While he was in a daze, Olivia waved at his face.
Sam snapped back to reality, coughed lightly, and said, "Then I'll help you once, but only this time."
"No problem!" Olivia nodded hard and said, "Once is enough! Let's go!"
After that, Olivia wanted to pull on Sam's arm as she got up. Sam frowned slightly and said, "Miss Olivia, although I've agreed, you..."
He did not continue with his words, but his eyes fell on Olivia's hands. Olivia followed his gaze and understood what he meant with one glance.
However, she did not let go. Instead, she took his arm and said with an innocent expression, "Don't tell me you want to say that it is improper for men and women to touch each other, are you? But Mr. Sorrento, you are meeting my mom as my boyfriend later, so we must look more intimate. Let's practice now."
Sam was tongue-tied.
"I suddenly feel a little regretful. Can I back my words now?" He said with a serious face.
Hearing this, Olivia held his arm tightly and said, "It's too late!"
Looking at her nervous face, Sam didn't know why but he wanted to laugh. However, he managed to control himself and sighed, "Even if you want to practice, we can do it later."
"No, we don't have much time. You don't know my mom, so you don't know what kind of person she is. So... We have to get to know each other now."
Sam narrowed his eyes and asked, "Get to know each other?"
"That's right!"
Just like that, Olivia questioned Sam about all the members of his family as if she was checking their household registrations. After that, Olivia told Sam all the details of her family.
Sam felt like he was in the clouds, completely under Olivia's control.
After both of them had learned about each other's background, Olivia added, "By the way, we need nicknames for each other."
"Nicknames?"
Sam's eyes were about to pop out from their sockets. This girl's thoughts were crazy. Perhaps he really shouldn't have agreed to her request.
"Yes!"
Olivia held her cheeks with her hands, lost in her own thoughts. Seeing she was thinking, Sam let
her be and sipped his coffee leisurely.
"I got it! Why don't I call you Sammy?"
"Ahem..." Sam spat out the coffee that he had yet to swallow in time.
Olivia dodged with a disgusted look on her face. She tilted her head and said, "You don't like it? Then... Baby Sam?"
Sam coughed heavily and wiped the coffee on his lips with his palm. Then, he looked up at Olivia unhappily. Olivia immediately returned to an innocent expression and said, "You don't like both? Then... Why don't I call you Darling instead? Honey? Sweetheart? Little Cutie?"
As she talked to herself, Sam's face turned as black as coal.
"Don't you think it'll be more suspicious if we act like this?" Sam couldn't stand the clingy addresses, so he interrupted her.
Huh?
Was that so? Olivia had written a lot of stories, so she thought it was normal for couples to have nicknames for each other. But she had overlooked how reality worked.
