“With you two as Roderick’s closest friends, I can finally relax a
bit.”
Owen let out a long sigh as he spoke.
“This kid can be reckless sometimes, so please keep an eye on
him.”
Madeleine had heard these words since she was a child.
Roderick’s father had always been strict with him, otherwise he
wouldn’t have gotten so many spankings as a kid.
But hearing him say that now, Madeleine felt a little indignant.
How is the Roderick of today reckless?
He manages such a huge corporation and still takes such good
care of his family. He’s the model of a good man, okay?
Of course, she didn’t dare say this in front of Owen, just pouted
and grumbled to herself.
“By the way, Rebecca, your dad was fishing with me the other
Chapter 140
day and asked if you’ve been dating anyone recently.”
“Pfft…”
Rebecca turned her head and spat out the mouthful of tea she
had just sipped.
Bradley, sitting next to her, also had an amused look on his
face.
“Owen, are you kidding? Our career woman Rebecca doesn’t
have time for dating.”
“She doesn’t?”
Mrs. Miller gently asked from the side, “Then why does Rebecca
look a little different today? She even came and asked me how
to dress to look more gentle.”
Mrs. Miller smiled as she spoke.
“I thought Rebecca had finally seen the light.”
Rebecca, who was usually so composed in everything she did,
couldn’t help but feel a bit awkward now.
To say she was dating… not really.
Chapter 140
To say she wasn’t… she was indeed trying to flirt with a man.
Tsk, it’s hard to explain.
“That’s not true, Owen. Don’t listen to my dad’s nonsense. He’s
just desperate for a grandchild.”
Rebecca forced a laugh and chugged another mouthful of tea.
Owen raised an eyebrow, looking smug. “Well, your dad must be
desperate. After all, he’s not like me. I’m surrounded by children
and grandchildren, while your dad only has you, his one
daughter.”
Rebecca’s mouth twitched.
Sometimes, she really couldn’t understand men’s
competitiveness.
After forcing a few laughs to brush it off, Rebecca shifted the
topic to Bradley.
Owen immediately shifted his fire, lecturing Bradley with the
same old lines about not messing around all the time and
settling down to date and get married.
Rebecca remembered the moments post she’d made earlier
Chapter 140
and couldn’t resist opening her phone to check.
Still no ‘like‘.
Tsk…
Madeleine’s stomach had been growling for a while, so she
could only rest her chin on her hand and listen to them talk.
Seeing Rebecca frowning at her phone, she couldn’t help but
lean over curiously.
“What are you looking at?”
The screen went dark quickly, but Madeleine still noticed the
beautiful figure in green on it.
It was a selfie of Rebecca.
“Huh, you posted on your moments?
How come I didn’t see it.”
Rebecca was a little embarrassed, opened her phone again, and
said in a muffled voice, “It’s only visible to one person.”
“That old fossil?
Chapter 140
!”
“Yeah.”
The two of them whispered very quietly so no one else could
hear.
Madeleine leaned over to look at the caption she posted and
couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Only idiots look without liking. Where’d you find this caption?”
“Online, obviously.”
Rebecca went back and showed Madeleine the website where
she found the caption.
100 Moments Captions to Flirt with Your Crush
Madeleine scrolled down a bit, and it was all aggressive/risqué
language. Good thing Rebecca picked the most innocent one.
The corner of her mouth twitched.
