Madisyn nodded and picked a few dishes.

Then Susan turned to Dane, striving to keep her tone even, and said, “What about you? Feel free to order whatever you like.”

“Sure thing,” he responded, quickly scanning the menu before choosing the simplest dish and a pot of hot strawberry milk.

Madisyn noticed this and couldn’t help but tease, “Dane, when did you start drinking hot strawberry milk? Isn’t that more of a girl’s drink?”

She hadn’t expected Dane to deviate so much from his usual self.

But as soon as Madisyn made the comment, it hit her.

Since she and Susan typically had their periods around the same time, it must be that time for Susan.

Madisyn quickly connected the dots and gave Dane a knowing glance.

Dane replied calmly, “It’s cold outside.

Drinking something warm will do you good.

I ordered it for you.”

“Oh, okay,” Madisyn said, though she wasn’t convinced at all.

She looked back and forth between Dane and Susan with increasing curiosity.

Dane kept casting furtive glances at Susan, who remained focused on ordering more dishes, seemingly oblivious to his attention.

Throughout dinner, Susan was mostly chatting with Madisyn.

At one point, she turned to Madisyn and Andrew and said, “Madisyn, it’s clear how well you and Mr.

Klein go together.

You guys make such a great match.”

“Oh, thank you,” Madisyn responded with a shy smile.

“I’m speaking the truth,” Susan said with a smile, a touch of admiration in her voice.

“I genuinely envy what you two have.”

It’s not often you come across a couple who are not only a perfect match but also genuinely in love.

Dane turned to Susan, observing her quietly.

Susan felt her cheeks flush under his steady gaze, but she chose to ignore it.

After dinner, Susan wasn’t quite ready to part ways.

“How about we go shopping?” she suggested.

“That sounds great,” Madisyn agreed enthusiastically.

Nearby, there was a market filled with various stores offering clothes and jewelry.

Susan and Madisyn strolled through the market, browsing different clothes and jewelry, while Andrew and Dane trailed closely behind them.

Dane paused at a display featuring a raindrop-shaped necklace, studying it thoughtfully.

As Susan went to settle her bill, Dane stepped up to the cashier too, placing two raindrop-shaped necklaces on the counter.

“I’ll pay them all,” he said.

“Certainly, sir.

The total comes to eight hundred and forty dollars,” the cashier replied.

Dane completed the payment and handed the necklaces to Madisyn.
