A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married novel Chapter 177

Miley fanned the flames, "Carolina, you are not a child anymore. In fact, Dad is very considerate of you. Look at the embarrassing news about you. Who could accept your past? So don't waste time being picky. Just get married and leave here."

Carolina was already very angry. Miley was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. With a cold face, she retorted, "Then why don't you marry one of them? Why should I do that? I have nobody to rely upon abroad! Dad, I know you are mad at me due to what I have done. But no matter what, I don't want to go abroad. Last time you talked about the Rice family... I can marry into them."

Alex did not say anything. Miley said, "The Rice family? Carolina, you don't know what father is worried about, do you? Declan is foxy. We can't form a connection with the Rice family. We should ally ourselves with the Croke family."

'The Croke family?'

'The Croke family also had good young men.'

Carolina quickly searched her mind. The Crokes were not bad. She had focused on Maverick and ignored other people. Now that there was no hope on Maverick, Carolina would not let go of the second-best.

"Dad, I know Gabriel Croke, the oldest son of the Crokes. Can I go and meet him myself?" Carolina said in a low voice.

Alex glanced at his daughter, "Do you think Gabriel will marry you? Besides, I heard that Gabriel is seeing someone. The Croke family is basically under Gabriel's control. He had a younger brother. However, you are older than his brother. And Miley had been in contact with him. Do you think you have a chance?"

Carolina was upset and glared at Miley with some resentment.

"Dad, I really don't want to live abroad. Can you give me a chance?"

Miley still wanted to say something, but Alex interrupted her. He was not that cold-blooded and indifferent. He probably thought of the project in City L and said, "If you can find a suitable match, I won't force you to marry another man. But you have to know that my company is the most important. You have obtained a lot more than other girls over the years. Now it is time for you to do something for me in return. Understand?"

"Yes, Dad."

Then Alex left.

Carolina was furious and glared at Miley, "What the hell are you doing? You hit me when I'm down. Aren't you afraid of retribution!"

"What retribution?" Miley didn't seem to care and shrugged, "My dear sister, you have schemed against me many times. I have taken the blame for your previous scandal, right? We are the same kind of people. Don't pretend to be virtuous. You would kill me if you have the chance, wouldn't you?"

Carolina's chest heaved up and down as she got irritated. But she didn't continue to argue with her. It was pointless.

"It's me this time. The next one is you. It's still too early for you to celebrate. Also, can you win the heart of the Crokes' second son? Look at yourself. Can you compare to him? I am not looking down on you. But I think you know what kind of person he is."

"Thank you for your concern. Every man likes beautiful women and just wants to sleep with them. Carolina, I think you have been exhausted after dating so many guys. Right? But I am still young and passionate. I have many opportunities. Don't worry. The Kahl family won't break down as long as I am here."

Carolina didn't say anything else and went upstairs with her bag.

After entering the room, she still felt angry. She threw the cosmetics on the table away and smoked two cigarettes. Only then did she calm down a little.

Why did things become like this?

She was once a proud woman who owned a lot of things.

It was all because of Maverick... She had been by his side for so many years. But she had got nothing and even ended up in such a dilemma due to him.

She couldn't accept it.

She gave him her youth and love. But he refused, threw them on the ground and stomped on it.

'Maverick...'

'You are cold-blooded.'

Looking back on the past years, Carolina felt she had treated Candy wholeheartedly. But what had Candy done for her?

She was ungrateful and even more ruthless than Maverick.

The more Carolina thought about it, the angrier she became. Her chest was filled by the fire of anger.

...

Edmond and Candy saw Maverick the next morning.

The children were extremely happy.

Edmond held Maverick and kept asking when he could go to school.

Edmond was closer to his mother when he was abroad. Now that he came back home and spent more time with his father, they became intimate.

Maverick had breakfast with his children. Edmond asked again, "Dad, when can we go to school? It's boring at home. I want to play with my classmates."

"I'll get someone to send you there later. But if there is any problem at school, tell me at once. OK?"

When Edmond heard that he could finally go to kindergarten, he was very happy, "Really? OK. OK. And I will take care of my sister."

Maverick thought for a moment and said to his son softly, "Dad and Mom's identities are a little special. So, Edmond, don't tell anyone about us in school. Keep your identity a secret at the kindergarten for now."

Everly heard it.

It reminded her of something that her father mentioned before.

Edmond didn't have complicated thoughts and would just listen to his father. He immediately agreed. Maverick asked the driver to send them to the kindergarten. And he also asked Jayden to arrange bodyguards to follow them all day.

"When are we going to Italy?" Everly asked Maverick after the children left.

Maverick answered, "It depends on the situation. There is a problem with Lamont Group now. I need to deal with it and will stay here for the next few days."

Everly thought of what Hendrix had told her before and was a little worried, "Is it your big brother... I mean Zane. I have heard something."

Maverick rubbed Everly's long hair, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

"In fact, Beth told me something about Zane and you..."

"What is it?"

"Well... It's about Zane's first love. Actually... I didn't mean to inquire about your past, but I think it is not a coincidence that so many things happened recently. Maverick, don't you feel something strange about Zane? I know that your grandpa's resources have been handed to Zane due to Sarah's death. He has got the most benefit in this incident."
