Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

She rubbed her eyes to confirm that she wasn't hallucinating. How could Millie
have survived? It was utterly unbelievable.
Millie nodded. “In the final moments, I leaped into the lake behind the building.”
After a brief pause, she continued, “Luckily, the bomb’s safety mechanism wasn't
triggered when it was attached to me. Though they bound me intricately, they
used ordinary ropes. As the end drew near, I severed the ropes and jumped into
the lake, saving myself.”
“It's wonderful that you're safe.” Lois managed to muster a smile.
Millie didn’t suspect Lois. Instead, she expressed concern for her. Despite Lois’
actions leading to the detonation of the bomb, Millie understood that Lois had
done it in a bid to save her.
“are you alright? I was worried you hadn't made it out.”
Lois felt relief that her ruse had worked and Millie hadn't discerned her true
motives for returning.
“’m fine. But later on, make sure to get yourself thoroughly checked,” Lois
advised.
Leon stood in silence, not uttering a word, but his gaze continually returned to
Millie. She was alive, and the heaviness in his heart had finally lifted.
Millie met his gaze and took the initiative to speak. “Leon, thank you for
performing the surgery on my grandmother.”
Leon maintained his typical indifference, saying, “No need for thanks. It was part
of our arrangement. Congratulations on surviving such a perilous situation.”
Millie offered a polite smile and turned to enter her grandmother's ward.
Her grandmother lay in bed, her face nearly colorless and her head wrapped in
bandages. The sight tugged at her heartstrings. However, Millie was aware that
the surgery had been successful and that things would improve. Her
grandmother would continue to heal and regain her health.
Millie settled into a chair beside her grandmother's bed, quietly keeping vigil.
The area outside the room grew silent as Leon and Lois departed and Marcus
entered the ward. “I've ensured the top doctors are attending to her. There
shouldn't be any complications. Let's head back for now and return tomorrow,” he
suggested.
Millie turned her head to regard him, momentarily puzzled. “Go back?”
Where did he mean? Wasn't she kicked out?
