waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Madeleine felt she had nowhere to hide under his gaze , that old bit of jealousy and her youthful feelings brought to the surface . Embarrassed , she buried her face in the crook of his neck , her voice coming out muffled : " ... E - even if a little bit ... was because you were talking to her ... just a little bit ! " (Which side couple should we see first ? I'm taking suggestions on this . ) Already thin - skinned , Madeleine felt her ears burning hot . Seriously , wasn't she supposed to be the one questioning Roderick ? How did she end up being the one getting played ?

" You went to see Leona . What did you two talk about ? " " She and I made a three - month agreement . " Roderick frowned . " What three - month agreement ? " 29 Chapter 269 Madeleine recounted their conversation , and Roderick's frown deepened after hearing it . " What's wrong ? You don't think it's a good idea ? " Madeleine sat up and looked at Roderick strangely . He always supported all her decisions , but this time he didn't voice his opinion right away . " It's not that it's a bad idea . " Roderick sighed softly and stroked Madeleine's hair . " I'm just worried about you .

You're already overwhelmed with starting your business , and now you have to train too . What if your body can't take it ? " Madeleine was silent for a moment . " It is a bit of an overload , but Ricki , I could see the unwillingness in Leona's eyes . She felt that way for me . You should know , giving up ballet these past few years ... was a huge blow to me . " Roderick nodded . For the Madeleine of the past , ballet was an indispensable part of her life . Chapter 269 If there was a chance to get it back , it would indeed be a good thing . " It's only for three months .

I believe I can handle it , and I've already figured it out . " Madeleine narrowed her eyes , stroking her chin . " I'm going to have ambitions for my father's success ! " What Madeleine meant by having ambitions for her father's success was calling back Harold , who was idly playing poker . " Sweetheart , you've organized this information so thoroughly . There's nothing left for your dad to do , is there ? " Harold flipped through the pile of documents Madeleine brought over , unable to help but be amazed . Was this still the pampered daughter he had raised ? When did she become so capable ?

" The paperwork is all done , but I'm having some trouble with the factory side of things . " Madeleine scratched her head sheepishly . " Dad , I might need you to come out of retirement and keep an eye on the factory . " Chapter 269 As soon as she said that , Clarissa , who was standing by , was all for it . " We really need to find something for your dad to do . He's been so addicted to playing poker these past two days that his neck . problems are acting up . Ugh , I can't even be bothered to talk about him . " " Look at you , look at you , saying these things in front of our daughter .

Don't embarrass me . " " You still care about being embarrassed ? You're in your fifties and still so addicted to cards . You should hurry up and help our daughter more while you still can ." " Alright , alright , I'll listen to you , dear . " The couple went back and forth , and when they turned their heads , they found Madeleine's eyes brimming with tears . Harold panicked , scrambling to get a tissue to wipe his daughter's tears . " Maddie , what's wrong ? Why are you crying ? Dad didn't say he wouldn't help . " Madeleine sniffled and wiped her tears . " It's nothing , Dad .

I Chapter 269 just ... I just feel really bad . If it weren't for all this messy business , you should be enjoying a peaceful retirement right . now , just like Roderick's father . " " Silly child , there's no need to feel bad among family . " Harold patted Madeleine's head lovingly . " What silly things to say . You're now Mrs. Livingston , whom everyone envies . Logically , you could just stay home and enjoy life , but you don't . You're working hard for your dreams , for the Mosley family's business . Dad couldn't be happier . " He said , raising an eyebrow proudly .

" What ' enjoying a peaceful retirement ' ? That's what old men with no ambition hope for . Your dad can still continue to contribute in retirement , be a rock for my dear Maddie . You have no idea how fulfilling that is . " Clarissa also ruffled Madeleine's hair and put an arm around her daughter's shoulder . " We're family , we don't say such things . We're so happy to support you as you get back on your feet and do what you want to do . How could you ever be a burden ?
