Chapter 629
Substitute Marriage: Falling For My Ugly Wife
The girl that Leon was looking for was Millie.
âYou donât understand. If Leon doesnât get married as soon as possible and falls in love with another
woman before he finds that girl, the Thomas family will be doomed to get destroyed.â
At first, Claudia had been curious about the girlâs identity. She wanted to know why her grandson could
not put her out of his mind.
So, she dispatched a team to look for her. A few days ago, they got some clues that Millie might be the
girl they were looking for. When Claudia heard this, she immediately became concerned.
It was such a shocking coincidence. It turned out that the girl was connected to both of her
grandchildren.
After the initial shock wore off, she realized it made sense.
There were not many women who were as lovely as Millie. At the birthday party, Claudia took an
instant shine to her, not only because she was beautiful but also because she was kind.
âWhy is that?â
Claudia sighed at Freyjaâs confused expression before shaking her head. âIâm tired.
Help me get to my room so that I can take a nap.â
She had already asked someone to destroy the evidence linking Millie to the girl.
She really hoped that Leon would never find out the truth.
Rhea showed up at Millieâs place not long after Marcus had departed. Despite her sprained ankle, she
came venomously knocking on Millieâs door.
This rage was too much for her to bear. Millie quickly saw through her ploy, and the pain she went
through was for naught.
Rhea banged on the door loudly as if she wanted to break it.
Millie thought Marcus had come back, so she opened the door without hesitation.
Instead of the manâs handsome face, however, she was greeted by Rheaâs scowling one.
â(âm going to kill you, Millie!â
When Rhea raised his hand to slap Millie, the latter deftly grabbed her wrist.
There was a lot of pent-up rage in Rhea. Despite her best efforts, her plot to smear Millieâs name failed
miserably. In fact, Marcusâ concern for the woman only grew stronger as she continued to survive every
attempt at her life.
Rhea felt like a failure right now.
Millie let Rheaâs wrist go and crossed her arms over her chest. âYou came here after you saw Marcus
leave this place, didnât you? I thought you couldnât walk, but you look fine to me. If youâre really in pain,
how did you get here?â
