Substitute Marriage: Falling For My Ugly Wife
Millie gazed at the doctor and replied, âHold on a moment. Iâll get a pen and paper to note it all down.â
She approached the drawer, fetched a notebook, and tore a sheet of paper out of it, all the while
shooting a disapproving look at the man lying in the bed.
If it werenât for his patient status, she wouldnât be at his beck and call.
âDoctor, you can go ahead now. My wife has the pen,â Marcus remarked with a silent smile.
Millie fixed a withering glare on him, rolling her eyes in mild irritation.
The doctor nodded.
âAlright, Mrs. Thomas. Mr. Thomasâs wound should be kept dry, and he should refrain from engaging in
strenuous elbow-related activities to prevent reopening the wound. Also, about his diet, stick to lighter
meals and incorporate high-protein foods. In addition, ensure he gets plenty of rest. If he experiences
any discomfort, do not hesitate to inform us immediately.â
Millie nodded and diligently transcribed the doctorâs instructions onto the paper.
As she focused on her note-taking, Millie sensed the gaze of the other doctors in the room. Obviously,
they were impressed by what happened to her during the ward inspection.
The unwanted attention made her noticeably uneasy.
As the doctor who gave instructions closed his file, he said, âThatâs all. We should return to our meeting
now.â
When the doctors left, leaving the room empty for them, Marcus extended his hand toward Millie.
âWhat?â

She narrowed her eyes and glared at him.
âWhy did you ask me out and purposefully embarrass me?â
Marcus closed his fingers gently as a small smile graced his lips.
âCheck your notes to make sure you didnât miss anything.â
What nonsense he was talking! Millie gnashed her teeth in anger and impulsively hurled the notebook
at him. She crossed her arms in front of her chest. How could she leave out something in such a short
list of instructions?
The notebook landed on the quilt. Marcus arched an eyebrow, realizing that she was quite short-
tempered.
Picking up the notebook, Marcus couldnât help but admire the neatness of Millieâs handwriting. Every
detail of the doctorâs instructions had been meticulously written down, word by word. To him, reading
her writing was a pleasure.
