Daphne’s father’s birthday party was scheduled for Saturday.

Lysander walked over and handed her a gift box.

There was no need for excessive formalities between them. Daphne accepted it directly. “Wow, a Tudor watch? You really splurged.”

Lysander smiled. “It’s only fitting. By the way, you look a bit off. Didn’t sleep well?”
