Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee

Shera courteously declined Lily's offer and returned her focus to her porridge.
Despite her outward calm, she couldn't help but steal occasional glances at
Marcus.
Lily followed her gaze, sensing that Shera’s “work” excuse might not be the full
story. There was someone she held in her affection.
At a separate table, Trenton sat across from Marcus, having completed the
inspection of Marcus's car.
Trenton’s tone was grave as he revealed, “There was a bomb planted beneath
your car, but I managed to defuse it. These individuals are exceptionally
ruthless.”
Once the ignition was turned, the outcome would have been catastrophic.
Marcus's suspicions were confirmed. It was indeed a bomb.
Trenton scanned the restaurant discreetly, assessing the patrons to identify any
potential threats.

“Mr. Thomas, there's something else that struck me as unusual.”
“Go on.” Marcus urged Trenton to speak.
“In the parking lot, I observed a vehicle with a black License plate but no
number.”
Upon hearing his words, Marcus's brow knitted in deep contemplation.
In Preagend, the sight of a vehicle with a black License plate was an exceedingly
rare occurrence. Only Victor's car bore that unique distinction, signifying his
majestic and noble status.
“Could that car belong to the man who intruded into your room yesterday?”
Trenton inquired.
Marcus promptly shook his head.
“No, it's not his.”
Marcus, with a keen eye, could discern whether the guy from last night was from
Raven Island based on their interactions.
When Marcus had departed Raven Island, Victor had granted him a five-year
respite to stay in Preagend. Once that term lapsed, he was mandated to return to
assume control of the island.
Over the past few years, Marcus maintained no contact with the people on the
island, signaling his intention not to return. However, Victor showed no indication
of relenting.
