A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 358

This was not the answer that Everly wanted. Although it seemed Maverick was hiding the truth, he cared for Everly so sincerely and Everly could feel his loving care when she looked into his eyes. Everly felt that it would hurt Maverick if she didn't accept him.

Everly nodded, "Alright. I know you care about me. I went all out drinking yesterday also because you were there. Maverick, I am delighted, truly."

Everly lowered her voice and leaned into Maverick's arms. A familiar atmosphere surrounded her. Her cheeks rubbed against his chest and she did not speak. She felt that everything was perfect and nothing worried her.

At that moment, Everly's heart was filled with love. She became tender as her heart got melted in love.

Maverick felt her trust and dependence on him. When she showed such cutesy manners, she was so obedient and lovely, just like a child.

No matter how Everly looked, Maverick liked her.

"You are happy and satisfied now," Maverick could not help complaining, "but what about me?"

For a moment, Everly did not realize, or rather, she could not keep up with Maverick's thoughts. It was clear that they were talking about a very serious matter, how could he end up thinking something erotic.

Being pinned on the bed by Maverick, Everly only had time to let out a low cry. She felt her nose was lightly bitten, and then she heard the voice from above, "Save your energy. You'll need it later."

Immediately, Everly flushed as if she was in flames but her body was still not so fervent. Suddenly she was pulled up by a mighty hand then her mind went blank. She was now completely dominated by Maverick and couldn't think anything else.

By the time Everly woke up, it was already noon.

Everly found that Kailey was not at home.

"Your mother went out?"

"Yes. I guess she's got her own things to do." Maverick did not take it too seriously. Anyway, Kailey got people protecting her. As long as she was safe, he would not interfere with her own business.

Although Maverick said it in a casual tone, Everly was not fooled. Everly thought the reason that Kailey went outside was that Kailey didn't want to see her and Maverick after the fight last night, but she couldn't ask it forthrightly.

Although she and Maverick were lovers—the most intimate one to each other. When Maverick tried to hide something in a kind heart, she would better pretend to know nothing about it and accept his kindness so everyone would be relaxed.

Everly knew that if she made everything clear, Maverick would be in a dilemma. Maybe she could be pleasant for a moment, but she would bring troubles to Maverick. It was not easy to balance the relationship between one's mother and lover.

This was why there was such an abstruse saying-it was hard to pretend to be ignorant. It was a saying full of philosophy and worldly wisdom. Everly did not understand it before. Shouldn't people always keep clear-headed? But after experiencing it, she realized that sometimes being not so clear-headed could leave more space for unpredictable needs, and that distance made hearts grow fonder.

Even if Everly asked directly, Maverick would not give her the right answer. She knew it because she understood that Maverick was unwilling to worry her.

After lunch, Maverick was about to go to the company.

Just as he was about to leave, an uninvited guest arrived.

Levi rarely came to Maverick's villa. He knew that here was Maverick's territory and guests were not welcomed, but today he came here to see Kailey.

With a gloomy face, Levi kept looking around unabashedly. But he said, "I heard that Zane is leaving the company and has handed over his resignation letter."

Levi stood in the center of the living room, gazing at the second floor.

Could it be that she was hiding on the second floor?
