Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180

Who knew that she would just stare at him for a moment.

The next second.

Madeleine leaned down, almost pushing Roderick into the

water.

She had no technique, only pure emotion.

The wave of heat she created felt like it was going to drown

Roderick.

Roderick’s surprise was no less than their first time together.

He heard the person in his arms murmuring that she wanted to

go back to the room, back to bed.

Roderick’s voice was hoarse.

“I can’t wait, Kev…”

“Let’s just do it here, okay?”

After a long moment.

He heard Madeleine give a soft “mm.”

…

Meanwhile, with Bradley, after they finished at the mummy

museum, he followed Isabella to visit her forensic science

center.

The two of them didn’t exchange a single word of idle chatter,

just a constant stream of professional knowledge.

Anyone who knew would say they were on a blind date, but

anyone who didn’t would think they were at some kind of

academic conference.

Before they knew it, it was evening.

They had dinner in the cafeteria but didn’t eat much, so they

decided to grab a late–night snack together.

It was only while they were eating their late–night snack that

Bradley came to his senses.

Wait, this is a blind date.

He cleared his throat and awkwardly brought up the topic.

“Um, Isabella.”

That’s what Bradley had been calling Isabella all afternoon.

It made their relationship sound like one between a senior and

a junior.

He scratched his head, unsure of where to begin.

He hadn’t taken this blind date seriously at first, planning to just

get through a meal and be done with it.

He didn’t expect that they’d get along so well because of their

similar professions.

But getting along is one thing; there just wasn’t any real spark.

He was afraid the girl might get the wrong idea, so now he was

racking his brain trying to figure out how to explain.

It would be better to clear the air sooner rather than later.

“What’s wrong?”

“Actually, there’s something I should have made clear to you

earlier. You’re a great girl, it’s just that I…”

Isabella stared at him with a smile, seemingly not curious about

what he was going to say.

“I think, we… maybe we should just…”

“Bradley.”

Isabella suddenly propped her chin on her hand, her eyes

sparkling as she stared at him, “So what’s really going on

between you and Charlotte?”

Bradley’s expression was a bit stiff.

He stared at Isabella for a moment, his eyes filled with

confusion at first.

They had been chatting all afternoon, and it seemed they hadn’t

mentioned Charlotte even once.

Or maybe…

Back at the restaurant during lunch, had Isabella already figured

out that he and Charlotte knew each other?

Isabella giggled, “You don’t have to look at me like that. I

guessed it the moment you two met.”

“Uh, was it that obvious?”

Isabella snorted with laughter.

“Did you think you were a good actor?”

Bradley laughed dryly.

Isabella continued to gossip, asking tentatively, “You must be

that ‘little brother‘ of Charlotte’s, right?”

Bradley’s expression grew even stranger, a look of ‘how do you

know everything‘ on his face.

He forced a smile.

“Are you… very close with Charlotte?”

“Charlotte handled a case for one of my relatives before. I was

the one who delivered the documents and stuff, so we got to

know each other over time.”

Isabella winked, a meaningful smile on her face. “So, she

mentions you sometimes.”

Bradley’s breath hitched, and he unconsciously rubbed the rim

of his coffee cup. “What… what did she say about me?”

Isabella tilted her head, deliberately drawing out her words.
