Chapter 160

Daphne just straight-up steered the convo to that topic. Mr. Lionel gave Daphne a deep look, went silent for a few seconds, then suddenly reached out and patted Daphne’s forehead lightly. “What’s your idea of love?”

Idea of love?

Daphne, a woman nearly thirty, had never really thought about her own view on love.

She cracked a grin, looking at Mr. Lionel. “Mr. Lionel, next time ask me about my money views! Love’s too complicated, I wouldn’t know how to answer.”

Lionel had already expected her reaction. His eyes were filled with amusement.

For some reason, when Daphne saw Lionel’s smile, she felt a bit uneasy.

*Daphne.” Lionel suddenly said.

Daphne looked at Lionel in surprise. “Yes?”

“Don’t call me Mr. Lionel.” Lionel said.

Daphne was taken aback. She thought carefully before saying, “If I don’t call you by your name, then what should I call you?”

“We’re friends. Mr. Lionel sounds too formal.”

Daphne said impatiently, “But you appear in front of the media that day…”

She hadn’t finished her sentence when she saw Mr. Lionel’s face suddenly become serious. Daphne almost forgot that Mr. Lionel had helped her that day.

She quickly laughed and apologized, “Lord Lion!”

Although this was Daphne’s unconsidered choice, Lionel seemed to be quite satisfied with this title.

He even turned his head to look at Daphne, asking with seeming depth, “What should I call you?”

Was he joking?

Daphne answered directly, “Just call me Daphne. I think it sounds quite friendly already. My mom said there’s a lot of thought put into my name.”

“Oh?” Lionel seemed very interested. “What’s so thoughtful about it?”

Daphne’s name didn’t seem to have anything special about it, Lionel wanted to hear how Daphne would explain it.

Daphne is a name of Greek origin, and it carries a beautiful meaning. This name is often linked to nature and plants, bringing to mind a sense of freshness, natural beauty, and grace. In Greek mythology, Daphne is also the name of a goddess who, while fleeing from the god Apollo, transformed into a laurel tree, Consequently, this name can also be associated with myths and legends.
