Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Chapter: 372
“Madam, this is the situation. Mrs. Barton expects the Thomas Group to craft a
necklace for her. We believe it's an unstated but crucial prerequisite for this
partnership.”
“If I were in Nancy's shoes, I'd be here regardless of my health condition. The
Thomas Group has been nothing but generous toward her. She's showing
excessive pride. Despite the doctor’s assurances, she insists on feeling unwell. I
suspect she’s feigning illness.”
The other one glanced at his watch and announced, “Madam, we must make our
way inside.”
Once the two men departed, Millie reflected for a moment, and it dawned on her
that Marcus was indeed in a pickle.
Millie proceeded straight to the forest and the frozen lake situated at the
mountain’s base. It took her more than two hours to complete a full walk around.
During her retum journey, Millie chanced upon Mrs. Barton and her secretary,
Simon, strolling in the forest.
Mrs. Barton appeared dignified and elegant, donning a hat that complemented
the style of her cloak. Despite being over 50 years old, she radiated a remarkable
and captivating aura. Time had left its mark on her face, but it only seemed to
enhance her beauty.
As Millie admired Mrs. Barton from afar, she couldn't help but wonder if Marcus
had concluded his conversation with Mrs. Barton.
Meanwhile, her mind drifted to the biography she had recently read about this
remarkable female entrepreneur. The book depicted Mrs. Barton's inspiring
journey, fraught with numerous setbacks, but she always found the strength to
persevere and overcome challenges.
Mrs. Barton lost her parents at the age of five and was subsequently adopted by
a couple who unfortunately subjected her to abuse. Despite these challenges,
she persevered and managed to overcome them. However, when she turned
twenty-two, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent surgery for it.
Tragically, following the surgery, her husband divorced her and remarried another
woman. The story left a deep impression on Millie, fueling her admiration for the
resilient woman she now saw before her.
Mrs. Barton’s daughter passed away at twenty-six, and at twenty-eight, her
business partner betrayed her, leaving her homeless with her son.
At thirty, tragedy struck again when her son was shot on his way home from
school.
Since then, Mrs. Barton had been left to face life’s challenges alone.
At thirty-three, she was falsely accused and imprisoned for seven years.
Nonetheless, after her release, Mrs. Barton's unwavering spirit led her to
establish a highly influential diamond raw material company.
Despite expressing her desire to die multiple times, she steadfastly refused to
surrender to fate.

to deduce that he rarely used cameras.
