Chapter 250

• William reached out and took her hand. "I could never get tired of you," he said. "You're the most amazing person I've ever met, and I know that now. I was a fool not to see it before.
• "But I want to prove it to you," William went on. "I want to show you that I'm not the same person I was before. I want to be the man you need, the man you deserve. I want to make you happy, for the rest of our lives."
