Chapter 687
Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
She had access to the finest cuisine in the world and the money to buy everything she wanted.
âLetâs eat,â Leon said once the dishes were served.
He placed a piece of meat on Fionaâs plate. The woman returned to being reserved and ate very
gingerly, taking only a few bites at a time.
While she was eating, Fionaâs mind wandered back to the issue at hand. Since Millie was adamant
about staying in the neighborhood, Fiona would have to devise a plan to move out.
She still remembered how Millie asked her why she had gotten plastic surgery to look like she did as a
child.
Millie was getting dangerously close to uncovering the truth. Worse, the girl Leon liked turned out to be
her. No wonder Lois never succeeded in winning his heart, despite trying to do so for years.
Fiona had no idea what happened or why Leon did not recognize Millie.
However, it would not change the fact that the other womanâs very existence caused her a great deal of
anxiety. She would be doomed if Leon found out that Millie was the person he had been looking for.
âWe really bought a lot of things today. I wish I had a bigger house. Iâm running out of space to store
these things,â Fiona said, trying to sound casual. She then patiently waited for Leonâs response.
After taking a sip of cold water, Leon replied, âYou should get rid of your old stuff.
Just organize everything, and then Iâll send people over to dispose of them.â
Fiona was disappointed. What she really wanted was for him to offer to buy her a larger house.
She did not want to give up.
So, she suggested, âYou live alone, right? Why donât! just move in with you so that I can take care of
you? I can cook. Iâll make you delicious food every day.â
Leon gave it some serious consideration this time, but in the end, he still refused.
âJulius is taking good care of me and the Sirius Villa. You donât have to worry about that.â
It was undeniable that he cared a lot about Fiona, but he was not quite ready yet to take the next step
and live with her.
After spending so much time alone, he had grown accustomed to the peace and quiet. Having Fiona
move in would throw off that lifestyle.
He knew that Fiona had been considering leaving the neighborhood in favor of a larger home, but for
some reason, Leon wanted her to stay there.
Fiona tightened her grip on the fork and pursed her lips. Why did Leon not want her to live with him?
He would not even let her leave the neighborhood.
It was then that an awful thought popped into her head.
Was it because Leon wanted to see Millie more frequently?
