Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“Are you truly intending to drive me to work?" Millie’s words were tentative,
seeking affirmation.
Fingers wrapped around the steering wheel, Marcus confirmed, “I made a
promise yesterday to drive you to work. But you took off before I had the chance.
Consider this as me making amends.”
Observing Marcus’ arrogant demeanor, Millie emitted a soft sigh. It struck her as
remarkable that he managed to recall the events of the prior day.
Millie circumvented the vehicle's front and settled into it.
Under Rhea’s covetous stare, the car audaciously surged through the villa’s
grand gates.
Catching a fleeting view of Millie’s petite abdomen, Marcus registered her attire
for the day—a pristine white T-shirt, radiating an aura of purity and naiveté.
Though her bosom showed a tender contour, her stomach seemed hollow and
flat.
Feeling the weight of Marcus’ probing stare, Millie started to feel ill-at-ease in the
tranquil setting. She redirected her gaze to the scenery outside, offering Marcus
a delicate, alluring side profile while shunning direct eye contact.
Leaning his elbow against the window of the car, Marcus retracted his gaze from
Millie. He observed that whenever Millie accompanied him in his car, her words
were few, consumed either by sleep or the captivating vistas outside.
His immense charm seemed to leave no impression on her.
This posed a perplexing enigma. It was a reality that she had stepped into Mia's
shoes to marry him. So, why had she not surrendered herself to him yet, given
the circumstances?
After a brief passage of time, Millie realized that his attention had shifted away
from her, and she cleared her throat unobtrusively.
“What plans do you have regarding the wedding photos? Regardless of your faith
in me, I tried my hardest to dissuade Grandma from taking them. Alas, I was not
victorious. You may argue that I lack competence, but you cannot denounce me
for duplicity.”
She even weaved the falsehood that there was love between her and Marcus.
She had given it her all. But she had never anticipated that no one would value
her efforts, and instead, she would be met with reproach and dirty allegations.
While Claudia projected a demeanor of warmth and friendliness, Millie felt her
eyes possessed an uncanny ability to pierce through all facades. It seemed to
Millie that no matter how cautious she was, she could not keep any thoughts or
intentions hidden from Claudia. After Millie had finished elucidating, she noticed
that Marcus had offered no response. Unable to contain herself, she pivoted to
look at him.
Marcus squinted slightly, and his countenance turned grave. Millie was convinced
that he still harbored mistrust towards her!
Seeing Millie’s countenance, etched with grievances, stirred up a sense of
vexation within Marcus. He was also aware that his grandmother had an
exceptionally challenging personality to contend with, so it was understandable
that Millie couldn't manage her.
