waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Chapter 179 Madeleine's fingertips trembled ; beneath her palm were his firm muscles . The warmth made her heart race . She tried to pull her hand away , but he held it firmly in place . " Hey , you ... you go take a shower first . " She struggled weakly , and for some reason , her voice came out sounding like a playful whine . Roderick didn't let up , lowering his head and burying his face in Madeleine's neck . " I'm so tired , babe . " His breath was hot as he spoke , making the tips of Madeleine's ears burn .

She pushed him away , flustered and annoyed , " You were supposed to be cheering me up , but you're just being a perv . " She finished with a dissatisfied huff . Chapter 179 " You're stinky , and you're making me stinky too . " Roderick chuckled softly , his voice magnetic and seductive . The next second , the man who'd just been complaining he was tired swiftly bent down and threw Madeleine over his shoulder . " Ah ! " Madeleine cried out in surprise , quickly grabbing onto Roderick's head , afraid she would fall . " What do you think you're doing ? " " Weren't you saying I'm stinky ?

Let's go get clean together . " Roderick mimicked her tone , unable to hold back a laugh as he carried her straight to the bathroom . Damp , humid , panting ... Madeleine felt her mouth was full of the minty taste of toothpaste . She forgot how it started ; Madeleine only remembered Roderick leaning in after brushing his teeth . She was pressed against the tiled wall , her back slightly cool , Chapter 179 but in front of her was his scorching body heat . Mint and coolness spread between their lips , but it couldn't suppress the rising temperature in the bathroom .

Madeleine was kissed until she went weak , only able to cling to his shoulders to barely stay upright . Then , he held her , as if dancing a waltz , and with a twirl , they were under the showerhead . The shower turned on , and the warm stream of water instantly drenched them both . Madeleine's pajamas clung to her body , outlining her slender curves . Roderick's eyes darkened as he reached out to push aside her wet strands of hair . Later , did Madeleine remember mumbling a complaint that her legs were too weak to stand ?

By the time she came to her senses , she had already been carried into the bathtub . The warm water submerged their two bodies , with Madeleine practically pressed on top of Roderick . Chapter 179 The surface of the water swayed , stirring up layers of ripples . Roderick's arm was wrapped around her waist , his fingertips faintly caressing her through the wet fabric . " You still haven't told me what you're mad about . " Madeleine panted and turned her head away , " You actually remember that ." Who acts like that ?

Coming back and seeing I was sulking , his first reaction wasn't to ask why , but to actually ... Roderick chuckled lightly , his hand reaching up to pull at her pajamas . " Hey ... " Madeleine tried to stop him , but unfortunately , she failed . " You , don't you want to know why I'm angry ? " " It's not too late to find out later . " After saying that , Roderick's eyes darkened , and he cupped the back of her head , kissing her fiercely . His other hand skillfully removed the unnecessary clothes . Chapter 179 When they saw each other again , they were both completely bare .

Madeleine felt her face burning hot , not daring to look into Roderick's eyes at all . Fortunately , he didn't give Madeleine a chance to look , kissing her as if she would melt into the bathwater . " Maddie ... Maddie ... " In the moments he pulled away from her lips , Roderick murmured her name , full of cherish and affection . He didn't know what had gotten into him . Maybe it was the alcohol . Or maybe he'd been holding back for too long . Or perhaps , it was seeing her angry face when he got back and finding it cute . He was actually losing a bit of control at this moment . " Maddie ...

" " Hmm ? " Chapter 179 He called her several times before Madeleine had the time and energy to answer . He chuckled lightly , " Who am I ? " " Roderick ... " " Mm , and who am I to you ? " " Husband ... " The water in the tub seemed to be getting hotter , and the veins on Roderick's forehead were popping . He really couldn't hold back anymore , feeling like Madeleine was a poison , and he reached out to give her a gentle push . " Hmm ? " Madeleine , who had just been kissed senseless , was suddenly separated from that fiery body and looked at him , confused . " Hmm ?

" Roderick mimicked her tone from just now . The two of them were like they were in a chess game , holding their pieces , waiting for the other's next move . Chapter 179 Roderick's eyes held a smile , and though he was about to lose it from holding back , he still respected Madeleine's wishes at this moment . Thinking Madeleine would surely get scared and pull away , Roderick was already prepared to go take another cold shower .
