The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 224

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash ` 224

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? 

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.”
