Everly felt overwhelmed by his deep voice.
She ignored the fact that he was staring at her from a close distance. Her dark eyes flickered, but she sighed in her heart.
Sure enough, he was a difficult man.
Thinking about it now, she still felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have knocked on his room door on impulse then.
No matter what, she got a responsibility.
She tried her best to keep her voice even, "Mr. Maverick, I ... I'd like to apologize to you. I was a little drunk and lost my head in anger. Can we let this go?"
"You think I will let it go as you wish? Miss Everly, do you know how many people there were just now?" Maverick looked at her amusedly.
Everly didn't know what to say.
"They are all my friends. Of course, your brother is also here. Do you think they will believe I'm not good in bed?"
"What do you want me to do?" Everly asked in frustration.
Maverick looked at her without saying anything.
Everly was terrified by the coldness in his eyes. However, they were so close. The man kept her thumb on her chin, fiddling it in a casual manner, giving her a tingling sensation.
She squirmed, but Maverick went harder to confine her under his body.
"Mav..."
"Answer me. Do you think I am impotent?" He seems to be persistent on this question.
Everly thought that he might be sick.
They were adults. Why did he keep asking her this childish question?
She really wanted to say, "You should go to your woman for an answer."
However, she didn't want to fight with Maverick anymore. She just wanted him to let her go quickly.
She just wanted to get out of this damn place!
Therefore, she restrained her temper and changed the way she spoke. "Mr. Maverick, my words were meaningless. True, there was indeed a room full of people. But everyone knew that I overreacted. Why should Mr. Maverick stick to such a meaningless topic?"
Maverick pursed his thin lips slightly. His condescending gaze made Everly very uncomfortable.
He was a lofty judge. And if she did not obediently answer his boring question, she would be sentenced to capital punishment.
Everly was amused by the thought that flashed through her mind. She could not help but say, "Besides, we're both adults. How would I know you are good or not?"
Which meant she didn't do anything with him. Why did he keep asking her this question?
...
Everly wasn't sure if Maverick was getting angrier.
However, she felt Maverick's eyes were black holes that she could not escape. But if she were sucked in, she would get crushed.
Everly swallowed. All her negative emotions had now turned into panic and uneasiness.
Just as she was hesitating about how to speak, the strength on her chin suddenly increased.
Everly felt a little painful and grunted.
Coldly, the man said word for word in her ears,
"You don't remember?"
He said the three words very slowly and then paused as if he was sniggering. Everly could tell that he was mocking her. The contempt in his latter sentence confirmed her guess.
