Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

A wave of disappointment washed over Millie. It seemed like she was just getting
ahead of herself.
As Millie disappeared into the hospital, Marcus’ gaze hardened into an icy stare.
He beckoned to a figure lingering in the corner of the parking lot.
Approaching Marcus, the middle-aged man seemed uneasy. It was Jonas
Gomez, Brock’s former secretary.
Faced with Marcus’ frosty demeanor, Jonas was intimidated.
Internally, he conceded it was no surprise that Marcus was the youngest heir of
the Thomas family.
“You've been following me throughout this whole time. What do you want from
me?” asked Marcus.
“Mr. Thomas, I'm Brock’s secretary. I'm here on his behalf. He's been captured by
some casino thugs. They've locked him in a small cage and are torturing him!
He's... in an awful state, sir,” Jonas explained.
“Didn’t he get out last night?” Marcus retorted, barely interested in the
conversation.
Jonas was dumbfounded. Brock was overseas now, and yet Marcus seemed to
know his predicament in detail. He was surprised and amazed of how wide
Marcus’ network was and how capable the latter was.
“He did manage to escape. He was saved, but he’s still terrified. The casino mob
won't let it slide. Please, I'm begging for your mercy.”
“His issues have nothing to do with me. You shouldn't be coming to me for this,”
Marcus responded dismissively, patting the hood of the car.
“That is a fact, sir, but please don't leak his location to anyone. He has come to
realize the errors of his ways. Please, have mercy on him,” Jonas pleaded.
“Brock started this whole mess. He can’t just end it whenever he feels like it. You
may leave now.” Marcus shot Jonas an icy glance. It was too late for Brock to be
afraid now.
“Mr. Thomas! Sir, please...”
Jonas’ pleas were cut short as Marcus headed towards a jewelry shop.
Meanwhile, in Grandma’s hospital room.
“Grandma, is the porridge too hot for you?”
