Chapter 468 

“Oh,” Elise murmured calmly.

“Oh?! What does that even mean?” Nathan put on a sullen face; he couldn’t help thinking that Elise was up to some mischief. As such, he took the initiative, suggesting, “How about this? Since we’re the best of friends, let’s address each other by our nicknames rather than our given name. From now on, you’ll call me Nate, and I’ll call you Ellie. What do you think?”
