Chapter 421

The mood was decidedly awkward.

Edith Ford was still in a daze, “Added? When did I add you? No, I didn’t!”

I shot back, “No? Really?”

“I… um…”

Clearing her throat and casting a glance towards Gregory, Edith’s lips twitched, “Did I… add you?”

Gregory nodded, firm as a rock, “You did.”

“I did?”

“Yes, you did.”

“Right, I did.”

Suddenly enlightened, Edith flashed a smile at me, “I’m so sorry, my memory is just terrible. Yes, I did add you…”

Turning to Gregory, she asked, “When did I do it again?”

“At dinner, remember?” Gregory raised an eyebrow.

“Oh, right.”

Edith smacked her forehead, “Yes, yes, I even asked Greg for your contact then. It was about his knee pain!”

Then, uncertain again, she asked Gregory, “That was it, right?”

Gregory just gave her a look.

Edith, with a meaningful smile, turned to me, “That was my backup account, I barely use it. How about we add each other again?”

“Sure.”
