Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83

Her gaze secretly darted to the drop of water on Roderick’s lips,

and her face turned even redder.

“I happened to be thirsty, and there was no water to drink.”

“Isn’t the water cooler right over there!”

Madeleine pointed to the corner.

Roderick didn’t even look, replying casually, “Kirsten hasn’t

replaced the water inside.”

After speaking, he muttered while wiping his sweat with a towel,

“I’ll have to go talk to Kirsten about it later.”

Madeleine gritted her teeth, reasonably suspecting that this guy

was doing it on purpose.

Kirsten is so thorough. How could she possibly make a mistake

like that?

Oh well, for the sake of that great body of his, I’ll forgive him.

Madeleine’s appraising gaze was caught by Roderick. He

suddenly leaned in close, “What are you looking at?”

(Extra updates today!

You can all read them together later~ To all my darlings who’ve

made it this far, please give me a rating on the main page, love

you all (3) Dr?

The sudden closeness caught Madeleine off guard. She

flinched and stammered, “It’s nothing, just… muscles… you

know.”

After saying it, Madeleine almost bit her tongue off.

Too honest. How could I have just blurted that out?

Roderick’s lips curved, his goal achieved.

He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Want to train?”

“Uh–huh!”

Madeleine’s eyes sparkled. Her current figure, while not fat, was

at best slender, not what you’d call toned.

What she envied most was that powerful, toned physique.

If she could dance and also lift some weights, that would be

even better.

After Ricki asked, she nodded eagerly, staring at him and telling

him to train with her.

But then the guy didn’t follow up.

Wait, what does he mean by that?

He’s baiting me.

Is he waiting for me to beg him?

Madeleine stared at Roderick’s face. That smug look, no doubt

about it.

Tch, she wasn’t going to indulge him.

Madeleine took out her phone and opened a local services

super–app like Yelp. “Let me see if I can find a handsome,

muscular male trainer or something.”

Roderick’s smugness instantly deflated, and his face fell.

He quickly snatched the phone away.

“A waste of money.”

Chapter 83

“A waste of money?”

He didn’t even blink when he sent over 8 million dollars, but

hiring a fitness trainer is a waste of money?

To prevent Madeleine from getting any more ideas, Roderick

turned and placed the phone on the top crossbar of the power

rack behind him.

The crossbar was over two meters high; Madeleine probably

couldn’t reach it even on her tiptoes. Safe.

“Frugality is a great traditional virtue of the people of our nation.

I can just teach you.”

Roderick turned, grabbed a disinfectant wipe to clean the lat

pulldown machine, the upward curve of his lips harder to

suppress than an AK.

Madeleine snickered.

Hmph, he really thought she would beg him?

No way. She won this round!

Roderick had been working out for years and was familiar with

all sorts of theory and practical knowledge, so guiding

Chapter 83

Madeleine wasn’t difficult for him.

But Madeleine was a beginner. Understanding all the technical

terms and muscle engagement stances Roderick talked about

was useless; when it came to actually doing it, she just couldn’t

find the right muscle to engage.

“This doesn’t feel right…”

Just as she finished muttering, Roderick suddenly leaned over,

his broad chest almost pressing against her back.

His warm palm slid down her arm to her shoulder blade, his

fingertips pressing lightly.

“Engage here. Don’t compensate with your arms.”

He was so close that his breath brushed against Madeleine’s

ear as he spoke, and she could even feel the warmth radiating

from behind her.

“Relax your muscles first, don’t be so tense. Slowly pull down,

feel the muscle contract…”
