A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 135

In the private plane.

The secretary sitting opposite Maverick clearly felt that Maverick was in a very good mood.

It was like that he was glowing.

The secretary was the chief secretary in charge of matters in Italy. Maverick did not like foreigners to help him to run the company. The employees he trusted were almost from City C.

However, this secretary always lived in Italy.

This time, he had specially asked the plane to pick up Maverick.

He had worked for Maverick for many years, but he had never seen such an expression on his face.

When he heard his boss talking on the phone, the secretary was already a little surprised. Maverick's tone was gentle. He seemed to become another man the secretary did not know at all.

And now, the big boss, who had always been an unsparing man, was holding his cell phone. It was unknown what he saw, and the smile on his face was very rare to see.

The secretary was not sure if he could report the following content.

Maverick looked at the WeChat and gentleness was written all over his face. If his friends who were familiar with him saw him like this, they would probably think that they might be hallucinating.

However, the moment Maverick put away his phone, his handsome face became as cold as usual.

He raised his hand and lightly tapped the armrest of the chair. He said in a deep voice, "Continue."

...

On Everly's side.

After finishing the call, she did not stay there for long. She was not sure how many days Maverick would be on a business trip. Then she asked Candy to bring some clothes to change and drove away.

Along the way, Everly focused on driving while Candy sat in the back seat of the car. She was very excited.

Although it was a little late, the little girl was not sleepy at all. She had talked to Everly about a lot of things and it could be seen that she was really happy.

There were no problems along the way. When Everly was driving, she noticed that there had been a car following her. She guessed that it was the bodyguard arranged by Maverick.

At such a tense moment, Everly didn't care that someone was following her. It was all for the sake of her safety, after all.

When they arrived at the Farley's, Edmond was stretching out his neck and waiting for the little girl. As soon as he saw Candy get out of the car, Edmond ran over, completely showing the welcome of a big brother to his sister. The expression on his face was full of enthusiasm.

In fact, sometimes Everly could not figure it out.

Edmond was not a very enthusiastic child. Over the past few years, no matter where he was, he didn't make any friends with his classmates. It was understandable when he was abroad, but after he came back, he went to kindergarten and only got along well with Candy.

According to Everly's original guess, she didn't expect that the two children would be good friends.

Candy was such a delicate and innocent little girl. How could Edmond like her so much?

What was more, the little girl was also quite dependent on Edmond.

They had only known each other for a month or two, but they were thick as thieves.

Everly brought the two children back to the house. Gloria had just come downstairs and saw her daughter holding a child in each hand. At that moment, she stood at the corner of the stairs and seemed to be stunned.

After the relationship between Maverick and Everly was exposed, Gloria had specially checked it online.

There was no information about Maverick's daughter, no photos.

It seemed that Maverick had protected the child well.

That was why Gloria had never seen what this girl looked like.

Gloria was really shocked when she suddenly saw Everly standing next to Candy, with Edmond on the other side.

She didn't know how to describe this picture.

The three were like a real family.

No, no, no! It should be said that this little girl was so similar to Everly when she was young.

Others might not know, but it was impossible for Gloria not to know. The eyes of Candy and Everly were too similar.

However, Everly had grown up and was somewhat different. As a mother, Gloria would never forget what her daughter looked like in her childhood.

Shock was already not enough to describe Gloria's feelings now.

If it wasn't because she felt that her thoughts were too terrifying, she would probably really think that this little girl was Everly's child.

But ... that was impossible.

Could two people without ties of blood be such similar in the world?

Gloria stared straight into Candy's eyes. The feeling in her eyes was too complicated.

Although Candy was young, she was a smart girl. She didn't have many social interactions in the first place. And she would hold a birthday party in the near further. In the past, she would only spend her birthday alone with her father every year.

This year was the most special because she was allowed to invite Edmond and Everly.

She looked like a little princess who seemed to have everything, but it was not like that. And the missing part was something that money could not make up.

She liked Edmond and Everly even more. Therefore, deep down, she really wanted to blend in with them. On the way here tonight, although the little girl talked a lot and was very excited, she was actually a little afraid.

She was worried that Everly's family would not like her.

Was that lady Edmond's grandmother? Candy heard Edmond mentioned her once.

Candy was a little scared when Gloria had been looking at her. Did Edmond's grandmother not like her?

Candy couldn't help but bite her lips and subconsciously grabbed Everly's hand.

Everly also felt that Gloria's gaze was a little strange. When she felt a tight grasp from her hand, she realized that the little girl seemed to be a little nervous and uneasy.

Everly quickly said to Edmond, "Take Candy to your room to play. Mommy will come and find you later."

Edmond nodded and took Candy upstairs.

When Candy passed by Gloria, she was well-educated and bowed to Gloria as greeting, "Hi, Mrs. Farley. My name is Candy. Nice to meet you."

The sweet voice made Gloria come back to her senses in an instant and quickly nodded. "Nice to meet you, Candy. What a pretty girl! Are you hungry? I will get you some food."

The little girl shook her head. "Thank you, Mrs. Farley. But I'm hungry."

"Okay! Edmond, take her upstairs to play for a while. The guest room will be ready in a while. Then she can take a shower and sleep."

Edmond replied with an "Okay" and couldn't wait to drag Candy into his room.

Gloria was still looking at the door and she was in a daze.

Everly felt that she was very strange and couldn't help asking, "Mom, what happened to you? You looked at Candy like that just now, and your gaze was very scary."

Gloria cleared her throat and frowned. "What? Do you feel sorry for another man's child?"

After thinking about it, she felt that these words were not good. Indeed, Everly's expression was different.

"That's not what I meant..."

But Everly said seriously, "Mom, don't say that again. Don't think that they are still young, but children nowadays are really sensitive. Candy is a very good little girl. I like her very much."
