A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 134

Everly could not help but laugh. "Who taught you this?"

"Mommy, do you think I am a three-year-old child? I am already five years old."

Everly was rendered speechless.

"When Maverick left, he told me the same thing. It's not that I don't want to go and see Candy, but your grandfather probably won't agree now." When Everly thought about the innocent little girl who stayed alone in such a big villa, she felt very sorry for her.

"Why is Grandpa angry?" Edmond was confused. "Forget it! I'll go to talk with Grandpa. Grandma said that his heart is not in good condition and he can't be emotional. I will try my best to comfort him."

Everly laughed.

However, Edmond was right. He would do a better job than her.

After all, Parrish loved his grandson more than his daughter.

Parrish looked very proud and arrogant, but deep inside, he was very fond of children. What was more, he had lost five years of kinship. That was why Parrish doted on Edmond very much now.

Sure enough, less than five minutes later, Edmond ran back and said to Everly that his grandfather had agreed.

Everly was about to ask whether Parrish agreed to let her and Edmond go over there.

However, Edmond added, "Grandpa said that Candy can come to our place."

"Let Candy come over?" Everly was stunned.

Just as Edmond nodded, Parrish followed behind him with a sullen face. He was not in a good mood. "You even know how to threaten me with such a little kid now? It's not a big deal. Since you want to help someone to take care of the child so much, why don't you ask me yourself? Just bring the little girl here. How can you come to his place? It's ridiculous!"

Everly thought to herself, 'Is it not ridiculous to bring Candy here?'

She had no idea about what her father thought about.

If not because of what happened last time, Parrish wouldn't have opposed it openly and so firmly. In fact, Parrish liked children very much. In the past, when Everly and her brother were still young, Parrish doted on them very much, but there was a certain bottom line.

He would never spoil them.

Parrish loved his children the most in the world. When Everly was pregnant, Parrish was so angry that he had a heart attack and stayed in the ICU for a long time.

Therefore, it was easy to imagine that Parrish was moved when he heard that there was a child as old as Edmond staying alone at home.

Of course, Everly believed that her son must exaggerate the story.

Everly thought that it was not a bad idea to let Candy come over, so she planned to pick up Candy herself.

But it would be risky for her to go out now. Afraid that there would be reporters, she contacted Hendrix. However, because Hendrix had a temporary meeting, he could not come over for now.

Everly thought for a moment and called Candy.

The little girl must be waiting for her. When she received the call, she shouted in a pitiful tone, "Everly, when are you coming over? I'm a little scared at home alone."

Everly laughed.

She thought to herself, 'This little girl is really smart. How can anyone say no to her since she said so?'

After all, Maverick was a man. No matter how much he loved his child, he still had a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders. He had no way to take care of Candy in every aspect.

During the previous contact with Candy, Everly felt that the little girl was very independent.

The reason why Candy was affectionate with Everly now was that she wanted her to accompany her.

Everly felt very touched. She smiled and said, "Shall I go over to pick you up now?"

"You come to pick me up?"

"Yes! Would you like to come to my place? Well... You can play with my parents and my brother. They can also accompany you. And Edmond is also at home recently. If you don't go to school, you can accompany each other."

Hearing this, Candy was very happy. "Really? Everly, can I really go to your place?"

"Sure."

Everly couldn't sit still when she heard the little girl's excited tone. She really liked Candy. It was as if she was born to be intimate with her.

"I will pick you up now. Wait for me at home. I'll be there soon."

Candy cheered. Everly hung up the phone and dressed up before going out.

She drove the car herself. Maverick's villa was relatively far, so it took her half an hour on the way.

When Everly arrived at the villa, Candy was already waiting at the door. Several servants were standing behind her. When they saw Everly, they knew she was here to pick up Candy.

The little girl should have told these servants who took care of her. However, nobody was allowed to take Candy away without Maverick's permission.

That was why Everly called Maverick after arriving at the villa.

Maverick went to Italy by private plane. When Everly called him, he just finished a video conference and immediately picked up her call.

"I haven't arrived yet." The man picked up the phone and began to report his whereabouts. "I'm planning to tell you when I get there. You haven't rested yet? I may arrive there in the middle of the night. There are still some things to deal with."

Everly held the phone and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. Her voice was soft. "I'm not calling you for this. I called you to tell you something."

"What?"

"I'm at your house."

"Okay."

"My dad said that I can take Candy to my place. I am here to pick up Candy. In the next few days, she can stay at my place. Your house is too big. My parents are at home and they can be her company. Do you agree with that?"

Maverick was a little surprised. "Your father agreed to let my daughter go to your place?"

"Yes. My dad actually likes children." Everly said with a smile, "Candy is so cute. My dad will definitely like her a lot."

Maverick's tone carried a bit of happiness and helplessness. "I didn't expect that one day, I would need to rely on my daughter to get my father-in-law's approval."

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Did I say it wrong?"

"I won't talk to you anymore. I'll take Candy away and I'll take good care of her. You can do your business at ease. Tell the servants at home."

Maverick certainly believed that Everly would take good care of Candy.

"Of course, I trust you one hundred percent." He then said something else by the way, "I asked Jayden to deal with the negative news on the Internet. I know you want to deal with it yourself, but it's not good to do nothing with it for now. I asked him to take it down first. If you can't reach me when you want to take action, you can come to Jayden. He is in the country. He will help you to deal with anything."

Everly replied, "Okay." Before hanging up the phone, she said, "Maverick, you have to be careful. Also, thank you."

However, the man on the other side refused to budge. "A 'thank you' is not what I want, you know."

Everly looked embarrassed. There were so many people standing beside her. She was embarrassed. Then she said goodbye and hung up the phone.

However, in the end, she still secretly edited a WeChat message.

Everly: [I will miss you.]
