A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 54

Everly sensed the gaze from Maverick.

As she turned around, she met his eyes.

She was a little surprised, but not because of the awkwardness that their eyes met.

It was the way he looked at her. It was like something she had never seen before.

It was neither possession, deepness nor coldness. It was ... hesitation.

The phone in his hand kept ringing, but his eyes were like asking if he could answer the phone.

Everly thought that maybe she was thinking too much.

Recently she had been quite abnormal. Why did she keep thinking about these things?

To Maverick, surely he wouldn't hang up his daughter's call.

Quickly retracted his gaze, he picked up the phone.

Since the space in the car was limited, even though she couldn't hear clearly, Everly could vaguely tell that the voice was from a girl.

Having no intention of eavesdropping, she buried herself in the documents when Maverick answered the phone.

She thought that she couldn't hear what he talked about if she focused on her work.

However, she still inevitably noticed something. Hearing his voice, Everly paused.

She could not tell what kind of feeling it was to hear Maverick talking to another girl in such a gentle voice.

Nevertheless, the sense of the unstoppable loss was just too strong that it was unable for her to ignore it. It was like her heart to be wrung by a knife.

She must calm herself down!

'Stop it, Everly.'

'Maybe he can afford it, but you can't.'

"What's wrong? Why did you change your phone number? ... If it goes well, it will take about two days."

As Maverick spoke, a girl's muffled voice came out from his phone.

At the moment, an idea just hit Everly's mind. Maverick was engaged with someone from the Kahl family!

Would it be his fiancée?

Tightly grabbing the document folder, she was frustrated and found it hard to breathe in such a small space.

Maverick responded in a low voice as he heard of something from the other end of the phone, "I didn't see it, that's why I missed the call. I'll find her as soon as I am back. Is she behaving herself? ... OK. I gotta go. "

Maverick hung up the phone as the other end did.

With her lips slightly pursed, Everly tried her best to restrain her emotion.

She found herself quite pathetic.

What the hell was this strange feeling?

Why did she have such a feeling towards Maverick?

Could it be that she really had a crush on him during his time after time approaches with unknown purpose?

If that was the case, she must cut it off as soon as possible!

After that, Maverick did not say anything else. Everly was happy to see that since she really needed to focus and take a good look at the data at hand. For now, her priority was to do a good job.
