waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

After waiting for a full two minutes , Rebecca started to think he was writing a whole essay . But all he sent was a short sentence . Professor Shaw : You have other friends named Shaw ? Before Rebecca could process what he meant by that , he unsent it , sent just an " Mm , " and ended the conversation . Rebecca was completely baffled , unable to figure out what on earth Adrian meant . She turned her head and saw Madeleine with a wicked smile .

Outside a national biological laboratory , Adrian held the protective suit he would change into in one hand and looked at his phone with a serious expression . His doctoral student looked over curiously . " What's wrong , Professor Shaw ? Did something happen ? " Chapter 141 Hearing this , Adrian finally turned off his phone . When he looked up , his stern gaze had softened back to its usual gentleness . He shook his head . " It's nothing . " Then he asked , " Who's taking the lab notes today ? " " Gabrielle , she's already inside getting ready . " " I thought it was Eleanor ?

" " Oh , Eleanor said she's having dinner with her family tonight , so she swapped shifts with Gabrielle . " Eleanor ... Adrian's gaze shifted slightly . He nodded , said he understood , and started to change into his protective suit . Dinner with her family . Why wear such a beautiful little black dress for that ? And sending the photo by mistake ... Something wasn't right . Chapter 141 and Rebecca couldn't figure out what Madeleine was up to , when she heard Madeleine tell her not to worry , that she was just one step away from victory , she furrowed her brow . " Victory ? Not even close .

" What's the use of just getting Adrian interested in me ? What she wanted was for Adrian to agree to join her family's company . Tsk , if that old fossil wasn't so rigid and unwilling to cooperate with the company , would I have to make such a huge sacrifice ? Meanwhile , Owen was still lecturing Bradley . Bradley , who was usually glib , could only pretend to be well - behaved in front of an elder . Whatever Owen said , he just chuckled , nodded , and then shot looks at Roderick , Madeleine , and Rebecca , one by one , hoping they would save him .

Unfortunately , all three of them were pretending not to see . Chapter 141 Not until Madeleine's stomach growled again . Did Roderick finally break the stalemate . " Dad , it's time to eat . " Owen was right in the middle of his speech and glanced at his son , displeased . " What's the rush ! " " It's not me who's in a rush , Madeleine is pregnant , she can't go hungry . " Only then did Owen snap out of it . He slapped his forehead and said to Diane in a gentle tone . " My fault , my fault . I got carried away talking . Here , let me get you a bowl of soup . " Big families have strict rules .

Even though this was just a casual family dinner , the younger generation still followed the principle of not eating until the elders started . Now that Owen had started , everyone breathed a sigh of relief . Roderick immediately picked up Madeleine's bowl to serve her . Chapter 141 Bradley and Rebecca shared the same look of disdain . The Livingston father and son had truly inherited the trait of doting on their wives . " Don't you have eyes , Bradley ? Get me a bowl . " Bradley rolled his eyes at Rebecca . " If you're so capable , find a husband to serve you .

Why are you ordering me around ? " Rebecca chuckled and slung an arm over Bradley's shoulder . " Sure , why don't we just make do with each other ? " " Get lost ! " Watching from the side , Madeleine couldn't help but laugh . They were true friends , the kind who couldn't stand to even look at each other . After dinner and hanging out for a while , everyone went their separate ways . Kevin was tired from playing and fell asleep in the car on the way back . Madeleine dozed off as well . In a daze , it seemed she was dreaming again .

Chapter 141 This time , her perspective shifted , and she saw herself in the dream . Was that ... herself , right after graduating from college ? Madeleine , fresh out of school , still had a scholarly air . She stood by the road , fiddling with the strap of her crossbody bag . Hearing Roderick call her from behind , she turned her head , annoyed . " What took you so long ! " Roderick was full of youthful energy , running towards her with a huge smile . " Work has been busy . I just took over the company , so I couldn't leave early ." " Oh ... then I forgive you .

" Madeleine pouted , grabbed Roderick's arm , and suddenly started to hesitate . Roderick lowered his head and gave her a quick peck on the lips . " What's wrong , is my little princess angry ? " Chapter 141 Madeleine said in a low voice , " I heard you went to a party yesterday . A lot of heiresses were hitting on you , huh ? " Roderick froze for a second , then realized she was jealous .
