Lorn made a note of the items she liked, as he would have birthdays, anniversaries, and Christmases to buy gifts for her as well.  However, the pearl items she chose, he nodded to add them to their bill.  The ruby choker though, he paused and looked at it.  "I think this one is quite nice.  What do you think, Karen?  How about you get it too?"  He glanced over at her with a twinkle in his eyes knowing that she would have figured out that he had seen her reaction to it.

The clerk was making each of the items wrapped up for the couple, and writing down the bill.  Adding down the bill, the clerk's eyes were a bit surprised, but there were other rich people that came in there.  Lorn had been there before to send birthday and Christmas gifts for his mother, late wife's mother, and to Heidi's birth grandmother.  So he was not new to the store.  Just not this much at once.
