The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 510  Searching Rosalie Withers (9)

Next morning.

Roland anxiously awaited his daughter at the dining table, but an hour had passed, and Scarlett had not yet appeared. He called Logan and inquired, "Why hasn't Scarlett come down yet? Have you checked upstairs?"

"Sir, Young Madam is still sleeping. Last night, she only returned home at two in the morning," Logan replied. "My daughter left the house in the middle of the night?" Roland was surprised, "Where did she go so late? Who was she with?" Worry was evident in his eyes.

"I drove her, and she went to—" Logan's voice slowly trailed off. He hesitated to reveal Scarlett's involvement with FOX, uncertain if Roland knew her affiliation with that organization.

"Don't attempt to deceive me, Logan!" Roland insisted on knowing the truth. Logan had no choice but to reveal, "Sir, Young Madam met Mr. Rex. They discussed about Ms. Withers matters—"

"I see. So he went to Fox base camp?" Roland's worries slowly disappeared when he knew Scarlett had gone to Fox headquarters last night. Besides, Rex was with her. He knew his daughter would be fine.

Logan was slightly surprised when he noticed Roland looking calm. He asked, "Sir, you already know that the young madam is involved with Fox?"

"Of course I do. My daughter tells me everything," a proud smile appeared at the corner of Roland's lips. "So, what's the matter they discuss there? Have they found a new clue?"

"I didn't know, sir. I can't enter their base camp, so I only wait for the young madam in the outer ring area," Logan explained.

Roland nodded.

"Alright, you can deliver her breakfast upstairs. And after she has had her breakfast, tell her I want to meet her."

"Yes, sir. I will..." Logan excused himself and went upstairs to check on Scarlett.

When Logan reached the second floor, at the same time, Scarlett emerged from the main room. She looked neat as if she was preparing to go out.

"Good morning, Ma'am. Are you going somewhere?" Logan asked, his confusion clearly showing from his gaze as he couldn't recall Scarlett mentioning any plans to go out today.

"Good morning, Logan. No, I don't plan to go out, but I'll be busy in the computer room," she replied while heading toward the stairs. "Did you come looking for me?" Curiosity flickered in her eyes as she noticed his early visit.

"Yes. Sir Roland asked me to bring your breakfast here," Logan said. "Do you want—"

"No need. I'll go downstairs now," Scarlett answered him while descending the stairs with Logan following closely behind.

"Is there anything else?"

"Yes, ma'am... He also asked me to let you know that he wants to talk to you after you finish your breakfast." Logan explained. "Okay. Thank you," Scarlett smiled and entered the dining room.

She was surprised to find her Father still in the room, conversing with his butler. She thought he had already gone back to his room.

"Good morning, Daughter... I thought you were still asleep," Roland mentioned, a hint of worry in his gaze as he knew his daughter had only slept for a few hours.

Scarlett greeted her Father and his butler, then sat at the designated chair for her. She could see a delicious breakfast before her. It made her hungry even more. "I heard you came home late," Roland commented, and Scarlett shot an annoyed glare at Logan. 'Tsk, Logan! How dare you inform my Father?' she scolded him silently in her mind. She wasn't afraid of her Father finding out, but she hesitated to explain the situation.

"Yes, that's why I woke up late. I'm sorry, Father, for making you wait," Scarlett smiled at him and, at the same time, sought his permission to begin eating, as she was pretty hungry.

"It's okay. Eat your breakfast... you must be hungry now," Roland said hurriedly, not pressing further. He allowed her to eat peacefully while continuing his conversation with his butler.

After Scarlett finished her breakfast, he asked her to join him in the backyard for a matter he wanted to discuss with her.

...

The two of them were now seated in the seating area at the back garden.

"Father, is there something you want to tell me?" Scarlett asked, observing her Father, who appeared hesitant to speak.

"Yes, something peculiar has occurred. The person I sent into the field reported something unusual," Roland explained, his worried gaze fixed on Scarlett, who sat across from him.

"Something unusual?" Scarlett repeated her Father's words. "What is it?" she asked with curiosity.

"They found out that one of the royal family members frequently enters this country," Roland paused, taking a deep breath before continuing, "And, to my knowledge, this person has no family in this country, nor does he have any business or diplomatic dealings, yet he frequently appears at their airport."

Scarlett was stunned, realizing that the person her Father referred to was likely the same as Daniel had mentioned to her the previous night.

She refrained from interrupting her Father, eager to hear his perspective.

"I've instructed my people to keep an eye on him. Currently, he is still in the Royal City. I've also asked them to gather information about him from the past two years..."

Scarlett couldn't help but smile inwardly. Her Father had finally stumbled upon a valuable lead, and they were investigating the same person.

"So, you're beginning to suspect that this person might have some connection to my mother?" she asked.

Roland frowned.

"Of course not. But, I'm concerned that he may have a woman in this—" Roland's voice trailed off, unable to continue his words, as he feared what he suspected might come true.

'Oh, my dear Father, why are you being so kind? I even suspect this person may be planning to dethrone you and your heir, so he sent an assassin to end your life.' She sighed silently.

Scarlett hoped Max would complete his investigation soon. She wanted to dismiss the troubling thoughts from her mind and prayed that her worst fears wouldn't come to pass. If they did, that person might face a death sentence.
