Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Chapter: 77
Claudia’s tone was condescending, and it was clear that she was dissatisfied
with Millie.
As the guests quieted down, the two well-dressed women beside Claudia
smirked with obvious schadenfreude.
The two women were Madison Thomas and Della Thomas, wives of Marcus's
two uncles. In the Thomas family, these two women had long been rivals, each
constantly competing with Celeste.
Upon seeing Millie, Celeste’s face darkened. Why was she still present?
Directing a reprimanding glare at her son, Celeste realized she would have to
resolve this awkward situation herself. She approached Claudia, a bright smile
on her face.
“Mother, you've been conversing for a while. Here, have some tea to soothe your
throat.”
Claudia dismissed the teacup, but her stern expression quickly softened, her
gaze settling kindly on Millie.
“There’s no need, my dear. Don't be anxious, Millie. I may be old, but I don't
judge people solely on their looks. Your eyes are beautiful; I quite like them.”
Millie felt somewhat uncomfortable, but managed to thank her. surprised by this
abrupt shift in demeanor, she couldn't help but feel that Claudia’s strict
expression earlier suggested disdain.
However, it seemed now that the difficult times were over, and she was in
Claudia’s good graces. It was a situation with only upsides for her.
Claudia gestured to the people around her, introducing them to Millie warmly.

second uncle's son... Oh, and this is Leon's fiancée, Lois. Grandma is quite fond
of Lois. I imagine it won't be long before she becomes your cousin-in-law.”
Millie nodded and proceeded to politely greet everyone by name.
However, after this round of introductions, apart from Bruce and Lois Rayne who
offered friendly smiles, the others merely responded with an indifferent “hm.”
It was evident that no one held much regard for Marcus's ugly-looking wife.
So, his name was Leon. Millie repressed her excitement as she subtly observed
him.

individual. His high-bridged nose and
eyes, filled with an intense
undercurrent, gave him a captivating
aura. His expression was stoic and

Millie suddenly remembered that she hadn't given her gift yet. She promptly
presented the box of cookies in her hand.
“Grandma, happy birthday. This is my gift. It's from Woody's...”
“Huh, you must be joking! It's mom's birthday, and someone has the audacity to
bring cheap biscuits.”
