We entered the parlour and I ordered for both of us.

“Shall we take some for the kids? He asked, “I want to buy ice creams for there but when paym since you know their diet better than me” He said as we relished the favors

“You can buy them anything you want, just don’t overdo it Lena had her dentist’s apartment last made and she is advised to avoid sweet treats”

A genuine smile spread on his lips.

We exchanged small talks, he mostly asked about the local places and answered them in my best knowledge.

“I was in the market and decided to buy some ice-creams for Amanda, actually a particular flavour only this shop sells. Am I meeting Mrs. Wilferd?” Her attention shifted on me

“Yes, meet my wife, Tessa.” Logan introduced me with a warm smile

“Hello.” I forced a smile as I didn’t want her to see that I wasn’t okay with her proximity with my husba

“Hello, Mrs. Wilferd, it’s nice to finally meet you in person. I was actually curious to meet you the day came very soon. Mr. Wilferd is deeply in love with you.” She said.

I stole a glance at my husband and then turned to her.

went to the billing counter to fetch the ice-cream and also pay the bill.

“Allow me.” He said and pulled out his card.

“Your card won’t work here, Mister genius.” I rolled my eyes and placed the cash on the counter

“It’s due on me. I will treat you once we’ll be home.” He said and picked the paper bag

“Mr. Wilferd, are you coming to attend the dinner my grandmother is throwing as it’s our last night here?”

I closed my eyes and groaned inwardly because she wasn’t ready to leave Logan’s shadow yet.

“I fear I won’t be able to attend the dinner as I am invited at my wife’s house to have dinner with my family. I will personally apologize to your grandmother.” Logan politely turned down the offer

“Oh, it’s fine. Family is more important. Don’t worry, I will pass the message. She was really hoping to have you at our last dinner here.” She tried forcing a smile but I could see the disappointment hidden behind a neutral expression.

“Mrs. Wilferd, you can also join us. Everyone will be happy to meet you as Mr. Wilferd’s wife since they already like you for your dresses.” She asked me to join them.

“Thank you, but it’s not necessary. Logan will attend the dinner.”

“Mrs. Wilferd, please, don’t refuse. Everyone wonders who is the lucky wife of Logan Wilferd.” She kept insisting

“Okay, Ms. Steller, we’ll be there. At what time dinner will start?” Logan spoke before me.

“Great! It will start at seven. I will text Amanda.”

“Excuse me but we need to go now. We’ll see you at the dinner.” Logan said and escorted me out of the parlour.

“Hey, why did you tell her that I am also joining you?” I narrowed my eyes at him with crossed hands.

“You started it by giving your consent in my behalf. I really wanted to spend the evening with you and the kids.” He replied in the same smug tone.

I rolled my eyes because he was right.

“I was trying to save you from being a rude guest. Don’t forget that you were invited to attend the birthday party of your sister-in-law and her grandmother. Please, don’t be a unsocial rat.*

“An unsocial rat? You don’t have a better metaphor.” He shook his head.

“Would you drive us home now or this ice-cream will go in waste.” I showed him the paper bags.

“Oh, sorry, let’s go.” He said and we walked back to where he parked his car.
