Chapter 674
Substitute Marriage: Falling For My Ugly Wife
Millie halted and tumed to confront the two figures with their garish, dyed hair.
âWhat do you want from me?â she sneered.
One of the men, adomed in a conspicuously bright floral shirt, smirked as he answered, âYouâre quite
attractive. I think Iâd like to get to know you.â
Millieâs eyes narrowed. The pair were clearly no good; their ostentatious attire screamed trouble. And
they were brazen enough to accost her in broad daylight.
âIf you continue to follow me, I will call the police,â Millie warned them firmly.
âGo ahead and call them if you like. Weâve done nothing wrong. Canât we admire a beautiful woman
from a distance?â one of them retorted, reaching out to touch her chin, only to find her recoiling in
disgust.
âWho sent you? And how much were you paid?â Millie countered, certain that there was more to this
situation than random harassment.
Unsurprisingly, the two men exchanged a knowing glance as soon as Millie finished speaking, then
they divulged the motive behind their conduct.
âThereâs no reason to keep it from you. If you want us to stop following you and desire some peace,
simply move out of this neighborhood,â one of them said.
Upon hearing this, Millie instantly comprehended the person orchestrating the whole affairâFiona.
Fiona was the individual in this community who was most keen on avoiding Millie, fearing that she
would be exposed in front of Leon.
Without another word, Millie continued on her way, confident that in the full light of day, the pair
wouldnât dare harm her.
Reaching an intersection, Millie spotted a traffic police officer on duty, his stern face reflecting his
dedication to the law. She approached him, looking visibly shaken.
âOfficer,â she said, her voice quivering, âthose two men behind me have been following me.â She then
raised her hand to point at the duo.
The traffic officerâs eyes sharpened as he assessed the two suspicious-looking men.
âDonât worry, miss,â he assured her, before striding towards them.
Feeling the weight of guilt, the two men hastily retreated.
After expressing her gratitude to the traffic police officer, Millie continued on to the hospital.
Meanwhile, at Thomas Group headquarters, Marcus had just exited his car when Rhea hurried towards
him, saying, âMarcus.â
Adorned in a pink dress, Rhea looked both sweet and charming at a first glance.
However, Marcusâ brow furrowed, his expression revealing no pleasure at Rheaâs appearance.
âWhatâs the matter?â he inquired, his voice taking on a professional tone.
