A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 24

Everly was a little confused.

She didn't understand what Maverick meant.

Right now, he was tightly clinging to her, and there were only them in the elevator.

She paused, but she was still unable to control the tyrannical male hormone from Maverick. It smelt as the smell of sea salt...

She was disturbed.

She felt that this smell was somewhat familiar.

However, it seemed to be a long time ago. Everly was unable to remember when she smelt it before.

Even if Everly tried her best to think back, she couldn't remember it.

Her mind seemed to be frozen. Everly just stared straight at Maverick with her pair of big eyes.

Her eyes were clean and pure. He really couldn't associate them with bad intentions.

However, Maverick had known how charming she was on the bed.

He cursed to himself.

Before Everly could speak, they had already reached their floor.

With a small sound, the door opened. The fresh air rushed into the elevator, causing Everly to wake up.

She subconsciously turned her head away and stood to the side.

After thinking for a while, she walked out of the elevator.

She had just sprained it a little, but it didn't affect her. It was a little painful but she could endure.

Maverick glanced at her ankle. The exposed part of her ankle was very white, catching his eyes.

Maverick pursed his lips and walked out of the elevator.

Everly followed behind him awkwardly. Fortunately, the manager of the restaurant came to welcome them.

Although Maverick kept a straight face, the manager still laughed warmly, "Mr. Maverick, welcome. We're all ready. This way, please."

Maverick just nodded and didn't say anything.

The manager bent down enthusiastically and led the way.

Everly followed Maverick. Quickly, they reached the private room and the manager left.

When Maverick entered the room, everyone here stood up in unison.

Everly was not very surprised as she followed behind. After all, she had done business abroad in the past. When she met investors who were Chinese, they always had such a routine.

It was the first time she had come out with someone of Maverick's status.

Maverick was seated at the head of the table. Everly was together with him, so she naturally sat beside him.

She briefly observed the people in the room. She knew most of them. They were all high-ranking people. She didn't know why Maverick had brought her to this dinner party today. There were a few unfamiliar people, but judging from this situation, they couldn't be the little people.

Maverick did not introduce Everly to others.

However, Everly did not know that Maverick had never brought a woman to socialize or attend various banquets. At most, a male assistant would follow him.

As for her clothes, everyone present was experienced and had his own ideas.

She might be a secretary or something.

Since Maverick had brought her here today, she might be somewhat different, but... it was hard to say. Perhaps he had brought her here to help him drink.

Therefore, after sitting down, someone immediately took out a glass of wine and planned to have a try.

As Everly sat down, a middle-aged man on the other side handed over a glass of wine and smiled. "Mr. Maverick is late. We have to punish him. But we still have business later. Let the secretary have a drink first."

Everly was stunned for a moment. His words made her uncomfortable, but it wasn't unbearable.

Actually, she could drink a lot.

Although she drank red wine abroad most of the time, it was clear that the wine they passed over was liquor.
