A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

Chapter 124 Go to Learn and Help Me Take Care of Candy

Everly found the bathroom in Maverick's bedroom.

Although her family was not poor, to tell the truth, Maverick's bathroom was almost as large as her

entire room. She was a little shocked.

She knew that the Lamont family was rich, but when she worked as Maverick's secretary before, she

knew that there were many deficits in the Lamont Group before, which were made up by Maverick after

he took it over.

In fact, in the forum of Lamont Group, in addition to gossip about some of the company's higher-ups,

there was something about the company's performance and the profitability of various projects.

Everly did see it in those days.

It was said that Maverick had not only spent a lot of money to buy most of the scattered shares of

Lamont Group, but also took the shares of the higher-ups of the Lamont family with an absolutely

overwhelming price.

In other words, he had been preparing for this after he returned from Italy.

Others thought that it was easy for him to get the Lamont Group. In fact, Maverick did not have a good

relationship with the Lamont family, and he bought the company with large amounts of money.

Everly could not help but wonder what exactly did he do for a living beyond seas?

'It seems to be quite mysterious. No specific details have been found when I was looking for investment

before.' Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

She stood on the edge of the bathtub and was still thinking about these things, unaware that someone

was approaching from behind.

When the man's chin was on her shoulder, Everly suddenly came to her senses.

"What are you thinking? Why do you stand here like a little fool? Aren't you going to take a shower?"

Maverick's hot breath was blowing in her ear.

Everly felt that she was probably overthinking, so his words had some hidden meaning to her.

However, a man and a woman alone didn't need any hints at this time.

She struggled for a moment, but Maverick simply pulled her over. The two of them faced each other.

Everly had nowhere to hide this time. The man sighed softly, "Still upset?"

He was talking about Carolina.

Everly calmed down and said very naturally, "It's impossible to feel well, but it's not that I don't believe

in you. With your status, you don't need to lie to me."

Hearing her word, Maverick was quite happy. "It's good that you believe me. I'll note that in the future."

"Maverick."

"Yes?"

"If ... I mean if, Edmond's father..." When Everly said this, she suddenly paused. How should she say?

'If Edmond's father is also from City C, and you are in the same social circle...'

...

What a mess.

"Edmond's father? And then?" Maverick asked as she broke off in the middle of a sentence.

Everly was still hesitating about how to organize her words.

Maverick misunderstood her, and said in a low voice, "You have your past, and so do I. Everly, I have

always wanted to tell you that my life in Italy wasn't as simple as you think. So, don't always think

you're not good enough for me because of your past. You are the love of my life, before and after,

forever."

He said so much, and when he said the word "before", Everly did not hear the implication.

But when she heard the word "Italy", she could not help but ask, "When you were in Italy, was it hard

for you?"

"No one could succeed by accident. Everly, I have never told anyone why my relationship with the

Lamont family was so bad."

"Why?"

"Do you know that there was a Waller family in C City?"

Everly was surprised. When she was in college, the Waller family and their group were very famous.

However, it had indeed disappeared for many years.

That should be nearly twenty years ago.

Anyway, she was young then. The Waller family was the most famous business family in C City. At that

time, Hendrix did not succeed, and no one knew about the Farley family. She was not familiar with the

upper society, not knowing what kind of family the Waller family was.

Later, the Waller family "vanished" overnight.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that it had vanished.

At that time, the Waller family was a big cheese in the business world. However, all the companies in

the group were in debt overnight, and were involved in the commercial lawsuits. The person in charge

of the group was reported, and several of his cousins committed suicide by jumping off the building.

After that, there was no news of the Waller family in C City.

It only took a few days for the media to report crazily about the news of the Waller family, and then it

was obvious that someone had blocked all the information channels.

From then on, great changes had taken place in C City, and the Waller Family had become four

families.

They were the Lamont family, the Kahl family, the Rice family, and the Croke family.

"I know the Waller family. It was many years ago." Everly thought that Maverick would not mention this

for no reason. 'The Waller family... was related to him?'

"My mother is from the Waller family." Maverick's tone was indifferent. When the Waller family went

bankrupt, he was only in his teens, but could already distinguish between right and wrong.

However, he didn't have the ability to take revenge.

"I'll tell you about it." He was obviously not going to mention what happened in the past today, but he

was willing to tell Everly these things. "My mother has been in Italy all these years and is fine. She has

never been in good health. In the past few years, she had to count on medicine to maintain her health,

and became slightly better in recent years. At the worst, she had to..."

He paused. Everly could hear a trace of bitterness in his voice. She felt distressed for him.

"Tell me about it later."

It must have been very miserable.

After all, back then, the Waller family had really caused a stir in C City. However, such a tall and

towering tree had been uprooted. No one knew how much pain Maverick had felt as a tiny root of it in

those years.

Too many things had happened today, and she did not want Maverick to recall those anymore.

"I have a purpose to keep Carolina by my side." Maverick said, "Jenson has always been eyeing the

Lamont family covetously. In fact, C City is not as calm as it seems. The Kahl family and the Rice family

are currently working together, and I'm in charge of the Lamont family now. They are going to unite

against me."

Maverick said, "Actually, it wouldn't be so bad if you weren't my secretary. I remember you said that you

wanted to learn something. Go and do it."

"By the way, help me take care of Candy, Okay?"

Everly muttered, "Now you want me to take care of her. It was not me before."

"Not the same."

"What's the difference?"

Maverick hugged her. He held her buttocks and walked towards the table on the side. He placed her on

the table and squeezed his body between her legs. With one hand on the table, he gently pinched her

waist.

"Let me tell you now what the difference is."

He kissed her softly.
