The proper thing to do would be to invite Mr. Echelon-Arnost to dinner with both she and Daniel. Her husband wasn't one to appreciate her being alone with another man, even if nothing untoward was to happen. But, if Daniel were to join them his mood would certainly sour the easygoing conversations she'd had thus far with Mr. Echelon-Arnost. If anything, his negativity might ruin whatever friendship was blooming here.

It would have to be a weekday afternoon, she decided. A day where she was positive Daniel would be out of the house and they would be left with just the house elves and servants...but, what would he think of that? Freya wasn't hoping for anything more than a friendship with the progressive man. Would he think her flirting if they were left alone? Would she have to hire a chaperone for the afternoon? Merlin, she was confused.

Before she could allow too much time to pass and make the air between them awkward, Freya nodded in agreement. "Of course. That would be lovely. You could bring Lysander, too." It wouldn't be unproper if a child was sitting with them, would it?
