Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 236

Chapter 236

Owen’s implication was clear: he was definitely going.

“Three or four people?”

Mrs. Miller frowned and started counting on her fingers. “Well,

for us… Maddie and Roderick, plus the two of us, that’s already

four. And you guys…”

Her gaze toward Harold and Clarissa held a clear hint: ‘Spots

are limited.‘

Clarissa was immediately displeased.

“Hey now, you can’t say that. Kevin is the apple of the Mosley

family’s eye. This is the first time he’s asked us to come see

him perform. How can I, his grandmother, miss it?”

She turned to Madeleine, her gaze demanding. “Maddie,

wouldn’t you say so?”

Madeleine suddenly felt overwhelmed, feeling like a pie

everyone was trying to get a slice of.

Owen immediately leaned in, putting on what he thought was

his kindest smile:

“Kevin, tell Grandpa, do you want Grandpa to come see you

perform?”

Kevin nodded honestly. “I do.”

Owen immediately shot a triumphant glance at Harold.

Not to be outdone, Harold also leaned in. “And what about

Grandpa?

Grandpa will buy you the biggest Transformer!”

“I want you to come too!”

“Grandma Miller will make you your favorite Strawberry Cream

Mochi, a whole box!”

Kevin’s mouth was practically watering. “Yes, yes, yes!”

“Grandma can go take the best pictures and videos of you, so

you can watch them later.”

Kevin nodded vigorously. “I want videos!”

Wow, the little guy was completely surrounded by tempting

offers, accepting them all without hesitation.

The four of them looked at Madeleine again, their eyes clearly

saying: ‘See? The kid wants all of us to go. You figure

something out.‘

Madeleine rubbed her nose and, after a moment, let out a

strained laugh.

“Um, everyone.”

She paused for a moment, “Actually, I have shares in Kev’s

preschool. If you guys want to go, I can make it happen with just a word, so you don’t have to fight over it like this.”

The moment she said that, a flicker of embarrassment crossed

all four of their faces.

A moment later, the awkwardness vanished, and the four of

them were suddenly all friendly and cheerful.

“Well, you should’ve said so earlier! It would be great for all of

us to go watch Kev’s performance together.”

“Yeah, really. Maddie, that girl, never explains things properly.”

Madeleine: …

Hello?

Chapter 236

Did you guys even give me a chance to speak?

After the business banquet, Mrs. Miller pulled Madeleine aside

for a private word.

“Mrs. Miller, how are you doing? Is it hard on you?”

Madeleine looked at Mrs. Miller’s slightly swollen belly, and

memories of her own pregnancy seemed to quietly resurface.

Mrs. Miller smiled and rubbed her belly.

“It’s actually not bad. They’re taking very good care of me.”

“Then you…” Madeleine paused, choosing her words carefully.

“Have you had any headaches, or felt unwell anywhere else

recently?”

Hearing this, Mrs. Miller looked surprised.

“How did you know?”

Madeleine’s expression changed instantly.

Mrs. Miller quickly smiled and said, “Don’t worry, it wasn’t a big

deal. About a month ago, right after you visited the house, I had

nightmares for a few days.”

“What kind of nightmares?”

“It’s hard to describe. It was like someone in the dream kept

asking me if I really wanted to… to break free?

I can’t remember clearly.”

As she mentioned it, Mrs. Miller pressed her temples and

frowned.

“For several days straight, I lost my appetite completely.

Roderick’s father saw I wasn’t feeling well and was worried, so

he took me to the hospital for a few days.”

“Why didn’t you tell me and Roderick about this?”

Madeleine was alarmed. Mrs. Miller was forty, after all, a classic high–risk pregnancy. Any small issue could be fatal for her and
