First off, Guy doesn't betray Mildred; Mildred betrays Guy (turns him over to the firemen). The reader never sees the interaction between Mildred and the firemen, only Guy's reaction to seeing Mildred (pg 114; or a couple paragraphs into part 3). Montag kills Beatty (pg 119; or about 7 paragraphs into the 2nd break into part 3).
because they found books in Montag's house.
Captain Beatty drove the Salamander to Montag's house in "Fahrenheit 451." Beatty was aware that Montag had secretly been collecting and hiding books, and he wanted to confront Montag about his subversive actions.
The final informant on Montag's home in "Fahrenheit 451" was Captain Beatty, his boss at the fire station. Beatty had grown suspicious of Montag's growing interest in books and ultimately turned him in for possessing illegal literature.
Montag is betrayed by his wife, Mildred, who reports him to the authorities for having books in their home. This leads to Montag's discovery, capture, and escape from the oppressive society he lives in.

The first is that the women that were over that night told the firemen that he had the books, and the second is that the mechanical hound found the books that Montag had hidden in his backyard for safe keeping. Mildred didn't tell anyone, but did leave when the fire truck came.
Guy Montag's Wife
He goes all weird whenever Beatty talks about books, and he cocks his head to listen to Faber, so Beatty wonders. Another thing is Montag reports in sick, and he says he might come to the late shift, which was weird for Montag. One of Mildred's friends reported on Montag, though!
