Quentin probably didn't expect that Erine, who had always looked delicate, would ask such a question directly. He couldn't give any response for a moment.
"Mr. Forbes, can I take your silence as a tacit agreement?" She asked.
"Erine, it's true that Mr. Eddison is married," he replied.
"And that's why he decided to let me go."
He went silent again. He didn't know what to say.
She didn't hang up the phone. Even if Quentin didn't say anything, she was still hoping for an answer. It was as if she could get a little closer to Eddison through this.
She knew very well that she was being delusional.
However, it really did hurt her,
After a long time, Quentin asked, "Are you off work? I'll buy you dinner."
"Where?"
"I'll WhatsApp you the address," he replied.
"Sure," she agreed.
Erine thought that Quentin might be asking her out to tell her something about Eddison. Even if he was there to give her some advice, she was fine too. She just wanted to hear more about Eddison.
