After that day, Everly didn't contact Beth anymore. And she didn't go to the company these days, so she doesn't know what's going on now.
Beth called and told Everly where she went. Everly felt very guilty after hearing it.
"So, the two women called the police that day? And then... Lawrence brought you out of the police station?"
Maverick had never told her about this, and when she thought of what happened to her and Maverick in the office that day, Everly was even more upset, "Beth, I'm sorry. All these things were because of me. I'm sorry I forgot you."
Beth sighed, "You don't understand what I mean. It was Lawrence that bastard. He did it on purpose."
"What?"
"That two female employees did call the police, but it was Lawrence's idea. He received the news at first and knew that I was in Lamont Group. After that, he was afraid that I would run away, so he immediately called the police and said that there was a fight. Lawrence had a certain power in City C. I think Mr. Maverick doesn't know about this. After I was brought to the police station, the first person I met was Lawrence."
When Everly heard this, she felt even guiltier, "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have been exposed so easily."
"I don't want to hide anymore." Beth said, "This guy knows that I'm in City C. I've been hiding for so many years and I'm very tired. Forget it, just like you said, things should be solved head-on."
"Are you with Lawrence now?"
"I guess so," Beth said.
"What does it mean?"
"He did not lock me up either. I also know his problem. This man... Since he is unwilling to give up for so many years, I also want to give it a try for him."
After Everly heard this, she was slightly moved, "Beth, what do you think love is?"
After she asked this question, her eyes were subconsciously looked for that figure.
She thought that she might not understand love all this time, but she felt that she seems to realize the taste of love at this time.
She's just not sure.
There was still some distance between Beth and Lawrence. Money and power were often a hindrance to their relationship. However, in Everly's opinion, she was not the one who lacked money. She had no power. No matter how powerful the Farleys was, they could not be equal to the Lamont family.
However, this did not seem to be within the scope of her consideration.
It was probably because there was still an inexplicable barrier between them.
Maybe it's just her own psychological problem.
She wanted to find the man from five years ago, but Maverick suddenly appeared in her life.
"Love?" Beth seemed to ponder for a moment, then said, "Do you remember when we were students, whose songs we liked to listen to the most?"
"Mayday?"
"Random Gate."
Everly pursed her lips and smiled, "You asked me where the most beautiful place in the world is. The answer is by your side."
This was the lyrics that both of them liked the most in that song.
They used to go to the Mayday concert together. At that time, these two lyrics had flashed across the big screen, making them feel sexy.
Beth said, "I think that's how it feels. Actually, it differs from person to person. If you ask your heart, you will find the answer. If you really like him, you will definitely want to be with him."
...
Everly put away the phone and looked up. Maverick and two children had just finished the project and walked towards her.
She felt that she was not tired anymore.
