Chapter 1112
Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Millieâs lips tightened into a firm line, an eerie sensation creeping over her as she detected the unusual
quality of Rheaâs laughter.
Could it be possible?
âWhat are you insinuating? Is she still alive?â Millie inquired.
âYou guess,â Rhea teased, her lips curving into a cryptic smile.
Millieâs eyes narrowed in thought.
The taunting continued as Rhea pressed on, âLetâs assume, for a moment, that she were still alive.
How do you believe Marcus would react? Would he simply abandon you or cast you aside?â
Millieâs brow creased even further as she grappled with the implications of Rheaâs questions.

âFrightened, are you?â Rhea chuckled.
âHaha, watching you rattled like this, itâs truly satisfying.â
In this face-to-face exchange, Rhea seemed to have claimed the upper hand. Millie stood motionless,
feeling the gentle caress of the wind, her heart now agitated. Could someone truly return from the
dead?
Hadnât everyone confirmed that Shera was gone forever?
Or was this merely a game Rhea was playing, attempting to unsettle her?
With an effort, Millie regained her composure and responded calmly, âYou talk as though there was
some profound connection between them.
From what Iâve gathered, their relationship was merely that of casual friends.â
Though uncertain of the full truth, Millie wanted to draw out Rheaâs perspective on the matter.
Rheaâs lips curled with disdain as she retorted, âDid no one inform you that after my sisterâs accident,
Marcus was unable to eat for over ten days, confining himself to his room? True, their interactions may
have appeared mundane, but it could be that in losing her, Marcus discovered her true significance.â
Millieâs hand instinctively tightened around the key she held, but she maintained her poise.
âMiss Evans, youâre actually envious of your sister, arenât you?â
Millie challenged, her voice steady. Rheaâs actions had long suggested an unspoken affection for
Marcus.
âYouâ¦â
Rhea observed that Millieâs responses were always unpredictable, never conforming to what she
anticipated.
At that moment, Darinâs bodyguard appeared, interrupting their tense exchange.
âMiss Evans, the wind is picking up. Mr. Barker says itâs time to return.â
Once Rhea had departed, Millie cast her eyes downward.
