Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“Gemma, please go back inside. I'm okay, I don’t want you to fall ill,” urged Millie.
“T can't just leave. How can I assist you in this deluge? Mrs. Thomas is genuinely
enraged this time. If she refuses you shelter for the entire night, you'll surely fall
sick. Madam, I'm certain that Miss Evans provoked you first, causing you to push
her into the lake. I've long known that Miss Evans is two-faced. She adopts a
gentle, kind demeanor around Mrs. Thomas but reveals her overbearing, fierce
side towards us servants. She’s quite a performer.” Gemma expressed empathy.
Moved by Gemma's trust and audacity, Millie squeezed her hand in appreciation.
“I appreciate your concern, but you must listen to me. Don't fret over me, return
indoors.”
“But what about you?”
“Don’t worry, I have a plan. I'll leave here right away and seek my friend.” Millie
cast a glance at the brightly lit mansion, then redirected her gaze towards the
grand entrance amidst the pouring rain.
She felt the biting cold. Why should she bear this punishment? Why was she
standing here, tolerating such humiliation?
Abruptly shoving Gemma aside, Millie spun and sprinted towards the entrance
gate.
Marcus scoffed, amused by her defiance.
“She bolted?! Quite a gutsy move.”
“Isn't that expected? Millie is no fool. As a young woman, she’s undoubtedly
doted on by her parents. How could she endure such mistreatment? Ah, I recall
seeing her earlier, restraining her anger and nearly grinding her teeth to bits.
Could she do something rash?” Bruce voiced his worries.
Without a beat, Marcus retorted, “That's not her style.”
“Don't be so sure. Millie’s pride is not to be underestimated. You know the saying,
Better to die standing than to live kneeling.”
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning split the sky, startling Bruce, who instinctively
stepped back.
“Damn, that was frightening! I'm not going home tonight. I'll just make do here.
What dreadful weather this is!”
