But Pira didn't seem to be disappointed. She felt that she had condescended to talk to Kailey, an old woman.
"Kailey, I came to see you. I'm sorry about what happened last time."
Her apology sounded hard to accept. Kailey also smiled, "Pira, don't be. I am just an old woman. How can you say sorry to me?"
An old woman...
Pira was embarrassed, her makeup still exquisite.
She thought in her heart, 'Who told this old woman about what I had said. What a gossipmonger!'
However, her family had provided her a complex environment and enabled her to deal with such an awkward situation.
She stood still, "Kailey, is there any misunderstanding? I'm really sorry about that. I missed Maverick too much. You know my feeling for him. But he has seldom come back since he brought that boy back to China. Aren't you worried? Maybe he won’t come back."
"He is my son. As his mother, it is reasonable for me to sacrifice myself for him. Even if he leaves me here alone, I'm okay with that. After all, I'm just an old woman" Kailey repeated.
Pira couldn't hold on.
She was still less experienced than Kailey.
When Kailey was her age, she had experienced a lot, instead of just scheming other girls.
So soon Pira took out a folder.
She stopped smiling, her voice not sweet at all, "This is the latest news about Maverick. He has not done anything under the agreement we made. I'm wondering whether I should tell my father."
Kailey didn't see what was inside.
But she could roughly guess something from Pira's expression. She sneered, "You want me to have Maverick come back by using the same tricks? As an old woman like me, I have a quick piece of advice for you."
Pira pursed her lips.
Kailey continued with a smile, "What you've done won't work if you want to reach his heart. I think you also know my son well. Do you really think he knows nothing about your investigation? Back then, he wished that he could leave the Kamo family, despite the cost of getting hurt. Now the financial market in Europe and America is under his control. If your father and brother can find his weaknesses, you don't need to use an old woman like me."
Pira's face was very ugly.
Kailey continued, "I will support whatever he does. I stay here only because I am willing to do so."
At this time, the servant came with the medicine and asked Kailey to take it and have a rest.
Kailey nodded, then glanced at Pira and pointed at the folder, "But I will take a look at this. You see, I am old and can't live for long. I'm wondering how much your brothers would lose if their lifesaver dies. I think you'd better not come to provoke me frequently. If I die, you would also suffer."
"You!"
Pira was furious, but she did not dare to say anything else.
After all, Kailey was Maverick's mother.
She didn't dare to confront her directly.
Kailey didn't give her any glance. She then asked the servant to push her in.
But her expression changed when she turned around.
She said that like she didn't care about the Kamo family.
But if they really served the tie, Maverick could not deal with them alone without any damage.
