Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“Are you here for her?”
The woman's question was directed at Marcus, but he seemed lost in Millie's
appearance, his lips pressed tightly together.
“Yes. You saved her life, and I'm in your debt. If you'll allow me, I'd like to offer a
generous reward.”
Marcus’ words were for the lady of the house, but his eyes never left Millie.
His gaze on Millie was unyielding, as if fearing that a mere blink might lead to
another perilous situation for her. The initial realization that she was missing had
left him with an emptiness, a sensation as if a vital part of himself had been torn
away, and that void still lingered within him.
“You needn’t concern yourself with that,” the woman replied, dismissing the offer
with a gentle wave of her hand. “Saving her was never about money; it was
about compassion and doing what's right.”
Marcus’ thin lips pressed into a tight line, his face betraying a shadow of concern.
Had it not been for the kind intervention of the couple, Millie might have perished
in the inclement weather.
Though he had regarded her a bad woman, he found himself unexpectedly
anxious for her well-being.

place?
The situation simply didn’t add up.
Millie's attire had been altered; she now wore the hostess’s clothing, ill-fitting and
unsophisticated in appearance. Combined with her pallor, she resembled a once-
vibrant flower now wilted.
However, to Marcus, she was far from plain or unattractive.
“You both may stay awhile longer and depart when she’s recovered,” the hostess
said, kindly offering two chairs to Marcus and Derek before leaving the room with
her husband.
Derek, restless, chose not to sit and followed them out.
Marcus settled into a chair, his posture rigid. Millie's dry lips moved as she caught
his expression. There was a troubled look in his eyes.
