A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

Chapter 191 Edmond Was Missing

This was not the first time someone had mentioned the Waller family to Everly.

Everly knew Beth's ability, it was easy for her to find out what the Waller family was like back then.

But it was already like this, Everly actually did not need to know this through the third person.

'Perhaps I should talk to Maverick about the matter of the Waller family back then?' Everly thought.

Seeing that Everly was like this, Beth knew that Everly would not force her to investigate anything. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

The two good friends had not seen each other for a while, and it was rare for them to relax. They

thought of some things from before and chatted for a while.

Beth said, "I heard that Lucas was sent abroad. Have you ever thought that it was Maverick who did all

this?"

Everly didn't care what Lucas was doing. They were like strangers now. Moreover, it was awkward to

mention Lucas when she and Maverick were in such a situation.

However, Beth's words still reminded Everly -

Some relationships were destined.

One day, the Lamont family would let Edmond acknowledge their ancestors. It was a fact that she and

Lucas had a history. The ties of blood were the most tenacious and wonderful existence in the world.

What a mess.

Everly avoided the topic and just said, "Sometimes, I also feel that Maverick is a bit paranoid. But I

think that maybe people with too much personality are like this. I need you to help me to investigate

what that woman who called Elenore exactly did. As for the other things, leave it to me, I will talk to

Maverick."

"Sure," Beth raised an eyebrow.

"Sometimes, I feel that you are worthy of my admiration," Beth said with a sigh.

"What is it?" Everly asked.

"The communication between people is not as simple as it says. In my life, the most difficult thing is

how to communicate with people. Everly, I'm thinking, should I also communicate with Miriam?"

In the end, they were sisters, sisters who came out of their mother's womb. No matter what

misunderstandings there were, blood relations couldn't be separated.

"If you are willing to, I think you should give each other a chance. If there are any problems, just tell

me." Everly said.

...

The wind at night seemed to have become gentle.

The two of them lay on the hood of the car, looking at the few stars in the sky.

They hummed the song they liked the most when they were in school, completely relaxed. They only

left the mountain after more than two hours.

There was a saying, extreme joy brings sorrow.

Although Everly had not reached a state of extreme joy, she was suddenly told that Edmond was

missing after she returned home. Everly got the sorrow part.

Gloria and Parrish had already gone crazy from anxiety. After all, the child had been lost under their

watch.

Everly left after dinner. At that time, Edmond was watching TV in the living room. When Everly left,

Edmond even kissed her and very sensibly told Everly to be careful on the way as usual.

Although it was a little late for Everly to go home now, it had only been three hours since Everly left,

how could Edmond just have disappeared.

"Everly, it's all my fault. If it wasn't because I didn't look after Edmond well, he wouldn't have... It was

my fault. What should I do now?" Gloria said with swollen eyes.

"It's our fault, you haven't been living here for the past few days. We missed Edmond a lot. He said that

he wanted to eat ice cream. And there was nothing left in the refrigerator, so I asked your mother to buy

some. But Edmond said that he wanted to go, so your mother took him out. Who knew..." Parrish said

with guiltiness. It was rare for him, who usually wanted to save face, to be so humble at this time.

When Everly heard this, she had probably guessed it as well.

It was probably when Gloria took Edmond to buy ice cream that Edmond had disappeared.

According to Edmond's personality, he couldn't run around randomly. Moreover, the residential area

here was very safe. There was a convenience store across the road, not to mention... Everly was

certain that Maverick had sent someone to follow her and Edmond.

When Everly thought of this, her heart thumped.

'Could it be that because I had just left the Farley's, those people who were secretly following us had

followed me to the top of the mountain?

'It could explain why Edmond would suddenly disappear, and Maverick doesn't know until now.

"Dad and Mom, don't be anxious. Let Hendrix know first," Everly knew that at this time, she can't find

her son in the fastest way. Moreover, this was a big matter. This little bit of calmness she had now was

all faked. Otherwise, her parents would be more worried and guilty.

Moreover, Parrish was ill repeatedly, so Everly had to calm down.

Only Everly herself knew that she was trembling all over for just standing. If it wasn't because she was

stuck to the sofa, her legs might have gone strengthless.

Ever since Edmond was born, even in the US, the City of Crime, such a situation had never happened.

Moreover, Edmond had always been very sensible and well-behaved. His sudden disappearance must

have been kidnapped.

At this critical moment, the one who could kidnap Edmond could be guessed.

A person who was not extremely vicious could do vicious things.

Hendrix had been contacted by Parrish, and Everly had contacted Maverick directly.

Everly knew very well that she had to tell Maverick about this.

As expected, Maverick indeed still did not know that his son had suddenly disappeared.

At first, Everly thought that she could control her emotions. At least when she talked to her parents, she

was still very calm and spoke clearly.

But at this moment, once Everly heard the low voice from the man on the other side of the line, Everly

felt that she was extremely fragile. The emotions that were suppressed in her chest rolled and surged.

It turned into a lump of bitterness, grievance, and helplessness. Then, the tears rushed up to her eyes.

Her world suddenly became blurry. She wanted to open her mouth to say something, but she choked

up the moment she opened her mouth.

Maverick probably heard her voice and instantly became nervous, "What's wrong?"

Everly's tears fell like pearls with broken strings. She wanted to say something, but her voice was

broken, "Edmond, Edmond..."

"Baby, if you have something to say, calm down and say it slowly," Everly wanted to say that Edmond

was missing, but she couldn't say it. Maverick didn't hear it clearly and thought that it was the previous

incident that made Everly feel very wronged. At this time, Maverick couldn't care about anything else.

He just apologized, "It's my fault. I didn't question you about anything. Everly, I was just a little happy at

that time. I will explain this to you later. Today, I'll let you calm down and pick you up tomorrow..."

"No, Edmond... is missing," Everly took a deep breath and choked, "It's not me. Edmond is missing...

Our son is missing..."
