A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 57

Don't be afraid.

These simple words were like magic at the moment. They pierced through the eardrums and hit Everly's heart directly.

Right, the nerve endings as well. Every cell in her body seemed to have been comforted.

As a matter of fact, she hadn't met with many things that she could handle since she was born.

Including being cheated, getting drunk and having a one-night stand, and then getting pregnant...

She might be a little panicked at the very beginning, but she could calm down very quickly.

She could make up her mind and confirmed that she wanted that child.

Of course, it was Hendrix that had been always protecting her all these years.

But now, Maverick was standing beside her as a protector. Thinking of this, Everly didn't know what to do.

She gradually came to realize why he would bring her to this dinner.

Not many people knew what kind of man he was.

By doing this, he was showing her the real Maverick?

But she never thought of this. She didn't even think about the possibility that they could be together.

After being comforted, her heart started beating fast again.

She wasn't scared, but she was also scared.

She struggled for a moment, wanting to push Maverick away. He could feel the dodging from her eyes. Smart as he was, he knew what that meant.

But who was he?

It was Maverick Lamont we were talking about.

The things he decided would never have a chance to change. He would definitely get what he wanted.

Since he had brought her here today, he would not give her the chance to retreat, nor would he allow her to do so.

His eyes lit up as he stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder. Even though the surroundings were bustling with noise, his eyes seemed to only be able to see her.

"You can't hide now."

Hearing this, Everly panicked, " ... I don't know what you're talking about, Mr. Maverick, you ... things here..."

"Don't worry about others. Just look at me."

Everly couldn't say a word.

Maverick sneered when he saw that she was unwilling to look at him again.

What he wanted was basically in hand. He didn't want to stay in this dirty place anymore. With Everly in his arm, he stood up directly.

Along with his movement, Everly had to stand up unsteadily. She was almost lifted all by him.

She was wearing high heels. Even though it was not high enough, she still staggered.

Her body leaned against Maverick subconsciously.

His scorching chest was just right next to her ear, which had broiled her entire body. She had never thought that she would be working like this.

She was a little panicked, and at the same time confused.

Never had she met with this before, she tended to reject it deep in her heart.

They were not in the same world. She did not even know much about him. Moreover, her situation was different from that of an ordinary girl. How was it possible for a lofty man to accept a girl who already had a marriage and a five-year-old child?

People should admit that some girls were rational at the critical moment.

What she was considering were not the momentary emotion, romance, or ambiguity in front of her...

It was the future.

But where was the future ... between them?

Everly didn't even dare to think about it. The first reaction she had was to resist.

Chace had never been humiliated like this before. Maverick ruined his base without a sound and now he was even flirting with his little secretary in front of him.

Was he seeing him as a nobody?

Mr. Declan had instructed him that he could teach Maverick a lesson but not to hurt him. However, this son of a bitch had gone too far. He just couldn't stand it.
