A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 157

He had never forgotten what happened in the past.

At the age of seven, he was supposed to be the golden boy but deprived of all privileges then.

Young and ignorant, he had no ability to resist.

At that time, the Waller family was kind and tolerant. They thought that they just needed to care their own business since the two families were not in a league.

However, some people just pretended to be kind.

Actually, they would stop at nothing to seek benefits.

The past memory had been buried in Maverick's heart for many years.

His merciless words pushed Levi away.

In the end, who would respect an elder who never fulfilled his responsibility?

Levi was clear about everything but always adopted a condescending manner. He would be least willing to admit that what he had done was dead wrong.

But Maverick no longer cared about these.

He hadn't achieved what he wanted yet, so he would not care about the attitude of the Lamont family.

As he lit the third cigarette in silence, those memories, blurring or clear, all crowded in his mind.

He thought that he had already been numb, but still felt hatred when recalling the past.

He called Kailey who was far away in Italy.

Kailey was a little astonished, due to the time lag, by her son's sudden call, since Maverick seldom made phone calls before. But he would fly to visit his mother once or twice a month.

Kailey wondered if there was something wrong. She had heard about some news about what happened at home. "Maverick?"

"Mom, how have you been these days?"

"I'm pretty much the same. Don't worry. Miss Candy is engaging in a family issue and has no time to bother me. Her brother seems to have come back and arranged a blind date for her."

Maverick spoke as though he hardly heard her, "I've been busy with domestic business affairs for the past two years and seldom have time to take care of you. Despite better health, you have suffered a lot over the years. And you overcame all the difficulties out of worrying about me."

Kailey said with a smile, "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so sad? I'm doing well, but you have gone through so many things recently. I understand you know what you want. Did you come back a few days ago?"

"Well, I came back for some business problems. But the schedule was so tight that I hardly had time to eat dinner with you, mom."

"Are you serious about... well, Miss Everly?" Kailey asked.

Maverick thought for a moment and whispered, "I will take Everly to see you after the matter is settled."

His meaning was very clear.

Kailey sighed, "I used to worry that you were not interested in women. But when you are in love with someone, I'm a bit at a loss."

"Mom, don't think too much. Just take care of yourself." Maverick extinguished the cigarette in his hand and then whispered, "Candy's birthday is coming soon and my work will be finished then. I'll take her back to Italy and celebrate her birthday with you. "

Kailey certainly agreed.

Maverick added, "There's also a child."

Kailey was stunned by his words. She knew that Everly had a five-year-old son.

It was not difficult to find that Everly has a son and she had never deliberately concealed anything.
