Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Millie quickly stood and said, “Grandma, I'll go speak with Leon. There was a
medical question I've been meaning to ask him.”
“Go ahead, dear.” Claudia nodded once more.
Before long, Millie was at the door, looking alive and ready.
“Good news! Grandma said yes. You can stand up now.”
Leon perked up at this, his body instantly rigid. The sight of Millie, with her lovely
face and almond-shaped eyes, was always a delight.
The ease with which grandma gave her blessing was a pleasant surprise. It was
a clear sign of how much she liked Millie.
Leon had been on his knees for what felt like hours. He slowly stood up, letting
his senses return. His black trousers bore the mark of dust, but it did little to hide
his simmering anger.
Seeing Leon get up and walk towards the car made Millie's joy fade in an instant.
Wait, what?
Did he forget something? He had just agreed to perform surgery for her
grandmother, but he didn’t mention anything about it now.
Catching up to him, Millie quickly said, “Hold on a minute. You agreed to operate
on my grandma. But it seems like you're in a hurry to do something else. Why
don't you handle your business first, then we can talk about the surgery. Does
that sound good?”
Leon had reached his car by then and halted. He turned his impassive face
towards her, his voice frosty. “Did you seriously believe all that? It was a lie.”
Millie felt a wave of confusion wash over her. She must have misunderstood.
“Are you joking?”
Leon responded with a mocking grin, “l was just pulling your leg. So are you
naive or just plain foolish?”
“What are you saying? You're trying to swindle me?” Millie's mix of anger and
anxiety came to the surface. She reached out and grabbed Leon's arm, stopping
him in his tracks.

“You're so cruel. You deceived me,” Millie retorted, glancing back and slowly
releasing her grip.
“Thanks for putting in a good word for me with grandma. I'll be on my way now,”
Leon responded, his gaze cold and distant, his eyes heavy with melancholy. He
stepped into his car and shut the door behind him.
