Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“Millie, we've been searching for you. Marcus has come to take you home. Let's
go.”
Millie was taken aback. She couldn't fathom that Marcus had arrived to escort
her.
“[ won't go back. I'm staying with my friend tonight, and I have no plans to return.
I'm tired of enduring punishment every day. Plus, I don't believe I did anything
wrong. I was merely defending myself,” she clarified, well aware that Celeste’s
punishment wouldn't cease.
Bruce was taken aback by her declaration, yet he tried to persuade her gently.
“Millie, Marcus personally came to collect you. I've never seen him do this
before.”
Bruce found today’s events quite shocking. Marcus, the high-ranking young
master of the Thomas family, had never deigned to find someone in the middle of
the night.
Refusing to face Bruce, Millie retorted, “It's also the first time I've been ousted
from my home. No matter how severe our disagreements, I've never been
abandoned in the rain.”
Noticing Millie's refusal, Bruce went back to Marcus and reported, “Millie is
adamant. She won't come back.”
“I find myself here in the middle of the night, searching for her. After two long
hours, I locate her in this shabby restaurant, only to be snubbed. Her lack of
experience and social skills is quite evident,” Marcus commented coldly, a wry
smile gracing his lips.
Bruce felt unsettled, noticing Marcus’ growing impatience.
Grace pondered for a moment, then voiced her opinion.
“Millie, it might be wise to return. Marcus making the effort to pick you up is a rare
occurrence.”
Millie tumed and shook her head.
“I doubt his intentions are benevolent. There's likely a punishment awaiting me.
As they say, unprovoked kindness is a mask for malevolence.”
Reflecting on Marcus’ chilling expression as he turned away, Millie shuddered.
She felt that going back would be like diving into a pit of fire.
Grace was taken aback by Millie’s assertions but found them plausible.
Awhile later, Millie’s phone pinged with a message from Marcus.
“Return now. I'm running out of patience.”
