Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Chapter: 400
Recognizing the significance of the moment, Nancy was well aware that dealing
a decisive blow to someone as adept at eloquence as Millie was the appropriate
course of action.
With a sense of urgency, Nancy swiftly approached Marcus, gracefully
interjecting herself into the conversation he was engrossed in with another
gentleman.
“Mr. Ellsworth.”
“Nancy, your beauty radiates even more splendidly today. Mr. Thomas, you are
truly fortunate to have her by your side,” commented Elliot Ellsworth with
admiration.
Gazing upon Nancy's demeanor, he swiftly entertained the notion that she might
be entangled in an affair with Marcus.
That was precisely Nancy's wish—to embody both competence and beauty. But
she acknowledged that if she were to work elsewhere, people would undoubtedly
suspect her connection with her boss. Elliot's jest did not garner Marcus’
approval.
Suddenly, a woman seized Marcus’ arm. To his surprise, it was Millie, leaning
against his shoulder, adorned with a gentle smile.
Curiosity emanated from Millie’s voice as she inquired, “Pray, elaborate on what
you meant when you said my husband is fortunate.”
Marcus instinctively refrained from ejecting her.
Upon catching sight of Millie, Elliot's countenance froze, betraying a meaningful
expression. Memories of encountering her at Claudia’s birthday party flooded
back, evoking a profound sense of embarrassment within him.
“Well, behold, the illustrious Mrs. Thomas graces us with her presence,” Elliot
playfully remarked. “Truly, the Thomas Group is blessed to have an exceptional
designer like Nancy. If the company continues to prosper because of her, Mr.
Thomas will undoubtedly be content.”
“You misconstrue the situation. My husband's excellence and the Group's fame
have contributed to Nancy's success. Truly, no designer can reach the pinnacle
of greatness without a top-tier platform,” Millie eloquently countered.
Elliot's forehead glistened with sweat as he hadn't anticipated Mrs. Thomas
catching onto his joke.
“Indeed, Mrs. Thomas is right. I've learned a valuable lesson,” Elliot admitted
humbly.
Judging by their stances, Elliot keenly figured out who held the greatest
importance in Mr. Thomas’ heart. Nancy stood nearby him, while Millie lovingly
clung to his arm, resting her head on his shoulder.
“Pardon me for a moment.” Elliot excused himself.
With Elliot's departure, Millie found no need for pretense. She straightened her
posture, released Marcus’ arm, and tidied her tousled hair.
