After the door closed, Roderick picked up his phone and called
Madeleine.
“Hello.”
The moment he heard Madeleine’s voice, Roderick’s expression
softened.
“Did you find a family–friendly restaurant for tonight?”
“I found two. I sent them to you on Facebook. Take a look and
pick one.”
Roderick patiently opened Facebook and took a look.
“Let’s go with the second one. It’s closer.”
“Okay, I thought that one was better too. We’re so in sync.”
Roderick couldn’t help but smile again.
“Are you free tomorrow? There’s a medical research seminar I’d
like to take you to.”
Chapter 184
“A seminar?”
Madeleine was a bit confused. “I don’t know much about
medicine…”
“Adrian is one of the guest speakers.”
Roderick said pointedly.
There was silence on the other end for a few seconds, then
Madeleine’s voice came through, full of realization. “Oh~ You
mean Rebecca’s Professor Shaw.”
“Right. She’ll probably be there too.”
Madeleine was immediately interested and eagerly agreed.
She’d been dying of curiosity about those two for a while now.
Jason didn’t wake up from his hangover until the afternoon.
Last night, a few of his bad–influence friends took him to a
nightclub to celebrate his return to the country.
The hangover headache made him curse under his breath.
Chapter 184
His phone was ringing relentlessly. He irritably grabbed it from
the nightstand.
“Speak.”
“Jason, that woman you asked me to look into… I have
information.”
Jason didn’t think much of it. “Which woman?”
“Madeleine.”
Jason’s eyes snapped open, Madeleine’s fair, pretty face
flashing in his mind.
He’d even dreamed of that face last night.
“What did you find?”
“She’s already married.”
“What?!”
Jason sat up in bed, his voice filled with disbelief.
“Are you kidding me? Her, married?”
That woman has always been so arrogant, acting like she was
Chapter 184
better than everyone. Didn’t she do ballet or something? And
she’s married!?
Then, Jason thought of something, scoffed, his eyes filled with
contempt.
“I was wondering how she got the money to rent an office. She
must have latched onto some old rich guy.”
Should’ve said so earlier. Such a beautiful woman, what a waste
for some old man to play with.
The person on the other end was silent for a moment before
speaking.
“No… Madeleine’s husband is… Roderick of the Livingston
Group.”
“Who?”
Jason’s brain froze for a second.
“Roderick, the one from the financial world who recently…”
“I know who he is, you don’t need to spell it out for me!”
Jason cut him off abruptly, his expression displeased.
Chapter 184
He was just baffled. How could it be him?
He remembered that guy Roderick didn’t get along with
Madeleine. Weren’t they mortal enemies!?
Wait, how come they were both her enemies, but she slapped
him and ended up marrying Roderick
“I’ve also looked into what Roderick and his wife have been up
to these past few years. Are you interested?”
Jason gritted his teeth. “You think I give a shit about someone
else’s happy marriage!
?
What the fuck is wrong with me?”
The person on the other end was silent for two seconds after
being yelled at, then said hesitantly:
“No, you’ve misunderstood. From what I know, their marriage
isn’t happy.”
The tension in Jason’s brow instantly vanished. After hearing his subordinate’s report, he hung up the phone with a smirk.
“Madeleine, Roderick, Edward?
Chapter 184
Interesting…”
Mr. Livingston, who was always so dedicated to his work, was
acting strange today.
He didn’t come to the office this morning, and then he even left
