waking up with my nemesis' baby novel

Chapter 238 " I wish my kid could be this thoughtful . " " Ugh , comparisons are the worst . " ... Madeleine took a deep breath and looked nervously at Kevin . He was already sitting at the piano , his eyes filled with pride and anticipation . " Mom , you look so beautiful . " " Thank you , sweetie . " " You can do it , Mom . " " Okay , you can do it too , sweetie . " Standing in the center of the stage , the spotlight focused on Madeleine as the clear sound of the piano began .

Under the spotlight , it was as if Madeleine shed all the daily shells of being a mother , daughter , and wife , returning to the Chapter 238 sprite born purely for dance . She closed her eyes , took a deep breath , and when she opened them again , they held only a reverence for art and a flame ignited by her loved ones . Madeleine knew this piece all too well ; it was a dance she had choreographed herself , and her favorite one . When did Kev get this idea ? Was it when he saw me practicing this dance over and over in the studio ? This kid ...

Thanks to her recent practice , Madeleine's movements were executed beautifully . As the last key was pressed , Madeleine landed in a beautiful pose , standing steadily in the center of the stage . Right now , she looked just like a proud swan . The audience immediately erupted in thunderous applause . Harold and Clarissa held up their cameras and phones , unable to stop their tears . Chapter 238 " Harold , I feel like I'm seeing our daughter as a little girl again . " " Me too . " At that moment , standing on the stage , Madeleine was also filled with a mix of emotions .

She bowed to the audience , and the parents before her seemed to merge with the audiences she saw at competitions in the past . Madeleine gave a contented smile , her eyes glistening with tears . She walked over to take her son's hand , and the two of them , one big and one small , bowed together to end the performance . Some of my frustration seemed to blow away with the wind ... On the way back , Madeleine watched the video her family took of her over and over again . " Oh , that turn wasn't handled very well ." " Here , it would've been better if I'd lifted my leg a little higher .

" Chapter 238 Kevin frowned as he listened to his mom's harsh criticism of herself . " Mommy , that's not true . " He said seriously , " You danced really well . A lot of my classmates said they want to learn ballet after watching you ." " Thank you , my sweetie . Your piano playing is amazing too . Have you been practicing in secret ? " The little guy's cheeks flushed , and he nodded with a smile . No wonder the little guy had been so secretive about his piano practice lately . Every time Madeleine was around , he'd find an excuse to stop . So he didn't want me to find out . " And you ?

" Madeleine turned her head with a smile to look at Roderick . " You lied to me about some company documents , but it was actually my dance costume . Ricki , when did you prepare this ? " " Mommy , I was the one who asked Dad . " Chapter 238 Kevin , worried his parents would fight again because of him , quickly grabbed her hand . " I told Dad I wanted to give you a surprise , and Dad said he would help me . " Madeleine's heart warmed as she listened . " Oh , you two ... what am I supposed to say ? " Her eyes reddened again , her emotions surging , almost uncontrollably .

Roderick reached out and caressed her cheek . " Are you happy ? " " I'm happy . " " As long as you're happy . Being happy means what my son and I did wasn't for nothing ." Making Madeleine happy ... that's enough . Madeleine even became a little famous because of this dance . Her dance video was posted by the kindergarten's official account and many parents , gaining a wave of popularity . Chapter 238 Soon , people dug up videos of Madeleine's competitions and award records from ten years ago .

Professional dancers in the industry even came forward , saying Madeleine's movements were very standard . Although it was clear she hadn't danced in years , her fundamentals hadn't faded much . Seeing this information online , Leona was a bit stunned . She was curled up on the sofa in a five - star hotel suite , opening the video of Madeleine's dance at the arts festival once again . " Heh ... " Leona chuckled . " What do you all know . " " If she hadn't wasted these past few years , how could she only dance like this ? " " Madeleine , is this what you wanted ?

" " Someone like you isn't worthy of being my rival back then . " Taking a deep breath , Leona took out her phone and made a call . Chapter 238 " Hello ? Mr. Osborn , yes , I contacted you the other day wanting to know the contact information for the family of that contestant , Minerva ... Yes , yes , she's an acquaintance of mine .
