Maverick put an alternate meaning behind his words.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Everly said shyly.
"I mean it."
"Maverick!"
...
Maverick narrowed his eyes. Although they were close to each other, he was staring down at her. Then, she looked up at him angrily. Her red lips looked very tender and tempting. Seeing this, he swallowed hard, which looked very sexy. Everly's eyes paused and she subconsciously wanted to break away from his arms. But when she did it, she found she was held tightly.
Her blush deepened and she said, "Maverick, you ... there are so many people here. Let go of me. What's your problem? You shouldn't be overwhelmed by the lust."
Maverick thought he was wronged.
He didn't think about that, but wanted to kiss her.
"Dad, Everly, hurry up! We are going to buy tickets!"
Candy interrupted them.
However, from where Everly stood, Candy saved her from Maverick.
Everly could tell what Maverick was thinking from his eyes.
However, with the children here, he had to control himself.
Everly had never gone out with a man and two children. She held Edmond's hand and thought that Candy would like to hold Maverick's hand. But to Everly's surprise, Candy glanced at them and then waved to Maverick. Maverick bent down, and Candy raised up on her toes, whispering in his ear. After that, she ran to Everly's left hand.
"Everly, can you hold my hand?"
Everly got a warm feeling in her heart and held Candy's little hand. Then, Maverick went to line up to buy tickets.
He also wore sportswear today. His cap and sunglasses covered most of his face, so he was not so eye-catching in the crowd. However, many people's eyes would fall on him for a few seconds.
Everly did not know if he had ever done this with his daughter in the past.
She held Candy and Edmond, waiting for the tickets at the gate.
At times, she looked towards Maverick and found that many young girls were standing around him.
A few of them even took out their phones to secretly take photos.
Everly didn't know what to say.
It was crazy.
She muttered something, but there was no denying that she was upset about this.
Somehow, she thought he should belong only to her. If other women stared at him, she would feel uncomfortable.
Everly was startled by this thought.
She remembered she wasn't so possessive when she was in love with Lucas.
Was she too young at that time?
Maybe she didn't love Lucas when she was dating him.
"Everly, do you think my dad is particularly handsome?" Candy suddenly hovered over and asked with a smile.
Everly was interrupted. She paused for a moment and then nodded with a red face.
"Do you love my dad?" Candy was as frank as Edmond.
However, she was only 5 years old. Did she know what love was?
