Chapter 903
Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Rhea went to Darinâs ward, but upon seeing Marcus, she quickly stepped back and hid.
âIf you truly despise her, donât cancel the engagement,â Marcus declared before striding out of the
ward.
Darinâs brow furrowed. What did Marcus mean? He harbored such hatred for Rhea, so why couldnât he
cancel the engagement? But after pondering for a moment, he understood.
Once she was certain Marcus had entered the elevator, Rhea emerged from her hiding place.
What was Marcusâ purpose in seeing Darin?

There hadnât seemed to be a significant fight between them. Why hadnât Marcus killed Darin in a fit of
rage?
With a feeling of unease, Rhea entered the ward.
At that moment, Darin was leaning against the headboard, his eyes closed in fatigue.
âDarin.â Rhea approached the bedside.
He opened his eyes and stared at Rhea for a few seconds before he spoke.
âMy mom said you wouldnât be back here. Why have you returned?â
Darinâs tone was weak and cold.
âYesterday, I spoke in anger. Your mother was quite displeased with me, and in my fury, I said those
words,â Rhea explained.
âReally?â
Darinâs eyes narrowed, unable to match the person before him with the innocent girl he once knew.
What had turned her so deceitful?
Though Darinâs gaze appeared weak, Rhea felt a pang of guilt as she caught his gaze.
âOf course. Donât overthink it. Iâve had time to reflect, and I came to see you again right away.â
Rhea sensed something was off about the situation, but she was relieved when Darin managed to
smile and took her hand.
âThatâs wonderful. Iâm glad youâve thought it over, Rhea. Our wedding date is approaching. When will
you choose a wedding dress?â
Rheaâs eyes widened in shock.
What did he mean? Hadnât his mother told him about the canceled engagement?
âYou seem distressed. Are you all right?â Darin asked.
âDidnât your mother tell you that I want to cancel the engagement?
Youâll be in a wheelchair from now on. I canât marry you. We need to call off the engagement,â Rhea
said, pulling her hand away and stepping back.
