Moreover, Nathan hadn't called Amelia “sweetie” for several days.
“Nathan, you haven't called me “sweetie’ in a while now,” Amelia spoke gently.
“You haven't sent any messages either. You're not acting like yourself...”
Nathan felt a tightness in his chest, involuntarily recalling the expression on
Audrey's face when she sat on the reef, joyfully looking at the ring on her finger
under the sunlight. The sunlight outlined her tousled hair and the graceful lines of
her neck. She looked relaxed and shined brightly.
Before Nathan could respond, Amelia reached out and shook his arm. “Nathan,
what are you thinking
about?”
Nathan snapped out of his thoughts.
He didn’t know how to tell Amelia that the term “sweetie” was actually what
Audrey used to call him
in private.
Nathan knew Amelia didn't feel secure with him.
“You used to complain that calling you “sweetie“ was treating you like a child,”
Nathan smiled and reached out to ruffle Amelia's hair.

“Don't you know that women are always saying one thing but meaning another?”
Amelia swatted away Nathan's hand. “Only you can call me that. I feel that I'm
special to you! Besides, you've been calling me that for so long. There must be a
reason you suddenly stopped!”
Amelia was smiling, but her hand had tightened.
She was afraid that Nathan would tell her that it was because he remembered
Audrey. Perhaps the term sweetie was his private nickname for Audrey, and now
he didn’t want to use it on her.
Amelia also feared that Nathan would remember some things but wouldn't tell
her, planning to gradually distance himself from her.
“Sweetie, sweetie, sweetie!” Nathan grabbed Amelia's hand, as gently as ever.
“Since you like it so much, I'll call you sweetie again in the future. Don’t call me
childish again, sweetie!”
Seeing that Nathan looked unaffected, Amelia comforted herself. Even if Nathan
remembered Audrey, his normal behavior in front of her meant that he still loved
her the most!
Amelia visibly brightened and tentatively asked, “Did you meet Audrey when you
took Joseph's cousin to Cloudmill University? How is she doing?”
“Didn't I tell you not to mention her in front of me?” Nathan lowered his eyes
guiltily.
“Alright, alright, I won't bring it up again!” Amelia got up to pour soup for Nathan.
“I'll accompany you to drink a bowl of soup and then I have to go. The crew is
hosting a dinner for the investors tonight, and I need to attend.”
“Remember to send me the hotel location, and I'll come pick you up,” Nathan
said.
