Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 332

Chapter 332

Madeleine rushed to the area outside the trauma room and

immediately saw an anxious Gerry waiting.

“Gerry, how is he?!”

Madeleine’s voice was choked with sobs, all her strength

crumbling the moment she saw someone she trusted.

Gerry hurried over:

“Chase, don’t worry. Mr. Livingston is stable for now. It was

acute stomach bleeding, but they’ve got it under control. The

doctors are running more tests to find the cause. He’s in the

ICU for observation right now!”

Hearing the words “stable for now,” Madeleine’s taut nerves

finally eased a bit. Her legs went weak, and she nearly

collapsed, but Gerry caught her just in time.

She leaned against the wall, gasping for breath as tears finally

streamed down her face.

At the other end of the hallway, Fiona found Edward’s room.

Chapter 332

She pushed the door open and saw Edward lying in bed, his

face still pale and his brow furrowed as if he were in a

nightmare, with a worried Abraham standing by his side.

“Fiona!”

Abraham let out a sigh of relief when he saw her.

Fiona looked at Edward, her heart aching with a strange, heavy

feeling she couldn’t name.

“How is he?”

Abraham shook his head. “The test results didn’t show

anything. The doctor said he just needs to be observed.”

Fiona nodded and walked closer to Edward.

“I’ll stay with him for a while.”

Madeleine sat on the bench outside the intensive care unit.

The cold plastic of the bench made her shiver, but it also helped

clear her chaotic thoughts a little.

She took the warm water Gerry handed her, her fingertips cold,

and took a small sip.

Chapter 332

The warm water flowed down her throat, slightly soothing her

tense nerves.

“Gerry.”

Madeleine’s voice was still a bit hoarse, but she was trying to

sound calm.

“What exactly happened?

Roderick has always been healthy, how could he suddenly have a stomach hemorrhage?

Where did he go this afternoon?

Who did he see?”

Gerry looked at Madeleine’s pale but determined face, knowing

he couldn’t hide it, and there was no need to.

He lowered his voice and reported truthfully, “Mr. Livingston

went to a salon at The Dynasty Club this afternoon… Edward

was there too.”

Edward!

The name was like a needle, instantly striking Madeleine’s most

sensitive nerve.

Her hand holding the cup tightened abruptly.

Gerry continued, “Mr. Livingston had me look into Edward’s

movements. It seems he was going to talk to Mr. Carroll about

something, but as for what… I’m not sure either.”

He didn’t need to say more; Madeleine already understood.

Roderick’s sudden vomiting of blood… Edward’s simultaneous

hospitalization…

Connecting all the pieces pointed to a possibility that made

Madeleine’s heart pound with fear.

She remembered the vague things Roderick had told her before

about “narrative control,” “awakening,” and “side effects.”

At the time, she was skeptical, thinking it was all too bizarre.

But these recent events, especially Roderick’s sudden and

aggressive illness, couldn’t be explained by common sense.

Could it be… Roderick forcibly interfered with the “narrative

control” that was supposed to revolve around Edward, and

that’s why he’s suffering the backlash?

Is this the “price” or “side effect” he talked about?

Chapter 332

The thought made Madeleine’s heart feel like it was being

squeezed by an icy hand, the pain making it almost impossible

to breathe.

Was it for her?

To protect her and Mrs. Miller from Edward’s strange “aura,” did

Roderick confront Edward directly, bringing this trouble upon

himself?

Immense heartache, fear, and anger intertwined, nearly

overwhelming Madeleine.

She hated the nonsensical “narrative control,” hated Edward’s
