Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter 580

With delicate steps, Rhea pushed the door ajar, greeting, “Marcus.”

As she stepped inside, a shiver coursed through Rhea. Despite the air conditioner being off, a chillpermeated the room.

Today, Marcus wore a black shirt and trousers, an ensemble that accentuated his inherent coolness.

Aware of Marcus’ probable ire toward Millie, Rhea’s heart quickened. Evidently,

Millie held a place of significance in Marcus’ heart. However, Rhea staged a compelling performance toshatter that perception.

With a measured turn, Marcus faced Rhea’s presence. She, who had once drugged him, now dared toapproach him.

“Marcus, this is my confession—ten thousand words expressing my regret. I acknowledge mywrongdoing. My feelings for you were improper; you have always been a respected senior to me. I’mcommitted to being better from now on. I implore your forgiveness.”

Observing Marcus’ impassivity, Rhea clenched her fists and persisted.

“I truly apologize. I erred. These days, introspection has consumed me. | intend to foster a healthyrelationship with any young man your mother introduced to me.

My unseemly desires will be no more. Please grant me an opportunity to amend my ways.”

Accepting the envelope, Marcus perused its contents. The words resounded with sincerity.

Undeterred, Rhea continued, “May I have another chance? The consequences of my foolishness haveled to my father’s daily reprimands. I’m teetering on the edge of despondency. I pledge to not repeat

my mistakes.”

Folding the letter, Marcus glanced at the perturbed Rhea.

“Refrain from such actions again. However, should it recur, the consequences will extend beyond yourfather’s dismissal. Both of you will face termination.”

Despite his stern tone, Marcus’ willingness to extend a lifeline was apparent.

“You can trust that it won’t recur. Can you also assist in restoring my father’s position? He has servedyour family diligently and faithfully. My actions embroiled him in this predicament. I implore you to granthim a chance.”

Bolton’s recent tirades had taken their toll on Rhea. She was aware of her father’s precarious positionas the target of many ambitions. Her father feared losing his standing.

A subtle nod from Marcus conveyed his acquiescence.

“Thank you. You’re truly a remarkable man.” Rhea’s lips curled in a flattering smile.

Gazing at Rhea’s smile, Marcus drifted momentarily. Millie’s countenance, forever marked byinnocence and radiance, had never suggested such treacherous intent.

“Leave now. I have matters to attend to.” He dismissed her dispassionately.

“Understood.” Rhea departed, reluctant. Had Marcus not noticed her recent enhancement—a breastaugmentation?
