A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 168

However, the little girl was polite, so she wouldn't think too much about it.

She nodded obediently. Then, she took the phone and said, "Ms. Elenore."

Elenore couldn't be more enthusiastic in an extremely gentle voice. "Little sweetie, is it your birthday today?"

"Yes."

"As I am in the other country, I can't celebrate your birthday on the scene. Can I sing a song for you on the phone?"

"What song?"

"The song of 'Happy birthday'." As she spoke, she started humming before Candy said anything. She had a beautiful and soft voice.

As a little girl, it was quite easy to please Candy.

Elenore was a calculating person. Otherwise, how could she become an able woman today? She kept a low profile but her personal worth maybe no less than Maverick's.

After singing, she continued to flatter Candy with picked topics preferred by Candy, such as exclusive toy collections which were very hard to buy as she always knew.

Even adults these days might be crushed by sugar coated bullet, let alone a five-year-old child?

In a short while, Candy's attitude had changed a bit. Before she hung up the phone, she obediently kissed goodbye to Elenore speaking on the phone.

Then, she returned the phone to Maverick. But she forgot about Elenore soon. She pulled Maverick's trousers and said loudly, "Dad, let's go to cut the cake. Ms. Everly must be waiting anxiously."

"Ok," Maverick rubbed his daughter's head and smiled, "You go first. Daddy will be there soon."

Candy left. Maverick glanced at his phone and found that Elenore was stil on the line. So he had to pick it up, "I'll contact you when I get back. I'll hang up first."

Elenore knew when to persist and when to back off. She had endured for so many years that she would not panic because of such a trifle. She understood that it was about the time to say goodbye, "Ok. Have a safe journey. Please contact me when you arrive. Don't stand me up again this time."

Maverick responded reluctantly, seemly accepting her request.

After hung up the phone, he turned his back to see Everly standing not far behind him.

Her expression seemed changed in an instant. But when Maverick's gaze settled on her face, she looked very calm. "The cake is ready as well as the dishes. Let's go to have dinner."

Maverick moved his lips and wanted to say something. But as soon as he took a step, Everly already left.

He was not sure before, but now he did. She had felt a little uncomfortable with the last sentence he said. At this moment, she must be lost in various fancies and conjectures.

However, because he had to celebrate the child's birthday, Maverick did not say much in front of the servants and children at home. He cut the cake for the child and sang a birthday song.

However, Candy, the little girl, had a big mouth. When singing, she heartlessly said, "Dad, Ms. Elenore also sang for me. Let's sing the Chinese version. Every year's birthday, it was English birthday song."

Everly, who was setting down the plates, froze slightly.

Her eyes showed deep sadness.

She didn't want to admit that she was jealous before, but now she had to.

She was so jealous that she almost went crazy.

It was about both Maverick and Candy.
