Chapter 59

*Adelaide

Production on the movie had started about a week ago and Damon and I were better than ever. After my trip to Vegas, we stayed there for an extra week to just recuperate. I had a different view and outlook now. I knew that Damon and I would be fine at the end of the day.

But that turbulence that I had felt between us had hit hard. It had scared me enough to make me realize that even we weren’t invincible to the effects of the outside world. So I was willing to be more disciplined.

After the dinner, we had spoken extensively about what we both needed from each other and to call out a safe word when we felt like we were losing touch with each other. Mine was cactus and his was pineapple.

I was more than confident that this time we would take better to LA.

I had just wrapped up with Comic-Con when I got a text from my sister saying that she was flying out to LA to visit for a little bit.

Corinna and I were slowly building our relationship back up and I would even say that we were friends now. But Corinna and Damon still had a little frostiness between them. Well, if I was being honest it was more so Damon than it was Corinna. He still didn’t trust her and I understood his reservations. But she was on her own and she was my family.

Me: What time does your plane get in?

Corinna: I’m actually already here

What in the world? There was something off and I knew it. Corinna was not a spontaneous traveler. She was very particular and she liked to plan and curate things a certain way. So the fact she had just shown up here unannounced meant that something was wrong.

I got into the new Range Rover that Damon had gotten for me after our little fight. I had told him it wasn’t necessary but he had said since he made me cry it was the least he could do. When he did things like that I was reminded of exactly who I married.

He was one of the richest men in America and he was my husband. The same man I cuddled with and who laid on my chest like a little baby was one of Forbes’ most frequent faces.

It boggled my mind.
