Chapter 1210
Substitute Marriage: Falling For My Ugly Wife
A mixture of astonishment and embarrassment colored Rheaâs features as she confronted the explicit
imagery contained in the video. Her gaze swiveled towards Shera, a question in her eyes-how had
Shera come to possess this footage? Had Gianni been complicit in this invasion of privacy?
A theory crystallized, had Shera and Gianni plotted against her?
Cornered by the leverage this video provided, Rheaâs compliance was reluctantly coerced, culminating
in her return alongside Shera.
Upon her arrival, however, an unsettling transformation unveiled itselfâa house populated by
unfamiliar faces, Sheraâs confidantes usurping the roles of the established servants. Rheaâs
possessions were confiscated, and she found herself incarcerated within a musty, damp warehouse.
On a sunny day, the symphony of the Lawrence and Fairclough families culminated in a grand union
within the expanse of a lavish estate.
Under the cascade of notes, the bride traversed the aisle, arm entwined with her fatherâs, a figure
resplendent in the light. The Sky Heart that adorned her neck gleamed with jincandescence, a
testament to her radiant charm.
Seated nearby, Millie and Mylo shared a quiet communion. Marcusâs tardy entrance, attributed to
business affairs, situated him within the rear rows.
Millieâs gaze remained steadfastly fixed on the couple gracing the stage, caught in the poignant
exchange of rings. Graceful and elegant, the bride exuded a timeless beauty, while the groom, adorned
with an air of wisdom, was the embodiment of handsomeness. Undoubtedly, they appeared to be an
impeccably suited couple.
Adjacent whispers caught her ear, a chorus of envy for the opulence of the ceremony.

âWhat an envy-inducing wedding! I wish for something similar, but my circumstances pale in
comparison.â
âExtravagance knows no bounds. Both families have lavished resources on this event. Beyond our
means, alas. At least we possess the solace of a wedding, a privilege denied to many.â
âIs marriage complete without such fanfare?â
âShh, lower your voices. Just ahead of us is Mrs. Thomas, Millie.
Her wedding was a quiet affair, with the Thomas family sending only a car for her. Itâs quite
unfortunate.â
âI couldnât agree more. Not having a proper wedding might end up being a major regret in her life.â
Mylo surreptitiously observed Millie while the conversation flowed, noticing her head drooping with
each passing comment. His patience waned, and his glare silenced the two gossips in an instant.
âSo much noiseâ¦â
The two had transgressed and were then silenced.
Mylo then shifted his attention to Millie, inquiring with genuine concern, âMrs. Thomas, are you all
right?â
Millieâs head shook slightly, accompanied by a brave smile.
âIâm well.
Look at the ring I designed for the bride. Doesnât it radiate beauty?â
Myloâs glance traced the curve of Millieâs bare ring finger, an inward sigh escaping. Millieâs
craftsmanship adorned anotherâs love story, while her own remained incomplete.
After the ceremonial exchange of vows, the celebration unfurled its wings, taking flight. An assortment
of delectable delights graced long tables, an array of sumptuous offerings laid out for the taking.
