A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 152

"I wasn't sure before, but now I am. I've just found out who is Edmond's biological father."

"A Chinese, from City C."

...

"Do you want to know who that man is?"

...

Maverick had gone through a lot of soul-stirring moments in his life.

For both good and bad things.

He had experienced a lot in the past, some of which he had never told Everly.

Over time, he had become quite indifferent.

But at this moment, he felt that his heart was filled with something indescribable.

He couldn't even make a move.

If Everly had been able to understand everything about that one-night stand at once, then at this point, it was impossible for Maverick not to know what she was talking about.

A thought had just come to his mind.

But he just could not believe it.

Or it was better to say, it was unbelievable.

He felt that all kinds of feelings had welled up in his heart.

He was so shocked that he was not sure if it was real.

How ... could it be?

His hands kept loosening and tightening.

He was at a loss and speechless because of the mixed emotions in his mind.

"Everly..."

After a long time, he could only spit out these two words with his husky voice. He stared at her with a burning gaze.

"Yes." Everly nodded and said in a gentle tone, "You guessed it too, didn't you? I can understand the reason why you didn't tell me about what happened five years ago. Maybe it really was ... hard to speak out. Just like what I am doing now. So you know now, right?"

Maverick felt that the self-control he had always been proud of had disappeared at this moment.

He became so fiercely emotional that his eyes were even reddened, "Really? What you said ... is the same as what I thought?"

"Yes."

Everly said, "Edmond was born after the one-night stand between you and me."

It seemed like the whole world had fallen silent.

Only Everly's soft and gentle voice left, just like the most wonderful music in the world.

She continued, "At that time, my family didn't agree that I had a baby out of wedlock and didn't even know who the father of Edmond was. Parrish was the one that was mostly against this. He was a man who behaved himself and had been very strict with my education since I was a child. But at that time, I insisted on keeping Edmond, even though I was almost forced to have an induced abortion. It was Hendrix who helped me and sent me away from City C. Parrish even had a heart attack because of this. So all these years, I have no face to come back. I feel very sorry for my family."

Maverick couldn't help choked with sobs hearing this. His hands were tense and the veins on the back of them bulged, showing how excited he was at this moment.

Everly continued to confide, "In fact, it was quite hard to be a single mother at the beginning, but Edmond is very sensible since childhood. I never regretted giving birth to him. I have never thought of looking for his father. Edmond had asked me about that a few times. Edmond knew a lot even though he was just a child. He grew up in the United States since he was born, thus I would sometimes feel sorry for him for owing him the kinship and even failing to provide him good living conditions. At that time, I..."

Before she could finish, she was pulled into his arms.

The next second, she was kissed on the lips.

When Maverick came to understand everything, he couldn't help hugging her tightly. He was overjoyed!

Too overjoyed that he wanted to give her everything!

The way he hugged Everly was the same as that of an adult holding a child. Afraid of falling, Everly reached out her arms and wrapped them around Maverick's neck naturally.

With this posture, she had to lower her head.

While Maverick, on the other hand, did it very easily.

He could just kiss her by looking up.

And they kept wandering in the ward.

He didn't know what to say, so he wanted to do something. But he also didn't know what to do, so he wanted to hug her tightly.

She could stay away.

But she had a child for him!

How hard had she been all those years?

She had to earn a living in the United States as a single mother!

Thinking about this, he felt terribly sorry.

No wonder when he first saw Edmond at the airport, he liked him a lot.

Everything was destined.

For the first time, he felt that he was blessed.

When he was very little, someone had taken everything from him. So for the next few decades, he had not lived very well.

But now, he was having the best in his life.

His life was perfect!

"Everly." Maverick's thin lips were still pressed against hers. He placed her on the windowsill, where he could just look at her horizontally. He said in a husky voice, showing that he had gone through mood swings, "I don't know what to say, but now I feel very good. Everything is good."

Everly knew that he was happy and satisfied.

She was also the same.

"Me too," After a pause, she continued, "There are no other men. Five years ago, it was you. Now, it was still you. Edmond is your son. I just didn't expect that I could find you after all these."

"Remember?" Maverick said, "I said that the diamond I took at that time belongs to you, just like you have always belonged to me. Everly, thank you. Thank you for all these years. Everything's on me now..."

"Everything's on me now."

All the emotions were probably concentrated in these words.

Everly believed it for sure.

For them, it was like they had gone through a lot in this short time. But it was only between them as well.

Adults could quickly digest these unbelievable facts. What about Edmond?

Everly knew that he had always liked Maverick.

However, when it came to telling Edmond that Maverick was his father, she felt that she had to find a proper opportunity.

Maverick was quite confident about this, "There's no need to worry that he won't be able to accept it. On the contrary, Edmond will be very happy."

This problem could be solved later.

Sarah's death was a bigger problem.

Something that could not be ignored.
