Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter 645

Marcus contemplated driving, but considering his injury, Millie hastily unfastened her seatbelt andsuggested, “Your arm is injured. You shouldn’t drive. Let’s take a taxi.”

“No, I can still drive, even with the injury. I drove here earlier, remember?”

Seeing him struggle to grip the steering wheel, Millie refused, saying, “No, I can’t let you drive with aninjured arm. Let’s get out of the car and take a taxi.”

Millie was insistent, and Marcus yielded. He found it a pleasantly yielding concession. He realized thatshe was genuinely concerned for him.

“Alright, let’s take a taxi.”

They then hailed a taxi and headed to the old house.

Claudia had been missing Millie since the explosion incident.

She felt a sense of loneliness in the quiet old house and believed that only Millie’s presence could bringher happiness. That was why she eagerly anticipated Millie’s visits.

Millie felt honored by Claudia’s attention. As soon as she arrived, Claudia instructed the servants tobring out an array of candies.

“Millie, do you enjoy candies? If you do, I have plenty of them here.”

The variety of candies presented Millie with a delightful dilemma.

“Thank you, Grandma.”

It was hard to resist such kindness. Millie chose a shiny candy and started eating it.

Freyja chimed in, “These candies used to be Claudia’s favorites.”

Millie was slightly surprised to learn that Claudia had a fondness for candies. She pushed the candyplate toward the old woman. “Grandma, let’s share some.”

Claudia gazed at the candy plate with sparkling eyes, while Freyja watched her with concern.

“Madam, remember that your teeth might hurt. You had a candy last night, and it kept you awake dueto the discomfort.”

Disappointed, Claudia put the candy back down.

“[ shouldn’t have it. It’s not good for my teeth. Millie, you enjoy it

Upon hearing this, Millie promptly withdrew the plate. She didn’t want to make grandma suffer.

At that moment, a surprised voice came from the door. “Mr. Leon has returned.”

Leon entered the main hall with determined strides, his gaze sweeping over the occupants. There wasa glint of surprise in his dark eyes, indicating he hadn’t expected to replace both Millie and Marcus there.
