waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Chapter 275 Besides , weren't there things she hadn't told Adrian , too ? Looking at Rebecca , Madeleine understood a few things . She wasn't confident when it came to romance , or rather , relationships in general . Even with their own friendship , if she hadn't been so warm and persistent from the start , it would have been hard to get close to someone with Rebecca's personality . I just hope Professor Shaw can be more proactive. Someone like Rebecca needs to feel two hundred percent loved before she's willing to open her heart . That's not an easy thing to do .

With that in mind , while Rebecca was looking at the menu , Madeleine picked up her phone and sent a text to Roderick , asking him to find out about Adrian's family . Rebecca was her friend , after all . Some preparations had to be made in advance . Eating good food and chatting about gossip , much of Madeleine's exhaustion faded away . The two of them finished dinner , talking and laughing , and decided to go wander around a nearby mall Just as they walked out of the restaurant , that feeling of being watched returned to Rebecca .

She glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye , but couldn't see clearly . It looked like she wasn't just seeing things . " Maddie , could you go get me a bubble tea ? " Rebecca said , " It's just around that corner . " Madeleine looked at her , confused . " Don't you hate that super sweet stuff ? You used to judge me for drinking it . " " As your bestie , your taste has rubbed off on me . " Madeleine was very pleased with that reason . " No need to feel bad about catching my good taste .

It's a shame I'm watching my calories for dancing and can't have any , but you'll let me have a sip to try it later , okay ? " " Sure , go ahead . I'll wait for you here . " Once she was far enough away , the smile on Rebecca's face vanished . She quickly ducked into a secluded alley . The footsteps followed , just as she'd expected . She timed it perfectly , spinning around and slamming the person against the wall . When she saw who it was , the fierce look in Rebecca's eyes vanished , replaced by shock and confusion as she stared at her . " How ... could it be you ?

" Rebecca finished speaking in surprise and quickly let go . The girl in front of her was only a teenager , still with a youthful air , and she looked a bit flustered , probably startled by Rebecca . " Re ... Rebecca . " Rebecca looked at the face that looked quite a bit like Leo's , her emotions complicated . This was Leo's sister , Lillie Bishop . " Lillie , why are you following me ? " Lillie , wearing a backpack , clutched the straps with both hands , her gaze wandering , not daring to meet Rebecca's eyes . But after a moment's hesitation , it was as if she'd thought of something .

She raised her head . " Rebecca , I just saw you . " " That's obvious . You've been following me this whole time . " Rebecca paused as she spoke , seeming to finally realize what she meant by " saw you . " " What are you trying to say ? " Lillie pressed her lips together , her gaze fixed on Rebecca with a hint of harsh questioning . " Are you dating someone ? " So she had seen her with Adrian . Rebecca's face darkened , and she said nothing . Chapter 275 Lillie was getting agitated . " I saw everything . You were with that guy in glasses , holding hands , and you even went to the movies .

" Rebecca still didn't speak , feeling as if something had just slammed into her chest . Staring into Lillie's eyes , so similar to Leo's , she could see swirling confusion , hurt , and even a hint of angry betrayal . " So , you are dating someone , aren't you ? " Lillie repeated , her hand gripping the bag's strap tighter , her knuckles turning slightly white . " Yes . " After a moment's hesitation , Rebecca nodded . In an instant , Lillie felt as if something had come crashing down . In disbelief , she looked at Rebecca , her eyes immediately turning red . " Rebecca , you ...

how could you ? " Her voice was choked with tears as she took half a step back . Rebecca instinctively reached for her arm , but Lillie dodged her . " Have you ... have you forgotten my brother so quickly , Rebecca ? In my mind , you weren't this kind of person . Don't you think what you're doing now ... is a betrayal of his memory ? " As she spoke , tears began to stream uncontrollably down her face . " In my heart , you're my sister - in - law ... " Rebecca's brow furrowed . " Lillie , you've misunderstood . Your brother and I were actually ... " " Enough !

" Lillie wiped the tears from her face , her voice trembling and choked as she accused , " You don't care about my brother at all . He did so much for you , he even ... even kept saying your name when he was dying . " Lillie clutched her chest in pain . " You were just , just playing with his feelings , and my brother was so ...
