Chapter 588
Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter: 588
Did they really think Marcus would give them that much money to save her? After what happened with
Celeste, Millie was sure that he would not care even if his wife died.
No wonder the kidnappers wanted her to switch places with Lois. They apparently placed a higher
value on Millieâs identity than the other woman.
âYouâre wrong. He doesnât love me, and the Thomases have already driven me out of the family. Now,
let me go. Marcus wonât give you a dime. Youâre just wasting your time.â
At the thought of losing the chance to obtain a large sum of money, the kidnappersâ expressions
changed considerably. âYou were kicked out of the Thomas family?â
A mocking grin spread across Millieâs face.
âThatâs right.â
âThat canât be true. Sheâs lying to us. Find Marcusâ number and call him!â
Marcus and his friends hopped from one hangout spot to the next. They drove their flashy sports cars
to the peak of the mountain for a race.
Next, they went to a karaoke bar and ordered some drinks.
Everyone there noticed something was off about Marcus. He had never been this eager to hang out
with people before.
When he was in the race earlier, he was going so fast that it seemed as if he were trying to reach hell.
When they got to the bar, he went off by himself to smoke and drink. Thankfully, he had a high alcohol
tolerance, or else he would have been drunk by now with how much he had consumed.
By the time he finished a second box of cigarettes, the whole private room was engulfed with smoke,
and everyone in it was coughing every now and then.
When a man mentioned Millieâs name, Marcus grabbed a wine bottle and flung it at him. He cried out in
pain when it hit him square in the head.
Shocked, everyone exchanges glances. They finally knew the cause of Marcusâ unusual behavior. It
was because he was fighting with his wife. He probably went out to cool off.
No one dared to utter Millieâs name again after that.
Once they got tired of singing, the group of people went to the casino next.
In the hallway, Marcus took a call from a business partner. Derek waited for the call to finish before
double-checking Marcusâ schedule for tomorrow and asking, âMr. Thomas, are you still going to meet
Leon tomorrow?â
He was not sure if Marcus would want to meet Leon to talk about Millieâs grandmotherâs operation,
given how tense Marcusâ relationship with Millie was right now.
It took a while, but Marcus eventually gave a nod.
âFollow through the original plan.â
When Brock drugged him last time, Millie put his clothes on without hesitation to distract the people
who were chasing him. Marcus was just returning the favor.
