The sudden term of address seemed to make Ethan Laurent pause for a moment.
Summer Ford's voice has always been soft and soothing, but when she gives in, that voice is so tender it nearly makes Ethan lose his composure.
He watched her with interest, seemingly pleased by the term of address, his eyebrows lifted slightly, and the taut line of his thin lips relaxed a bit.
"What did you just call me?" He asked casually, his gaze fleetingly shifting to her face.
Summer Ford discreetly observed his expression, noticing the improvement in his previously unfavorable look, knowing her words had an effect.
Actually, she had no clue how to genuinely please him; that term of address simply slipped out in the heat of the moment.
After saying it, she actually felt quite uneasy.
However, this wasn't the first time she'd called him that, and it's not the time to be pretentious now.
