Lorraine was lost for words. After a while, she said, “I can’t even begin to tell you how wronged teel, Mam Myphone’s been reachable this whole time, and no one has called me. How’s it possible that he couldn’t get to me? Hedin’t need to call me anyway. We’ve already met.”
“Do you think you can just say whatever you want and lie to me through your teeth because you’re out of the house, Lorraine? Mr. More wasted so much time waiting for you when you didn’t show up! who the hell did you meet? Trene snapped.
Lorraine was taken aback by Irene’s outburst. She asked cautioush, “Are you being serious, Mom? Is my blind date still waiting for me at the cat Glendale Grand Hotel?”
“Of course!” I was so angry that she was close to having an aneurysm. Those orchards were the only things Lorraine cared about she had arranged for Loraine to go on so many blind dates, but none of them had led to anything
Today, Lorraine hall even gone so far as to stand har blind date up! The matchmaker was so pissed that she swore not to introduce into anyone else in the future. It took a lot of persuading and appeasing on time’s part to quell the matchmaker’s anger
“That can’t be Mom, I swear I met Logan at the hotel had a really good impression of him, so we went ahead and got mantled. We just got everything done half an hour finallymanied, Mom. You don’t need to keep nagging me anymore,” Lomaine said.
Irene esilent. Corraine continued, “One more thing-this matchmaker’s a liar, he said Logan’s an only child, right? He has a younger brother! She also said he’s only 28, but he’s actually already 11. Also, he has adopted the children of a dead friend They’r four this year and adorable fell in love with them as soon as I saw them
“The matchmaker might’ve led about everything under the sun, but at least she was truth about Logan being honest and kind. Look at how he adopted his friend’s kids and raised them like they’re his own children despite being married”
Trene still didn’t say anything Lomaine had married someone she jist met. Yes, the man she married was named Logan Moore, but there wasn’t anything about him that matched the information the matchmaker had provided. What in the world was going on?
Irene’s brain short-circuited. She just couldn’t wrap her mind around the matter. She finally found her tongue after a while and asked, “ve youredly gotten married, Baine? Send me a photo of the marriage certificate, And where are you tight now?
“I’m getting new glasses done at the optometrist told you may old pair broke after someone ran into me outside the hotel, right? need a new pair!!
“You didn’t have your glass on during your blind date
“No. How could wear them when they were broken?”
Irene snarled, “Send me a photo of your managersificate and your newlywed husband right this instand-

Lamine noticed the urgency in Bre’s one and linked it to the things the matchmaker had said. She finally reed something was amiss and hurriedly pulled out her manage certificate Shechecked it to see that the groom’s name was Login Moore. There was nothing wrong there.
She took a photo of it and sent it to rene along with a photo of Logan than a minute later, I This might be Logan Moore, but he’s not the Logan Moore you were supposed to
called to stream at her, “Why didn’t you ask him more questions, Lorraine?
“I told you to bring a photo of him along, didn’t yet you did teed my words and forget the photo Look what’s happened now-you the wrong guy! He’s not the one you were supposed to!!!
Locale was rendered speechless. Had shemally gotten the wrong guy? That man was ingan Moore, masu
explained that the Logan she was supposed town’ the Logan she had married. They just happened to share the same name.
Lorraine was dumbfounded. What could she do now? She and Logan were already married.
She calmed down after a few mistes and told theme, “It doesn’t matter who marry since the to marry someone, right, Mam? This Logan I’ve married might be a bit older than we expected, but he’s the one I met and spoke to He’s the one I like ”
Trene had nothing to say in rebuttal judging from the photo Loraine had set to her, the Login Lorraine had marked was much more handsome than the Logan she was supposed to go on a blind date with in fact, he looked like quite a good match for Lorraine.
They looked good standing together. If there was one thing that made her keep her reservations, it had to be that Logan’s pane was too sharp. He didn’t look the the easygoing

She asked, “Do you know what he does?!
“He’s a construction worker. Didn’t you see his outfit in the photo?”
treme scrutinized the photo. Logan was indeed wearing a construction worker’s outfit, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that he wasn’t an actual construction water. “Is he with you now?”
“No. We went or separate ways after leaving the courthouse, I needed to get new glasses and Setzer didn’t want him with me?
Irene fell silent. Then, she snapped, “You’re much too gutsy for your own good, you beat How could you marry someone without finding out more about hand Do you know anything about his family? What If he turns out to be part of a gang or somethi
“Don’t come crying to me when you find out something’s wrong with him. There’s also the fact that you’re now the stepmother to two young children!”
Lorraine said indifferently, “You’re always saying that our dogs will roll around laughing if lever manage to marry, right? you and bad keep pushing me to get married, and it’s pelling annoying. You guys make it sound like I’m 37, not 27.
“Since I met someone and had a good impression of fika, Ligured I’d just marry him and get it over with. That way, you guys won’tnag and take jabs at me anymore. You make it sound like I’m a disgrace to the family for being unmarried at 23.”
She paused, then contatord, “Look, just relax. Your brand-new son-in-law can’t be a gang member. He’s an honest and kind construction worker. Besides, what’s wrong with being a stepmother? It saves me the hassle of going through labor to become a mother! I need to go, Momoak yourself an kond rotier to calm down.”
Corraine hung up without waiting for a response. She didn’t want İpene to continue ranting and cagling at her. Irene had been constantly urging her to get married, but now that Lorraine had,

Lorraine had gone on those blind dates with marriage in mind. Since she and Logan had a good Impression of each other and were alright with the arrangement, what was so bad about curting to the chase and getting married? It saved so much trouble
Now that she had taken care of her marriage, she could focus on her orchards without worrying about anything else in the future.
Summer was coming, which meant the cherries and mangoes would stet ripening. She had to quickly buy fertilizer and head back to the orchards to pick the fruits with her workers. Then, she had to contact the fruit merchants to pick the fruits up.
