Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter: 665
Amidst the ensuing confusion, doubt began to sprout within Millieâa suspicion that Marcus harbored hidden truths. Since the preceding night, his calls for her aid with dressing and undressing have ceased, invoking puzzlement.
In a hushed corner of a tranquil coffee haven, Leon and Lois sat across from one another, their connection woven in a delicate tapestry of unspoken sentiments. Lois graced the moment with a smile. âThe bustling company milieu has claimed my time, leaving scant moments for our rendezvous. Your desire to meet heartens me.â
Note: Your Little Support will be very supportive to us
Even when conjectures swirled within her, Lois adorned herself with an air of ignorance, resolute in her conviction that Fionaâs impersonation would yield repulsion upon unveiling her own worth.
Leonâs voice resonated, âLet our engagement dissolve; your stature merits naught but the exceptional.â
Shock and anguish momentarily painted Loisâ features, a canvas of emotion laid bare. âWhat prompts this? I harbor affection for no soul but you. Within my gaze, you stand as the embodiment of excellence.â
With unwavering candor, Leon declared, âLove demands mutual consent.
Regretfully, Iâve never held affection for you. Spare your time, for it is futile to invest in me.â
Though Lois had steeled herself for this eventuality, the utterance of Leonâs lack of affection still drained her complexion of its warmth.
Summoning inner resolve, she inhaled deeply, mustering a fragile smile.
âI perceive. Undoubtedly, my proximity has woven an intricate thread between us.
Understanding a manâs desire for space, | embark upon an overseas sojoum, allowing your heart the solitude it craves. As for the dissolution of our engagement, let us revisit this discourse upon my return.â
With those parting words, Lois gathered her belongings, her exit swift and determined.
Amidst the echoes of her departure, Leon felt an unexpected restlessness stir within him.
As if on cue, his phone chimed, the digital rhythm of Madisonâs call punctuating the air.
âLeon, is the engagement with Lois truly to be severed? You canât possibly entertain such a notion. I wonât allow it.â Madisonâs voice held an edge of anxiety.
âThe decision stands firm; the engagement shall be dissolved. My sentiments towards her have always remained void.â Leonâs tone carried an icy detachment.
Flaring with frustration, Madisonâs anger surged forth. âAre you trying to vex me?
No, this cannot be agreed upon. Youâre being quite naive. Think of it: a union with Lois ensures the entirety of the Rayne familyâs wealth cascading into your possession. What a splendid alliance it would be!â
âSo, itâs merely the Rayne familyâs wealth that concerns you.â
Leonâs retort illuminated Madisonâs focus, though she offered no denial.
Nevertheless, she was resolute in her refusal to accept the termination of the engagement.
âDo not presume that I am ignorant of your intention to forsake Lois in favor of your prior paramour. What is in her that holds such an indelible place in your memory?
