Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

As Marcus positioned himself before them, his gaze alternated between Millie
and Harlan, his eyes ablaze with an intensity that communicated lethal intent.
Millie, sensing his fury, braced herself for the storm unleashed.
His inquiry resonated in a cold, unrelenting tone.
“What transpired in my absence?” Marcus’ directness carried a subtle
accusation, as if Millie and Harlan had engaged in covert machinations behind
his back.
Attempting to offer an explanation, Harlan interjected, his hand alighting on
Marcus’ shoulder in a gesture of camaraderie, his words directed at Millie's
benefit.
“Marcus, there’s no need for explanations. Despite her role as your maid, she is
entitled to her privacy.”
“And what are you clutching?” Marcus’ focus remained unyielding as he
redirected his inquiry.
Millie's heart raced, the album in her arms symbolizing a treasury of intimate
moments. Avoiding Marcus’ gaze, she stammered, “Just... nothing much. I was
about to go back.”
Harlan’s voice chimed in, bearing an air of chagrin, “Why the anger? Be mindful
not to distress my dear girlfriend. Remember, she is my future wife.”
Marcus’ reaction was immediate and charged, his hand forcefully shedding
Harlan’s touch from his shoulder. A gaze harboring a potent mix of fury and
suspicion bore into Harlan.
“What did you say?”
It was an unprecedented sentiment—Marcus harboring an urge to throttle his
usually reliable partner.
Caught in the crossfire, Harlan registered the anomaly, his surprise evident.
“why this vehement response? I merely noted her admirable qualities. It's a
shame for her to remain a mere maid in your household. I've resolved to pursue
her, ask her to be my girlfriend, and perhaps even the future Mrs. Curtis.”
Yet Marcus’ conviction was unwavering; an ironclad declaration was issued
without hesitation.
“That is an impossibility. Leave her be, or be prepared to face the
consequences.”
Marcus’ annoyance radiated, an aura of tension enveloping him. His gaze shifted
to Millie, who had swiftly retreated and began her escape.
