Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Panicking, the driver turned around and asked in tremor, “Mr. Morgan, what should we do?”

Ryan, his face a mask of cold determination, ordered, “Turn off the engine.”

The man with the gun bent down, revealing his sharp features, but his expression remained icy. It was none other than Harlan. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Millie was ecstatic to see that she had been rescued.

“Harlan!”

He lightly tapped on the car window, signaling to Ryan that he should release Millie without delay.

A cold smirk played on Harlan’s lips. Without a doubt, the sharpshooter had Ryan’s life in his crosshairs.

Ryan’s face was frigid, and his dark eyes reflected a chilling determination.

“Open the door.”

As the door was unlocked, Millie promptly made her exit and rushed to Harlan’s side.

“Why are you here? Thank you for saving me!”

Harlan had come to her rescue on multiple occasions, and Millie was deeply grateful for his interventions.

He holstered his weapon and the two men locked eyes, both seemingly holding their breaths.

As the driver sped away, Ryan’s menacing presence dissipated.

“I came here to find Marcus, and I saw you being forcibly taken. Do you have any idea why he tried to abduct you?”

The recent ordeal had been dangerously close to a kidnapping, and Millie couldn’t have stood up to Ryan on her own.

If he had done something to her, Marcus would undoubtedly seek revenge.

In the face of Harlan’s pressing question, Millie shook her head, her thoughts tangled.

“I don’t know, Harlan. Maybe he wants to capture me to use as leverage against Marcus, or he might have some other hidden agenda.”

She had no inkling that Ryan believed she was pregnant and intended to force her to abort the child.

Harlan felt a sense of frustration at Millie’s vague response.

As the pieces of food strewn about the floor were hastily collected and discarded, Millie retrieved the pregnancy test stick. It had miraculously survived the chaos unscathed.

She wiped the dust from the test stick and tucked it into her pocket.

Turning to face Harlan, she grinned mischievously.
