Maverick sounded distressed and irritated.
Everly wanted to snap her gaze back, but she really didn't know where to look.
In the end, she looked straight at his cold face.
Maverick was very handsome with his features strongly marked. But Everly could tell that he was very cold and aloof from such a distance.
Now she had to think again before she spoke.
"Mr. Maverick."
Everly realized that he was giving her an icy glare. Her eyes flashed as she hurriedly said, "I'm so sorry. I...."
"I don't need any special services."
The man interrupted Everly in a deep voice.
Everly was stunned. She immediately defended herself. "I'm sorry. But Mr. Maverick, I'm here to do business."
Seeing that his bodyguards both disappeared, Maverick narrowed his eyes and smiled coldly.
Then he said in a mocking tone, "You come to my room at night and prepare to do business on my bed?"
Everly didn't know what to say.
But Maverick was about to close the door, so Everly just put her explanation aside. She was humiliated, and she would not give up until she achieved her goal.
With her agility, she had her foot wedged in the door and grabbed the handle with both hands. "Mr. Maverick, just give me five minutes."
"That's enough for you?" Maverick pressed down on the door with one hand. He could feel her strength on the door. He snorted and mocked, "You don't look like you'll get satisfied so easily."
Everly had also seen many investors with unsavory character.
But Maverick was so mean.
Everly could only take a deep breath and try to ignore his insult. "Mr. Maverick, I know you're a big man. I shouldn't be so rude. I...."
"But you still did it."
"Mr. Maverick...."
"What makes you think that if you disturb my rest, I will listen to your nonsense?"
"I'm not talking nonsense."
"Yes, you are."
Everly was lost for words.
"Take your hand away. I won't be responsible for the injury on it."
Maverick was going to close the door hard. Everly knew that there was a huge disparity in strength between men and women. But now she was standing on a cliff. There was no other choice for her!
If Maverick closed the door, it would be impossible for Everly to see him again.
Everly gritted her teeth and tried to slip her legs into the room. At the same time, she reached to touch Maverick's chest.
Perhaps she was too bold, and Maverick had not expected it.
Everly was right. Such a lofty man like Maverick must hate being touched by strangers, so he tried to dodge her hand.
Then Everly took the opportunity to squeeze into the room.
However, she had forgotten that it was an automatic door. Even if Maverick did not touch it, the door would close itself.
So, Everly got stuck by the door.
