A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 370

Everly felt a pain in her foot after finishing her words. She didn't know which acupoint on her foot Maverick pressed, but she was almost out of her sense because of the agony.

"You!"

"This acupoint represents your sleeping quality. I just pressed it with normal strength, but you felt so much pain. It meant that your quality of sleep is not good and you always feel anxious and afraid of cold."

The expression of Maverick was too serious and the symptoms he said were almost the same as hers. He seemed like a real doctor with the serious expression and the generic term. All he lacked was only a doctor's coat.

Everly didn't know how to retort him, so she could only swallow back the question of whether he did it deliberately or not.

Maverick did not torture her feet anymore since she was obedient, and he turned to relax her legs.

However, Dr. Maverick was a little absent-minded at this time as he was thinking that Everly did not need to miss him indeed because she would definitely be together with him. She did not need to miss him as she would see him all the time.

He couldn't speak his thought out of course as the injured little beast would have thoughts of rebelling. She would go against him specifically whatever he was doing. She would talk back to him even if it was not her true thought. It was the same as a rebellious child who went against adults to consume his excess energy.

However, it was unknown if Everly, the over-aged young girl, was being proud or was trying to attract the attention of others.

Everly's cold eyes sparkled at his appearance just now, as if she was surprised.

But it turned into familiar indifference before Maverick could take a closer look. She refused everyone outside by a high wall made of thick ice, which also trapped her inside.

Today was a very special day as Parrish was still lying in the ward and would need treatment at any time. No one could sleep at such a night.

How could Maverick leave at such a critical time? Would he be a man if he left behind what he was responsible for and left the woman he loved to suffer?

He just pretended to leave.

Everly needed time to ease her emotions. But if she was really left here alone, Maverick knew that they would definitely be estranged more and more.

If a woman told you to leave, what she really meant was to ask you to stay. If you left obediently, then you really didn't know what was good for her. Although Maverick had never been in a relationship, something was self-taught just like sex.

It was really not easy to judge whether to retreat or advance. Maverick felt that it was intractable.

"How do you feel? Are you feeling better?" Maverick raised his head to look at Everly who was looking down, but she moved away immediately and looked in the direction of the corner. Was there really nothing wrong? She was obviously concealing her emotion.

"Alright, thank you," Everly said emotionlessly.

Maverick smiled, but it seemed that she didn't appreciate his kindness. She turned her face to the other side awkwardly and withdrew her legs to her safety range by leaning them to the chair closely as soon as they were free.

In short, she was even more uncomfortable than him.

Isn't it awkward?

Anyhow, Maverick felt uncomfortable just by looking at her posture.

It was three o'clock in the morning, and it was just half-past the time.

Maverick stood up but did not sit next to Everly. Instead, he walked to the window so that he was a distance away from her.

This distance was very safe. Everly stared at him for a while and found that Maverick had no intention to turn back, so she changed her posture to a more comfortable one quietly.

Anyway, Maverick was companying her in another sense.

No matter what enmity was between them, they had once loved each other deeply and they still loved each other even now.

However, love did not mean that they could be together.
