The Billionaire's Genius Wife-Chapter 368 Fine, I Will Come!

Logan met Scarlett's gaze. He tried to keep his composure, though inside he felt a surge of anger at himself for not realizing it sooner.

Earlier, Logan had initially assumed that the individuals tailing them were solely Xander's people and Theodor's bodyguards. However, it seemed he had been mistaken.

Now, a nagging thought troubled Logan's mind; How did Scarlett become aware of the other individuals following them? And, more importantly, who were they?

"Listen, don't mention anything about someone tailing us to Theodor," Scarlett whispered, her gaze shifting towards Theodor, who had just finished his phone call and was now approaching their table. "Let's just act casual..."

"Yes, I understand, ma'am," Logan replied with a nod.

"You look annoyed, Theo..." Scarlett said as Theodor settled down next to her. "If you're busy, you can go back to your office."

Theodor chuckled before speaking, "Is it that obvious?"

"Yes. Who pissed you off?" Scarlett shook her head and began to enjoy the warm porridge and dim sum the waitress had just served.

Scarlett was used to Asian cuisine, especially Korean food, so the porridge and dim sum Logan ordered were familiar to her.

Theodor followed Scarlett to eat the unfamiliar food on the table. After a few bites of dim sum, he glanced at Scarlett once again. "It wasn't a work call. It was from home..."

"Did something happen at your house?" Scarlett asks, concerned.

"Not really, but my mother found out about Xander's arrival, so she asked me to invite both of you for dinner at our house," Theodor explained. He felt frustrated that his mother insisted Scarlett and Xander join them for dinner tonight.

He had explained to his mother that Xander already had a plan, but his mother still insisted on persuading them.

"Theo, I wish... to join you guys, but I need to consult with Xander before making any decisions. However, we can't make it for dinner tonight..." Scarlett replied apologetically.

"Yes, I understand. However, my mother also asked me to ensure that both of you can attend the King's birthday party," Theodor let out another sigh. He knew Scarlett hadn't confirmed yet, but he wanted to convey his mother's wish to her.

Feeling defeated, Scarlett finally agreed to Theodor's request. "Fine! I will come to the party!"

"Really?" Theodor exclaimed happily, relieved that Scarlett had finally agreed. His mother would be pleased to hear the news.

"Yes! However, there are conditions, you must take me somewhere..."

Theodor looked confused, noticing the seriousness in Scarlett's gaze. He replied, "Boss, I'll take you wherever you want to go!"

"Boss?" Logan muttered, confused by how Theodor addressed Scarlett.

"Oops, I mean sister-in-law," Theodor grinned at Logan. "I've heard Cruz call her that so many times, so it slipped out..." He made a quick excuse. He then turned his attention back to Scarlett, ignoring Logan's curious gaze.

Scarlett was speechless. She warned him through her sharp gaze as if she wanted to say, 'Theo, if they find out you are the one who has been chasing me all this time, you will be in big trouble!!'

After a few seconds of warning Theodor, she said, "I want to visit the central database for this country. A server that stores all the CCTV footage recorded in public spaces."

Theodor was confused by Scarlett's request. As a skilled hacker, he wondered why she didn't hack into the M Country's government database. Why did she ask him to bring her there?

"You can't help me?" Scarlett was taken aback, looking at Theodor, who remained silent and could only stare back at her, unable to say a single word. "Didn't you mention that you have extensive resources in this country? I thought you could do anything to assist me. Why the sudden hesitation?"

"Sis..." Theodor interrupted, raising his hand to signal Scarlett to stop speaking. "Of course, I can take you there. But why don't you do it yourself? Isn't it an easy task for you?" he asked in confusion.

"What do you mean?" Scarlett asks back.

Theodor leaned in and whispered to Scarlett, "Boss, why didn't you hack that place? It would only take you a few minutes, right?" he said.

Before responding, she finished the glass of water in front of her in one gulp.

"I can't do it. They sealed it tightly," Scarlett said, a bitter smile forming on her face. This was the first time she encountered such a formidable opponent, making it difficult for her to quickly find what she was looking for. She needed to physically access that server and hack into it directly.

skilled as Trinity be unable to breach their government database? Did he mishear her?

Theodor was shocked to hear her words. How could a hacker as skilled as Trinity be unable to breach their government database? Did he mishear her?

For a brief moment, he was speechless, his eyes fixed on Scarlett. He wanted to make sure she wasn't joking. However, after seeing the seriousness in her gaze, he regained his composure.

"Damn! Are you serious, Boss?!" Theodor exclaimed but quickly covered his mouth with his large palm, cursing himself for speaking too loudly and addressing her as "boss." Again.

Gulped in silence, he continued, "Hahaha, I mean, sister-in-law..." He corrected himself as he glanced at Logan. "Fine! I will tell you, Scarlett was my hidden Boss!" He was tired of hiding his slave and master's relationship with Scarlett.

"What?" Logan exclaimed in surprise. Instantly his mind filled with countless questions; Since when did Theodor work for his Young Madam? Had they met before their first meeting in New York? Did Xander know about this? 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺

Feeling overwhelmed, Logan turned his gaze to Scarlett. "Young Madam, is what Mr. Theodor said true?" he asked, seeking confirmation.

Scarlett, "..."

This time, Scarlett felt the urge to shove a slipper into Theodor's mouth. He was being too loud!

How could he blurt out their secrets without even asking for permission?

Scarlett silently cursed him in her heart and then met Logan's gaze. "No, he's just talking nonsense," she replied firmly. "Alright, we can leave now!" She stood up from her seat.

Before walking out, Scarlett asked Theodor not to follow them and assured him she would call him later with the details of the place she wanted to visit.

"Ma'am," Logan, who sat behind the wheel, glanced at Scarlett in the backseat. "Is Theodor serious about working for you? Ma'am?" he asked, still curious.

"Of course not," Scarlett chuckled. "Why would you believe him? That guy likes to joke around..."

"Indeed. He's a bit odd," Logan said, refocusing on the road ahead. Occasionally, he noticed a car following them from behind. He could easily spot them after Scarlett informed him about their presence.

Two cars were tailing them, and based on Logan's observation, he estimated there were four people in each vehicle, making a total of eight individuals following them.

Logan felt a little concerned, considering only two of them were in the car. Moreover, Scarlett had instructed him to ask Xander's guard not to follow them closely. She only wanted him to send their GPS location but not physically join them unless requested.

"Relax, Logan," Scarlett reassured him, sensing his anxiety. "Just follow the location I gave you. And, please maintain your moderate speed, don't let them know that we're aware of their presence," she advised calmly.

"Yes, ma'am!" Logan tightened his grip on the steering wheel and periodically glanced at the GPS screen before him. He didn't know their exact destination, but he can guess they were heading near the city border.

"Ma'am, could you please share your plan with me so I can be prepared to assist you?" Logan asked again after a few minutes had passed. He stole a quick glance at Scarlett, who was engrossed with her iPad, looking so calm.

Logan was not worried by Scarlett's calmness to the impending threat, having witnessed her slay eight skilled mercenaries easily in the past. He was well aware of her excellent shooting skills and expertise in martial arts.

"My plan?" Scarlett repeated, her attention briefly diverted from her iPad to Logan.

"Yes, your plan to deal with them..." Logan inquired, eager to understand her strategy.

"I don't have a specific plan. I'll simply send them to hell's door after a brief conversation," she replied casually before redirecting her gaze back to the screen of her iPad. Logan swallowed nervously.

...

"Do you have guns here?" Scarlett asked as they neared their destination. She had led them to an empty forest that she was familiar with, situated near the Fox headquarters. Fox's vast expanse of land has resulted in minimal vehicle traffic in the area.

"Yes, there are two guns and a sniper rifle," Logan replied, his gaze briefly shifting to the car tailing them. Despite the increasing distance between them, he could still see their presence.

"Good! Hand me two guns, and you stay in the car with the sniper rifle," Scarlett said while motioning for Logan to turn onto a small road. After driving a few hundred meters, she instructed him to halt the car.
