Chapter 10 of "Switchblade Romance" is ready for reading!
“How many women have you dated?”
“Seriously? Two or three, but it never worked out. I was too busy trying to grow my business. Now that everything’s stable, I’m ready for that next step.”
“So you got yourself snipped so that the women you dated wouldn’t trap you with a child?”
“Precisely. A couple of them tried to, which let me know they were fooling around with other men while they were with me. They weren’t happy to learn that I had a vasectomy and knew without a doubt that their pregnancy tests were either fake or the result of them fucking other men.”
“Really, Malcolm?”
“Really. My status as a businessman and hotel/casino owner affords me a particular lifestyle; one that certain types of women want. I make a whole lot of money and some women see that and start plotting a way to get their hands on my bank accounts, be it fair or foul.”
She looked up at him. “Wait. Hold up. Are you saying that you own the Vermilion? You don’t just manage it; you own it?”
“Yes, and the Solar Fountain, and some other businesses under the name Sullivan Parker Incorporated.”
