Chapter 122 Stay!
Chapter 122 Stay!
Edmond had been very supportive of his mommy and Uncle Maverick being together.
Spending just a night in Uncle Maverick's house? He was all for it. And now, Uncle Maverick was even
using models to "lure" him. Edmond felt that Uncle Maverick did not need to ask whether he wanted to
stay a night at his house. His answer must be yes.
Of course, it would be even better if Uncle Maverick asked.
"That's great! Mommy, let's go to Uncle Maverick's house."
Maverick took a tissue at the side and handed it to Everly, who had been hinting at him. He said with a
gentle and harmless, "Edmond wants to go. You wouldn't say no to him, right?"
Everly gritted her teeth and glared at Maverick, who had succeeded in his trick. But because there
were two kids, she knew it was not good to throw a fit. She said to Edmond, "Sweetie, you forgot you
could not sleep in a different bed."
That was the truth, but Edmond ignored this point at this moment.
"Mommy, I don't. It's a bed in Uncle Maverick's house. I will treat it as mine."
Everly was speechless. "Hey, kid, what you said is losing our face."
"What is losing face? I think I'm not." Edmond blinked his eyes innocently. "Only monsters don't have a
face," Edmond said.
Everly lost her words.
Candy agitated and said, "Auntie Everly, you should come. So I can share my toys with Edmond
tonight."
Everly still wanted to decline, but Maverick didn't give her any room to say no. He helped her decide
directly. "The thing I bought from the auction has been prepared. I have asked someone to redesign it
for you. Come to my place, and I'll give it to you." said Maverick.
Everly knew it was the pink diamond.
She never wanted to accept such an expensive gift.
But Maverick's attitude was apparent. He wanted to give it to her, and she must accept it.
The words he said in the elevator that day still rang in her ears. Everly blushed, knowing that she had
to go to his place tonight.
She no longer tried to resist and followed Maverick to his place.
On the way, Everly said this to her mother.
But it was hard to say that she was taking her son to a man's house for the night.
After thinking about it, she still lied. She just told her mother that she would company Beth. Because
Beth had just relocated, and she would take Edmond with her.
Gloria trusted her daughter very much and didn't ask much.
Everly put away her phone and found that the two kids were asleep on her lap. Probably they were
tired from playing during the day.
Her eyes were soft and kind. She did not make too much of a move to wake them up.
After arriving at Maverick's villa, both of them got out of the car. Maverick knew that the kids were
asleep, so he picked them up, holding one in each arm. It was pretty easy for him.
The man looked thin, but Everly knew very well that his body was full of strength.
She obediently followed behind the man and walked towards the gate of the villa.
This was not the first time she had been here. She had driven Maverick once before home. But this
was the first time she brought her son into his home.
One step at a time, followed by this man, Everly had felt she entered his world.
Everly had been a little nervous, but now she felt more natural.
There were many things that she had to try before she knew whether it was suitable or not.
After taking the first step, she no longer had any thoughts of retreating.
But most of the time, things went against her wishes.
In such a warm scene, Everly just had a feeling of being protected. Suddenly it was ruined by an
uninvited guest.
It was Carolina. This was the second time Everly met her.
In Maverick's villa.
Everly thought, "God, can you love me for just one time? It was already an awful day; then you bring
this woman here. What exactly do you want to do to me?"
She had never been a generous person. It was unbearable to see such a woman, wearing pajamas,
just taking a shower, in his villa when she found she fell in love with Maverick. What else was she
supposed to think about the relationship between Maverick and the woman?
The woman just happened to come down from the stairs.
Seeing others were coming back with Maverick, Carolina flashed with a trace of surprise.
She looked a little panicked.
She said, subconsciously, "Maverick, I... I thought that Candy was alone at home today, so I came over.
I accidentally dirtied my clothes and took a shower."
She seemed to be very anxious to explain.
But no matter what the truth was, whether Everly was willing to believe it, there was nothing wrong
between Maverick and Carolina. A woman's intuition was telling Everly that the woman in front of her,
pretending to be delicate, just wanted to make her unhappy.
But the truth was she did become unhappy.
Maverick was gloomy. He did not expect Carolina was here. It seemed that all the servants in the family
had to be replaced.
He didn't say anything, but his thoughtful expression made everything clear.
Carolina looked a little flustered. Her mind went completely blank.
Particularly when she saw Maverick holding the boy.
'Maverick was the one who had released the rumors and who humiliated me in such an unbridled
manner because he was angry that I had deliberately pretended not to have an affair with any man
these years. But now, how could he explain that he brought another woman to his place?'
'He was okay with a woman, having a man before and a five-year-old child. But why he didn't accept
me?'
'Everyone was the same. Men had played us all.'
'I did dally with other men in the old days. But what this Everly did is much worse than me.'
How could you fancy a woman like her?
'She even had a child with another man. But you, Maverick, chose her but not me.'
Carolina held back her anger. She tightly gripped the handrail of the stairs, and even her fingernails
were turning white.
"I'll go upstairs and get changed."
She knew that she could not be impudent right now, so she turned around and walked towards the
room upstairs.
But she also knew that Everly would not be indifferent. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
It was true. But fortunately, the two kids were sleeping. If they saw this, it could be very awkward.
Everly secretly sighed. She wanted to take her son from Maverick, but the man didn't let her do it. He
leaned slightly and avoided her movements.
Everly looked up at him and said. "I'll take Edmond home. At least you should handle these things
carefully, right? Although your villa is big, my heart is not that big."
"My heart is small."
What did this mean?
It meant that she was jealous.
Maverick, who was gloomy, suddenly felt a little excited. He patiently explained, "I don't know. In the
past, she could indeed come over casually. It was me who didn't handle it well. But I won't let you down
again. Stay!"
