A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 111

Maverick didn't let go of her hands.

Everly was very clear that he had always been domineering, and he was even unreasonable. No matter how she struggled, he would not change.

After the argument with the three women, she felt a little tired.

"I came here today for work handover," Everly said.

Maverick looked at her, "Are you angry?"

Everly looked up in surprise.

He didn't answer the question. He seemed very careful when speaking.

Everly thought, "He is afraid that I would be angry because of what just happened?

...

"He is Maverick, who will never compromise with others. He doesn't need to consider others' feelings. He is eligible to be arrogant and self-centered.

"He runs the business very well, and he already had a high social status and has a lot of money overseas.

"But now, he is looking at me carefully, asking if I am angry,"

Everly couldn't say anything else. Her throat felt dry, and she shook her head, "I'm not angry."

"I'll get someone to clear the posts on the forum," He said.

"As you know, these are not the root causes of the problem. The rumors of the masses can not be blocked," Everly said in a low voice, "But I don't care about it."

Others could say whatever they wanted, if she was really so concerned, how could she live peacefully?

Perhaps it was because Maverick was warm and soft now, which was different from his face. The contrast made Everly feel hot and could not help but speak out her thoughts,

"When I was 20 years old, I broke up with my boyfriend and was betrayed by my best friend," She paused for a moment, and her voice became a little sad, "I was very sad at that time. But now I feel that I've already overcome the biggest setback in my life. Being a single mother and living with the child abroad was hard. No matter how open it is abroad, there were some idle gossips. It can't be avoided, so I really don't care about it."

Maverick suddenly asked her, "Single mother? Your ex-husband did not take care of you and your child?"

Hendrix had asked someone to deliberately hide all the things related to her. It was not that Maverick did not want to investigate. In the beginning, he did not pay much attention to her. When he started caring about her, he felt that there were many things that he could wait for her to speak out at the right time.

Now that they were talking about it, Maverick asked directly. He couldn't wait anymore.

He asked, "Why did you go abroad? After you went abroad, why did you marry an American? To take revenge on your ex-boyfriend?"

Everly was speechless when hearing his words.

These were the things that she wanted to hide the most.

She knew that these things could not be concealed.

Jack was her husband in name, and now they had divorced. Edmond would never become Jack's son because Edmond was not a mixed-blood.

Everly did not know how to explain it.

She wanted to say something, but she didn't. She thought that there was no need for her to explain to him.

With their current relationship, they could not share secrets. Moreover, those were the secrets that were hidden deep within her mind. She would not easily tell others.

Moreover, her brother was also investigating the man from back then.

Everly was indeed suspicious last night. But she now thought that she must be crazy.

She swallowed her saliva and did not answer. Instead, she pointed at Maverick's wrist, "Mr. Maverick, what brand is the watch you usually wear?"

This was the last hope that slowly emerged from the depths of her heart.

What if that man she met five years ago was him?

Everly was nervous, but she thought that she had enough courage to tell him everything if there was at least one clue.

She couldn't confirm anything else, but she was confirmed that she had feelings for Maverick.

It was just that she was still struggling with their relationship.

Maverick also did not expect that she would ask him about his watch. He seemed to be stunned for a moment. Then, he instinctively raised his hand. Under the sleeve of the white shirt, half of the name list was covered.
