Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 191

The way he phrased it, Adrian couldn’t possibly refuse.

Sure enough, he hesitated for a moment before turning to ask

for Rebecca’s opinion.

Rebecca was on the verge of tears. She glared at Roderick and

his wife, wanting to rip them to shreds.

“Fine.”

Could she dare say no?

If she did, that couple would eat her alive.

After the event ended, the group went to dinner together.

When they arrived, Madeleine saw Fiona standing by the

entrance, apparently waiting for someone.

Her brow furrowed slightly.

“Fiona?”

Roderick noticed her too and replied, “I saw her at the venue

earlier. She’s representing her father.”

Madeleine’s face darkened.

Don’t tell me Edward is here too?

After just a few steps, Fiona noticed them and walked straight

over.

Madeleine was surprised. Could she have been waiting for

them at the door?

Madeleine slowed down, watching Fiona walk straight toward

her.

She looked a bit more worn out than the last time they met,

something even her exquisite makeup couldn’t hide.

She stopped in front of Madeleine, her lips moving as if she

was trying to figure out what to say.

In the end, Madeleine was the first to speak.

“Fiona, what a coincidence.”

“It’s not a coincidence.”

Fiona gave a bitter smile and said honestly, “I knew you guys

Chapter 191

were coming here for dinner, so I waited for you on purpose.”

Madeleine didn’t expect her to be so direct and was at a loss

for words.

“Is there something you need, Fiona?”

Roderick spoke up, his body language already shielding Madeleine, worried Fiona might do something to hurt her.

After all.

How many people associated with Edward were actually sane?

Fiona quickly explained, “I’m sorry, I know this is a bit forward,

but I just… have something I’d like to talk to Madeleine about

alone.”

Fiona’s eyes were full of sincerity.

Seeing Fiona like this surprised Madeleine a little.

After all, in her memory, Fiona was a wealthy heiress who

wouldn’t flinch even if a mountain collapsed in front of her.

But now, it seemed like she was about to break.

Just as Roderick was about to refuse, Madeleine agreed first.

“Okay, when?”

“Is now okay?”

Madeleine nodded and turned back to look at Roderick.

“You go in with Professor Shaw and the others first. I’ll be right

there after we talk.”

Roderick was still worried, frowning as he whispered, “I’ll get

someone to stay with you.”

“No need. Fiona won’t hurt me.”

If she really wanted to do something, she wouldn’t have brought

it up in front of Roderick.

There happened to be a lounge area on the first floor, so Fiona

and Madeleine walked over.

They sat quietly in a deserted corner.

“Do you… want something to drink?”

Fiona seemed a little uncomfortable.

Madeleine shook her head. “Just say what you have to say. I

don’t want to keep my husband waiting too long, he’ll worry.”

A flicker of sadness crossed Fiona’s eyes.

“You and your husband have such a good relationship.”

“It’s alright.”

“I used to think what I had with Edward was love, but now…”

Fiona lowered her head and gave a self–deprecating laugh.

Before, she had been stuck in her own world, with eyes only for

Edward.

Only after truly getting away from that environment, that

relationship, did she realize everything she went through was

bullshit.

Hearing this, Madeleine’s heart skipped a beat.

She must have realized something, right?

“Sorry, I’ll stop with the nonsense. The real reason I came to you

today is because…”

Fiona hesitated for a moment.

“After I realized you really don’t like Edward, I, uh, took the
