Her eyes widened in disbelief, feeling a bit incredulous.
Was Mr. Charlie possessed by a ghost today?
She glanced at the old lady again and suddenly realized, he cared so much about the old lady that he must have been afraid of upsetting her.
But the nickname...
Turtle, which was what her childhood friends called her.
Her older sister, Iris Thompson, had no nickname.
Years ago when they were abroad, she casually made up the nickname "Little Turtle," but Little Turtle belonged only to that person... even if he left her, and betrayed her...
Eve Thompson lowered her head, concealing her expression, "I don't have a nickname."
The old lady hesitated for a moment, "What about calling her Iris? No, that's not intimate enough, it doesn't reflect your relationship. How do couples address each other? Darling? Baby? Dear?"
Eve Thompson also got sidetracked, "Or, how about Heart, Liver, Lung?"
Old lady: ...
Crowd: ...
Is that how you refer to yourself?
