waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

To avoid giving herself away , Rebecca put on an adoring expression . " I just admire Professor Shaw so much . You're the youngest professor of life sciences , both here and internationally . I'm sure I could learn so much from you . " Adrian , who had been praised his entire life , suddenly felt his ears getting hot for some reason . He avoided Rebecca's gaze and picked up his glass to take a sip of water . " You flatter me . " After saying that , he asked , " By the way , I only know you as Rebecca . I don't actually know your name . " " Eleanor .

" Rebecca's lips curled into a smile , her face a picture of pure innocence . Just then , her phone vibrated twice . She glanced down , saw it was a message from Roderick , and after reading it , quickly placed her phone face down on the table . Chapter 117 Roderick : You don't have to go to all this trouble to get Adrian to join the Whitman group . Be careful you don't try to hook him and end up in the gutter yourself . Roderick and Madeleine got back a little after eleven . Kirsten was still awake . She heard the noise , came to open the door , and gasped when she saw them . " Sir ! You ...

what happened to you and Madeleine ? " Outside the door, Roderick had a messy bird's nest of hair and was carrying Madeleine in his arms . She was already asleep , nestled against him . Kirsten felt a bit awkward as she stole a few more glances at Roderick's hair . Is that ... the new trendy hairstyle ? " Kirsten , could you please make some Hangover - Relief Broth ? " " Oh , yes , of course . So Madeleine is drunk . I'll go make it right now . " After carrying Madeleine back to the room , Roderick helplessly Chapter 117 ruffled his own hair a couple of times .

An hour ago , the two of them were having a romantic , delicious candlelight dinner , enjoying the evening scenery on the cruise ship , whispering sweet , flirty things to each other . Everything was beautiful and peaceful . He never should have caved and let Madeleine drink ! Just over half a glass of red wine , and she started slurring her words , her eyes getting hazy . If Roderick hadn't stopped her with all his might , she would have already jumped into the sea to take a bath .

After he finally managed to stop her from jumping into the sea , Madeleine clung to Roderick like a koala , insisting she wanted to do clay sculpting . Sculpting what ? Roderick's hair . When Mathew came to pick them up , he was too stunned to speak . Madeleine was just hanging on Roderick , her hands vigorously messing up his hair . Chapter 117 And through it all , Roderick didn't show the slightest bit of anger , only helplessness and adoration in his eyes . Mathew had always thought of himself as a model husband , but compared to this , he still had a long way to go .

After Roderick brought Madeleine back to the room , he took off her makeup and wiped her face with a hot towel . It wasn't the first time he'd done this , so he was quite skilled at it . Kirsten finished making the Hangover - Relief Broth and brought it over , seeing that Madeleine had already changed into her pajamas and was sleeping soundly . " She's already asleep . Should I still wake her up ? " " Yes . If she doesn't drink some of the broth , she'll have a headache when she wakes up tomorrow . " After speaking , Roderick helped Madeleine sit up , letting her lean against him . " Maddie ?

Madeleine . " Chapter 117 Madeleine smacked her lips a couple of times and cracked her eyes open a sliver . " Is my clay sculpture fired yet ? " Roderick grimaced . If this " clay sculpture " was fired , he'd be bald . Though speechless , he still played along with her . " It's being fired now . " " Oh ... When it's done , I'm going to give it to you . I sculpted a little rabbit for you ." " A little rabbit ? Why ? " " Because I'm the one who killed that little rabbit you had as a kid , waah ...

" Madeleine suddenly burst out crying , startling Kirsten so much she almost spilled the Hangover - Relief Broth . Roderick could only soothe her with a few words , then took the bowl and fed her the broth spoonful by spoonful . After tasting it and deciding it was pretty good , Madeleine Chapter 117 decisively took the bowl and drank more than half of it . Then , she fell right back to sleep . Kirsten let out a sigh of relief . " Madeleine's tolerance for alcohol and her behavior when drunk ... really haven't improved at all .

" Roderick smiled and nodded , thinking to himself that he couldn't get soft and agree to let her drink anymore . It was one thing when he was with her , but what if no one was around and she started making a drunken scene on the street ? " How was Kevin today ? Did he misbehave ?
