A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 155

Everly stood at the window at the end of the corridor and answered Maverick's call.

It was almost time for lunch. He asked her on the phone, "Have you eaten yet?"

Everly hadn't eaten yet. She didn't eat the food from the hospital now, which was not to her liking.

Gloria brought food over every day. Just now, she brought lunch. Everly could eat it later.

"My mother brought it here. What about you?"

Maverick directly told her, "I'll have lunch with my grandfather."

Everly knew that the relationship between Maverick and the Lamont family was not very good. Since he suddenly had lunch with Levi, she naturally thought of the recent events.

"Is it because of Sarah?"

"No." Maverick directly denied, "He won't take it to heart at all. It's just a meal. Don't think too much about it."

"You told me before that your relationship is not very good."

"Well, this has little to do with lunch."

"Well, are you busy in the afternoon?"

Maverick seemed to ponder for a moment before saying, "I have to go to the police station. I have to follow up on Sarah's matter at all times. If the police come to you recently, inform me immediately. There is no need to say too much. This matter has nothing to do with you, but they may ask you some questions."

After a pause, he continued, "If you don't want to deal with it, you can tell me. I will arrange it."

Everly said, "There's no need to go through so much trouble. I'm willing to cooperate with the necessary procedures. Now, everyone knows that she was murdered. In fact, I'm quite willing to cooperate with the investigation so that she can get justice."

"You can do whatever you want, but at this critical juncture, pay attention. Can you remove the gauze today?"

"Yes, the doctor will remove it for me this afternoon."

"Don't worry. Even if there's a scar, it can be removed. I will help you find the best doctor."

Everly teased him with a smile, "If I really have a scar, will you dislike me?"

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"You are so eager to make me mend my scars."

Maverick was speechless. At this time, he couldn't find proper words.

In the end, he said nervously, "Everly, how could I dislike you? That's not what I meant."

If not for Sarah's sudden death, with Maverick's personality, how could he let her off so easily?

Sarah had injured Everly's eyes, so he would definitely fight back.

However, Sarah was dead, so it was meaningless.

Everly was amused. Only then did Maverick realize that she was deliberately joking with him. "Are you kidding me?"

"Are you really nervous?"

"I was afraid you would be unhappy." Maverick smiled and said, "In the past, I really didn't think that it was difficult to deal with women. Now, I think it was."

"Do you think it's difficult to deal with me?"

"No matter how difficult it is, I still want you. Baby, I will pick you up in the evening. Take Edmond and Candy today. There is no one in the Farley's now. I will talk to Edmond tonight."

"Are you going to tell Edmond?" Everly paused, her tone serious.

"I have to say it." Maverick considered a lot, "Didn't I tell you before? Candy's birthday is coming. I thought that before Candy's birthday, I should let Edmond know it. He is a sensible child. This is my responsibility. Just leave it to me."

Everly thought of something. "The last time you told me about Candy's birthday, I didn't tell you that actually, Edmond's birthday is on the same day as Candy."

"Really?" Maverick was really surprised.

"Yes." Everly also felt that it was too much of a coincidence and said with a smile, "I thought it was really a coincidence before, but I have checked. They were indeed born on the same day."

"Maybe it is destined."

"I feel that Edmond won't reject it too much. If you need me to cooperate, just tell me."

"Just be a little more obedient."

Everly's tone was a little coquettish. "Obedient? I am not a child."

"I hope that you are a child. I will raise you."

She felt so sweet while she pretended to complain.

They talked on the phone for a long time. In the end, it was Gloria who asked her to hurry up and eat. Only then did she hang up the phone reluctantly.

Gloria looked at her daughter and couldn't help but mutter, "Are you in the honeymoon? You're not young, but you are so affectionate. God."

Everly was a little embarrassed by her mother's words.

She held at the new phone and talked back. "Mom, isn't dating ... like this all the time? Besides, what's the point of not dating like this?"

"You even talked back. You used to be in a relationship when you were in school, but I never saw you like this."

At this point, Everly could not help but sigh. "You're right. Lucas and I have known each other for so many years. At that time, it was me who chased after him. I really don't feel this way."

"So you have decided?"

"What?"

"About Maverick." Gloria glanced at her daughter, thought for a moment, and said, "I'm not against you. Actually, about the man you choose, I only care about his character. I can see that he is a good and well-educated man. But, think about it carefully. There is a great distance between you two. I don't want you to work too hard. I also asked around and found out that the family relationship of the Lamont family is quite complicated, and Maverick's mother has been abroad all the time, right? I heard that she was the eldest daughter of the Waller family back then."

Maverick had only roughly told her this.

Everly said honestly, "Yes, Maverick's mother has always been in Italy."

"Did he tell you this?"

"He mentioned a little."

"The incident of the Waller family had caused a stir in City C back then. It was very tragic. However, what we know is only on the surface. Children who grew up in such an environment must have had a hard time. Don't make it hard for yourself."

"Mom, what are you talking about? Maverick treats me very well."

Gloria asked, "What about Edmond's biological father? Didn't you ask your brother to find him? Have you thought about it?"

Everly pursed her lips. Thinking about this, she should let her parents know about it sooner or later.

She had only confirmed it yesterday and really had no time to say it today.

Now that Gloria mentioned it, Everly gave it all and said, "I found Edmond's biological father."

"What? When? Who is it?"

"It is Maverick."
