Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 151

Chapter 151

Madeleine’s attitude already showed that this matter wouldn’t

be easily dropped.

Rather than wait to be attacked, it was better to cut her losses.

“If you do something wrong, you should take responsibility.”

Fiona’s tone was cold, but her eyes were fixed on Madeleine’s

reaction. “I’ll have my lawyer follow up. We’ll pay what needs to

be paid and apologize for what needs to be apologized for.”

Madeleine finally looked up at her, a hint of scrutiny in her eyes.

“I hope you’re a woman of your word.”

There was a chlorine gas incident in the restaurant. Although no

one else was hurt besides the woman who had an asthma

attack, the restaurant still evacuated everyone for their safety.

Just then, a light rain began to fall outside. Madeleine and her

secretaries stood at the entrance, waiting for the driver.

Fiona stood not far behind her, her gaze following Madeleine,

her expression distant.

She had changed.

Like she was a completely different person.

The old Madeleine was like a soulless doll, with nothing in her

mind but Edward.

That’s why she seemed brainless, annoying, and completely

without a mind of her own.

And that was exactly what Fiona despised.

But today, her reaction took Fiona by surprise.

It was as if she had become a whole new person. The

Madeleine of today was completely independent, with a mind of

her own, making a clean break from the past.

Her fingers unconsciously toyed with the metal clasp on her

purse, but the cool sensation did nothing to quell the strange

anxiety rising in her heart.

“Fiona…”

The woman who had just been slapped was now apologizing

with her head bowed.

“I’m so sorry, I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. Don’t

worry, I’ll go to the police station and clear things up. I won’t drag you down.”

Fiona ignored her.

Seeing Fiona’s gaze fixed on Madeleine, they assumed she was

angry.

Another woman quickly spoke up, “Fiona, don’t overthink it.

There’s no way Mr. Carroll would be interested in someone like

her.”

“Yeah, you’re the only woman by Mr. Carroll’s side right now. We

all see how good he is to you.”

“Mr. Carroll dotes on you.”

Fiona’s expression darkened further.

She was, indeed, the only woman by Edward’s side, and their

relationship was quite stable.

At least, that’s what she had thought before running into

Madeleine again.

But now, she had a nagging feeling.

Edward’s attitude toward Madeleine seemed to have changed.

As she was pondering, a black Maybach pulled up nearby, and a

tall, slender figure stepped out.

Dressed in a perfectly pressed black suit, he took a long-

handled black umbrella from someone beside him after exiting

the car and strode gracefully towards the restaurant entrance.

Fiona heard the women beside Madeleine gasp.

“The CEO!”

?

“Oh my god, the CEO is here. He can’t be here to pick you up,

can he, Chase?”

“Real couples are the best!”

Madeleine felt a little dizzy.

She hadn’t expected Roderick to come.

The fine rain outlined a hazy halo around him. The umbrella was

tilted slightly, hiding most of his face, revealing only his sharp

jawline.

When he got closer, Madeleine snapped back to reality, smiling

at him happily, her eyes sparkling.

“What are you doing here!”

Roderick walked up to her, closed his umbrella, and looked

exasperated.

“I was worried you’d drink.”

Madeleine’s smile turned a bit awkward. She rubbed her nose

and whispered, “Don’t say that. I just told them I don’t drink

because I don’t want to.”

။

It would be so embarrassing if they found out I’m a lightweight.

The four secretaries were all smiling, greeting Roderick with

expressions that screamed they were shipping a couple.
