Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Before Millie could finish her sentence, Marcus had already walked away.
Meanwhile, the fishing rod had already been retrieved from the pond.
Her cheeks flushed a deeper red, and her chest heaved with rage.
As the clock struck eight, Millie found herself drenched in perspiration.
Fortunately, the strenuous task of trimming the myriad of plants and flowers was

Once her words trailed off, she felt a piercing gaze. His eyes profound and
narrow, Marcus scanned her from head to toe.
Puzzled by his intent stare, Millie sidestepped his gaze and reached out for
another morsel of fish.
