A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 30

At the Kahl's Mansion.

In City C, if the Lamont family was the giant standing on top of the pyramid, then there was no doubt that the Kahl's was the one standing right next to it.

Though, by the time Maverick took over the family business, the two important names of Lamont and Kahl had stopped appearing next to each other for quite some time.

But it was not the case back in the days when Jenson and Will were almost brothers,

Who had known each other from day one and stayed friends for many years to come. They did not choose each other to be friends. They just happened to be born into important families and living in the same world.

Years after, when the two boys became fathers, it wouldn't be a surprise that they might want to share a grandson.

However, when the time came, Maverick, Will's only son, was having second thoughts since it wasn't exactly his promise to keep from the very start. Jenson, without an heir to take his place and take over the family business, was getting desperate and almost despicable, trying to pull some strings and make this marriage work.

Well, for Maverick, an unbinding verbal agreement between parents meant nothing to him.

And before long, the rest of the world seemed to have gotten the idea and they were not going to sit tight and wait for the opportunities to cooperate with the Lamont's. Since then, the Kahl family was out of picture.

However, Jenson, in his prime, was not to be crossed with. He was known for his ruthlessness and self-importance in the business world, which nevertheless made himself quite some enemies. It was just that back then not a lot of people had a say in this.

But now, everything was different. Every mansion would finally crumble, just like the kings who would come and go.

By now, Jenson was not the man with an iron fist that he used to be anymore. His counterparts in the business world would only sit with him on the same table because of the connection he had with the Lamont family.

But now when Maverick came back from abroad and made his point clear by shutting Jenson out, no mercy was spared for the Kahl family in this cruel world.

Jenson slapped the newspaper away on the floor, then kicked over the tea table right in front of him furiously,

When Miley, his daughter, was just coming down from the stairs. "What was that about? Didn't you just get up from bed?" Miley walked towards his father with a trot.

Finding out that Maverick had once again stolen his business deal when he was about to close it, Jenson was furious and outraged.

Then when he laid eyes on his daughter, he had found the perfect one to blame, "Where the hell is your sister?"

Miley immediately figured what it is about, "Well, she's over at Maverick's, helping him with his baby girl. I thought you knew."

Filled with anger, Jenson took on a sinister and vicious look, "Damn it. Helping him with his baby girl? Your sister is nothing but a joke to Maverick. I expected nothing else from the two of you but one thing—make him yours. And you know what? You two have done a great job doing the exact opposite. Because there's new girl now, his secretary! It used to be Jayden around him."

Miley was actually cool with his father undermining his sister like this. She kind of agreed.

But when she found out that there was a new secretary, a woman,

Something popped into her mind, "The new secretary. Is she called Everly?"

At this moment, Jenson's chest was still heaving violently, and when he heard the name, he didn't react to it.

Miley sat on the sofa and said, "I know her name. She was a Farley and the younger sister of Hendrix, the head of SY Corp. Dad, they are the one that did this to us. I told you that we need to watch out for Hendrix. But you refused to listen to me. Now see? He's sending his sister to seduce Maverick."

Jenson kind of saw the point.

Hendrix had a sister? He really didn't know that.

Now she was the secretary standing right next to Maverick?

But the Kahl family and the Farley family never had much to do with each other. They had nothing against us. Besides, Maverick couldn't just shut us out completely. It was more complicated than that.

"Where did you get this news?" Jenson asked.

Miley fiddled with her sapphire-blue nails and said, "Sister, you knew it too. Go ahead. You can ask her. That Farley girl was the one who got between sis and Maverick. And I have just the perfect way to get back on her."

Actually, Miley had long wanted to make a move on Everly, but too bad she really had nothing on her.

Whatever happened to Everly back in the States, Hendrix must have made sure that no one was ever going to find out about it.

But Miley had her name. It could be a start.

Miley Kahl recalled seeing Hendrix in some fancy parties. There was no doubt that he was way too young, but in no way he could make an easy target.
