Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter 1089

As an attempt to retrieve Millie ensued, Leon cast his gaze in their direction, forestalling any suchendeavor.

Marcus carried Millie to the awaiting car and departed.

Only when the car’s taillights faded did Leon retract his piercing stare.

He’d encountered her first, yet fate hadn’t granted him the chance to hold onto her.

Yet perhaps it was for the best. Millie deserved a life bathed in sunlight-a destiny he couldn’t weave forher.

“Why did you surrender her?”

The man who had just harmed the fat woman stepped forward, his reluctance evident.

In response to Leon’s silence, he spoke in a hushed tone.

“I can tell you’re smitten with her.”

Never before had he witnessed Leon so unsettled by a woman. If he harbored affections, then it washis responsibility to ensure she remained.

Leon cast an indifferent glance his way, pivoted, and strode into the operating room. Nolan promptlyknelt, his face nearly grazing the floor.

Never had he anticipated the formidable background of this woman.

“Franco, my apologies. I was unaware she was yours. Please grant me another chance.”

Nolan’s chin was lifted, revealing daunting eyes that infused him with dread.

Angela’s Library

“Franco.”

Leon’s eyes met his.

The man beside him comprehended Leon’s intent, grabbing a bottle of disinfectant from the shelf andstriking Nolan’s forehead with it.

Leon then gripped his chin.

“How was she brought here?”

Nolan’s teeth chattered.

“A woman contacted me. She’s the one who incapacitated her. She even compensated me generously,asking me to end her life.”

Leon’s fierce demeanor quickened Nolan’s heartbeat.

“Now, you have a chance to make amends. Retrieve that woman for me.”

Nolan promptly nodded.
