A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

Chapter 53 He Is in Her Dreams Whenever She Closes Her Eyes

The schedule of the business trip was tight.

To Everly, she was eager to arrive today, deal with those things and return to City C the next day.

She had always been concerned about her son's parents' meeting. After all, this was the first time since

her son came to this kindergarten. She did not want Edmond to be disappointed.

However, Maverick did not give an exact time. Moreover, after that kiss, their relationship caused

Everly to go crazy.

After she woke up from that dream, Everly wanted to explode on the spot.

She reached out and hugged her forehead. Her palms were covered in sweat and she was wet all over.

Although five years ago, that experience was hard to understand, she knew that she had been

abnormal lately.

She had another wet dream.

And Maverick was in it.

Not to mention the feelings, his face was in front of her and his hoarse speech made when he was on

top of her turned her on.

She felt that she was going crazy.

When Jayden called her and told her that they would meet in the parking lot half an hour later, Everly

was seriously considering whether she should continue to stay by Maverick's side as the so-called

secretary.

She didn't know what Maverick was thinking, but she wasn't an ignorant child.

She felt that Maverick was special.

She was even thinking that if it was another man, would her heart beat violently? Would she accelerate

her breathing and have that man's face in her dreams?

Everly shook her head. She wasn't sure, but she was 80% sure that she would despise that guy.

Was it just because it was Maverick?

Because he was such a brilliant man?

He was in her dreams whenever she closed her eyes.

But she didn't dare to tell him.

And she couldn't.

...

She felt that she was trapped in a quagmire. She could not stay but should leave.

Everly washed her face and looked at the time. It was already dusk. She took out her phone. There

were a few calls from Hendrix.

Everly drank a mouthful of water and moistened her throat before calling back.

The call was picked up soon.

"Everly, you and Maverick are on a business trip?" It seemed that Hendrix already knew.

"Yes, I'm in Weirdale."

"Weirdale?" Hendrix thought of something and replied, "Lamont Group has a project in Weirdale. It was

promoted by Maverick after he took over. There seems to be something wrong with it. At present,

Maverick may have had a news blackout."

Hearing this, Everly asked out of curiosity, "Is it serious?"

"Maverick went there personally. He will definitely be able to handle it." Hendrix said, "It is the Puth

family's territory and its second young master is close to Maverick. But why did he bring you there?"

"I am the secretary." Everly was stunned.

"There's no need to bring the secretary along." After Hendrix said this, he did not continue. He only

asked, "When will you be back? Edmond said that there is a parents' meeting, and you agreed to go.

Can you make it?"

Everly had a headache. "I know. The business trip was decided on an ad hoc basis. I didn't expect it at

that time. Where's Edmond?"

"I'm not home. Mom insisted on following the driver to pick Edmond up these days. Since you are not

here, she was the one who drove Edmond this morning."

"I'll confirm the time tonight," Everly said, "If I can make it, I'll definitely hurry back."

Hendrix received a phone call and only answered perfunctorily. He obviously had something to say, but

he was hesitant.

"You have things to do?"

"It's about that man five years ago." Hendrix's words came to a halt. "Forget it. I can't explain it on the

phone. I'll talk to you when you are back."

When Everly heard him say "five years ago", her heart skipped a beat.

However, he couldn't tell a clear story on the phone, and she didn't have much time.

After hanging up and tidying up, Everly went to the parking lot.

While standing in the elevator, Everly was somewhat dazed as she thought of Hendrix's words.

"There's no need to bring the secretary along."

Her gaze landed on the face reflected on the interior of the elevator.

Almost instinctively, she reached out to pinch her face, smiled, and then pursed her lips.

Actually, she had ordinary facial features, didn't she?

Her temperament wasn't bad, but it wasn't comparable to those rich ladies'.

She was indeed good-looking, but she was definitely not the kind that could overwhelm every man in

the country.

So, on what?

Because he was suddenly interested in her?

After all, rich people's tastes often changed. They would have a sumptuous meal yesterday but plain

food on the next day.

Everly sighed. She had to admit that she herself was part of those "plain food". RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

As soon as the elevator door opened, she gathered herself and walked out.

Jayden was waiting for her by the car.

Everly stepped forward and Jayden said to her, "Maverick will bring you over. He will discuss some

details with the supplier. I have prepared all the documents for you."

As he spoke, he handed her a blue folder.

Everly took it and asked, "You are not going?"

"I have other things to attend to." Jayden nodded and left without turning his head.

Everly glanced at the black car window, but she couldn't see anything from outside.

However, she always felt that Maverick was sitting right there. Even if they were separated by the

window, she could still feel the pressure brought by him.

She gripped the folder, walked to the passenger seat, opened the door, and sat in.

As expected, the moment she entered, she felt the oppressive atmosphere.

Just as the driver was about to start the car, the man sitting behind suddenly said, "Who told you to sit

in the front? Sit over here."

Everly was speechless.

Just as the driver was about to start the engine, Maverick spoke. He stopped and carefully looked at

the female secretary in the passenger seat.

He wasn't Maverick's chauffer in City C, so he didn't know that this secretary had a relationship with

Maverick.

Everly felt a little displeased in her heart. Shouldn't the secretary be sitting in the passenger seat?

But when she thought of what he said. On what?

She wanted to retort, and it was already on her lips yet she held back. She obediently opened the car

door and replied softly, "Alright, Mr. Maverick."

Then, she pulled open the door to the back seat and got in.

Maverick succeeded in letting her sit beside him, but he started to feel a little anxious.

The driver began driving.

He glanced at the woman sitting beside him and coldly curved his lips.

She was sitting so close to the door. How repulsive was he?

Just as he was about to say something, he received a call. It was the ringtone set for Candy.

Maverick's expression changed slightly. He almost subconsciously turned to look at Everly.
