The very thought startled Everly.
She felt that she might have gone crazy. Ever since she met Maverick, he appeared in her erotic dream. And she even thought her son looked like him now...
She quickly looked away and frowned, trying to calm down.
When the auction was over, she should make things clear.
"What do you think of the pink diamond?" Maverick didn't seem to see her mixed emotions but approached her and asked.
Everly was a little confused.
When the overwhelming masculine charm reached her, she suddenly remembered what happened on that day when she was drugged.
Everly had been hypnotizing herself, so she would never think about what happened that night again.
The memory could be controlled, but it could also break out suddenly.
Every frame and every minute seemed to be clear.
Everly wanted to back away, but other strangers sat next to her.
So Everly could only sit there and her body was stiff. She did not know that her face flushed, and her ears also went red.
Maverick's gaze fell on her small and plump earlobe. It was red, and Maverick swallowed a bit.
Maverick stared at her with desire and said, "Answer my question."
Everly could only say, "It.. it's fine."
"If it were you, would you like it?"
Everly felt touched and excited. The smell of sea salt on Maverick distracted her attention so that she could not hear clearly what he was talking to her.
Diamond?
Did she like it?
It was still a pink diamond...
Everly thought that no woman would refuse it, right?
So she nodded subconsciously, "Yes, I might like it."
"Might?"
"I think it's pretty, but... it seems that the price is very high."
"Anyway, it's for charity. Why not donate some money to those in need?"
Everly was somewhat dazed as she thought, "Is Maverick so caring?"
But whether this "excuse" was true or not, Everly felt a lot better.
To prevent saying something to embarrass him, Everly changed the topic suddenly, "Well, I also think that doing good deeds is right. There will be rewards in the future."
"Rewards? In your opinion, what are the rewards for me?"
Everly didn't reply.
"What?"
Maverick had been whispering in Everly's ear, but if others upped their offer, Maverick would raise Everly's arm to bid.
Everly was distracted by Maverick's question so she didn't know how much the offer was now.
Maverick kept asking her, so she could only answer, "Well, it depends on what you need the most. I feel that everyone has his own pursuit that is hard to get."
"One's own pursuit that is hard to get?"
"Yes."
"Do you have?"
Everly was shocked and said in a low voice, "I have a lot."
"For example?"
Everly was silent for a moment.
The person on the stage suddenly shouted, "Eighty million for the second time ... last chance... sold!
"Congratulations, eighty million sold to bidder number 65. All the funds will be donated to the charity."
