The Billionaire's Genius Wife-Chapter 527 A Touching Encounter (3)

"Mom," Scarlett held her mother's hand while walking toward the gate. "What are you erasing in—" A loud explosion could be heard before Scarlett could finish her words.

Boom!

Everyone turned and was shocked to see the two-story house engulfed in flames.

Scarlett was rendered speechless. Her mother was incredible, erasing her presence by destroying the house.

"Mom, you're amazing!" Scarlett grinned while walking beside her towards their car. Rosalie could only smile to respond to her.

For almost two decades, Scarlett only knew that her mother had already died. But apparently, she was wrong. Her mother lived. Now she could see her mother again in a healthy condition and more beautiful than she remembered.

It was still hard for Scarlett to believe that the woman who held her hand was her mother. She could feel her warmth and hear her voice after so many years had passed.

"Mom, I'm so happy to find—"

Before Scarlett could complete her words, Rosalie interrupted her. "—I'm also happy to meet you. But, how do you know I'm here?" she glanced at her, "And who are all the men who came with you?"

These were the most pressing questions for Rosalie after seeing Scarlett in this place. She had arrived with someone carrying a sniper rifle. With a glance, she sensed Scarlett's friend was no ordinary person.

Scarlett glanced at her mother, wanting to reply and ask the numerous questions swirling in her mind. However, she held back when she caught Rex's impatient gaze, urging her to hurry towards their car.

"Mom, we'll talk later. It doesn't seem safe in this area," Scarlett's words were sufficient for Rosalie to nod in agreement.

Rosalie understood. Her action to kill the guard might have alerted Allaistar's people, leading to a potential threat. Moreover, the authorities could be drawn to the scene due to the explosion.

Soon, two black vans left the area, maintaining a moderate speed as they headed towards the highway.

In the front van, Seven was the driver, and he occasionally cast glances at the middle row where Scarlett and Rosalie Withers were seated. He is still amazed they finally found her after so many months they trace her.

Rosalie, sensing the young man's occasional glances at her. She couldn't help but feel apologetic looking at the wound on his face. She smiled at him when their eyes met.

"Young man, I'm sorry for kicking you earlier..." Rosalie's gentle voice made Seven's face turn red, not with anger but with embarrassment for being kicked by her the first time they met.

Seven awkwardly smiled in response, unable to utter his feelings as he also heard a soft chuckle from Nine and Twelve sitting in the back row.

"I did it for my safety because I didn't entirely believe you are my daughter's friend," Rosalie continued.

"It's okay, Aunty... I understand," Seven finally replied, turning his gaze back to the road ahead.

Rosalie then turned to Scarlett. "Where are we heading?" She was unaware of her daughter's plan and had only heard they were heading to the airport.

Scarlett glanced at her mother. "We're flying to the Royal City..." She paused when she saw her mother's face turn pale, and a flash of shock crossed her gaze.

Rosalie was utterly shocked. She was puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Which Royal City?"

"M country," Scarlett casually answered. She was slightly surprised to see her mother's reaction, realizing that her mother wasn't aware of the recent news.

Scarlett now believes her mother hadn't realized that she had uncovered the truth about her past, including the secrets her mother had tried to hide.

Rosalie attempted to speak several times, but no words could escape her lips. She was shocked that Scarlett wanted to bring her to the Royal City in M country.

Why did Scarlett choose to go there? Did she have connections in that city? She recalled warning Jonathan never to let Scarlett go to that country. But now!?

...

"Mom, I know everything..." Scarlett said, taking her mother's trembling hand. Feeling how cold her mother's hand was, she gently squeezed it.

She continues her words while looking at her mother's confused gaze, "Over the past year, I've discovered so much about you and your past. I found out the truth about you faking your car accident... From there, I began to investigate and gather information about you."

No words came out of Rosalie's mouth, as she was simply shocked and speechless by the situation. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂

After a few more seconds, Rosalie finally asked, "Is that how you learned my real name, Rosalie Withers?"

Saying those words is enough to dry Rosalie's throat. If Scarlett said she knew everything, it means she already found out about the Withers family and knows about Roland Gilwynn, right!? The mere thought sent shivers down her spine.

Rosalie stares at Scarlett's blue eyes, waiting for her to respond.

"Yes, Mom... I know about the Withers family and who my father is..." Scarlett responded casually, but for Rosalie, it was like a lightning bolt striking her.

"He is Roland Gilwynn, right!?" Scarlett continues. She smiled, looking at her shocked mother. "Mom, I already met my father and his entire family..."

Rosalie Withers opened her mouth several times but couldn't bring out any words to refute her. She still felt shocked, realizing how little she knew about her daughter.

Her once little girl had transformed into a beautiful and brave woman. She had kept secrets to ensure a normal life for her, to prevent her from being entangled in the struggles she endured, as her life was a living nightmare.

However, her plan for Scarlett had been entirely wrong. Despite her efforts to hide her, this girl had uncovered the truth.

Now, she longed to explain everything to Scarlett, to clarify the reasons behind her actions—faking her death, fleeing, and hiding. Yet, an urgent matter overshadowed her intentions.

Her life was still in danger; the poison in her blood threatened to kill her.

'I didn't want to die! Not after I reunited with Scarlett,' Rosalie made a vow in her heart.

Rosalie now had a reason to live—a solid reason. She wants to survive and stay with her daughter.

And now, her main priority was to find Allaistar as quickly as possible.
