waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

" He was an absolute angel . The young master ate dinner by himself , finished every last grain of his risotto , and even took his own bath . When I went to check on him , he was already in bed reading a book . " Roderick frowned , " His mom and I went out without him , and he didn't make a fuss or ask anything ? " " Nope . " ။ Roderick's frown deepened . Kevin was more well - behaved than other kids , but never this good . This was actually similar to how he acted a couple of years ago when his mental state was really unstable . " I understand , Kirsten . You should get some rest .

Don't wake up so early tomorrow , I'll have breakfast delivered . " " It's no trouble , really . I don't need much sleep at my age . Let me make it , I know your tastes best . " Chapter 118 Ever since Madeleine returned to normal , Kirsten had been much happier coming to work . That night , Madeleine clung to Roderick and wouldn't let go . No , that's not right . It was Roderick's hair . She was also mumbling something , like " don't lose the little bunny I made ... " Kirsten's Herbal Hangover Remedy Soup really worked .

Madeleine woke up the next morning feeling refreshed , with no discomfort at all . Of course , she had completely forgotten everything that happened after she got drunk last night . She only remembered dancing with Roderick , getting the ring , and the candlelight dinner . While brushing her teeth , she held up her hand to look at the wedding ring and grinned foolishly for a long time . After breakfast , Roderick mentioned he'd made an appointment with a new psychologist and was planning to take Kevin to see them today .

Chapter 118 That's when Madeleine remembered that Kev had severe psychological trauma . This was a serious matter that couldn't be ignored . The new doctor was Mr. Eleanor , whom Roderick had found himself . He was a top authority in the field of child psychology . At Mr. Eleanor's office , he first spoke with Madeleine and Roderick privately to get a general idea of the child's situation . Mr. Eleanor frowned , " The child has seen a psychologist before ? Why the change ? Therapy is a process . If a trusting relationship has been built , switching therapists is generally not recommended .

" Madeleine was at a loss for words , thinking about what Nanette Clark had told her . Beside her , Roderick said in a cold voice , " Her therapy showed some results initially , but if it continued , it could have destroyed my family ." Mr. Eleanor was very professional and just gave a polite nod , realizing this might be a private matter . Chapter 118 He then had the nurse bring the boy in . Kevin walked quietly into the office , sat down properly in a chair , placed his hands on his knees , and kept his back perfectly straight .

Madeleine and Roderick couldn't stay in the office , so a nurse led them to the room next door , where a large screen was set up for them to observe the boy . " Hello , Kevin . " Mr. Eleanor greeted him with a smile , " Can I call you Kev ? " The little guy nodded . " You can . " After that , Mr. Eleanor didn't ask Kevin too many questions , but instead just chatted with him on his level for a while . Madeleine and Roderick weren't experts , so they couldn't make anything of it . The nurse at their side remarked , " This kid is a little too well- behaved . " Well - behaved .

Roderick's eye twitched . He thought about what Kirsten had Chapter 118 said last night and felt that something wasn't right . Too well - behaved . Unnaturally so . After just over ten minutes of chatting , Mr. Eleanor had the nurse take the boy to the play area and called the parents back in to talk . " Based on the boy's behavior just now , there are indeed some issues worth our attention . Of course , I don't have a deep enough understanding yet , so I can't be completely sure . " Madeleine's fingers unconsciously tightened around the hem of her clothes .

" His condition was quite serious before . Could it be coming back ? " Mr. Eleanor was silent for a moment . " The manifestation of psychological issues in children is often complex . Kevin's current condition is quite consistent with Emotional Suppression . He can accurately identify emotions , but he deliberately suppresses his true feelings , especially negative ones . " He took out a drawing Kevin had just made . Mr. Eleanor had told him to draw whatever he wanted in just five minutes , and Chapter 118 he had immediately drawn a family of three .

The time was limited , so the lines were rushed , but you could tell the order he drew them in was mother , father , and finally , himself . " It's clear the boy cares a great deal about his mother . " Madeleine felt a sting in her nose and nodded . " There's a concept in psychology called pseudo - adaptation . It's when a child forcibly suppresses their true self to adapt to their environment . In the long run , this can lead to more serious problems , like emotional apathy or depression .
