A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 369

Everly stayed up until now. She was very tired and found nothing wrong. But she bumped into Maverick again. Didn't he come here on purpose?

Maverick could use this excuse to appear in her life, especially when Edmond was taken home. How clever!

Everly glared at Maverick.

Maverick seemed to know what Everly was going to say. He said with ease, "I know you don't want to see me. I don't deliberately come here. I come here to see the doctor too. You can leave now. When I go to your house and see Edmond in the future, you can also leave. It is up to you, Everly."

Maverick's voice was gentle and loving. But Everly was still angry. Maverick was good at reasoning. He always had no fault.

Parrish was inside. Where else could Everly go?

Everly couldn't go anywhere else. She could only stay here and look after Parrish.

Maverick knew it very well. Everly couldn't say anything.

Everly now recognized why Maverick agreed to her request so quickly. Maverick would achieve his goal by all means.

Everly was educated to be a lady since she was a child. She was well educated and didn't know how to scold others. Even if she was extremely angry, she could only call Maverick a bastard or something like that. This could not hurt Maverick at all.

So, Everly kept silent.

Maverick saw that Everly pretended to be indifferent. But he could tell that she was suppressing her anger from the small changes in her expression.

Maverick stopped talking.

In the latter half of the night, the equipment in the ICU was still working, marking the ups and downs of the heartbeat.

If it turned into a straight line, it meant that the patient died. Life was just like the line. There were always ups and downs.

Everly suddenly thought of the words. It had been a long time since the last time she thought of Jack. Jack was a doctor and was usually introvertive. However, he became more talkative at work. He combined his experience with medical knowledge and told it to Everly. It was interesting but full of philosophy.

Everly did not dislike Jack. She accepted his suggestion to fake the marriage because Jack was kind. He was just like Parrish. Only now did Everly realize this.

Jack had already passed away and Everly did not want to lose Parrish.

"Take a seat."

Maverick suddenly said. He was afraid that Everly would refuse, so he grabbed her elbow and took her to the chair next to him.

Everly didn't feel tired while standing. But when she sat down, she was overwhelmed by the pain and cried out.

Everly specially chose high heels for the afternoon tea. It was late at night and she had stood for such a long time. How torturous!

But Everly was weak. She couldn't even move a single finger. She just leaned against the chair and looked quietly into the ICU, as if the pain would be relieved in this way.

Everly's legs were numb and rigid. Someone rubbed Everly's legs gently. It was comfortable and Everly subconsciously straightened her legs. Then she realized that something was wrong.

Maverick knelt down on one leg, lifted Everly's leg and rubbed it.
