Chapter 61

*Damon*

I cut my engine off and I saw her already standing outside the building. I was already floating on cloud nine. Adelaide and I were better than ever and business was fantastic. I had just closed in on a 60 million dollar deal with Alesso, an Italian businessman, and now I was set to strike a new deal with a guy from Dubai who wanted to open one of his chains here in LA.

Maybe the saying that you need to break apart in order to come together was true. Because that was exactly what Adelaide and I were.

I walked toward her with a skip in my step. “Good morning.”

She stepped toward me and kissed both my cheeks. “Good morning. You look happy.”

“What is there not to be happy about? The sky is blue, the sun is bright, and my wife is smiling and happy.”

“Your wife?” She cleared her throat a little. “You guys fixed things?”

I nodded. “And we’re better than ever. How are you doing?”

She shrugged, “I’m okay. I’m just working a case for this movie star, but it’s a quick fix.”

“Good to hear. So, where’s your friend?”

“Oh he couldn’t make it but he did give me the keys so we can view it.” She dangled a pair of keys in the air. “Shall we?”

“Lead the way.”
