Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 226

“What did you just say?”

“Nothing.”

Madeleine shook her head, her chest feeling tight again.

She had almost forgotten about it, so why was she thinking of it

again?

Roderick turned off the faucet, walked closer, and squatted

down to look Madeleine straight in the eye, his voice serious

but coaxing.

“What’s wrong? Talk to me?”

He could tell Madeleine was holding something back, or else

she wouldn’t look so upset.

Madeleine was about to hold it back, but when he asked, she

couldn’t help but let it all out.

“Back then, you couldn’t tell if you liked me or not. Wasn’t it

because you had someone else in your heart?”

Chapter 226

Madeleine pouted, feeling that ten–year–old jealousy, and poked

Roderick’s chest with her finger.

Roderick looked completely baffled.

What was that?

When did he ever have someone else in his heart?

“What’s going on in that noggin of yours? Who’s been telling

you things?

Who else could there be but you?”

“You really can’t remember?”

Madeleine got angrier the more she spoke.

“It’s not that I can’t remember, it’s that it never happened.”

“Leona!”

Madeleine put her hands on her hips and spat out the name

irritably.

Roderick’s eyes showed a brief moment of confusion, then he

seemed to recall some fragments.

Chapter 226

“Is that the Leona from the year above us?”

Madeleine immediately seized on his weak spot. “See? See? I

told you you remembered.”

You’re just pretending.

Just a moment ago you were acting all clueless.

But you even remember she was in the year above us.

“The name sounds a little familiar.”

Roderick said honestly. He didn’t remember what she looked

like, but it seemed like Madeleine had been bullied by her back

then.

No, that’s not the point.

The point is, she suspects the person in his heart was Leona!

?

Roderick laughed out of exasperation and patted Madeleine’s

little noggin.

“What are you doing!”

Chapter 226

Madeleine huffily pushed his hand away.

“To see what nonsense you’ve got in there.”

“Roderick!”

Roderick held back a laugh, and seeing she was getting a little

angry, he finally said seriously, “No more jokes. I’ll explain it to

you properly.”

Although Madeleine was angry, she still sat obediently to listen

to him.

That was one good thing about her. Ever since she was little,

even if someone got her really mad, as long as they were willing

to talk, she could control her emotions and listen patiently.

Madeleine had a fiery temper, but she wasn’t the type to

explode at the slightest provocation.

“There was never anything between me and Leona. I never liked

her, I barely even knew her. Did you hear something from

someone?”

“Do I need to hear it from anyone? It was all over school back

then. Leona was the ‘goddess‘ of the year above us.”

Chapter 226

Roderick heard the jealousy in her voice and actually chuckled

lightly.

He tapped the tip of Madeleine’s nose.

“I don’t know about the year above us, I just know the goddess

of our year was you. A lot of guys were after you.”

“Hmph.”

Madeleine pouted smugly but couldn’t help smiling, pursing her

lips to blow a stray strand of hair from her forehead.

“That’s not wrong. I was pretty popular back then. My dad was

so worried I’d run off with some punk that he personally picked

me up from school every day for a while.”

After saying that, she frowned strangely. “Huh, it was only for a

little while, though. He stopped coming after that. Why?”

Roderick thought for a moment, then said darkly.

“That was probably because I told your dad I’d keep an eye on

you, and if you dared to date anyone, I’d break your legs for

him.”

Madeleine: …
