Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Chapter: 426
Millie's shocking victory over Nancy came as a complete surprise, not only to
Marcus but to everyone who knew about the competition.
Upon hearing his demand, Millie's heart sank in realization. Marcus evidently
began to feel she was concealing too much, and that was why he began to exert
pressure on her to reveal her secrets.
“Everything is as it seems. Is it that unbelievable that I defeated Nancy? She’s
not a god. Even someone like her can fail sometimes. Also, just because I
haven't produced anything yet that could be considered a signature piece doesn’t
mean I'll never have one,” Millie retorted.
“Nancy has never lost a competition ever since she started working for the
Thomas Group,” Marcus stated.
“she just did, didn’t she? The fact that someone has never lost before is no
guarantee that they never will.”
When Marcus did not respond and continued to stare at her, Millie thought for a
while before continuing, “Have you ever heard of the expression, “We are all
seeds that will bloom in due time’? Some flowers bloom before others, and I just
happen to be one of the late bloomers.”
“Millie.”
“What?”
“Has anyone ever told you that you have twisted logic?”
For a moment, Millie did not know how to respond. She had come across that
quote in a book. It was someone else’s words, not hers. In other words, it was not
her logic that was twisted.
Marcus furrowed his brow when he realized Millie would not be opening up to
him anytime soon. She was guarding herself against him as she would against a
thief.
Sighing, he stepped away from her and left the room to prepare for the contract
signing.
Millie bent down to grab the chair she had knocked over and placed it in its
original spot. Afterward, she walked out of the room.
As soon as she stepped out, Dustin came up to her, pulling at his sweat-
drenched clothes.
“So, how did the competition go? Did you win?" Dustin asked eagerly.
Millie rolled her eyes. She had come dangerously close to losing the competition
earlier.
“Thanks to you, I almost lost without even having a chance to put up a fight.”

If you lost because of me, I'd have to jump off a building to apologize.”
“Thank you, anyway. You must be exhausted,” Millie said appreciatively.

Dustin made it in time to give Millie
the necklace, and she was moved by
the gesture. She did not think he
would be able to get here in such a
short amount of time by just running,
but he did. He must have been
completely worn out by the end of it.
