Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222

The sight made Edward, who was coming out of the venue, see

red.

He was sure something had changed. Was someone messing

with things?

But Madeleine’s change could just mean she’d had a change of

heart and fallen for-Roderick.

But what about Fiona?

His phone vibrated. Fiona had sent a reply.

[Something’s come up. Sorry.]

The tone was cold, something that had never happened before.

Edward’s heart felt empty, as if something was quietly slipping.

away.

He clutched his chest as a sudden, dull ache made it almost

impossible to breathe.

“Mr. Carroll, are you alright?”

The driver came over, steadying him with a worried look.

Edward shook his head, his face pale. “Drive.”

“Mr. Carroll, where are we going?”

“To find Fiona.”

Edward drove around in circles.

He first went to Fiona’s company, where they said she hadn’t

been in for two days.

Edward went to find Fiona’s father.

He was busy and looked a little surprised to see Edward.

“Edward, what are you doing here?

Looking for Fiona?”

“Yes, Mr. Bell. Do you know what’s been going on with Fiona

these past few days?”

Mr. Bell frowned. “Isn’t it because something’s wrong between

you two?”

“Us… having a problem?”

Edward muttered, his mind replaying the events of the past few days. He and Fiona hadn’t seen each other for several days

now.

“Isn’t that it? Fiona’s been in a bad mood. She used to mention

you to me all the time, but she hasn’t lately. I was wondering if

you two had a fight.”

After a moment of thought, Edward finally asked, “Where is

Fiona now?”

“Probably at home.”

“Thank you, Mr. Bell.”

With that, Edward quickened his pace, turned, and left.

He urgently needed to find Fiona and get some answers.

Fiona usually lived alone. Edward had her address and the

access code, so he got in easily.

He stood at the door, hesitated for a moment, then knocked.

After a while, Fiona came and opened the door. She looked a bit

stunned when she saw him.

“What are you doing here?”

Fiona pressed her lips together, and after a moment, she

stepped aside to let him in.

“Whatever you have to say, come in and say it.”

Edward nodded. After entering, he noticed something was off.

The furnishings in the room seemed to have changed a lot

since his last visit.

The photo of the two of them on the cabinet was gone.

The knick–knack they bought together on the table was also

gone.

It seemed like all traces of him were gone from this room.

It wasn’t just the room’s decor; even Fiona herself seemed like

a different person.

Her style of dress, the whole aura she gave off, was completely

different from before.

The questions in Edward’s mind grew deeper.

“Sit wherever. I’ll get you some water.”

Fiona seemed quite composed. As she turned around, Edward

grabbed her arm.

Fiona didn’t turn back, her body stiffening.

“Fiona…”

Edward’s voice was hard. “The bid is over. Aren’t you going to

ask me the result?”

Fiona let out a soft laugh.

“Mr. Carroll is young and promising, with incredible abilities. Of

course you’d win. Do I even need to ask?”

“Of course!”

Edward used some force, pulling Fiona right in front of him.

He gritted his teeth, glaring down into Fiona’s eyes.

“What the hell is going on? What happened? Why have you…

changed.”

“Have I changed?”

Fiona’s lips curled into a smile.

“How have I changed?”

“You weren’t like this before. Fiona, don’t you like me anymore?”
