A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married
Chapter 23 Have You Always Been This Popular?
Since Everly had just returned home, she had nothing much to deal with.
In the afternoon, she went to the Lamont Group with Maverick.
She hadn't got a Chinese driver's license, so it was Maverick who drove.
After arriving at The Lamont Group, she got much work handed over to her, and Maverick was also very busy. Therefore, they didn't bicker like they did at LAL anymore.
Everly was very persistent in her work.
Moreover, she had boasted that she would never resign, so she would delve into the real work. It could not be denied that actually she got a promotion. The Lamont Group provided good benefits.
As she thought about that, she felt more comforted.
In the whole afternoon, Jayden was busy with the handover. Thinking of her son, Everly wanted to say something, but on second thought, she felt it pointless.
Actually, she did not have a good impression of Maverick, nor did she have a good impression of his assistant. Work was just work. Otherwise, people would mistake her for a woman interested in Maverick.
It was the first day of Edmond in kindergarten. In the morning, she asked Hendrix to send Edmond to school because she needed to go to work.
Everly guessed that she wouldn't be able to pick Edmond up in the afternoon either. His classes must have been over after she got off work.
Therefore, she contacted Hendrix and asked him to send a chauffeur to pick Edmond up.
Hendrix agreed.
Everly checked the time. At about 4:30 pm, Maverick called her and told her to be prepared for a dinner with him in the evening.
It should be a bona fide secretarial duty this time.
Everly had no choice but to agree. She called Gloria and told her that she couldn't go home for dinner because she needed to go to a dinner party with her boss.
Everly hadn't told Hendrix that she had become Maverick's secretary.
