Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

k him. I'm sure he'll gladly tell you the answer.” smiling mockingly, Leon walked
away from them.

Millie felt a shiver run down her spine at the sight of his smirk. When she turned
to Marcus, she caught the way his face flushed with wrath, looking extremely
hostile and unapproachable.

Their eyes locked, and she felt a lump form in her throat as if a dagger had been
thrust through her by his penetrating gaze.

Then, it occurred to Millie that Marcus’ expression of displeasure was prompted
by what Leon had just said about her being his weakness. He probably thought
she would prevent him from achieving his goals.

Millie rolled her eyes. She took a deep breath, approached Marcus confidently,
and tapped his chest.

“Don’t worry. I won't become your weakness, and I have no plans to bring you
down.”

Her brazen behavior shocked Marcus. Seriously, he had never met a woman like
her before.

Millie retracted her hand and waved it playfully. She looked adorable and feisty at
the same time.

Marcus could not help but let out a snort. “You think you're made of steel and
invincible, don’t you?”

“For your information, I've been honing my survival skills since I was young. I'm
handy in the farming field and at fishing in the river. So, yes, I think I'm pretty
invincible,” Millie declared confidently.

Marcus fought the urge to roll his eyes. Her naive confidence was once again at
play.

“Do you really think that just because you can fend for yourself and avoid
starving means you won't be my weakness?” Marcus retorted in his distinctively
deep voice.

Millie raised her head defiantly.

“No matter what, I won't let myself be an easy target. I've gotten this far by not
giving up. I'm resilient, and I face problems without fear. I won't be your Achilles
heel, so stop worrying about it.”

She realized that, as his wife, she was a prime target for any attempts made
against him. After all, people tended to go after their enemies’ families and
friends first.

However, she was no easy target, having overcome many obstacles since she
was a child. Upon seeing Marcus’ doubtful expression, Millie shook her head
before continuing her persuasion.

“T lost my mom when I was still a

child. Not long after that, my pathetic
excuse for a father married another
woman, Gianna. She's a very vicious
person, and no one knows this but

me. I'd been tormented by her more
times than I could count. Look at this
scar. I got it when she poured boiling
water on me. I remember crying and

after it happened. In the end, though,

I survived my childhood unscathed.
