บท 537: Rosalie Meet Xander

When Xander woke up, he was surprised to find his bedside empty—Scarlett was nowhere in sight. Glancing at his watch, he noted it was almost eight. This marked the first time he'd awakened without Scarlett by his side.

"Baby!?" He called but didn't hear an answer from her.

Xander immediately got out of bed, anxiously checking the bathroom. Finding it empty, he quickly changed clothes.

When he came out of the bedroom, he met Rex.

"Good morning, Xander," Rex greeted. "Did you just wake up at this hour?"

Ignoring Rex's question, Xander hurriedly asked, "Did you see my wife?"

"She's in the lab, talking to her mother," Rex half smiled, noting Xander's worried gaze. "You better not interrupt them. Come join me for breakfast—" his voice trailed off as he watched Xander leave him, striding toward the labs.

'Tsk! Such an impatient man...' Rex chuckled, observing Xander's departure, before continuing his walk toward the dining room.
