Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter 626

It was funny because Rhea was always in high heels like this one. She could walk very fast in themand even run with them without any hassle.

If she intentionally hurt herself, then she was really being hard on herself.

Marcus frowned. He wasn’t happy with the situation. He looked up and met Millie’s gaze.

Seeing the hesitation on his face, Millie snorted. How could he be so blind as to fall for such an obvioustrick? Perhaps Marcus was an intelligent man, but that was only in business. He was clueless witheverything else. How was it that an intelligent man couldn’t see through this little trick?

“Take her to the hospital then. I’ll head back home. My neighbour has to give me some gifts,” Millie saidcasually.

However, Marcus’ eyes darkened.

“Neighbour? What neighbour?”

“The one who wanted to take me to the hospital this morning,” Millie answered with a shrug and slippedout of the restaurant.

Marcus looked at the door in panic. Then, he took out his phone and dialled a number, saying to Rhea,“Just sit and wait. I’ll ask Derek to come and get you.”

“Marcus!” Rhea called out in panic.

However, Marcus couldn’t hear her anymore. He was thinking about Millie.

Didn’t she know that her neighbour liked her? How naive could she be to accept his gifts?

As the elevator doors were closing, Millie caught sight of Marcus rushing towards her. A cunning smileappeared on her face as the door closed in his face.

At home, Millie was taking out some fruits from the fridge when Marcus barged in.

He looked at Millie, then at the empty room. Earlier, when Millie walked out of the mall, she quicklyhailed a taxi and ran off before Marcus caught up to her.

Ignoring his curious eyes, she sat down on the sofa with her fruits in hand. Marcus straightened hisshoulders and elegantly sat down on the sofa next to her. He was going to wait right there and see justhow bold this neighbour was. Would the man dare to come here when her husband was around?

It seemed that the warning he gave the man in the morning wasn’t enough. Perhaps he just wanted todie.

After about one or two hours, Millie had finished reading a jewelry design book without any interruption.There was no knock at the door, and certainly no gifts.

Marcus frowned, finally feeling like something was off. He tried recalling exactly what Millie said on thephone earlier.

“Okay, thank you, Teresa.” Those were her words.

That meant the call wasn’t from her neighbour like she had led him to believe.

Marcus stood up and seized the magazine from Millie’s hand, throwing it down on the sofa.
