Whisper Chapter 13

^{“Does ‘Little Miss’ sound acceptable to you? I’ll just call you Heewoo. Our first meeting was a little rough, but let’s get along while we see each other.”}  

 

^{After exchanging greetings, it somehow felt like they had grown a little closer. Lee Heewoo felt a bit elated at forming relationships like this. But then, a thought suddenly crossed her mind, and the corners of her lips, which had been lifted, gradually lowered. If Cha Gyeol or Jang Pal-yong knew she could see ghosts, they wouldn’t be so kind to her. They wouldn’t smile at her like that, and the thought dampened her mood.}
