After walking around, the four of them returned to the park.
Selina had just sat down, when she saw an ice cream stand not far away. She immediately offered to buy ice cream, and Luke, who hadn’t sat down yet, naturally did it for her.
In this regard, he was much more self-aware than Joseph. His little brother would definitely just say, “Help me get XX flavor.”
The lively second sister, Andrea, jumped up and followed him, saying that she wanted to choose her own flavor.
Walking over to the ice cream stand, Andrea asked Luke what flavors he was getting for Selina and Talia.
Luke pressed down on her head helplessly. “Strawberry and chocolate balls for Selina, vanilla for Talia, and mango for you.”
Andrea blinked. “I… Hm, I do like mango.”
She realized that Luke wasn’t wrong at all. That was indeed their favorite.
Luke chuckled.?Do you think I ate so many times at your place for nothing? How can I not know what you like for dessert?
After Luke ordered, the middle-aged man at the stand immediately started scooping the ice cream.
First was Andrea’s mango ice cream, then Talia’s.
While Luke was getting Selina’s ice cream, a couple walked over from the other side.
Half-hidden by the stand, the woman said coyly, “I want ice cream.”
A man’s voice rang out. “Darling, didn’t your stomach hurt last night? Why don’t you wait until you see a doctor…”
“No, I want ice cream. Blueberry.” The woman pouted again.
On the other side, Luke suddenly shivered. F*ck, he got goosebumps.
Even as he mocked inwardly, he silently moved to the other end of the ice cream stand and sent Selina a message.
On the other side, the man couldn’t resist the woman’s playful act and was obediently dragged over to buy ice cream.
The woman said, “I think we should have a simpler wedding. In any case, I don’t have many friends here.”
The man hesitated. “We don’t have to save on that. Didn’t your parents say that they would bring your whole family over?”
The woman: “… I’m talking about friends, not family.”
The man was unsure. “Ah, I see. Let me think about it.”
At that moment, the woman finally looked at the stand owner, who had already given Luke the last of the ice cream cones.
Then, she met Luke’s eyes as he moved out from behind the stand with a smile.
The woman: ( ?? ?)?
Luke shrugged.
Andrea, however, didn’t notice their expressions. She smiled brightly. “Let’s go, Luke, or the ice cream will melt.”
Luke hummed and turned around as if nothing had happened.
After taking a few steps, he turned around and looked at Selina, who was eavesdropping on the side. He gestured for her to leave.
Selina reluctantly pulled Talia along and stopped eavesdropping.
At the stand, the man took the ice cream and wanted to give it to the woman, but she didn’t take it.
He turned around and saw that the woman had already taken two steps back. Her face was a little dark as she gritted her teeth and looked at the two departing figures.
The man was a little worried. He grabbed her waist and asked, “What’s wrong, Elsa?”
Suddenly, he was a little nervous and said in a low voice, “Wait, it’s not some dangerous suspect, is it? Why don’t you let the SWAT team know first?”
Elsa glared at him, but burst out laughing when she saw the worry on her fiancé’s face.
Sam was stunned. “What’s wrong?”
From what he remembered, his fiancée was very forthright. Or should he say… she was an iron lady? It was rare for her to react so strangely.
Elsa’s face returned to normal. She took the ice cream from him and said, “No need. Those were my best colleagues.”
Sam said, “Should I say hi?”
Their shameless attitude was clearly saying, “I’m just watching, I’m not saying anything.” Elsa rolled her eyes at him. “They’re busy on a date.”
Sam got it. “Okay. Hm, your best colleagues. Should we invite them to the wedding?”
Elsa wanted to tell them to get lost, but when she looked at her fiancé’s honest face, she said, “…Yes.”
Sam smiled. “That’s good. I’ve been wanting to hear about your time in Los Angeles.”
Elsa was lost for words.?If you hear about how I taught those murderers and robbers a lesson, won’t my gentle and refined image be ruined? Hm, I’ll have to call Luke and Selina later.
On the other side, Selina whispered to Luke, “Elsa is getting married? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Luke looked at her in surprise. “Aren’t you her best friend? You should be the one to tell me.”
Lost for words, Selina argued, “I’m busy. I asked her out twice, but she said that she was too busy.”
Then, she felt that something wasn’t right. “No, you were the one who told us about Dustin and Jennifer’s secret dates. How could you not know about Elsa?”
Luke said, “I know that she’s dating this Sam, and that he’s a nice guy, but I didn’t know they’re getting married.”
He wasn’t a voyeur, and couldn’t pay attention to other people’s private lives every day.
Besides, Elsa was almost 40. It wasn’t strange for her to have a boyfriend.
He chuckled. “Let’s just wait. Maybe she’ll call later.”
Selina was curious. “Why?”
He had been using Elementary Sound Wave, and Elsa clearly hadn’t told Sam everything about her last workplace.
It wasn’t hard to understand why.
She was now working a desk job in NYPD, and getting married wasn’t a problem.
In LAPD, she had been on the front line before she met Luke, and there had been many times when she had almost been shot.
It was understandable that a tough woman like Elsa wouldn’t tell Sam about her dangerous past.
In any case, she was indeed prepared to be a good wife and mother in the future… Hm, or maybe not, scratch that.
No matter how Luke mocked his former boss in his heart, as a former colleague and now a personal friend, he should prepare some suitable gifts for her.
Elsa was almost 40 years old, and there were a lot of little issues with her health. He would find a time for Selina to invite her over for a get-together.
Once they got drunk together as usual, he would use Light of Life on Elsa.
On the surface, he would get her a gift as befitting their friendship. In any case, it was just a matter of spending a little money.
Thinking that, he watched Elsa and Sam gradually disappear into the crowd.
Under the bright sun, Selina mumbled, “Is she pregnant? Otherwise, why didn’t she tell me that she was getting married? Do you think it’s a boy or a girl…”
