The Billionaire's Genius Wife-Chapter 87 A Goddess
Carter was like being struck by lightning.
This was the first time he witnessed his elder brother smile and speak tenderly to someone.
Till now, his brother always gives off ice prince vibes around him. He looks like a glacier. But now? He looked like spring had come early amidst a winter storm.
'Damn!! Since when did brothers change like this?'
Impatient to see the woman who could make his brother like this, Carter looked back.
It was only a split second for him to understand why his elder brother had changed drastically. This woman was indeed stunning. She was like a goddess.
Her face was top of the league with any woman he had seen close to his brother. And her aura was so strong as if a bright light was hanging above her head — she seemed to glow.
No! She wasn't a goddess, but she might be the Queen of the elves, which made him want to give himself up and kneel before her.
Unbeknownst to him, Carter stood up from his chair and walked towards the elf queen. He stopped a few steps before her when he saw her frowning at him.
Afraid to frighten his Queen, Carter bowed a little and stretched out his hand, "Queen... I mean... sister-in-law..."
But before Carter could finish his words, and his hand touched Scarlett's hand, suddenly, someone slapped his hand.
He was utterly speechless to know his elder brother pushed him aside and stole his elf queen. 'Damn you, bro!!'
"Stop your trash act! Sit down and start eating!" Xander's blue eyes narrowed slightly as his lips smiled coldly at Carter, but a second later, his warm smile appeared as his gaze fell on Scarlett.
He said, "My dear Scarlett, let's eat..." He gently took her delicate little hand and led her beside him to her seat.
Scarlett was startled by this sudden intimate contact, but she didn't resist. She enjoyed it and acted with him to show their PDA to Carter.
"Xander, I'm sorry, I'm late..." Her voice, like a beautiful melody, echoed through the dining room.
"No problem, Babe... Hurry up before the food gets cold." He placed a few dishes on her plate and looked at her tenderly.
Carter, "..."
ραпdα n?νa| сom He was dumbfounded, watching these love birds flirting with each other at the dining table. 'Damn! Can they spare me as a single dog!?'
Feeling defeated, Carter returned to his seat. He only stared at his Elven Queen for a moment, satisfying his eyes — savoring her beauty while ignoring his heartless older brother.
After a few seconds, he looked at his brother. "Brother, could you give me a chance to properly introduce myself to my beautiful sister-in-law?" he asked shamelessly. Still, Xander didn't even glance at him, let alone answer him.
Silence means agree! Carter then turned his gaze to Scarlett. With her perfect warm smile, he said, "Sister-in-law, I'm... Carter Riley, your brother-in-law..."
Carter then reached out his hand again to shake hands politely, but instead, he held his sister-in-law's hand, and a spoon suddenly appeared in his palm.
'What the fuck!'
He was dumbfounded to see his shameless elder brother expressionlessly staring at him. His gaze looked intimidating, like devils dancing in his eyes, ready to slay him.
Carter's forced laugh sounded as if he wanted to change the tense atmosphere in the dining room. And without being told, he began to eat his breakfast in silence.
Scarlett feels amused by the way Xander treats his little brother. This man is not a good big brother. Suddenly she felt sorry for this poor Carter.
"Hi, Carter, nice to meet you..." She smiled at him when Carter finally looked up and met her eyes. She continued, "You can call me Scarlett..."
"S-Sister Scarlett, it's been an honor to know you. And congratulations on being part of the Riley family." He politely accepted Scarlett's hand for a handshake, then continued, "Sister, wait... I will give you your wedding present." He said and searched for something in his pocket.
Scarlett was surprised to hear that.
She looked at Carter curiously, not expecting him to give her anything. Somehow, she felt awkward because her marriage to Xander wasn't real. To present her with a wedding gift? It sounded too much for her to accept.
Even Xander, until now, had not given her anything, not even a wedding ring.
"Finally found it..." Carter shouted while holding a Gold Card with the words 'Riley Group' written on the surface.
He continued, "This Riley Gold Card, there are only a few gold cards like this circulating in this country and are only owned by influential people. You can use this Card at hotels, clubs, and restaurants belonging to the Riley Group. You will automatically get VVIP facilities every time you show this Card..."
Scarlett was speechless looking at the Card.
She remembered Carter had also used this Card to bribe her into accepting work with Studio Phoenix. Now, she wondered; if Carter was always using this Card, bribing others, then plenty of similar cards were out there, right!?
Scarlett was willing to accept the Card, not wanting to disappoint her brother-in-law, but she would never use it. This Gold Card was useless to her.
"Thanks, Carter, you are so nice..." Scarlett said and took the Card, but before she could do that, Xander grabbed it and returned it to Carter.
"Stop using this trash card to please my wife!" Xander snapped.
Then Xander leaned closer to Scarlett and said, "Babe... There's nothing special about that Card. Everyone can get it as long as they have money. I'll give you a black card. It's the Card that you deserve as my wife..." He raised his hand and gently stroked her hair.
She drowns in his honey pool as she is mesmerized by his gentleness.
Why is this man acting genuine? Now, she couldn't tell if this man was real or just pretending.
Carter was stupefied. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜
'Damn!! Brother is too overbearing. He even gave the Black Card to my sister-in-law!?' Carter can't believe what he hears. The Card is too priceless — there are only two cards in this world.
One was held by his grandfather, and the second was owned by his brother. Even he, the third in the line of the Riley Group, does not have the privilege to use the Card.
