A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

Chapter 154 Handsome and Romantic Man

Declan and Alex were just temporary alliances.

Were they people of the same kind? They were.

They both were people who only cared about profit and wanted to dominate the entire business circle.

But they were just too old to defeat the younger generation.

People like Maverick had given them a lot of pressure.

The Lamont family used to be one of the Big Four.

Ever since Maverick had taken over it, the Lamont family had broken away from them at a fast speed.

Of course, they had objections to this.

They used to share profit. But when Maverick came into power, he didn't show any respect and share

anything with them and even began to eat away the parts that belonged to them.

They were to be respected, not neglected.

They had tried to fight back. It was just that the foundation of the Lamont Group was so strong and

Maverick was so good at doing business that they were no match for him.

So they had accumulated a certain amount of resentment towards Maverick.

What happened this time directly led to them joining forces.

While they were all people with ulterior motives. They could fight against the common enemy together,

but it was hard to say they were of one mind.

Especially now that Alex had encountered troubles, Declan began to have another plan.

They were businessmen.

Declan thought that if he successfully snatch the Italian market from Maverick, he would not only make

himself famous but also expand the overseas market at the same time. It would be even more ideal if

he could have this all to himself.

While Alex also thought the same.

As a result, when Maverick got someone to contact Declan in Italy, Alex also got the news in City C.

Mental tactics were very important.

People who did not trust each other would easily part ways.

Maverick had made arrangements step by step, waiting for them to turn on each other.

...

And for now, Maverick did not pay much attention to this.

In business, whether it was a quick battle or a roundabout tactic, the wealth he had accumulated in Italy

a few years ago was enough for him to play all kinds of tricks and play with them till the end.

As he couldn't go abroad now, Maverick was thinking of talking with Edmond at a proper time.

However, what happened these days had caught much attention. Before Maverick could think of a

countermeasure, someone from the Lamont family had directly come to him.

Even though Maverick was one of the Lamonts, he was not close to them.

Especially to Levi.

Compared to Will, Levi was the one that Maverick disliked more.

In fact, Levi had asked Maverick several times. If it wasn't for that Maverick could keep a good mood

no matter what happened, he might not easily agree with having dinner together with Levi.

To Maverick, what was done was done.

But now he just couldn't let go when he thought of Edmond and the fatherly love that he lacked all This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

these years.

With that thought, he agreed to have a meal with Levi.

Everly was still in the hospital these days. Her eyes were fine, but it was for sure that there would be a

scar.

Now that the medical skills were well-developed, such a small scar was not a big problem. Everly did

not see it as important at all. As for Parrish, after the operation, his body was much weaker. She was

worried that Parrish would be angry, especially now that Sarah had died. The Farleys had blocked the

news from Parrish and Everly simply accompanied him in the hospital every day in case he was

thinking too much.

As expected, Parrish often complained to her about Maverick and persuaded her to stay away from him

from time to time.

In this regard, Everly did not answer directly, but also did not want to stimulate Parrish's mood, so she

basically avoided talking about Maverick.

While Parrish understood her well.

Back then when he disagreed with her giving birth to Edmond, she insisted, even with the price of

cutting off all ties with them. Now that she was in love, the way she did was just all the same. He was

just worried if this continued.

It was a problem for people who were not from the same world to fall in love.

"Has the little girl been at our home recently?" Parrish looked better today. He took a sip of water and

asked Everly who was sitting aside peeling an apple for him, "Has Maverick come back? His daughter

has always been at our home. If anything happens, it will be our responsibility. You are too careless."

Everly cut the apple and handed it over to Parrish.

Then she said in a low voice, "They took her back yesterday. She hasn't been to kindergarten recently.

People are still talking about them. Luckily she is only at this age, so they just asked a few more days

off for her."

"Maverick is back?"

"Dad, is the apple delicious?" Everly tried to skip the topic.

"What are you doing? You changed the subject every time I mentioned Maverick. What? Are you still

worried that I will be stimulated?"

Everly put on a fawning face, "Dad, I hope that you will be fine. Otherwise, I would like to take my heart

and give it to you."

Parrish snorted coldly, "That has to be a match. Just wait and see. Don't step back when the time

comes."

"Dad..."

"Look at you. Your beautiful eyes are now scarred. Don't tell anyone else that you are my daughter.

When I was young, I was well-known for being handsome and romantic. You are just embarrassing

me."

Everly was relieved to find Parrish joking.

However, at the time Parrish was bragging, Gloria just came in.

She immediately mocked, "Really? Handsome and romantic? But you only kept peeking at me when

you chased me. That is your romance? As for looking handsome, you should thank god that they look

like me."

Parrish was unconvinced and argued, "Daughters resemble fathers. This is an eternal law."

"Nonsense. You should think it twice about who Everly looks like."

"Hendrix is also handsome, but only seventy to eighty percent as that as I was when I was young."

"Shameless!"

...

Just as Everly was enjoying the show between them, Maverick called. So she got up and went outside

to answer the phone.

Parrish was busy arguing with Gloria, yet he still noticed Everly going out.

Seeing Everly go out, he immediately shut up and sighed, his face filled with worry.

Gloria knew clearly what he was worried about. She patted him on the shoulder and shook her head,

"Everly is already a mother. Don't worry too much. Take care of yourself. Otherwise, she will never be

at ease for the rest of her life. You know what? She always felt that your illness was because of her."

"Ridiculous!"

"So it is. You should be careful about your heart. We will worry about them, and vice versa. Maverick is

a good person, so let's just watch first. Don't be too fierce in opposition, or you'll make her feel

uncomfortable."
