Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“He's not home yet at this time? Millie, exercise greater caution; don’t be
complacent.”
Millie's gaze fixed on the message from Grace, a moment of brief surprise
registering in her expression.
“Complacent ?”
“Yes. Your husband is an attractive figure, a magnet for attention from many
women. You should be on your guard. I'd suggest setting some boundaries for
him, perhaps even imposing a curfew. Men are often swayed by their desires,
and vigilance serves as the prudent course.”
Grace's earnest counsel hung in the air, eliciting a momentary silence from Millie.
Never before had she questioned Marcus’ late returns, attributing them to work-
related social obligations. Grace's perspective was an angle Millie had never
considered.
“Millie, are you still there? Don’t overthink it. I was just sharing a thought.”
“Alright, we'll catch up later. Take care.”
Millie shook her head, deeming Grace's concerns a tad excessive.
Resolving to address the situation, Millie placed a call to Marcus, who promptly
answered, offering assurance that he was engaged in a social engagement and
would return after its conclusion.
Post-call, Millie retreated to the dining area, a gentle tap against her chin
signaling her introspection. She had erred in her calculations; her culinary
enthusiasm had led to an excess of food that she couldn't possibly consume
alone, a prospect that weighed on her sense of wastefulness.

Meanwhile, within the confines of Harlan’s villa, Marcus ended his call, his pallor
registering a hint of relaxation.
Seated by his side, Harlan teased, “Was it the maid ringing?
Remarkable, even a maid seems to double as a painkiller, capable of alleviating
your discomfort.”
Contrary to his earlier claims, Marcus wasn't partaking in a social gathering.
Instead, a doctor dispatched from the island had taken charge of tending to his
wound.
“This medication carries a potent punch; applying it will mimic a blade’s piercing.
Mr. Thomas, brace yourself,” the doctor uttered as he administered the
medication.
True to the doctor's forewarning, the medication’s potency elicited a clenched-
teeth response of agony from Marcus.
Harlan lingered steadfastly, a guardian against the specter of Marcus fainting.
