waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Rebecca took two sharp breaths , tilted her head up , and bit at his lips , full of resentment and a sense of abandon . Adrian's eyes darkened , his jaw tight , not letting Rebecca have her way . Confused , she pulled away from his lips , her eyes questioning what he meant . Adrian narrowed his eyes and scoffed . " I'm not interested in sleeping with a patient . " He paused for a moment after speaking . " It affects the experience . " In an instant , Rebecca felt like something had exploded in her mind . She was immediately filled with shame and anger . Adrian !

Chapter 230 How could he be so cruel ! " Then why did you come up with me ? " Rebecca immediately let go and took a step back , her voice turning several degrees colder . Adrian didn't say a word . He bent down and opened the shoe cabinet . Seeing no well - worn men's slippers inside , he was satisfied . He took out a brand new pair from the bottom , put them on , completely ignoring Rebecca's fury . " Go sit on the couch . " After saying that , he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen .

Rebecca felt a sense of powerlessness , like punching cotton , leaving her feeling completely drained . Ten minutes later , a fragrant aroma drifted from the kitchen , and a moment after , Adrian emerged with a bowl of noodles . " How come there's nothing in the fridge ? " " I don't like to cook . " Chapter 230 It wasn't that she couldn't , she just didn't like to . After her family went bankrupt , Rebecca had it harder than most people ; of course she knew how to cook . Back then , she had to scrimp and save to make even a few wilted vegetable leaves last for two meals .

It was just that cooking held too many bad memories for her . It had become a sore spot , so she was unwilling to do it . Adrian said nothing , silently watching her finish the meal . The night was silent . Outside the window , it looked like two shooting stars streaked by . One after the other , chasing each other , as if they were about to touch ... The next morning , Madeleine's period arrived right on schedule . The first day was usually the most painful for her , and she could only get through it with painkillers . Bored while curled up in bed , she picked up her phone to check .

the messages she'd sent to Rebecca . " What's going on ? I've sent so many messages all morning and Chapter 230 she hasn't replied . " Madeleine decided to just video call her . After a while , Rebecca finally answered . It turned out she was still in bed . " Rebecca , why aren't you awake yet ? " Madeleine was very surprised . It was already ten o'clock , and being in bed at ten was almost impossible for Rebecca . She had heard Roderick mention that Rebecca was a typical workaholic who worked herself to death .

The two of them had gone on a business trip abroad before , and because of the time difference , they had pulled an all - nighter in the country . On the plane , Roderick at least got some sleep , but Rebecca was working on documents the entire time . As soon as they landed , she went straight into work mode , not sleeping for a full forty hours , all to secure a project crucial to the group's future . Roderick said frankly that sometimes even he was intimidated by Rebecca's drive . Chapter 230 " Are you not feeling well ?

" Madeleine looked at Rebecca's just - woken - up face and could easily see that she was pale . She answered in a hoarse voice , " I ate something bad last night . Gastroenteritis . " " Ah ! Why didn't you tell me ? Did you go to the hospital ? Are you still feeling unwell now ? " " I've been , got a shot and took some medicine . It's nothing serious . " Rebecca got out of bed with her phone , and when she opened her bedroom door , she froze . Adrian was just coming out of the kitchen with a small dish , placing it on the table . He looked up at her and said naturally : "You're up ?

Go wash up and come eat . I've looked at your medicine , it all needs to be taken after your meal . " ! Chapter 230 On the other end of the phone , Madeleine's jaw almost dropped . Wait , she didn't mishear , did she ? That was a man's voice on the other end , right ? Taking a deep breath , Madeleine yelled- " Rebecca ! Why is there a man in your house ! " Madeleine's voice was so loud that Rebecca's hand trembled , nearly dropping her phone on the floor . She quickly hung up the phone and looked at Adrian awkwardly . " You haven't left yet . " " Yeah .

" Adrian put down the small dish and slowly wiped his hands with a tissue . " I wanted to see what you'd say after you woke up , whether Chapter 230 you'd go back on your word and pretend last night never happened . " Rebecca : " Huh? Ah ...
