Chapter 230

“Theresa again?” Ben sounded a bit jealous. “Who’s your husband here, me or her?”

Theresa seemed to call Susan every day, each time chatting for over half an hour.

Ben felt his dignity as a husband was being challenged!

Susan glanced at him. “Is that the point?”

“What else would it be?” Ben frowned.

“The point is, Theresa and Thomas are getting closer!” Susan was surprised by this development.

After all, Theresa and Thomas seemed like such an unlikely pair, yet they were now meeting daily.

“A single man and a single woman, is it that strange?” Ben remarked.

Susan shook her head at him, “I won’t discuss this with a straightforward man like you.”

Ben was confused.

Susan leaned in closer. “Theresa told me she’s going to an amusement park with Thomas tomorrow.”

“And then?” Ben raised his eyebrows.

Susan nudged him. “I want to go and see for myself.”

Ben was puzzled. “See what?”

“Aren’t you curious about what their date will be like?” Susan couldn’t help but say.

“Not really,” Ben shook his head.

Susan pinched him.

Ben quickly agreed. “Very curious, extremely curious.”

Susan was pleased. “Then, to satisfy your curiosity, let’s go to the amusement park too.”

Ben was speechless.

Susan narrowed her eyes. “Are you unhappy about something?”

“No,” Ben replied calmly, “I just realized that we’ve been married for so long, and I haven’t even taken you to an amusement park. I’ve been so negligent.”

The next day.

The sun was just right.

Susan, wearing a sun hat, sunglasses, and a mask, looked quite sneaky.

Ben, under her insistence, was dressed similarly.

“We’ll enter the amusement park first. Then we’ll hide in the gift shop near the entrance. When we see them coming, we’ll secretly follow them. Got it?” Susan whispered.

“Understood.” Ben nodded calmly

The two of them sneaked into the gift shop like thieves.

They didn’t have to wait long before Thomas and Theresa entered the park, holding hands.

“Wow, they’re making progress,” Susan exclaimed in surprise.

Ben was slightly taken aback too, but soon he noticed the people following Thomas and Theresa and chuckled.

“What’s so funny?” Susan asked curiously.

Ben pointed to a middle–aged woman following the couple, whispering, “That’s Thomas’s mother. And the woman with her, I believe, is Theresa’s mother.”

Susan was speechless.

Susan fell silent for a moment before bursting into laughter.

So, the mothers of Thomas and Theresa, not trusting their children, had also followed them to the date?

No wonder, despite holding hands, both Thomas and Theresa looked awkward.

I

“Let’s follow them. I have a feeling there’s going to be some interesting drama,” Susan said, pulling Ben along.

They followed at a safe distance behind the two mothers.

Mrs. Smith, Thomas’s mother, was speaking with satisfaction, “I say, these two kids are just meant for each other. Look how well–matched they are.”

Mrs. Austin, Theresa’s mother, was equally delighted, “Isn’t it? Theresa is just introverted. Thomas being extroverted complements her perfectly, doesn’t it?”

“Mrs. Austin, you’ve hit the nail on the head. Thomas is so lively. I like quiet kids like Theresa who can keep him in
