waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Chapter 211 The air conditioning in the luxury store was blasting , and Madeleine unconsciously rubbed her arms as soon as she walked in . Rebecca rolled her eyes and tossed her the light jacket that was draped over her arm . Madeleine grinned as she wrapped the jacket around herself and walked right over to Fiona . Fiona turned her head and was a little surprised to see Madeleine , and even more surprised when she saw her walking straight towards her . " Madeleine ... ? " After her surprised utterance , Fiona realized it was inappropriate and quickly corrected herself , " Mrs.

Livingston , Rebecca . " " Just call me Madeleine . I don't like being called Mrs. Livingston . " Madeleine shrugged , her fingers rubbing the cuff of her jacket . Chapter 211 Fiona looked at her in surprise . " You don't like being called Mrs. Livingston ? Aren't you on great terms with Mr. Livingston now ? Why don't you like it ? " " Us having a good relationship and me not liking that title aren't mutually exclusive , are they ? " Fiona was even more confused . In the circle of wealthy wives , so many women were proud to take their husband's name .

" I am my own person , not someone's wife or someone's mother . I want people to know me for me . It's as simple as that . " Fiona's mouth fell slightly open . Sometimes she felt that Madeleine was so naive she didn't seem like an adult . But that naivety was exactly what she was missing now . " Madeleine . " Fiona nodded and said her name . " Are you guys here to shop Chapter 211 for clothes too ? " " I guess so . " Madeleine said , her gaze falling on the VIP fitting room that Mary had just entered not far away . " Here's a piece of advice : stay away from Mary . " " What ?

" Fiona's mind hadn't , caught up yet ; she was still thinking about what Madeleine had just said . When she snapped out of it , she looked up at Madeleine , her eyes trembling . " Why would you say that ? Do you two know each other ? " " We do more than just know each other . " Madeleine sneered . " Does she often check in on you , pretending to be your friend ? " Fiona nodded blankly . " Yeah , actually , I haven't known her for that long .

" " She's always following you around , eating and drinking without Chapter 211 ever paying , and she subtly and not - so - subtly gets you to buy her things . " Fiona nodded again , " It wasn't that much money ... " Madeleine was speechless . " And the most important part . " She narrowed her eyes slightly , " She often talked to you about Edward , telling you every now and then how great he was , how perfect you two were for each other , and after every time , you felt like you liked Edward even more ." The color drained from Fiona's face .

Her manicured fingers unconsciously gripped the armrest , her knuckles turning white . Madeleine's words were like a sharp knife , precisely dissecting everything that had felt wrong to her lately . " How could you know ... " Fiona's voice trembled a little , " These things ... I've never told anyone ." Madeleine's gaze fell on Fiona's trembling eyelashes , and she Chapter 211 said softly , " Because she used to do the same thing to me . " Mary's exaggerated laughter came from the direction of the fitting rooms , but to Fiona , the sound seemed to become very distant .

Countless fragments flashed through her mind . Mary was always in her ear , telling her how outstanding Edward was , how perfect they were for each other , and that Fiona should be more proactive ... " Have you noticed ? " Madeleine's voice was soft , but every word was clear , " That after every time you meet with her , your ' liking ' for Edward gets even stronger ? " Fiona snapped her head up , her pupils constricting .

She remembered having afternoon tea with Mary last week , when Mary mentioned out of nowhere that Edward liked the gentle , domestic type , and that very night , on some strange impulse , she had signed up for a flower arrangement class . " Yes ... This , this isn't normal . " Chapter 211 Fiona's voice was barely audible . " Of course it's not normal . " " Then what's the reason ! " Fiona nervously grabbed Madeleine's hand , her eyes filled with agitation . " I've already hinted at the reason to you . I can't say it plainly , you'll have to figure it out for yourself .

" She had already done all she could by telling her this much . Fiona's hand slowly loosened , her fingertips still trembling slightly . She looked down at her meticulously manicured nails and thought how ridiculously fake it all was . " I understand . " She took a deep breath , her gaze clearing . " Thank you , Madeleine . " Madeleine shrugged , looking relaxed . She turned to Rebecca and asked , " Rebecca , do you still want Chapter 211 to look at the clothes here? " " No , I don't want any clothes that someone like that has tried on . " " Hehe , then let's go to another store .

I'll buy them for you ! " " Alright , Madeleine , your company hasn't even launched and you're already acting like a big shot . " The two of them were already leaving arm in arm , laughing as they spoke .
