Chapter 2
The servant was puzzled. The tears that were flowing down Millie's cheeks
earlier as Marcus nearly suffocated her were now gone, and she was acting as if
nothing had happened.
When she noticed that Millie was staring at her, she quickly snapped out of her
thoughts. Her head dipped as she stuttered, “Actually, madam, you're the only
one who hasn't eaten dinner yet; everyone else has already done so.”
For a brief second, Millie was speechless.
She guessed that it was probably because she was never really accepted by
anyone in the Thomas household. Celeste Thomas, Marcus's mother had a
reputation for being a stickler for the rules, but Millie was already being denied
food, even though she had just joined the family. This was obviously an effort to
assert authority and scare her, the new daughter-in-law.
“Just bring my food here, then,” Millie instructed.
The servant's expression became troubled.
“If they ask you why you got me food, just tell them that I haven't eaten in three
days and that if I don’t eat, I'll starve to death in their house. Also, tell them that I
already passed out from hunger earlier,” Millie suggested.
“Is that... really going to work?” the servant timidly asked.
Millie gave her a reassuring wink and said, “It will. Trust me.”
In the living room, Marcus sat on the extravagant leather sofa. He was holding a
glass, and his grip on it was so tight that it looked like he wanted to break it.
His assistant walked up to him, carrying a stack of documents. “Mr. Thomas, after
a thorough investigation, we can confirm that the woman you married wasn’t Mia
but Millie, who's known for her disfigured face. The Brown family had deceived
us.”
Marcus wrinkled his brow and released his grip on the glass, letting it fall to the
floor.
His assistant pulled out two photos and set them down in front of him.
There was a striking difference between the two photos. Mia had fine features,
and she looked ethereal. Millie, on the other hand, was scarred horribly on the
right side of her face. It looked like a centipede had crawled across her face.

Marcus let out an ominous chuckle. “How dare they trick me into marrying that
woman? Do they really think they can get away with it?”
Celeste, dressed to the nines and standing next to Marcus, grabbed the photos.
The more she looked at them, the more unsettled she felt.
