waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Now that the main culprit was gone , and with his parents getting along well , his symptoms would naturally get better . " Mommy , can it be just the two of us tonight ? " Madeleine didn't get it at first , looking up at Kevin with an amused expression . " Kev , who taught you about ' a world for two ' ? " " I read it in a book . " Kevin was dead serious . " A man and a woman , alone together , and it's really sweet . That means they're in a world for two . Isn't that us ? " Madeleine was stunned by the little guy's logic , and it took her a moment before she burst out laughing .

" Oh , Kev , you ... hahahaha , you're just too cute . " Kevin blinked in confusion . Was he wrong ? But that's what the book said . Chapter 224 He had even double - checked it himself . For the past two days , he had been alone with his mom . She would take him shopping and out to play , and they were very sweet together . If this wasn't a world for two , then what was ? " Mommy , was I wrong ? " " Right , right , whatever my Maddie says is right . " She ruffled the little guy's hair , glanced at the time , and said , " We're going to pick up Aunt Minerva soon , so no world for two today .

" " Aww ... " Kevin looked a little disappointed . " Kev , you can't be like that . Aunt Minerva is a guest , and we have to fulfill our host's duties , understand ? " Kevin nodded obediently , but after thinking for a moment , he couldn't help but look up . " Mommy , what are host's duties ? " Chapter 224 Madeleine : ... Uh , Kev was too young , so it was normal for him not to understand some phrases . After patiently explaining , Madeleine told Kevin that Aunt Minerva would be staying here for the next two days .

He looked even more disappointed , but remembering what his mom said about fulfilling their host's duties , he forced a smile . The reason Minerva was staying at Madeleine's house for a few days was simple . She had a competition next week and needed to train intensively for a few days . The dance studio at her school had to be rented by the hour and wasn't as big as the one at Madeleine's house , so she came over . With her competition coming up , Madeleine was nervous too , and she practiced with her whenever she had free time . " I'm so nervous , Madeleine .

" Minerva collapsed on the floor , exhausted , her forehead covered in sweat . Chapter 224 Madeleine lay down with her , and the two of them stared at the ceiling . " What's there to be nervous about ? I've been in so many competitions , and I never got nervous . " " Really ? 三 . Minerva turned her head , a look of surprise on her face . Madeleine chuckled . " Of course I'm kidding . How could I not be nervous ? But being nervous doesn't help . Once you're on stage , you can only dance your best when you're natural and relaxed .

" Minerva thought about it and nodded , feeling that Madeleine had a point . After a moment , she asked again , " Madeleine , you've been in so many competitions , which one left the deepest impression on you ? " " The deepest impression ... " Madeleine closed her eyes and thought for a moment . " It was probably a competition during my sophomore year of Chapter 224 high school . " " Why was it so memorable ? Did you not perform well ? " Madeleine shook her head .

" No , I practiced day and night for a long time , won first place , and successfully represented the city in the national competition ." Hearing this , Minerva's eyes lit up . She rolled over , propping herself up on her elbows to look at Madeleine with admiration . " Wow , Madeleine , you're amazing ! The dance you did that day must have been incredible for you to remember it for so long ! " Madeleine smiled but didn't say anything . " What about the national competition later ? How did you do in the nationals ? " Madeleine was silent , not saying a word .

She didn't want to tell Minerva about it , how she was framed for her family bribing their way to first place . The whole thing hit her pretty hard . A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is Chapter 224 putting on its shoes . She was so stressed she got a fever and didn't even compete in the nationals . Especially ... when she saw Roderick comforting her rival , Leona Harmon . That incident is still a sore spot for her , and sometimes Madeleine wants to ask Roderick about it . But then she'd reconsider .

Maybe Roderick didn't know the situation back then : He probably thought Leona was the victim , so it was understandable for him to comfort her . After all , their relationship wasn't that strong back then ... " Sigh ... let's not talk about this anymore ." Madeleine sat up and patted Minerva's arm . " Let's go again . The competition is the day after tomorrow . You have to use every single second to practice these next few days . I'll be here with you .
