Chapter 220 You Don’t Match at All

At 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, Imogen picked up Grace at the Galaxy Villa and took her around the mall.

As she watched to dinner time, they were about to head to the restaurant when Imogen received a message from Erik: [Imogen, I am at a coffee shop on the way. What would you like to drink?]

Then, he took a picture of the menu and sent it over.

Imogen clicked on the menu and leaned down. “Grace, what would you like to drink?”

Grace looked over, rolled her eyes smartly, and ordered the most expensive one. She bit her finger and said, “Imogen, I’d like three: one for me, one for Troy, and one for Grandma Mary.” Imogen was speechless.

Grace tricked Erik into paying for her.

“Okay. Three drinks will do.” Imogen sent Erik the names of the drinks and transferred money to him.

Erik: [Imogen, why are you transferring me money again? I told you it’s on me today!]

When she got home that night, Imogen transferred the money for her lunch to Erik. How could she ask Erik to pay for the meal she had with Grace?

On that occasion, Erik was reluctant to take her money. It was because Imogen said it was on her on Saturday that he received it.

Imogen typed out a few words: [Take it. You’re buying us lunch, but this won’t be needed.]

Imogen thought about it and deleted the last few words. Imogen: [Take it. You just got an

internship and haven’t been paid yet. You need money.]

Erik accepted the transfer a few seconds later. He sent an emoji of a cat’s head and said: [I’ll take it then, thanks.]

Imogen: [That’s okay. By the way, do you mind if I take Grace?]

Erik took a minute to express his mind but then replied: [No.]

Imogen could almost imagine Erik’s defiant expression, and she smiled.

“Hmph,” Grace pouted and looked away.

“What’s wrong? Baby Grace?” Imogen said as she put her phone in her pocket.

“Imogen, you’re ignoring me when all you do is chat.”

“I’m not ignoring you.”

“Imogen, you’re ignoring me now. Maybe you won’t bring me out to play next time, and you might not even come to see me in the future,” Grace had a touch of resentment on her face.

Imogen couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “You’re a witty kid!”
