The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 133

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 133

Chapter 133 

Madeleine couldn’t help but roll her eyes. 

In the past, she would have thought Ricki was definitely teasing 

her, deliberately trying to annoy her. 

Now that she knew he was saying these things sincerely 

because he liked her, Madeleine felt flustered and 

embarrassed, not knowing what to do for a moment. 

No, who likes someone using such a cheap way to show it 

“Don’t give me that.” 

She pushed against his chest, but he only held her tighter. 

“Come on, tell me. What exactly did you say to Nanette?” 

Roderick chuckled, his fingers tracing her skin through the thin 

fabric of her shirt, making Madeleine shiver. 

“You really want to know?” 

Madeleine shrank back a little and nodded. 

Roderick smiled. “I had Mariah dig up her entire family history

and told her that if she didn’t write it, what’s waiting for her 

would be a lot worse than just jail time and paying damages.” 

“You threatened her? 

That’s illegal…” 

“It’s called a reasonable negotiation.“, 

Roderick said nonchalantly, twirling a strand of her hair around 

his finger. “Besides, so what if it is illegal?” 

For Madeleine, he would risk anything. 

Roderick chuckled again. “I’m kidding. We’re law–abiding 

citizens. For those slaps you gave her, we’ll pay the medical 

bills. How much was it again?” 

He picked up his phone and glanced at the message from 

Mariah. 

“Seventy–six fifty–two.” 

Madeleine almost choked on her own spit and couldn’t help but 

burst out laughing. 

Perfect. That was so Ricki.

Madeleine grinned, then immediately dug her own grave with 

her next words: 

“Since you helped me so much, shouldn’t I thank you properly?” 

At her words, she saw Roderick’s eyes land on her, filled with 

surprise and a hint of unreadable desire. 

Madeleine, who had been a little chilly with her bare legs and 

was wrapped in a blanket on the sofa, now felt the temperature 

rising, her whole body growing hot. 

Just being enveloped by his gaze, she started to feel 

uncomfortable all over, shifting her body uneasily. 

“Why are you looking at me like that?” 

Madeleine’s voice was timid, her nervousness obvious. 

Roderick mischievously leaned in closer, his eyes looking down 

at her, forcing her to tilt her head up slightly. 

“What do you think?” 

He raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Didn’t you say you wanted to 

thank me? I’m waiting.” 

Madeleine shrank back, not daring to meet his gaze.

She felt that Roderick looked a little scary right now, that she’d 

be devoured if their eyes met. 

“I just haven’t figured out how to thank you yet… How about I 

buy you a gift? 

I remember you really liked those figurines when you were a kid, 

right?” 

As Madeleine spoke, she squirmed, trying to get out of 

Roderick’s arms. 

But that squirming only made things worse. Roderick’s gaze on 

her deepened, and several veins popped out on his neck. 

“Madeleine, don’t move.” 

The hoarse voice came, and Madeleine immediately froze as if 

under a spell, not daring to move. 

She sat like a statue, her muscles tense, truly not moving at all. 

Roderick was amused by her, looking speechless. 

“Go ahead and move.” 

Madeleine wanted to cry but had no tears.

Should she move or not? Her whole body was so tense it was 

uncomfortable. 

Seeing her like this, Roderick felt a little bad. After all, she was 

missing her memories of the last few years. What if he scared 

her by pushing her forward like this? 

Take it slow, step by step. 

Roderick was just about to let her go, about to tell Madeleine to 

get off him. 

The person on him, for some reason, reached out and wrapped 

her arms around his neck. 

Roderick looked astonished. 

What’s gotten into her? 

Madeleine was so nervous she was about to explode. She 

didn’t dare look Roderick in the eye, so she looked down, shyly 

watching his lips. 

She wasn’t an idiot; of course she could hear the subtext in 

what Roderick was saying to her. 

Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it would leap out of her

chest, and her fingertips were trembling slightly. Madeleine held 

her breath, finally gathered her courage, leaned up, and gently 

pressed her lips to Roderick’s. 

His lips were warmer than she had imagined, with a faint scent 

of coffee. 

Madeleine had made the coffee for him. They were Ethiopian 

beans from Bradley. When she was grinding them, she’d 

glanced at the description, which mentioned flavors of 

magnolia, citrus, pineapple, and mango. 

After brewing it, Madeleine had taken a sip herself. It was bitter 

and astringent; she couldn’t really taste those flavors. 

But now, from Roderick’s mouth, she thought she could taste 

them. 

That hint of sweet floral and fruity aroma, as if laced with 

alcohol, made her feel intoxicated, lost.
