waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Before the words were even out , the fitting room door was pushed open , and Madeleine walked out carefully in high heels , holding the hem of her dress . Roderick looked up at the sound , his gaze freezing instantly . Madeleine was wearing a champagne - colored mermaid gown , her waist so slender it looked like you could wrap a hand around it , the hem of her skirt adorned with tiny diamonds that glittered with her every move . Her long hair was pulled up , revealing a slender neck , and two small pearls dangled from her earlobes , accentuating her snow- white skin .

She was breathtakingly beautiful . The stylist beside her , looking a little nervous , walked over and had Madeleine turn around for Roderick to see . The back of the dress was an open - back design , revealing a patch of snow - white skin , and the cutouts at her waist subtly hinted at her curves . Chapter 94 The stylist whispered , " Sir , if you feel it's a bit too revealing , this . dress also comes with a silk stole . " " A silk stole ? " Roderick frowned . " Why ? " " Well ... I was worried you might not approve .

" The stylist smiled ; after all , he'd seen plenty of possessive gentlemen who didn't want their wives showing too much skin in public . Roderick considered it for a moment , then turned to look at Madeleine . " It's your choice what you wear . You can decide for yourself . " Madeleine hadn't expected him to say that , and she looked at herself in the mirror . The open back was truly the perfect touch ; even she couldn't take her eyes off herself . Before she could answer , Roderick nodded at the stylist . " Thank you , we won't need the silk stole . " " Alright .

" Chapter 94 The stylist let out a sigh of relief , pleased . After all , if it were covered up , who would see the gorgeous look he had created ? With that thought , he pushed his luck and asked if he could take a couple of photos of Mrs. Livingston to post on his social media account for promotion . Although Roderick was jealous , he could only stay silent when he saw Madeleine nod . Five minutes later , the shares on the original photos the stylist posted were skyrocketing . Madeleine didn't go to the summit .

She spent some time alone at the studio , and the driver picked her up just before the dinner gala was about to start . " Chase , please wait a moment . I tried calling the president , but he's not picking up . " Madeleine glanced over and saw that everyone was already going inside . Chapter 94 " It's fine , I'll go in and find him . " With that , she opened the car door and got out herself . Her outfit was so stunning that the moment she stepped out of the car , cameras turned to her , and flashes went off nonstop . Madeleine had never experienced such a spectacle .

She was panicking inside but tried her best to keep her composure , thinking she couldn't embarrass Ricki . Lifting her skirt , she walked across the red carpet . As Madeleine walked , she heard voices talking behind her , their tone full of mockery . " Didn't Mr. Carroll bring Fiona today ? Is someone planning to go in and crash the party ? " " Her ? What trouble can a people - pleaser like her cause ? She probably can't even get in the door . " Madeleine's eyelid twitched . That " people - pleaser " comment was about her , wasn't it . " Wearing something so revealing ... shameless .

Who is she Chapter 94 trying to show off for ? Even if she got naked in Mr. Carroll's bed , he wouldn't give her a second look . " Madeleine took a deep breath and glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye . Two women , also dressed lavishly , were approaching her , smirks of ridicule on their faces . The world of Male - oriented Web Novels is really something else . The female characters are always so one - dimensional , full of catfights . She didn't pay them any mind , but when she noticed the curvier woman behind her lifting her foot to step on her dress , she couldn't hold back .

The moment the other woman was about to succeed , Madeleine suddenly spun around cleanly and closed the distance . The woman was startled by her sudden approach and jerked backward . The person next to her didn't even have time to react and also stepped back in fright . Chapter 94 Madeleine reached out and grabbed her arm , preventing her from falling flat on her back . But in those two stumbling steps , she twisted her ankle , her face instantly turning pale with pain , unable to speak . " You ... " Madeleine's gaze was clear . " Are you alright ? Sorry about that .

You were so close , I thought you were coming to say hello . " " You did that on purpose! " The woman gritted her teeth , her eyes filled with malice . Madeleine let go and took half a step back . " Yes , I did . Otherwise , was I supposed to pretend nothing happened after hearing you gossip , curse me , spread indecent rumors , and even try to step on my dress ?
