Elenore had never seen this side of Maverick.
Even the woman that Maverick had protected many times before might not be as "aggressive" as this interview video.
Elenore was so jealous.
She never believed that Maverick would be moved by other women. But now she saw how Maverick liked someone else.
Then, Elenore realized that Maverick just didn't like her before.
That was why he acted polite and distant.
As well as cold and indifferent.
Elenore thought Maverick was just a cold person but now she found that he knew how to smile and how to be gentle. He could dote on someone too.
He just didn't do all of these towards her.
All the pride on Elenore's face fell apart at this moment.
'Why?'
'That's unfair!'
'That woman is nobody! She has nothing! But she stole my man so easily!'
'How can I swallow this?'
'If I can't have him, nobody should!'
Elenore closed the computer.
The light in her eyes was dense.
As a woman, Elenore had been so successful in business. She was certainly more heartless than many men.
...
In the United States.
Everly wanted to cook dinner, but Maverick wouldn't allow her to do it.
He wanted to ask the chef to prepare dinner.
Everly was kind of helpless. She said, "I haven't been in the kitchen for a long time, but I'm not that bad at cooking."
"Oil and smoke are not good for you." Maverick was determined.
To be honest, Everly was pretty happy.
She wasn't able to stick with Maverick in the past for some reason. But now Everly found that Maverick was sweet when he acted normally.
"Don't exaggerate! It won't harm me going to the kitchen once in a while!"
"You don't have to do this. But if you insist, let me do it, and you just need to wash the ingredients for me, okay?"
Everly looked surprised. "You can cook?"
"Why wouldn't I?"
So Everly followed Maverick into the kitchen happily. But when everything was ready, they found that the stove no longer worked.
Everly rubbed her nose in embarrassment. "I had no idea. Maybe it's because we haven't used it for too long."
If Edmond and Candy were biological brother and sister, at this age, Everly wouldn't worry.
But they were not.
After Edmond fell asleep by Everly's side, Everly was still a little worried.
She thought that the two kids would need to keep some distance in their adolescence. After all, they didn't have the same mother.
Maverick smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. They are half-siblings! I'm their father!"
Everly said in a low voice, "I always feel sorry for Candy. She is a poor girl. I wish her to be safe and happy forever. So, I've made up my mind. Although I might feel weird, I think you should try to find her mother."
"I understand. I have already asked people to investigate." Maverick said, "It was the Kamo family taking care of Candy. I didn't have any choice. They forced this child on me so they could control me. However, if they did not deliberately hide anything, I could quickly find out Candy's mother no matter who she was."
Everly nodded.
The bed was not very big, so it was somewhat crowded when they were both lying in it.
Maverick was tall and big. Everly's bed was just for one person. In the first half of the night, the two were stuck together. However, Maverick was soon turned on.
Everly wanted to push him away but she couldn't. The bed started to make a noise. The sound insulation of this house was not good. So Everly was shocked. She twisted her waist to the busy man. "Be gentle. The children would hear it!"
Maverick didn't care.
He kept biting her ear, teasing her with words. Everly urged him to hurry up. She couldn't take it anymore.
A few hours later, Maverick carried her to take a bath as usual.
In the latter half of the night, Everly was much more energetic.
Maverick asked her, "Did you feel lonely at night when you were alone?"
