He was busy watching the kids happily playing in the sand when he felt a presence behind him. Then, she sat close to him, leaning her shoulders against his.
"Thank you!" Damon turned to his side to find his wife sitting close beside him with a beautiful smile radiating on her face. "Thank you for doing this for the kids."
It was like the sun suddenly shone in her eyes, bringing more sunshine to an already bright and sunny day. Truthfully, for the first time, he felt lucky, more fortunate than closing the biggest fucking deal in his life.
In truth, he had never believed in luck or fate. He had never trusted luck to get what he wanted. He never left his choices to chance.
As far as he was concerned, he dictated his destiny. And whatever he had, he got it from hard work, perseverance, and determination, not because of damn luck.
"You don't have to thank me. It is nothing compared to what you do for the kids." He felt she deserved more.
