A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

I Don't Have to Wait until Now If I Like Her

Everly was a little stunned.

Maverick gently pressed the corner of her lips with his hand. His gaze was soft, "Why don't you

continue? You are not angry now?"

It made Everly feel like an unreasonable child, though the man didn't show any disgust. She asked,

"What do you mean?"

"You don't have to worry about anything. You can just be yourself. You can say anything you want. You

don't have to beat around the bush. Because you are my girl. Do you understand?"

These words were like chocolate wrapped in colored paper.

It was so sweet that she was deeply touched.

"You... Don't you think I am just a nobody?" She pursed her lips and looked at Maverick with watery

eyes.

Maverick was a smart person, so he immediately got what she meant.

Actually, he felt that Everly was a proud little woman.

When she first met him, she was just a secretary. She could endure many things just because of his

casual words.

The people in the company had been gossiping about her behind her back. But she did not seem to

care much about it.

Because she believed that she was no worse than others. People who were inferior to her in ability and

gossiped behind were just jealous of her.

However, now she was somewhat uneasy.

Maverick leaned over and kissed her forehead, saying in a gentle voice, "Silly girl, how can you be

nobody? You are the woman I like. You are my baby. You cannot compare people in a simple way. You

think I am good. But there are people better than me. Do you want to know anyone of them?"

"I don't want to."

"That's right. And what about me?" Maverick flicked the tip of her nose and shook his head,

"Sometimes I think you are so smart, and sometimes I think you are silly. Elenore and I have known

each other for many years. Perhaps you think I knew her feelings and that I still chose to be her friend,

pretending to be blind to it. But it was just her own feelings. She helped me before. She didn't confess

her love so I don't have any reason to be cold to her. Also, if I like her, why should I wait until now?

Now you are by my side again. No matter how good she is, she can't compare to you, not even a bit."

No matter how good she was...

She could not compare to you, not even a bit.

Everly repeated those words over and over again. She carefully thought about them. Then, like soft

bubbles, they spread and filled her heart. It was magical and she felt secure.

She couldn't help but smile.

"She is not only excellent but beautiful. Don't you think so?" She pursed her lips like a spoiled child and

muttered, "And I think she can be of great help to you."

"Yes. That is true." Maverick said.

Everly was angry and said, "What do you mean? Do you really think she is prettier than me?"

Everly realized that she was being self-contradictory. So, she added, "Right. She is prettier than me. In

a word, she is better than me in everything."

Maverick was amused by her being grouchy and said, "Baby, you are so cute. Alright, it doesn't matter

whether you are beautiful or not. Do you remember what I told you a long time ago? I said I had many

choices if I wanted someone more beautiful than you to make fun of. But the fact is, I only want you."

Joy flashed across Everly's eyes.

'It seems that I have gone too far.' Everly thought.

But for some reason, she felt happy. It was like riding a roller coaster and she was almost flying. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

'So, it is true.'

'When women are in love, they like to hear such sweet words. They want constant affirmation from the

men they love.'

Everly wanted to become a better person.

"I will work hard."

"For what?"

"I will work hard to become someone worthy of you."

Maverick looked at her with his gentle eyes, "You don't have to do that. But I need you to start working

out."

As he spoke, his mouth was close to the corner of her lips. He looked into her eyes with distinct desire.

"Baby, do you know that you have fainted several times recently? Work hard to feed your man. OK?"

Everly wanted to say something.

But he kissed her and she could not resist.

Everly was shocked. This man has been travelling a lot for business. But he was always in high spirits

every time on the bed.

'How much energy exactly does a man have?'

...

Everly and Maverick were enjoying their happiness.

The Kahls, though in the same city, didn't have such a harmonious atmosphere.

Alex had been in City C recently. The Kahl family's share prices had dropped several times due to

Sarah. It was not yet settled so the broad impeached Alex.

Originally, he wanted to go to Italy and take Maverick's significant position. But what his useless

daughter did had caused great loss before he could get any profit.

Therefore, Alex was angry with Carolina.

As for Miley, she had felt good these days.

When one daughter made trouble, another one would get a better share of the father's love.

Carolina had been strained badly. The situation didn't get better until she gave the temporary project to

Alex.

The young ladies' expense had relied on the family's company. Alex froze almost all of their accounts

since the share prices fell.

And they had just got some of the cards back.

Carolina just finished a water massage and came back home. She saw Alex and Miley sitting in the

living room. They seemed to be discussing something. Miley was smiling and talking sweetly, "I think

this one is quite good. Oh, what about him? He is more suitable for Carolina. I think they have similar

temperaments. Dad, what do you think?"

Alex raised his eyebrows, "We may break off relations with Declan at any time now. I hope you can

help me. You have grown up and should not keep making trouble. I hope that you can win new partners

for our company by marriage. Your sister will get married soon. And the next one is you. But don't

worry, there are several candidates. You can choose by yourself."

Carolina was shocked. Before Miley replied, Carolina walked up to them with anger, "Dad... You want

me to get married?"

Alex raised his hand and threw the photos to her. Carolina looked at them and her expression changed.

No wonder Miley was so enthusiastic about it.

Carolina didn't know any of the men and they seemed to be from other countries.

His father was marrying her to a stranger.

She had studied abroad and met many guys.

Although she dated some of them, she had never thought about marrying someone and leaving her

motherland.
