The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5776

Charlie's words made Vera's eyebrows twitch involuntarily. She seemed to understand something but deliberately didn't ask further. Instead, she put this matter aside and smiled at Charlie, saying, “Young Master, since you can't make up your mind, let me take charge of this matter.”

After saying that, she tilted her head for a moment, then said, “If it were ancient times, I would definitely call you ‘sweetheart’. But now, no one uses that term anymore, and since we are pretending to be a couple rather than husband and wife, how about I call you ‘darling’, and you call me 'darling' as well?”

After saying this, Vera breathed rapidly. She was blushing as she watched Charlie, afraid he would refuse or be displeased.

Charlie didn't think much of it. They were pretending to be a couple, after all, and they were even wearing couple outfits. It was normal for the terms of endearment to be a bit cheesy. Besides, if they were a couple, it didn't seem appropriate to call each other by their names when they were out.

So, he just nodded and said, “'Darling', huh? Alright, let's go with that.”

He then instructed her, “But remember, never say 'sweetheart' in front of others. We're in a new era now, and those old-fashioned terms aren't used anymore. If you say that in public, people might think I have some strange quirks…”

Vera stuck out her tongue and said defiantly, “Young Master, I've lived through the transition from the old era to the new era. I understand what you're saying. Besides, I haven't used those words for over a hundred years. It's just for you, and I'll adjust once we leave this villa.”

“Alright, then,” Charlie nodded. He then glanced at the time and said, “It's getting late. Let's go.”

Vera nodded, then said to Charlie, “Okay, Young Master. Can I call you ‘darling’ after we leave this door?”

Charlie nodded and casually said, “As long as you're not afraid of the four elderly people downstairs making fun of you, feel free to call me whatever you want.”
