Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127

Madeleine watched him, wanting to speak but holding back.

After a brief silence, Kevin put down his glass and was the first

to speak.

“Mom, do you guys suspect Mr. Osborn is a bad person?”

Madeleine was surprised by the child’s intelligence but couldn’t

bear to explain the situation to him. For a moment, she was

hesitant and conflicted, not knowing how to begin.

She forced a smile. “Why do you say that?”

“Because from yesterday to today, a lot of people have come to

ask me what Mr. Osborn has said to me recently, and they also

asked if he gave me anything to eat.”

As Kevin spoke, he lowered his head, the emotions in his eyes

hidden from view.

Madeleine felt uneasy..

For a child, Nanette was the psychologist he had trusted since he was little, someone he could share his thoughts and secrets

Chapter 127

with.

To tell him now that the person he had always trusted was a

bad person.

Wouldn’t that be too cruel for a little boy?

At this thought, Madeleine felt a sharp pain grip her heart.

“Maddie, if you don’t think Mr. Osborn is a bad person, Mommy

won’t ask you anymore, we…”

“That’s not it, Mom.”

Kevin looked up, his gaze firm as he looked at Madeleine.

“I trust you, Mom. Since you think there’s a problem with Mr.

Osborn, then there must be a problem. It’s just… it’s just that I

didn’t notice anything, and that makes me feel really

uncomfortable.”

Madeleine’s mouth fell open in surprise, and her eyes instantly

grew warm.

So this was the reason the child felt uncomfortable?

He was still too young to know the feeling of guilt, so when he couldn’t answer everyone’s questions, he felt this discomfort.

It wasn’t because he trusted Mr. Osborn that he felt

uncomfortable…

It was because he trusted his mom so much that he felt guilty…

“Kev…” Madeleine’s voice choked up as she reached out, pulling

the little guy’s shoulders and letting him lean into her embrace.

Blood is thicker than water. For the first time, she truly felt the

power of that phrase.

So there really was someone who could trust her

unconditionally and without reservation.

She squeezed Kevin’s small hand, took a deep breath, and said,

“It’s not your fault. You don’t have to feel uncomfortable.

Maddie, Mommy won’t let anyone hurt you.”

“I won’t let anyone hurt Mommy, either.”

Kevin looked up, “Mr. Osborn is hurting Mommy, right?”

Before Madeleine could speak, Kevin continued:

“Mr. Osborn has been talking to me about Dad and Mom lately.

I can tell he’s not happy when he talks about Mom.”

Madeleine was surprised; the little guy was already so good at

Chapter 127

reading people.

In truth, Kevin wasn’t particularly observant; he just instinctively

paid close attention whenever his mom was mentioned.

He didn’t want anyone to dislike his mom.

“Mommy, I don’t want Mr. Osborn to keep doing bad things.

What should I do? I’m so scared.”

As he spoke, he hugged Madeleine tightly, as if he were afraid

she would disappear.

Madeleine hesitated, struggling for a long moment before

finally speaking, “Kev, if there was a way… it might help you

remember some of the bad things Mr. Osborn did, but it would

be a little painful. Would you be will-”

“I’ll do it!”

Before Madeleine could finish asking, Kevin immediately

agreed.

He didn’t even know what it involved. The mere thought of

being able to help his mom, of stopping others from hurting her,

was enough for him to agree without a second thought.

He didn’t care about anything else.

The next morning, Kevin was the first to wake up.

He saw his mom and dad sleeping on either side of him and

smiled happily.

Tiptoeing out of bed, Kevin planted a loud kiss on his mom’s

cheek.

After the kiss, feeling it wasn’t enough, he kissed her other

cheek.

As he was giggling to himself, he felt a chill behind him. He

turned his head to find his dad had opened his eyes at some

point.

Kevin figured his dad must be jealous, so he leaned over and

gave him a kiss too.

Roderick didn’t say anything. He propped himself up, then

leaned in and placed a kiss on Madeleine’s lips.

After the kiss, he didn’t forget to shoot a triumphant glance at

the little guy.

It was a good thing Madeleine was still asleep. If she had

Chapter 127

opened her eyes and seen how childish the father and son were

being, she would have been speechless.

Madeleine hadn’t slept well. According to Mariah, they only had

two days to find evidence, and today was the last day.

If Nanette got the upper hand again and sued her for intentional injury, things would get very complicated.
