Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“Order whatever you want.”
Was he showing concern for her? Millie's cheeks warmed slightly. She glanced at
the food on the table but did not open the menu. There was no way she could
finish all of it.
Mylo’s phone buzzed. A picture message popped up, which he clicked.
“I've just received news that Lois attempted suicide by slitting her wrist. She’s
currently being treated in the hospital.”
Millie paused, and the memory of Leon rushing out of the old house in the
afternoon surfaced. Was this the reason?
Delmor looked at Marcus and Bruce with a puzzled expression. “She’s your
cousin's fiancée, the renowned gentle and virtuous daughter of the Rayne family.
Why would she resort to suicide by wrist-slitting? Girls are usually scared of
pain.”
Millie maintained her composure. Most girls who attempted suicide by slitting
their wrists did so because of emotional trauma. Given Lois’ favorable conditions,
she was likely heartbroken because of love.
“Who knows? But I heard that he kept postponing their wedding. Perhaps Lois
was hurt. Even a blind person could see that Lois deeply loved him, but he never
reciprocated her feelings.” Bruce looked serious.
A sense of melancholy washed over Millie, leaving her wondering what Leon was
thinking. Lois was a good girl.
Delmor set down his glass, reflecting for a moment. “Isn't it possible that Leon
refuses to marry Lois because he already loves someone else?”
The engagement between the two families had been established for many years.
Everyone in Preagend thought they were the perfect couple. The constant
postponement of their wedding was unexpected.
Delmor’s audacious hypothesis was instantly dismissed by Bruce.
“That's impossible. Given his frigid demeanor, no woman can penetrate his heart.
I suspect he’s deliberately seeking vengeance against our whole family. The
elders in the family are eager for him to settle down, and he’s intentionally
delaying.”
Bruce shook his head and stated, “I've never seen anyone as vindictive. He'll
never be able to move on from his past.”
Delmor disagreed with Bruce.
“You're mistaken. The crueler a person appears, the more passionate they truly
are.”
