Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“No, that’s not it. 'm merely wondering why Miss Rayne would take her own life.”
“You better ensure that’s the case. If you ever dare to betray me, there won't be a
safe corner in the world for you.” Marcus warned her as he turned back to his
seat.
Once again, she was on the receiving end of his threats. Clenching the piece of
codfish tightly, Millie simmered with resentment.
After the last of the customers had left, Millie went through the usual post-work
routine. The cleaning was wrapped up, her work uniform was swapped out, and
she stretched out her tired arms.
While she had been in the private room, Fanny had been busy tarnishing her
reputation with the staff. As the cleaning began, they worked at a snail's pace,
whispering among themselves and pointing accusatory fingers at Millie. It was a
deliberate ploy to leave her shouldering the bulk of the workload.
Once Millie had recognized their game, she chose silence over confrontation,
opting to work even harder. Her resolve was firm: she’d wrap up early, regardless
of their dawdling, and head home.
Approaching the restaurant's entrance, a familiar figure caught her eye—Patrick.
He seemed to sense her too. He turned on his heel, greeting her with a warm
smile.
“Finished with work?” he asked.
Caught off guard, Millie replied, “Why are you still here?”
Patrick had settled his bill and left at least an hour ago, so his lingering presence
puzzled her.
Dodging her question, Patrick proposed, “Can I offer you a lift home? Where are
you staying?”
With that, he fished out a car key from his pocket and aimed it at a gleaming
white BMW nearby.
The sight of the sleek car left Millie a bit stunned. Patrick, who seemed barely
older than her, was already the owner of a BMW. It spoke volumes about his
ambition and success. It was clear evidence that he was a man of
accomplishment.
It seemed he had been waiting for her all this while. Confronted with Patrick’s
hopeful look, Millie gently declined his offer.
“Thanks, but I'll grab a cab home instead.”
Patrick pursed his lips and hesitated before softly advising, “Please be safe on
your way home.”
He didn’t insist on his suggestion and promptly drove off. As he left, he stole one
last affectionate glance at Millie, seemingly reluctant to part ways.
