The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Cruz swallows hard and continues to eat.

However, Cruz's sudden change of expression made Zara raise her eyebrows. Something bothers her now, 'Scarlett can eat in this restaurant for free, every day? How come!?'

Suddenly Zara's eyes widened in surprise. She narrowed her eyes at Scarlett, who was now lowering her head to eat her food. Looks like she was avoiding eye contact.

"Scarlett, you already bought this restaurant?" When she got no reply from Scarlett, she was sure her guess was correct. "WAIT, WAIT... I know it!! Hahaha, you know how to spend your money, girl!"

Scarlett "..."

Tyler, who was sitting across from Scarlett, was shocked. "Scarlett, is that true?" He worried about her because buying a restaurant as popular as Platinum would not be cheap. "Are you going to empty your bank again!?"

"Scarlett, my girl, you should start thinking about investing in other areas!" This time, Zara seriously reminded her best friend.

It seemed that Cruz couldn't take it anymore. He wanted to clarify immediately, but seeing Scarlett's calm expression as she enjoyed her meal and ignore Zara and Tyler made him hold back. Sigh!

"Well, that's fine! It's her own money. The important thing is that she's happy..." In the end, Tyler commented. As long as Scarlett doesn't use the company's money, he will not interfere.

Thinking about it, Tyler took a deep sigh inwardly, '...Well, even if she suddenly wants to use the company's money to fulfill her hobby one day, he also can't stop her because it's all her money.'

Zara can only agree with Tyler's wise words. "Ugh! Our CEO is the best!" She raised her thumb in praise.

After that, Zara stroked Scarlett's back lightly and smiled sweetly at her. She said, "Umm... Girl, it's okay! You can spend your money however you want. But you have to give me the VVIP membership for this restaurant. I want to come to this place whenever I want to eat the heavenly food!"

"The fuck!!" Cruz mumbled.

Logan, "..."

Scarlett shook her head. She put the cutlery on the plate and then drank the water. After that, she looked at Zara apologetically. "Zara, I'm sorry I can't give you that!"

"WHAT!? W-Why? Damn, Scarlett... How did you change after coming back to this country?" Zara complains. "Why are you stingy? It's not like you were before!"

Scarlett laughed.

"I'm still the same as before. I haven't changed." Scarlett shook her head and said, "...but, I can't give you a VVIP card because this restaurant isn't mine. I didn't buy this restaurant!"

Zara raised her pretty eyebrows, feeling confused. Did she hear wrong? NO! She clearly listened to what Cruz said.

"Scarlett, don't lie to me. Cruz said you can eat here anytime you want, for free. How did you explain that?"

"Because someone gave me that privilege. So, I can come here anytime and don't have to spend money!" Scarlett smiled, seeing Zara and Tyler now looking at her confusedly.

"Who gave it to you?" said Tyler. "That person is indeed generous to you!" And he was sure that person might like Scarlett. Because someone can't do that if they don't benefit, right?

Zara nods in agreement with Tyler! But a second later, something crossed her mind.

"If I'm not mistaken, this place belongs to Riley's group, right? Do you know any of the young masters from Riley!?" Ask Zara.

Zara often hears stories about the Riley Family, the wealthiest family in Astington from Cruz. Thus, more or less, she knew that the Riley Family had 2 single young masters.

Before Scarlett could open her mouth to answer Zara, Tyler said, "Scarlett!? Don't tell me... You're getting VVIP treatment in this restaurant as payment because we accepted their movie project?" He was shocked when this thought crossed his mind.

His trip here to seal a deal with Studio Phoenix, and now, he suspects Scarlett has made another deal with them. And that is why she suddenly changed her mind and accepted this new film project. Even though she previously turned down multiple offers from a production house in Hollywood for two years.

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "Definitely not!!" said Scarlett quickly. How could she do that!?

"Oops! Sorry Boss, I'm just saying... Well, if you do that, it's alright for me too. After all, this is your company." Tyler said, and he continued to eat again.

'Braak!!'

Instantly everyone in the room looked at Cruz, who had just slammed his cutlery on the table.

Zara and Tyler were shocked to see Cruz narrow his eyes at Scarlett. 'Why is this Cruz mad at Scarlett?' their thoughts.

"Boss! I beg you, please say it!" Cruz said pleadingly. However, Scarlett rolled her eyes and ignored him. She started eating her dessert, a blueberry cheesecake.

"Sooner or later, they will find out too, Boss! So, why not be honest with them now?" Cruz continued after seeing Scarlett ignore him.

"Humph! What happened, Cruz!? Is Scarlett hiding something from us?" Zara's voice sounded curious. She sharply gazed at Cruz, waiting for his answer.

"I won't say anything, Zara. If you want to know, you can ask her yourself!" Cruz shook his head. Even though he really wanted to say something, he didn't want Scarlett to be angry with him. So, Cruz closed his mouth tight again. But inwardly, he continued to scold his Boss, who maintained to stay silent for an unknown reason.

"Scarlett! Can you explain to us? What happened? Is there something we don't know?" Zara now believes this girl must be hiding something from them. How dare you!? Does she still think of them as her close friends?

After thinking for a few seconds, Scarlett agrees with Cruz; sooner or later, they will find out about her relationship with Xander.

There's no point in hiding from them anymore.

Scarlett stopped eating her dessert and looked into Zara. She smiled at her before saying, "Fine! But I don't want you to be surprised, okay? Promise me?"

Even though she was getting more confused, in the end, she said, "Sure, sure, Boss. I promise!"

Scarlett smiled in defeat before saying, "Actually, this restaurant belongs to my husband!"

The room fell silent instantly when they heard Scarlett say, "Husband!"
