Chapter: 6
“This is a disaster. Did we do something extremely evil in our past lives to attract such a hideous woman to torment us? Oh, | don’t think | can handle this. | feel like I’m going to have a heart attack from all this anger.”
Once Millie was back inside the bedroom, she raised a hand to take her mask off, only to stop when she realized that the servant who brought her food was still there, eyes wide with curiosity.
“You can leave now. I'll call you once I’m done eating,” Millie said. “Oh, yes, madam.” With that, the servant left. Once she was alone, Millie finally removed her mask.
However, unlike what others claimed, her face was completely scar-free. If anything, she was remarkably beautiful. Her complexion was immaculate, her eyes were bright, her nose was perfectly shaped, and her lips were irresistibly full and plump.
When Millie was just twelve years old, her biological mother passed away from a terminal illness. Shortly after her mother’s death, her father married Gianna publicly. She brought with her Mia, Millie’s older sister by a year.
Gianna and Mia had always seen Millie as a thorn in their side. There was one time when Millie was stopped by a group of street thugs, whom Mia hired, on her way home from school. They waved knives at her and threatened to cut her face.
At that time, her face could have been badly damaged if a random stranger had not intervened to save her.
Millie also managed to bribe the street thugs to trick Mia and Gianna into thinking that her face had been severely scarred. Since then, she had been hiding her face.
Back to the present, Millie enthusiastically stuffed a slice of braised pork into her mouth, moaning when the savoury flavour assaulted her tongue.
Thirty minutes later, the servant, who had predicted that Millie would be done eating by now, knocked on the door and announced that she would be coming in to get the dishes.
At the moment, Millie had just finished her meal and was now in the bathroom washing her face because wearing the mask all day had left her face feeling suffocated. The servant waited for a response but got none, so she opened the door and went inside.
The servant presumed Marcus would be on his way to the second floor any time soon. He disliked messiness the most, and when he entered the untidy room, he would immediately reprimand the servants.
Millie had just finished washing her face and was looking for her mask when the servant let out a surprised cry.
“Madam... your face...”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
The servant’s jaws hung open in shock. She thought that Millie was a monstrously ugly woman. However, the woman in front of her had strikingly beautiful features.
Was she really Millie?
At first, the servant thought she was seeing things. She and her fellow servants gathered earlier to look at Millie’s photo, and the woman in it had a severely scarred face.
Marcus's face was clouded with wrath as he burst through the door. “What the heck is that noise?” “sir, her face...”
Millie’s heartbeat sped up as she panicked at the thought of her deception being discovered.
