Breach of Contract
"Your death won't surprise anyone," she sneered.
The sardonic smile twisted her beautiful face into a hate-filled mask.
"Your heart has been ready to fail for years. The drugs
I put in your drink is just going to speed things up a bit. I don't know how I
lasted this long! Feeling your dry, withered hands touch my body was always
disgusting! Tonight, while we're still married, it's all going to end. Your
doctor… my latest lover… assured me no one would ever suspect anything. Putting
the drugs in your nightcap was his idea."
The old man lay clutching his chest as he gasped for breath.
Spasms gripped him as spittle started to run from his mouth. She loved watching
him suffer in agony! She figured he'd be dead in about 20 minutes. In the
meantime, she would get ready to be picked up by her lover to celebrate his
death.
He was a ridiculously rich, 75 year old man. She was an
incredibly gorgeous, 24 year old stripper. "A match made in hell!"
his lawyer scolded him. "She makes a bimbo look like a Harvard grad. All
she wants is your money!"
"Who cares!" he retorted. "I'm giving her a
million bucks just to get her in bed with me! Just draw up the pre-nup
contract so I can have her." And that's exactly what he did. One year of
marriage and the money would be hers.
Once she discovered how much he money he had, a million
dollars seemed like a pittance. He was worth a hundred times that! She would
get it all if he died before the year was up. She'd been married a month when
she started making plans. She heard the doorbell ring. One last look and she
would be on her way to a life of luxury!
To her shock, her husband was sitting up in bed smiling at
her. Her look grew even more confused when she spotted the cell phone he held
in his hand. She heard the tinny voice on the other end of the open line
through the speaker.
"Mrs. Collins! This is, Detective Moore. We have, Dr
Sloan, here. He called us, right after he phoned your husband to warn him of
your plan. We heard everything. The police are at the door. I suggest you
answer it!"
