Chapter 137 What's Her Deal

• [Maverick’s POV]
• I stand at the edge of the hall, watching as William and the pipsqueak speak quietly. I didn’t mean to overhear anything, but shouldn’t they have picked a better place to speak? Anyone could overhear, and if what I just heard got into another's hands, well, I feared what would come.
• Deciding maybe it was best to end things before someone comes up, I clear my throat, drawing both William’s and the pipsqueaks gazes toward me. And when they realize I’m here, both of their expressions reflect shock and then panic.
