A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

Are You Trying To Settle Scores?

Everly was not interested in knowing the grudges between them.

According to Everly's protective mentality, the first thing she thought of was that even if she was

informed, Beth should be the one who told her.

"You don't have to say this. I think what you did was unreasonable." Everly calmed down for a moment

and said very pertinently, "Miriam, you are Beth's sister. I used to call you sister, too. I actually don't

have the right to tell you what happened between the two of you. But Beth is my friend. I can't watch Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

her being kept in the dark. So, I think you should tell her yourself."

Miriam laughed, "Don't you know what kind of person my sister is? She won't see me."

"That's your problem. I won't speak up for anyone, but Beth is a good girl, and she will never cause

trouble without a reason."

Miriam was probably not convinced.

Miriam did not say anything. Maverick came and Lawrence did not leave.

Lawrence thought, 'In the middle of the night, Aunt Everly was here alone. She must be waiting for

Uncle Maverick to pick her up. Lucas left because Aunt Everly's got hurt, but now...

She was quite miserable.

Uncle Maverick contacted the people from the Bevell family. Lucas had his cards all stopped, not to

mention his work was gone. Lucas didn't spend much money, but it was like he was placed under

house arrest. His father had always respected Uncle Maverick very much. After Uncle Maverick said

that Lucas had a flaw in his work and needed to make improvements. Lucas's father had already

arranged for him to go abroad in the next half year.'

It was terrifying just thinking about it.

Lucas's trip would take at least three years, or at most five years.

Although Lawrence could not agree with what Lucas did, Lucas was still his younger brother. Lawrence

still felt sympathy for him.

Therefore, with the precedent, he didn't dare to leave just like that.

Indeed, after waiting for a while, he saw Uncle Maverick's car coming.

Lawrence did not say much. A person like Uncle Maverick would definitely not be interested in such

things. As expected, Uncle Maverick walked towards Aunt Everly the moment he got out of the car.

"Everly." Maverick did not know Miriam. At this time, he stood next to Everly. He reached out and

hugged the woman's waist with possessiveness and looked at Miriam with scrutiny.

This man was a bit cold, and his love and softness in the depths of his heart were given to Everly.

His standing in front of anyone would make one feel a bit fearful.

Miriam knew Maverick. Now that he was actually standing in front of her, she was at a loss for what to

do.

Lawrence stepped forward at this time and said to Maverick, "Uncle Maverick, take Aunt Everly home

first. This is my friend, and I will send her back."

Maverick only responded with a faint "Okay" and glanced at Everly, asking her for her assent.

Everly thought that she had said what she needed to say. Her gaze settled on Lawrence's face. After a

pause, she walked towards the car with Maverick.

When they were far away, Lawrence sighed. He was troubled about how should he explain to Beth

when he went back?

Miriam looked at Lawrence and asked, "You lied. Are you with Beth now?"

Lawrence knew that he couldn't hide it any longer. Everly must have said something to her just now. He

didn't want to hide anything. Then he said, "I'm with Beth now. I didn't tell you not because of you, but

because of Beth."

"Lawrence, you jerk. I have been by your side all these years." Miriam's expression turned cold.

"Miriam, I've been running around the world all these years. When have you been by my side? Can you

please calm down? Don't do this again..."

"I liked you first. You also liked me back then. You are just deceived by Beth. Why don't you believe

me? At that time, I was the one who saved you. It was me, Miriam, not Beth. Her name was Beth, but

her heart was harder than stone. Don't you know that? Lawrence, you're crazy that you should be with

her again."

Lawrence looked at Miriam and said in a low voice, "You are wrong. I have never left her. Miriam,

everything you think of is wrong. There was no me and you, I have always liked Beth."

Miriam was stunned and she almost lost her balance.

"I'm going to send you back to the hotel. It's late." Lawrence was unwilling to continue talking about this

in the middle of the night.

Miriam didn't say anything. Lawrence didn't care and just pulled her into the car and drove directly to

the hotel she was staying in.

-

Everly sat in the passenger seat and was still thinking about what had just happened.

"What's wrong?" Maverick reached out and pinched the back of her hand.

"It's nothing," Everly said, coming back to her senses.

She thought of something more important and said, "I met Carolina tonight."

"Did anything happen?" Maverick turned his face and his eyebrows became a little cold.

Seeing that she was unharmed, Maverick asked simply.

Everly smiled and shook her head, "No, I'm not a porcelain doll. She wouldn't do anything to me in

public. But I saw her with Gabriel."

Maverick raised his eyebrows, "I know that the two daughters of the Kahl family have been trying to

build a relationship with the Croke family recently. This is Alex's favorite method, but as far as I know,

Gabriel has a high taste."

He was indicating that Carolina was not good enough for Gabriel.

Everly knew that Gabriel was simple. The Croke family, including its company, were all controlled by

Gabriel. How could such a man agree to a business marriage with the Kahl family?

Carolina was probably thinking too naively.

However, when he said this, Everly could not help but tease Maverick, "You don't like Carolina this

much. Didn't you let her be by your side at that time?"

"You want to settle scores with me?"

"You started it."

Maverick reached out and pinched her little ear, then he answered seriously, "I never wanted any

woman to stay by my side, except for you. Whether it was abroad or in the country, sometimes I was

helpless, but Carolina indeed had her reason. At that time, she was so focused on getting close to me

and of course, I knew. I asked her to take care of Candy and I had asked someone to keep an eye on

her. It was also to relax Alex's vigilance."

Everly asked, "You've always wanted to deal with the Kahl family?"

"Not just the Kahl family, but also the Rice family and the Croke family." Maverick's eyes darkened as

he enunciated each word.
