After a while, the four of them returned to the park.
Selina had just sat down when she saw an ice cream stall not far away. She immediately asked for ice cream, and Luke, who hadn't sat down yet, naturally bought it for her.
In this aspect, he was much more self-aware than Joseph. His little brother would definitely only say, "Help me bring a XX flavor."
Andrea, the lively second sister, jumped up and followed him, saying that she wanted to pick her own flavor.
When they reached the ice cream stall, Andrea chattered and asked Luke which flavor he wanted for Selina and Talia.
Luke pressed her head helplessly and said, "Strawberry and chocolate for Selina, vanilla for Talia, and mango for you."
Andrea blinked. "I … Well, I do like mango."
She realized that Luke wasn't wrong at all. Mango was indeed the three sisters' favorite flavor.
Luke chuckled. Do you really think I've eaten at your place for nothing? How could I be wrong about dessert?
Hearing what flavor Luke wanted, the uncle at the stall immediately started working on the ice cream box.
He gave Andrea's mango flavor first to shut his talkative second sister up, and then Talia's.
While Selina was still working on her ice cream, a man and a woman walked over from the other side of the stall.
Through the half-covered ice cream box, the woman said coquettishly, "I want to eat ice cream."
A man's voice rang out. "Honey, didn't you have a stomachache last night? Let's wait until you see a doctor …"
"No, I want ice cream, blueberry flavor," the woman said coquettishly again.
On the other side, Luke shuddered violently. Shoot, that was too brutal.
As he grumbled in his heart, he silently took a step toward the ice cream box, took out his phone, and sent a message to Selina.
On the other side, the man couldn't resist the woman's "coquettish" behavior, and obediently got dragged over to buy ice cream.
The woman said, "I think it's better to have a simple wedding. I don't have many friends here, anyway."
The man hesitated. "Don't worry about that. Didn't your parents say they were bringing their whole family?"
The woman said, "… I meant friends other than family."
The man wasn't quite sure. "Ah, I see. Let me think about it."
At that moment, the woman finally turned to look at the stall owner, who had already passed the last Double Ball cone to Luke.
Then, she met Luke's eyes, who had moved out from behind the stall with a smile.
Woman: (̄ Д ̄)?
Luke was speechless.
Andrea, however, didn't notice their expressions. With a bright smile, she said, "Let's go, Luke, or their ice cream will melt."
Luke hummed a response and turned around as if nothing had happened.
After taking a few steps, he turned his head to look at Selina, who was eavesdropping behind the tarpaulin, and signaled her with his eyes that she could leave.
Selena reluctantly pulled Talia to her side and stopped eavesdropping.
At the stall, the man took the ice cream and wanted to pass it to the woman, but no one took it.
He turned his head and saw that the woman had already taken two steps back. Her face was a little dark as she looked at the two leaving figures and gritted her teeth.
Slightly worried, the man put his arm around her waist and asked, "What's wrong, Elsa?"
Suddenly, he grew nervous and said in a low voice, "Wait, it's not a dangerous suspect, is it? Why don't you inform the SWAT team first? "
Elsa glared at him, but when she saw the worried look on her fiancé's face, Sam, she finally burst into laughter.
Sam was stunned. "What's wrong?"
As far as he knew, his fiancée was a clean and straightforward person, or rather … a tough woman? It was rare for her to have such an inexplicable reaction.
Elsa's expression returned to normal. She took the ice cream from his hand and said, "It's fine. They used to be my best colleagues."
Sam nodded and said, "Should I say hi to them?"
Those two shameless people were basically saying, "I'll just watch and I won't say anything." Complaining inwardly, Elsa rolled her eyes and said, "They're busy with their dates."
Sam got it. "Okay, then. We're going to invite your best colleagues to the wedding, right? "
Elsa wanted to tell them to get lost, but looking at her fiancé, she said, "… Yes."
Sam smiled. "That's good. I've been wanting to hear about your work in Los Angeles for a long time."
"…" Elsa was lost for words. If they heard about how I dealt with those murderers and robbers, wouldn't that ruin my image as a gentleman? Hm, I'll have to greet Luke and Selina later, those two little bastards.
On the other side, while her sisters were busy eating ice cream, Selina leaned close to Luke and mumbled, "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 who told me. "
Lost for words, Selina tried to explain, "She's busy with work. I asked her out twice, but she said she was busy."
Then, she felt that something wasn't right. "Wait, you were the one who told us that Dustin and Jennifer were secretly dating a few times. How could you not know what happened to Elsa? "
Luke said, "I knew that she was dating this Sam, and that he's a nice guy, but I didn't know that they were getting married."
He wasn't a peeping tom, and wouldn't pay attention to other people's private lives every day.
Besides, Elsa was almost forty years old. It wasn't strange for her to have a boyfriend.
He chuckled. "Just wait. Maybe she'll call soon." Selina was curious.
Selina was curious. "Why?"
To keep her mouth shut! Luke had listened in on Elsa with Elementary Sound Wave. It was obvious that she hadn't told Sam everything about her work experience.
That wasn't hard to understand.
She was now a clerk in the office at NYPD every day, and it wasn't a problem for her to get married.
In LAPD, she had been a frontline worker before she met Luke, and had almost been shot a lot.
It was normal for a strong-willed woman like Elsa to be unwilling to tell Sam about her dangerous past.
In any case, she was indeed going to be a good wife and mother … Hm, not necessarily. Cross it off.
No matter how much Luke mocked his former boss in his heart, as a former hardcore colleague and now a close friend, he was still going to give her some suitable gifts.
She was almost forty and had a lot of minor health problems. He would find a time for Selina to invite her best friends to a party.
After they got drunk, he would use the Light of Life to treat Elsa.
As long as it was a wedding gift on the surface, it would be fine. In any case, it was just a bit of money.
While he was thinking, Elsa and Sam's embrace gradually disappeared into the crowd.
Under the bright sunlight, only Selina's persistent murmur could be heard. "Don't tell me she's pregnant? Otherwise, why didn't she tell me that she was getting married? Do you think it's a boy or a girl … "
