Chapter 225
Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
She'd be better suited scrubbing toilets in my company.â
Bjornâs mutter left Millie at a loss for words. His continuous belittling did not escape Millieâs notice.
Millie found herself questioning her unusually pleasant mood today. She positioned herself to the side, allowing her eyes to roam
freely, completely disregarding the utterances of the inked man. She regarded him with scorn and dismissed him entirely.
âMr. Kelly, your sense of humor is as twisted as a labyrinth. No matter her shortcomings, she is human. Equating her to a pig is
unjust,â Leon interrupted abruptly.
Millieâs brows knitted together in confusion, unable to comprehend Leonâs intervention.
She had decided to weather the storm; why was Leon fanning the flames?
Bjorn, however, was unfazed by Leon's interjection, a smug grin stretching across his face. âIf sheâs not a pig, then what is she? |
reckon she falls short even in comparison to a pig.â
Bjornâs unchecked arrogance and escalating laughter spurred Millieâs temper, her delicate fingers curling into fists at her sides. It
was clear she was nearing her threshold.
Glancing at Millie, Bjorn let his arrogance surge forth.
âBy the way, what's your name? Your service leaves much to be desired. The manager will hear of this.â
Acomplaint? Millie felt a cold dread clutching at her. If Graceâs job were to be affected, she would throw caution to the wind and
face the consequences head-on.
She would later offer monetary compensation to the manager, hoping to save Graceâs employment. After all, who could resist the
allure of extra money?
âYour name?â Bjorn reiterated, his impatience tangible.
âRefer to me as âFatherâ,â Millie retorted, seizing the coffee cup before Bjorn and splashing its contents across his smug
countenance.
As droplets of water dripped down Bjomâs chin, his dumbstruck expression was a sight to behold.
But Millie wasnât finished.
âSo, you wish to lodge a complaint against me? Proceed. It wonât make me bat an eyelid.â
With a final pointed look at Bjorn, Millie strode towards the exit, a fierce determination in her step. Before crossing the threshold,
she turned back one final time.
âIf | were to be likened to a pig, then you, sir, would be a conceited piglet, sans a motherâs care.â
Good people often bear the brunt of mistreatment, Millie mused. The more she bore, the more she was bulldozed. Holding her
head high, she pushed the door open and exited, leaving behind the unbearable presence of Bjorn.
Derek sneaked a glance at Marcus, who wore a smug grin on his face, and a chuckle escaped his lips. Observing this spectacle,
he felt a surge of satisfaction.
âHasten and fetch that woman back here. Today, | will ensure her demise!â Bjorn booted his stunned lackey beside him, berating
loudly.
