The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 375 The Result!



Scarlett went into the bathroom to freshen up. She removed her shirt and jeans, changing into clean, casual home clothes.

Just as she was about to leave the bathroom, Xander returned to the room and brought her a pregnancy test.

Her hand trembled as she held the pink box. Once again, she found herself hesitating before entering the bathroom.

“X-Xander, please wait here!” Scarlett stopped him from following her inside.

“Why?” he asked, confusion evident in his voice.

“I won’t be able to pee if you’re in there with me…” she said, offering an awkward smile.

“Hahaha. Baby…” Xander couldn’t hold his laughter. “I’ve seen you pee before, and I’ve seen your entire body. Why are you stopping me now?”

“This is different, Xander. Please just wait outside, okay!?” she pleaded sincerely.

“Fine! But let’s see the result together, alright!?”

“Yes, we’ll look at the results together!” she promised.

Scarlett closed the bathroom door behind her and nervously opened the box. It didn’t take long for her to complete the test. She placed the test kit in the sink and emerged from the bathroom, looking for Xander.

She saw him pacing tensely, not far from the bathroom door. When their eyes met, he asked, “Are you done?”

“Yes. Let’s see the result, Xander.” Scarlett held his hand and led him back into the bathroom. However, just before they passed through the doorway, she abruptly halted. “Wait a moment! Let’s close our eyes and open them on the count of three. How about that?”

“Hmm,” Xander could only smile at Scarlett’s excitement. He didn’t say anything, simply nodding and following her lead. He playfully cautioned her, “Baby, be careful not to bump into anything.”

Soon, they both stood in front of the sink.

“I’ll count to three. Don’t peek, Xander!” Scarlett instructed.

“Yes, hurry… hurry, babe!”

“One, two, three….” she counted aloud, and they both opened their eyes on cue.

Instantly, a scream escaped from Scarlett’s mouth, “OH-MY-GOD!!” She covered her mouth with her palm, holding back the tears that threatened to spill. Even though she had suspected she was pregnant, she was still taken aback to see the positive sign on the test.

Frozen in place, Xander struggled to contain his emotions as he witnessed the result he had longed to see. A smile spread across his face, and he was at a loss for what to do next.

However, his trance was short-lived as he noticed his wife’s tears. Snapping back to reality, he hugged her tightly, holding her close and gently kissing her forehead. 𝐨𝘃𝗹.

“My wife, congratulations! We’re going to be parents…” Xander whispered in a trembling voice, overwhelmed with happiness and deeply moved by the moment.

Scarlett couldn’t find the words to respond; she returned Xander’s tight embrace. An indescribable joy enveloped her completely. This newfound feeling was entirely novel to her, and she cherished it.

“I’m going to be a mother,” she whispered softly, almost to herself.

Two days later.

For the past two days, Scarlett had embraced her role as a princess in her own castle, pampered and protected by Xander.

She spent her time lounging on the couch, indulged in her favorite snacks, and binge-watched her beloved TV shows.

Xander, determined to protect her from discomfort, has forbidden her from lifting even the lightest object, much to Scarlett’s amusement. However, this over-treatment was starting to scare her. Because she can’t do whatever she wants.

Luckily today Xander has to go to the office because he has an important meeting at his office that he can’t ignore.

Scarlett uses this opportunity to ask Xander to let her work from home. She feels delighted because Xander allows her — she calls Cruz to meet her at home.

As she reclined on the couch, a knock on the door interrupted her Netflix marathon. It was a female maid. She informs her that her guest has already come.

Scarlett’s eyes lit up with delight. She immediately went down to meet Cruz. She is kind of missing his bubbly assistant.

“Cruz! Oh, nice to meet you!” Scarlett’s voice is full of excitement. She chuckled as she looked at his bright outfit; a sky-blue shirt and white trousers.

Cruz widely grinned as he looked at his boss. He had expected her to come to the office two days ago, but Logan informed him that she wouldn’t be coming for a few days. He was confused, but when he tried to call her, he couldn’t reach her.

Today, however, Logan finally calls him and tells him about something that makes his heart almost stop beating; Scarlett was pregnant.

“I heard the news. Congratulations, boss,” Logan said, his voice trembling with happiness.

Scarlett giggled, genuinely delighted by Cruz’s presence and sweet words. “Thank you, Cruz. You’re so kind. Please, have a seat. I need to share all the details with you.”

Cruz was the first person, aside from her family members, to learn about her pregnancy. In fact, she hadn’t disclosed this news to Rex, her best friend Zara, or even her uncle Noah.

She intended to wait until the first trimester passed, as her pregnancy was still in its early stages. Announcing it now would be too risky.

Cruz’s gaze remained fixed on hers as they settled on the couch. He attentively listened as she shared how she had discovered her pregnancy and described how Xander was now confining her like a prisoner in their house.

“Oh, come on, boss. Why do you complain about it?” Cruz rolled his eyes. “Every pregnant woman out there would be envious of you to no end! Trust me…” he said.

“Hahaha, indeed. When my husband insists on spoiling me, I can’t complain. At first, I was excited. The feeling was like I landed on cloud nine, but after two days, I was bored without my usual activities.” Scarlett shook her head.

“Boss, endure it!” Cruz laughs before continuing, “I’m overjoyed for you and Boss Xander. I still can’t believe I’m going to be an uncle…” he giggled.

“Thank you, Cruz. By the way, I hope you haven’t revealed my pregnancy to anyone. It’s still too early to announce it,” Scarlett reminded him.

Cruz froze upon seeing Scarlett’s reaction. “Oh, crap! Boss, I’m sorry. I accidentally shared it in the group chat,” he said, filled with regret.

Scarlett was utterly speechless, unable to find the right words to express anger. She just scolded him through her sharp gaze.

Gosh!
