A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 75

Everly's eyes flickered with embarrassment.

It was easy for her to blush. She looked shy, which proved there was something between Maverick and her.

Everly didn't know what to do. She knew that she could never manage to deceive Hendrix. After all, they grew up together.

Besides, Hendrix knew everything about her.

"... Hendrix, it's not what you think."

"The relationship between Maverick and I is not like what you think. There are some misunderstandings. Anyway, I'm going to resign."

"You are going to resign?" Hendrix laughed.

"Yes."

"Because of your relationship?" Hendrix said bluntly, "I know you very well. You always have a strong sense of self-esteem. You would never resign easily for something that didn't happen. So, the reason could only be your relationship."

Everly couldn't come up with anything to refute him. She felt panic as if someone had firmly pointed out her weakness.

But she felt unwilling to admit it.

"Of course not."

"Really?"

"Hendrix, why would you be evil, too?"

"Too?" Hendrix laughed, "Everly, what evil thing did Maverick do to you?"

Everly was speechless.

Alright, she finally knew what capitalists were like. They had operated their insidious skills of negotiation on her. She didn't feel herself eloquent anymore. She could only be dumb in front of Hendrix. If Hendrix continued to ask her like this, she was afraid that she would say out her true feelings.

However, there was something that she was unwilling to admit, nor did she dare to admit it.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I can solve my problems by myself." She took a deep breath and said, "Didn't you mention finding Edmond's biological father last time?"

Hendrix raised his eyebrows, "You want to do it now?"

"Yes."

"Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Hendrix exchanged his overlapping legs and looked at Everly. "You've always resisted finding Edmond's biological father."

"I've thought it through. Edmond will eventually grow up. Even if he doesn't want to admit his biological father, he should know who his father is. I can't be too selfish. Sooner or later, I need to face these problems. It's my problem to avoid it all the time, not Edmond's."

Hendrix felt surprised. "Well, it seems that you have learned something from Maverick. He does have the ability to change one's mind.

Everly didn't agree with him. "Hendrix, don't make fun of me and don't think too highly of Maverick, OK? It has nothing to do with him. It's because of what happened to Edmond this time that I changed my mind. If you make fun of me again, I'll go away right now."

Hendrix tried hard to repress his smile. "But if it were not for Maverick's daughter, Edmond wouldn't have experienced this."

"Hendrix!"

"Alright, alright, I'll stop. However, there is one thing I still have to say." Hendrix then stopped being slightly arrogant and cynical. He said seriously, "Whatever your relationship is right now, as your brother, I suggest you not fall in love with him."

Everly's heart sank slightly.

Of course, Hendrix, who knew how to read faces, had captured all her subtle expressions.

Hendrix sighed in his heart, too.

He hadn't been worried about this problem before, so it seemed that he had been too careless?

But Everly had just worked for Maverick for a short period. Why would she...?

Everly wasn't the kind of woman who would easily fall in love with someone.
