waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Madeleine nodded . " So , what is this about ... ? " " No matter what , this whole thing started because of me . They misunderstood the situation between you and Edward and wanted to stand up for me , so ... " Just hearing Edward's name made the corners of Madeleine's mouth lift in a mocking smile . " I understand . " Madeleine nodded . " But it's not respectful . " She shrugged . " This kind of drama , ganging up on another woman over a man , always seems to happen . " Fiona was silent for several seconds , not knowing what to say , just feeling stiff and uncomfortable .

After all , wasn't she here to see Madeleine for the same reason -a man ? She gathered her thoughts and suddenly asked , " There's something I've always been curious about . That day at the Chapter 168 restaurant , you denied ever liking Edward ... but you and I both know that some things are facts . " With no one else around , Madeleine didn't bother to hide it . " Everyone's been blind at some point . " " Then why did you change ? " " My eyes got better . " Fiona was at a loss for words again . She couldn't help but feel that Madeleine was calling her blind ...

" Can you tell me what happened between you two ? It's like you saw right through Edward and were desperate to pull yourself out of that relationship , to cut all ties . " It was obvious this was the question Fiona had come to ask today . She was already trying hard to choose her words carefully , to soften her tone . Madeleine stared at her for a moment , unconsciously rubbing the ring on her ring finger . Chapter 168 " Miss Bell , you're mistaken . I'm not trying to pull away from that relationship . I'm just getting back on the right track .

My life , my feelings - they were always supposed to be for my family and the one I love , weren't they ? " Madeleine felt helpless too . What could she do ? She couldn't just tell Fiona that she was actually being controlled by the narrative control , could she ? What if something happened to her after she broke free from the narrative control and she blamed it on me ? Everyone has their own fate . Fiona's situation was already much better than hers had been back then . " You were so in love with him back then , willing to give him everything . Why did you change ?

" Madeleine spread her hands with a helpless look on her face . " Respect personal choice . " Just as she finished speaking , a message came from security , saying Edward was at the gate . Chapter 168 Madeleine subconsciously glanced at Fiona , her expression. darkening slightly . Fiona quickly said , " I don't know why he's here . " The security guard sounded troubled . " Chase , ' should we let him in? " Madeleine glanced at Fiona again , her eyes perfectly calm . " Let him in . " She was also quite curious why Edward would come here , how he even had the nerve to show up .

A moment later , Edward strode in , his suit jacket draped over his arm , his tie slightly loosened . The moment his eyes landed on Fiona , a shadow of gloom passed through them . He shifted his gaze to Madeleine , a mocking smile flashing across his lips . " Madeleine , I'm finding it harder and harder to figure you out . " Madeleine couldn't help but roll her eyes . Chapter 168 " If you have nothing better to do, go be a delivery driver , okay ? Why are you standing here touching me ? " She had just finished speaking when Kevin's horrified voice rang out from the side .

" Mommy , why is he touching you ! " The little guy had been practicing the piano , but stopped when he heard a guest arrive and was about to go read a book . But then he realized it was that bad man who had come . And he was touching Mommy " Kev , what are you doing here? " Madeleine walked over and crouched in front of Kevin , her gentle smile returning . " It's nothing , Kev . You must have misheard . " Kevin frowned tightly , not saying a word . He hadn't misheard . Mommy just said it , that this bad uncle touched her . Chapter 168 Thinking this , Kevin looked up .

Though his body was small , he was giving off a chilling aura . He stared right at Edward , making his face darken for a moment . He had seen this child before , but he hadn't noticed how much he looked like Roderick . And wasn't Madeleine's relationship with her son supposed to be bad ? Everything had changed ... What on earth happened during this time ! At that moment , Roderick's car drove through the villa's gate . A bouquet of pink lilies sat on the passenger seat , vibrant and in full bloom , wrapped in the Parisian paper that Madeleine loved most .

Today wasn't any special occasion; he just missed her on his way home from work , so he took a detour to buy some flowers . But his good mood vanished the moment he pulled up . There were two cars parked outside the villa . One of them was Chapter 168 Edward's .
