Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

“You’re doing splendidly, baby.”

Mylo found himself incredulous.

“Do the two of you even understand the concept of embarrassment? You’re giving me secondhand embarrassment.”

Unfazed, Marcus cast a sidelong glance at Mylo before adding, “If our presence becomes unbearable, you’re free to leave.”

Mylo, seeking to maintain a veneer of gentility, adjusted his coat’s hem to present himself as a composed gentleman.

“Oh, come on. If we leave, you’ll just embrace and kiss each other.

There is no way around it. We’re content to be the third wheel. You go ahead, but at least give us a show-throw in a kiss or something,” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Mylo quipped unabashedly.

Millie rolled her eyes playfully at Mylo’s straightforwardness.

“I happened to walk by the swing and noticed Miss Miller looking at her phone, seemingly engrossed in a photo. My hunch is that the man in the picture is Bruce. Miss Miller is quite striking, and her role as a nurse only adds to her allure. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if she became my cousin-in-law? What are your thoughts, darling?”

Mylo cast a skeptical glance at Judie and furrowed his brow.

“I need to use the restroom.”

Sensing Mylo’s exit, Delmor saw an opportunity not to be the odd one out.

“Actually, I spotted someone I know over there. I’m going to say hello.”

Millie shifted her attention to Marcus, her eyes gleaming.

“Sweetheart, I’ve got a suggestion.”

Marcus nodded, leading her towards the cerulean expanse of the swimming pool.

“Let’s hear it.”

“Can you possibly refrain from calling me ‘baby’ in public?”

The term endearment, when spoken openly, evoked a sense of embarrassment Millie found hard to endure.

“Is it that mortifying? It’s an expression of our strong connection and my deep affection for you.”

Millie halted, the soft mound of sand beneath their feet prompting her response.

“I know, but it’s also incredibly embarrassing. When you call me that, my heart races, and I get so flustered.”

Observing Millie’s genuine discomfort, Marcus found himself left with little choice but to acquiesce.
