Chapter 418 Miss Lawrence

Maverick remembered that after Kailey told him the shocking news in the ward, he was too shocked to say anything. He couldn't find a suitable word to describe his complicated feelings. Everly was Candy's mother. It turned out that she had given birth to two children at that time. God gave him a surprise!

Maverick didn't show his joy. He seldom showed his emotions. Even in front of Kailey, he was used to controlling himself, because he didn't want her to worry about him.

They were both smart people, especially Maverick. They had soon found something. Kailey must have known the secret from the very beginning.

Kailey had just woken up from her coma. Maverick couldn't say anything to blame Kailey, but he was disappointed. Her eyes dimmed. Lowering his eyes, he loosened her grip on Kailey.

Kailey was sad. She looked at Maverick. His expressionless face was more depressing and made her more guilty than his angry eyes. She would rather he questioned her.

But Maverick didn't. He just kept a distance from her and stood with his hands down. His handsome features were covered with sternness, rejecting her.

Kailey didn't dare to look at him again and avoided eye contact.

Maverick didn't say anything else. He stood there quietly for a while, and then said in a calm voice, "Have a good rest first. I'll come to see you later."

He could guess the reason.

Kailey had gone through a lot of dangerous situations. Perhaps it was not until she faced death that she finally understood life.

However, Maverick was not in the mood to comfort her at the moment. The ecstasy of meeting her faded away. The air in the room seemed to freeze and was unable to flow.

He could feel anger. He loved his parents, but he wouldn't forgive them unconditionally for whatever they did.

"I'm sorry." Kailey's voice came from behind. Maverick didn't turn around. He just stood there for a while and then strode out of the place.

After a night, when Maverick came to his senses, it was already morning.

He saw his eyes in the mirror, which were red, but not tired. The sunlight shone into his eyes, which were astonishingly bright.

When Maverick was about to go back to wash his face and brush his teeth, his phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number calling him in the early morning. He answered the phone without hesitation. A low and charming female voice came from the other end of the phone. She asked him in fluent English, "Is that Mr. Maverick?"

"Who are you?"

"Mr. Maverick, you forgot me so soon. I saved you before."

Sofia thought Maverick wouldn't forget her. "Do you remember my name?"

Maverick ignored her roundabout manner and said, "There is no room for negotiation between us."

It was they who did the kidnap first. He sent them away and settled all the problems.

Maverick was not a good man, especially when it came to this kind of thing.

Maverick knew that Sofia had feelings for him, so he didn't want to say anything more. He didn't want to waste his time on irrelevant people. On the other side, Sofia changed the topic. "How about we make a deal?"

Maverick was a businessman, and Sofia's suggestion was particularly for him. If it was in the past, Maverick might think about it, but now he was not in the mood to care about someone else.

"I'm not interested in making a deal with you."

He was full of arrogance.

He said he was not interested, but actually, he looked down on it.

Maverick hung up the phone and turned it off.

It was very quiet at home now.

In Candy's room, Maverick saw the mother and daughter sleeping side by side. They looked like each other a lot though he hadn't felt so in the past.

Warm feelings welled up in Maverick's heart. He was grateful to Everly, who was his lucky star.

God was good to him.

He sat on the edge of the bed and quietly looked at their sweet sleeping faces for a long time. The corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, and the expression on his face was unprecedentedly gentle.

...

Everly woke up and looked at Candy's face affectionately. The little kid was still in her dream, probably because she stayed up late last night. After all, children usually went to bed early.

Everly didn't wake her up but went to the kitchen to make breakfast after washing up.

"Good morning, Mom."

Candy and Edmond said.

Everly turned off the heat and put the last piece of pancake on the plate.

"What kind of sauce do you want to eat? Maple syrup or chocolate sauce?"

The two kids both chose chocolate paste.

After taking the kids to freshen up, she sat at the table to have dinner.

Candy asked, "Where is Daddy?"

Everly looked at the little girl's watery eyes and felt sweet before she started to eat. She smiled more gently and said, "Daddy is still sleeping. He must be tired yesterday. Let's eat first, okay? Let him have a good rest."

Candy was an obedient and sensible child, so she nodded obediently.

She took a look at Edmond, who gave her a reassuring expression, indicating her to have a good breakfast first.

The two kids winked as Everly watched them, thinking that Everly couldn't see them do that, but in fact, both of their expressions were seen by Everly.

After breakfast, Everly announced today's travel plan.

Of course, Maverick was not included. He was still sleeping, and Everly didn't intend to wake him up. After all, it was rare for him not to wake up till now at home.

When Maverick realized that he had overslept, Everly had already arrived at the amusement park. She had a good time with Beth and the kids.

Beth liked to stay at home. If it hadn't been for Everly's repeated invitation and the fact that she was afraid of making mistakes with her two children, she wouldn't have gone out. When she came out, she found that the amusement park was quite interesting.

Everly took the child to the merry-go-round because Edmond stressed that he was a big child and he would sit alone, while Everly and Candy sat in the pumpkin carriage of Cinderella, following the merry-go-round.

"Look here."

The sound of the camera rang. When Beth was about to take another picture, a phone call came.

Everly sat in the car, holding Candy's soft body in her arms. Suddenly, she had a strong feeling that the result of the paternity test came out.

Although she didn't show it on her face, her heart beat faster and faster. She swallowed hard, and everything around her became dreamy. The noise around her was not in her world, but a fake background. After a circle, she went back to the beginning. Beth looked at her.

The world was still.

With a relieved smile, Beth made an "OK" gesture.

At that moment, everything around Everly became lively again.

Everly's heart skipped a beat.

It was so absurd, ridiculous, and happy.

The merry-go-round's background music overtook Everly's first uncontrollable cry. Sadness and joy overwhelmed her from the bottom of her heart. She was out of control.

Fate was unpredictable. Looking at Everly who was holding Candy in the carriage, Beth felt that her eyes were a little wet.

'Well, I suddenly miss Lawrence,' Beth thought.
