Trent chuckled.“You aren’t.Her husband left her well off, and the money just keeps growing.”
“I’ll take it.I’m already preapproved, so this should go fast.”
Trent grinned.“She’ll be happy about that.She asked if she could leave the things she didn’t want to take.She thinks you might be able to use some of them.The rest you’re just supposed to donate.”
Damon nodded.“Of course.One less thing for her to deal with.”He looked down at Emma and wrapped an arm around her waist.“Do you have any questions or concerns?”
“No.Not at all.”
He pressed a kiss to her forehead.“Good.”He looked at Trent.“We’re going to look at trucks.I’ll have to wait to go to the bank on Monday.”
“She’s going to be so thrilled,” Trent said.
“I know I am,” Damon said, smiling down at her.
“Go to Ames Auto.David will give you a good, honest price,” Trent said.
“We’ll do that.”Damon looked down at her.“Are you ready?”
Emma nodded.
“Hey, sis, if I grill chicken, will you make your hash browns that I like?”
“I don’t know if I’ll be there...”
“Oh.I think she’ll be there.What else do you have going on?”Damon asked.
“Oh, well...”
Damon turned to Trent.“We’ll pick up some things from the store on our way back, so text us what we need.”
Trent grinned.“Sure.I’ve got some work to do, so I’ll be home the rest of the day.I hope you find a truck you like.”
Damon shrugged.“I’m not too picky.”
“And good luck with that one,” Trent said, pointing at his sister.
Emma gasped.“What kind of brother are you?”
Trent laughed.“The very best kind.”
Before she could say anything, Trent was waving goodbye in his car.
Damon squeezed her as she scowled at her brother.“Come on.You can beat him up later.”
“You better believe it,” she growled.
He chuckled and led her to her car.“Let’s go find me a truck.”
The day turned out to be one of the best in his life.He bought a dream house, and most likely a truck, but the best thing was that he finally had Emma in his arms, where she belonged.
