Waking up with my nemesis baby novel Chapter 238

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

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.

“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.”

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.”

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.
