A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 48

One side of Everly's cheek was closely attached to the man's lap.

Everly had just woken up, being a little unconscious. She felt a little uncomfortable for her face was against something, so she couldn't help but rub it.

Before this moment, Maverick had never seen himself as a lustful man. At least for so many years, with his power and wealth, women would kill for a spot beside him, and when they did come close, he would remain indifferent.

Men's desires weren't that hard to restrain like others claimed.

As long as you don't want to, and weren't interested, you wouldn't have any desire.

But he did now.

Moreover, it came at a speed that he was unable to control at all.

Everly didn't know what the man was thinking and was still moving.

Maverick's eyes were filled with emotions that couldn't fade away easily.

'This woman, does she know what she is doing?'

If he continued to do nothing about this, he would completely lose control because of her. Then Maverick reached out and pinched her chin, and asked in a suppressed tone of voice, "What are you doing?"

The sudden male voice suddenly broke the silence in the car.

Everly's mind went blank for a moment before she suddenly remembered something and sat up.

Her gaze instantly met the unusually enthusiastic look in Maverick's eyes.

A rumbling sound.

It seemed a shocking bolt of lightning had struck down from above.

Her face blushed scarlet out of embarrassment.

'What is going on?'

Everly hastily shifted her gaze away, and her body moved a little to the side, by a distance barely noticeable.

Everly wanted to say something as she did find such a Maverick too way out of line, almost like a hooligan.

But on second thought, she recalled that she was the one who slept on his lap.

She quickly figured out the current situation and concluded that all of this was her fault.

Everly's mind was in a mess. She had a tendency to get up the wrong side of the bed. In addition, she was still a little upset about what happened on the plane. But now this...

Her head was bombarded with all her own thoughts and she didn't know what to say when she opened her mouth.

Maverick felt so hot and thirst in lust.

If he stayed in such a small space with her any longer, he could not guarantee that he wouldn't do anything.

The man took a deep breath and remained silent for two minutes before the awkwardness dissipated.

At the same time, Everly shrank herself to the side, burying her head in the sand.

When Maverick pushed open the car door and got off, Everly heaved a sigh of relief.

She hurriedly got out of the car as well.

Looking around again, Everly then finally realized that they had arrived at the hotel.

Everly reached out and pinched her slightly painful temples. Then she followed behind Maverick with her suitcase, at a distance of five meters, and went into the hotel.

Jayden had already checked in for them, and Maverick was used to presidential suites.

The rooms for Everly and Jayden were beneath Maverick's. The three of them would meet at 9 a. m. But there wasn't much time for Maverick and Everly.

Maverick answered one phone call and instructed Jayden to postpone the meeting until evening.

Everly went to her room and tidied up her things. When she finished, she remembered that her phone was still in Maverick's hand. Reluctant to come to his door, she chose to call him through the phone of the hotel.

However, she didn't know which room Maverick stayed. After thinking for a while, Everly knocked on Jayden's door next door.

Jayden was probably also sorting out his luggage. When he opened the door, Everly stood at the door and asked, "Do you know Mr. Maverick's room number?"

Jayden's expression changed slightly.

Seeing this, Everly was sure that there was a flash of disdain in Jayden's eyes. After all Jaydan had been aloof when handing over his job to her.

Everly thought for a moment and concluded that he might have misunderstood her.

But she didn't feel the need to explain to him. So she said briefly, "My phone is with Mr. Maverick. I want to text my family since I've got the time."

Jayden looked at Everly and asked, "Secretary Everly, may I ask you some personal questions?"

Everly had already guessed what he wanted to ask and nodded, "Yes."

Jayden had rehearsed this in his brain before blurting it out. Maybe it was because all the embarrassing words in the forum of Lamont Group that she saw before, Everly had mentally prepared herself for what Jayden might say.

As for Jayden, he was very considerate and careful with his choice of words.

"Secretary Everly, I've been Mr. Maverick's assistant for many years. However, what between Mr. Maverick and you is still new to me. I don't know what kind of relationship you have, but you shouldn't forget what happened at the hotel and the airport as well I sending your son away."

It was indeed this matter.

Everly nodded generously, "I won't forget. Is this related to my work?"

"No." Jayden paused for a moment and said, "At first, I felt that your son was intentionally approaching Mr. Maverick. And I still have the same belief."

Everly smiled and said, "Assistant Jayden, becoming Mr. Maverick's secretary is not what I wanted. But Mr. Maverick and I did have some conflicts before. Others might be eager to win his favor due to his status. However, I really don't. I really don't see Mr. Maverick that way. As for the matter concerning my son, I'm sorry I don't know the details. He only mentioned that he met a man. If you need to report to Mr. Maverick that I have a son, please go ahead. I never intend to hide it."

After she finished speaking, Everly prepared to leave. But she added a few words, "Assistant Jayden, if you can, you can also transfer me to another department. In that case, I would be extremely grateful."

Everly waved her hands and said helplessly, "As you can see, this is who I am. I may not be the best one for this job. But I have my own difficulty so I can't resign now. To be honest, I don't really want to work with Maverick that much."

Then Everly walked towards the elevator entrance.

Before going in, her last sentence was, "Assistant Jayden, if possible, can you get my phone from Mr. Maverick? It's not appropriate for me to go to his room by myself."

After Everly returned to her room, her face darkened.

She had had enough!

Everyone suspected that she had her agenda with Maverick.

Heh, they were thinking the wrong way.

From the way they interacted with each other, if one of them really had an agenda, it must be Maverick!

She had never done anything out of line to him, but Maverick ... had even forcefully kissed her!

Without a cell phone, she could only use the hotel landline to call Hendrix.

But Hendrix didn't answer the phone. Everly thought that maybe her brother wouldn't answer a stranger's call.

Then she wanted to call her son, but he was probably at school at the moment.

Just as Everly was about to spend some time on the materials, the landline in the room rang.

Everly thought for a moment and picked it up.

The deep male voice over there did not surprise her at all. "Your phone is with me. There is only one room on the VIP floor. Come here."
