Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Millie, appreciating the old woman's warm-heartedness, agreed without
hesitation. The elderly lady’s kindness reminded her of her own grandmother and
Marcus's grandmother.
“I'll help you with the cooking.”
As Millie and the old woman chatted and cooked in the kitchen, they shared
stories. Millie learned that the old woman's son, aged 35, worked as a doctor in a
town 20 kilometers away. He only returned occasionally and mostly lived in the
town. Her husband had passed away.
She also had a loyal companion, a dog named Waldo.
“The fish is cooked!”
Millie opened the pot which released a mouthwatering aroma that filled the air.

However, the harmonious atmosphere inside the house was disrupted.
Ryan's men had arrived and encircled the building.
Marcus and Trenton, aware of the situation, returned to the room, their
expressions grave.
As Millie exited the kitchen to invite them for dinner, she noticed her companions
cautiously retreating into the room. The air grew tense.
Millie sensed that something was amiss. Glancing out the glass window, she
spotted figures in the yard, triggering a surge of anxiety.
Marcus signaled to her and whispered, “Take her to hide in the kitchen.”
“I will.” Millie composed herself and nodded.
As soon as she led the old woman back into the kitchen, bullets pierced through
the window into the hall. Marcus and Trenton took cover on both sides of the
window.
“It's dangerous. Stay down,” Millie urgently instructed the elderly woman, pulling
her to crouch by the kitchen door.
The woman was completely bewildered, inquiring, “What's happening?
What's the cause of these gunshots?”
“I can’t explain right now. I'm sorry to involve you in this. Please trust that we
mean no harm and will protect you,” Millie reassured her.
