“Never.” A smirk crossed his lips. “What were you thinking?”

“About how you never asked to see your wedding band.”

“I figured you would show me if you wanted me to see it.”

“Do you want to see it?”

“Of course, I do. Then I can tell you if I’ll wear it.”

My jaw dropped as I stabbed his arm with the fork.

“Ouch.” He laughed.

I set the tray to the side, climbed out of bed, and grabbed the box from the drawer. Flipping open the lid, I handed it to him.

“Wow, Charlotte. This is beautiful.”

“Do you really like it?” I asked.

“I love it.”

“I had it inscribed. See.”

“I’ll love you forever. Take this off and die. Jesus, Charlotte!” He laughed. “I didn’t think I could love you any more than I already do. You never have to worry because once this ring is on my finger, it’s never coming off.” He leaned over and brushed his lips against mine. “Don’t move. I’ll be right back.”

A few moments later, he walked back into the bedroom with two wrapped gifts.

“Open this one first.” He smiled as he handed me the first gift.

With a smile, I unwrapped the box, removed the lid, and stared at the book inside with the word,Memories,written across it. Picking up the book, I opened it and looked at the pictures that were inside it—pictures of the family and us.

“Conner, this is—”

“It’s a memory book of us by date and place.”

“This is absolutely beautiful. I can’t believe all the details you added. I didn’t know you knew how to scrapbook.” A smirk crossed my lips as my brow arched.

“I may have had a little help from the girls.”

The arch in my brow raised a little higher.

“Okay, fine. I provided all the pictures, but it was my idea.”

“I love it. Thank you.” I leaned in and kissed him.

“I have one more for you.”

I opened it and flipped open the lid, which revealed a beautiful silver watch.

“Oh, Conner. This is gorgeous.”

“I know you don’t remember, but it’s the watch you wanted. I was going to buy it for you for Christmas, but they were sold out, and didn’t know when they were getting more in. I saw it when I went to Cartier to thank Joseph for letting you watch the security video. I hope you still like it.”

“I love it.” I smiled as I removed it from the box and placed it on my wrist. “I love you. Thank you for the beautiful gifts.”

“You’re welcome, babe.” He brushed his lips against mine. “We need to get ready to head to the boat. So, I have one more gift for you, but it’s in the shower.” The corners of his mouth curved upward.
