A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 66

It was from Maverick.

Everly held her phone tightly as if she was holding a hot potato.

However, there were some things that she still had to face on her own. So she took a deep breath and quickly picked up the phone.

"Mr. Maverick," She opened her mouth first and said in a very calm tone. "Sorry, I've been too tired these past two days because of some things. I just fell asleep and didn't see any messages."

She knew that today was a working day, and she had asked Jayden for leave these few days.

Maverick was back now. Before she officially resigned, she should really work hard. But the child...

Now she felt distressed when Jack suddenly sent a few messages at such a time.

She was also at a loss.

"Mr. Maverick, what can I do for you? I asked for leave today..."

"Have you asked me for leave?" Maverick interrupted her coldly.

Everly calmed herself down and said, "Mr. Maverick, I can't contact you these days."

"Did I ever tell you that you could email me?"

"You did not tell me that."

Maverick knew that Everly had a quick tongue. She usually liked to be arrogant in front of him for she knew that he wasn't willing to do anything to her. At this moment, every word she said was against him.

He laughed angrily. "So you rely on only one mouth for all your years of work experience?"

Everly didn't want to waste her time arguing with him. She had made up her mind and said, "Mr. Maverick, I will send you an email. I did exaggerate too much before, and I think too highly of myself. I'm afraid that I'm not qualified for your position as chief secretary. I will hand over my resignation. You can arrange for a successor. When all the work is handed over, I will officially resign."

...

Maverick was in the hospital ward.

It was the VIP ward on the highest floor in the hospital.

When Carolina and Miley entered, Maverick wore a long face. Candy on the bed was already asleep.

Carolina glanced at Miley, and then stepped forward and said to Maverick, "Maverick, don't worry. Candy is fine now. However ... I'm sorry, I should have told you immediately. You were on a business trip, but I couldn't contact you at that time. I..."

"Carolina, what does it have to do with you?" At this time, Miley stepped forward and interrupted Carolina. The two sisters seemed to be united in their enmity, which was a rare situation. "Although I always felt that you couldn't take good care of Candy, I think you've done a good job this time."

Maverick stretched out his hand and tugged at the collar of his shirt, without a word.

No one knew if he was listening.

He casually threw his phone on the table and sat down with his legs folded.

Smoking was not allowed in the ward. Maverick was just leaning on the sofa. The warm yellow light above his head illuminated his cold features, leaving some shadows. He was charming now.

However, his expression was extremely cold. It was obvious that he didn't want to see anyone.
