A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 151

Maverick fell for it.

Everly was being sweet!

In fact, what Maverick was thinking was that the way she said to make him happy was the same as the way he wanted to make her happy.

Maverick reached out and grabbed her hand on his chest. "Everly, you don't need to take the initiative in this case. If you need it, I can make you happy anytime."

Boys will be boys.

Everly used to think that he was aloof and remote, and he didn't look like a man with strong sex desire. Indeed, one shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

"What are you thinking?"

"Don't you feel the same way?"

"Of course not!"

"But you are trying to seduce me. Are you not going to take responsibility now after teasing me by arousing desire?" he asked in an aggrieved tone.

Everly found that his eyes were full of desires. She knew that she could not continue teasing him. Otherwise, she would really help him with his desire.

Everly decided to get down to business.

"Just try to be normal. I really have something to say."

Maverick felt that he was very normal, otherwise he would have forced himself upon her just now.

However, in order to prevent him from going overboard, Everly quickly pushed him away. "Let me tell you about me. Didn't you always want to know about my marriage in America and my ex-husband?"

What Everly said really made Maverick stop. Maverick never asked about or secretly investigate Everly's past, but it did not mean that he did not want to know.

It was only due to respect.

Now that Everly had taken the initiative to mention it, Maverick naturally wanted to listen to it.

When Maverick knew she was the one he had a one-night stand with five years ago, he hid it from her for a while. Now that she had a "secret", she couldn't help but want to string him along.

So, Everly started talking in a roundabout way.

"I was married in America before, but I didn't tell you anything specific."

Maverick nodded, "What are you going to tell me? Your ex-husband?"

In fact, Maverick didn't care much about the fact that Everly had married before.

When he recognized her, he had already accepted the fact that she had a son. He would not take it to heart.

"Yes, tell you about my son and my ex-husband."

Maverick now intuitively thought that she was doing it on purpose.

Perhaps it was because he had never said anything about what happened five years ago that she deliberately told him about her past to make him afflictive. He would not be indifferent, but he knew that whether he was jealous or not, he still had to coax her in the end.

"Alright, go ahead."

"When I went to America five years ago, I met Jack, my ex-husband. He was a doctor. When I arrived in America, my brother had just started doing business. He didn't have much money, so I spared no effort to make money. Then, by chance, I met Jack. I did him a big favor when he got into a medical dispute. Jack was almost framed at that time. I happened to helped him. He avoided the disaster. I thought he was nice, so we started to be friends. Later..."

It was because she needed to give birth to a child in America and needed an identity.

When Everly went to America, she didn't intend to return home in a short period of time. Therefore, she was married with Jack.

"What happened afterwards?"

"I married him later, and then I gave birth to Edmond there."

Maverick was not stupid. This was just the time for him to ask, "As you mentioned, Jack is an American. I wonder why Edmond is not a mixed-blood."

"I never say Jack is Edmond's biological father." Everly blinked and said seriously, "Edmond is not a mixed-blood, because his father is Chinese."

No matter how shrewd Maverick was, it was impossible for him to catch on that he was Edmond's biological father in an instant.

At this time, Maverick didn't dare to think about this at all, just as Everly did not dare to think that the man five years ago was Maverick.

So, when Maverick heard what Everly said, he naturally thought that she had slept with another man before.

He had tried to convince himself not to care about her past, and promised to treat Edmond as his own son.

But at this moment, Maverick felt impelled to be very uncomfortable.

He was good at self-controlling, but he didn't avoid it at all, directly expressing his emotions on his face.

Everly found his eyes were cold, but she was a little proud of herself.

He must have misunderstood it and was unhappy.

"What's wrong? You look a little unhappy?"

Maverick thought to himself, "I am very unhappy, not a little bit. Who is that man?"

It was really the first time in his life that he wanted to say it, but he couldn't get it out and felt uncomfortable.

Everly saw that he kept a straight face. She knew that he must be very unhappy. She smiled and said, "Why aren't you talking? Do you really care it?"

"Everly, do you want me to tell the truth?" Maverick sighed.

"Of course."

"Alright, listen up." Maverick pinched her hand, looked at her and said, "If I tell you that I really don't care about this, it was impossible! I am a man. I care about your past. However, what I care about is not just your past. It is probably a pity that I should have known you earlier. Or rather, if I knew that I would still be with you now, I would not have just had an affair with you back then. Do you understand? So don't talk about the past. Everyone has his past. I am a little jealous that I do not involve in your past. But I'll be a part of your future."

These words were very pleasant to listen to.

However, Everly knew that he was not simply sweet talking.

It was Maverick's promise.

She felt that her life could be considered to be perfect.

"I don't care who Candy's mother is. I am with you and accept you. I also accept her. Don't worry. I will be good to Candy in the future and treat her like my own child."

Maverick pinched her face, "What exactly do you want to say to me? I know that after you came back, you divorced your ex-husband. Was he nice to you before?"

Everly was almost done with keeping him guessing.

Everly decided to tell him the truth.

"Jack has always been nice to me, but we are husband and wife in name."

"What ... in name?" Maverick's face clouded over.

"As I said, I needed a help back then. He married me to repay me."

Everly paused and said, "Edmond's father is indeed Chinese, and he is from City C. I was not sure before, but now I am sure. I just found out who Edmond's father is."

"Do you want to know who he is?" She stared at Maverick. Then she suddenly smiled as Maverick looked somewhat dull.
