school and college, she didn\'t have any close friends — She is no longer in touch with her college and school friends.

Her ability to socialize with other people is terrible. Hence, she is only friends with a few people — mostly Rex\'s friends.

Tyler, who had been silently looking at Scarlett, could see the seriousness in her eyes. This girl wasn\'t lying. She\'s serious about what she said.

"DAMN IT!!" For the first time in years, Tyler cursed. And that made Zara, Scarlett, and Cruz surprised to see him. They were now looking at him with shocked expressions. However, Tyler\'s eyes were sharp on Scarlett.

"Scarlett, are you married to Rex? And he bought this restaurant for you!?" Tyler asked.

He was startled when this thought crossed his mind; Rex Morrison was the only person who can make Scarlett agree to marry.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Tyler knew that Rex had treated Scarlett differently from other women all this time. This girl was special in Rex\'s heart. He had taken care of her since she was in her early teens.

Zara was shocked to hear Tyler\'s words. Yes! That must be Rex. Only he can make Scarlett decide to marry.

"Hahaha, why do I forget about Rex? Gosh!! Yeah, it must be Rex Morrison, right?" Zara narrowed her eyes at Scarlett. "Scarlett Piers, how dare you two get married without telling us??" Zara suddenly felt betrayed.

She befriends Rex and Scarlett, but the two think nothing of her. They get married without telling her.

Then Zara\'s eyes caught a beautiful pink diamond ring on Scarlett\'s finger. She could only smile bitterly — now she believed Scarlett was telling the truth. This girl was indeed married.

Zara felt happy for Scarlett and Rex, but simultaneously, she felt jealous. She never imagined this girl would get married before her.

Scarlett, "..."

Logan, "..."

Cruz felt like banging his head on the table, stressed hearing their conversation!

"Zara, you are wro..." Before Scarlet finished her words, Zara said.

"Let me call Rex now! That man is really asking for a beating!! How dare he marry you without telling me!? Telling Tyler?" Zara takes her mobile.

"NO!!" Shout Scarlett.

In an instant, Zara\'s cell phone had moved into Scarlett\'s hands. She tosses Zara\'s New iPhone to Cruz, who spontaneously catches it. Cruz was shocked, and so was Zara, who glared at her new phone — too afraid it would fall and break!

"Scarlett!? What are you doing? It\'s a limited edition okay!!" Zara snapped. She raised her beautiful eyebrows in confusion. "Why did you stop me? I need to scold him, alright! That man deserved my nags!"

Tyler, who was still in shock at hearing this shocking news, was more able to remain calm. However, he was secretly disappointed with Rex, who was secretly married to Scarlett. In his heart and mind, he considered them not just friends but they were like family.

"Zara! Can you please stay calm? You can complain to Rex, but this is not the right time. Can we enjoy this lunch in peace!?" He said calmly with a warm smile on his face.

Zara, who was still glaring at Scarlett for snatching her cell phone and stopping her from contacting Rex, finally felt calmer after hearing Tyler. She looked away from Scarlett, but her annoyance was still evident.

Scarlett sighed long while looking at Zara, who was still annoyed with the news, and Tyler.

"Zara, Tyler... you guys misunderstood." Scarlett didn\'t want her two best friends to misunderstand. She had to explain to them, "I\'m not married to Rex! Rex is not my husband..."

Everyone in the room turned to Scarlett, including Logan and Cruz, who were relieved. Finally, this misunderstanding is over!

Zara frowned, more and more questions swirling in her mind. She couldn\'t help but ask, "If not Rex, then who, Scarlett? Who? Is he someone I know?"
