waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Chapter 248 When her son saw the therapist , Mr. Eleanor had said something similar . The little guy has a very low sense of self - worth because he's so sensitive . Is Rebecca like that too ? But I never noticed . " She hides it very well . " Roderick saw what Madeleine was thinking and said in a low voice , " Maybe it's the grim experience of her family going bankrupt , or the death of Leo who pulled her from the darkness -those things hit her too hard . " Even as he said it , Roderick couldn't help but sigh .

" Maybe those are the things that make her subconsciously feel that good things aren't meant for her , that she belongs in a darker place . " Madeleine's mouth fell open slightly as she understood , picking Chapter 248 up where Roderick left off : " So , the maturity , stability , and tolerance Adrian shows are , in her eyes , another form of perfection and light . The two are opposites , and she can't feel at ease standing beside him . " Roderick nodded in approval . His Madeleine really was clever . " So , if I were Adrian , the first thing I'd do is sink with her .

" Madeleine took a deep breath . It was a long moment before she spoke . " Ricki , if you'd used that brain of yours to go after me back then , would we really have spent all those years as sworn enemies ?! " The yard was filled with laughter when footsteps were heard outside , followed by the doorbell ringing . Bradley was busy with the BBQ skewers . Just because Kevin had praised his grilling as the best , he'd been standing in front of the grill for an hour . " Who is it ? Rebecca and him ? " Chapter 248 Bradley wiped his hands and went to open the door . " Unbelievable .

After those two are done fooling around , I still have to open the door for them . " Grumbling irritably , Bradley went and pressed the switch for the yard gate . The moment the gate opened , a gust of fresh air rushed in from outside . Mixed with a familiar , intoxicating scent of wood and flowers . Bradley was so struck by the familiar scent that he almost lost his balance . Charlotte just appeared before him like that . She was wearing a long white floral dress , paired with a long , dark brown coat , and a matching white floral scarf wrapped around her neck , looking elegant and classy .

Time seemed to freeze in that moment . Bradley swallowed all his earlier complaints and grumbling , his mind going blank . Because besides Charlotte . Chapter 248 He also saw a familiar figure . The man Charlotte had once posted on her moments . " Long time no see , Bradley . " The surprise in Charlotte's eyes vanished in a flash , a smile gracing the corners of her eyes as she greeted Bradley gently . Bradley wanted to speak , but his throat was tight , and he subconsciously focused all his attention on the man beside Charlotte .

The man was tall , wore black - rimmed glasses , and looked very refined . Charlotte turned her head , " Simon Adler , this is the one I told you about , my younger brother , Bradley . " The man smiled and extended his hand to Bradley . " So you're Bradley . I've often heard your sister mention you . My name is Simon , and I'm your sister's ... " " Boyfriend . " Charlotte finished , smiling slightly . Chapter 248 Those words were the last straw for Bradley ; his pupils trembled violently . " Hello . " He nodded , not extending his hand , just responding mechanically .

His brain was still processing the information : " Charlotte really has a boyfriend , " " Charlotte doesn't want him anymore . " He stiffly turned to the side , letting the two of them in . Charlotte and Simon were both carrying things and greeted everyone as they came in . Charlotte walked up to Madeleine . " Long time no see , Madeleine . The last time I saw you was at your and Roderick's wedding . You haven't changed a bit . " " Hi , Charlotte . " Madeleine smiled guiltily . The last time she saw her wasn't at the wedding ... Charlotte took out a box and handed it over .

" These are a Chapter 248 protective amulet and a bracelet I got from the church last time . There's a set for you and Rebecca . " " Wow , thank you , Charlotte . " " Don't be so formal . Where's Rebecca ? " " Oh , she's ... " Before she could finish , Rebecca's voice came from outside the gate . " Madeleine ! Come help ! I picked a ton of gossip . " Madeleine gave a strained smile . There really was a lot of gossip today . After Rebecca finished talking with Professor Shaw , he led her around to the other side . Some vegetables and fruits were growing there .

Adrian had initially lied to Rebecca , pretending he didn't know who planted them , and told her to quickly sneak some back with her . Rebecca felt it wasn't right . Although she believed in being Chapter 248 frugal , it didn't mean she should steal things . Adrian calmly told her it was fine , since the owner would probably just think a wild animal ate anything that went missing Cedella Cedella is a passionate storyteller known for her bold romantic and spicy novels that keep readers hooked from the very first chapter.
