A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 386

The smell of sex floated in the air. Even though it was faint, Sophia still caught it.

She felt disgusted. She allured Maverick on the bed, but he was not interested. He was not asexual at all. She was just not the woman who could arouse him.

Maverick sat on the sofa. The man who just enjoyed good sex had a different kind of charm in his movement. He took out a box of cigarettes, pulled out a cigarette between his slender fingers, and then looked up at Sofia. "You've wet the ground."

Maverick didn't even glance at her good figure. Sophia's face darkened. Water dripped down from her body and there appeared a splash near her feet. Maverick didn't like her after all, so he was picky about these minor details.

The temptation turned to embarrassment.

Sofia had to wrap herself up with a bath towel. There was no need to show her sexy figure if the man did not appreciate it.

"Is this how you treat someone who saved you?" Sofia bent to pick up a cigarette, putting away her feminine charm and revealing a cold assassinate face. "If it weren't for me, I'm afraid you would be dead right now, let alone sleeping with your woman here."

"Who taught you to be so confident?" Maverick stopped smoking.

Sofia puffed out some smoke. She did not realize that Maverick was mocking her. "Who taught me? I learned myself."

Maverick wanted to ignore her. His face behind the smoke became colder. Finishing smoking a cigarette, he ruthlessly put it out in the ashtray. "Do you have any other mission ordered by Aonzo?"

Maverick was smart. Sofia finally understood his mysterious attraction. The charm of wisdom was super sexy.

Sofia puffed at the cigarette. "Why can't I work for someone else, like Amor?"

"If you worked for Amor, I wouldn't have been treated like this."

In the beginning, Maverick thought that Sofia was Pira's friend. But when Pira fired his gun, Sofia suddenly appeared, and Pira's shot missed. The bullet narrowly escaped Maverick's cheek and landed near his feet. He was so close to death at the moment.

Pira's gun dropped at the same time. Sophia didn't even give him a chance to speak. She smashed Pira's neck and knocked him out.

Maverick grasped the opportunity.

Sofia thought of what happened and felt slightly upset. At that time, the situation was urgent. After the pistol fell to the ground, Maverick was one step ahead of her.

Maverick got the gun and the freedom.

All of this happened too quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.

Sofia even suspected that Maverick deliberately provoked Pira. It was dangerous, but Maverick succeeded in grabbing the opportunity.

Sofia was smart enough not to fight with Maverick. Maverick was frightening enough when unarmed, not to mention holding a weapon.

Anyway, the mission this time was to protect Pira and prevent him from doing anything stupid. The rest was not her worry.

Sofia didn't answer Maverick's question. Instead, she asked him, "What are you going to do?"

"Do I need to report to you?"

They were just temporary partners, not friends.

To outsiders, Maverick was filled with a sense of alienation.

Sophia recalled how Everly looked when she left. She was graceful and gentle, like a good mother when she spoke to the child. The luster on her face showed that she was favored and adored.

In any case, she couldn't see it. She pursed her lips. "I'm really sad for Pira. Are you going to make her the scapegoat?"

There was no pity on Sofia's face but a hint of schadenfreude.

"She'll be held here for a couple of days." Although Maverick was annoyed about being kidnapped, the biggest hidden threat to him disappeared. Fortunately, Pira didn't intend to harm him. If it were her two brothers in the Kamo family, he was very likely to die, let alone kiss Everly.

Sofia raised her eyebrows.

There was still a trace of humanity on Maverick. When he got the gun, he chose not to shoot them.

It was rare for a well-trained professional killer to be merciful.

How could such a man not be charming?
