Grady checked his account, seeing he was almost out of the money he’d made from the last sale.

How had he gone through so much cash? He needed to increase his business.

He needed to do more than one woman a month.

There was a business for it. The last one had been a surprise.

He hadn’t expected someone to show up and start asking questions.

She’d almost ruined everything for him, but he’d turned it around and made a profit from it.

The door opened, and Bill stepped in, a smirk on his face. “That dumb bitch is going to net us more money.”

Grady stared at the man, wondering what the hell he could be talking about. “What do you mean?”

Bill winked and flashed a huge smile. “I called my worthless nephew, and he’s going to send me a thousand dollars.”

Grady didn’t know whether to pull out his gun or go get the paddle he used on his kids. “Are you fucking kidding me?”

“Right? Smart of me to do that. Stupid cuck doesn’t even know how dumb he is.”

Grady’s anger rose so fast that his chair toppled over when he stood. He moved to Bill, slapping him across the face before he could think of anything else to do. He should have punched the guy, but his anger was too high to control and slapping was something he used on his bitches.

Bill rubbed his cheek, a hurt expression pinching his eyebrows together. “Hey, what’s that for?”

“You idiot. You told him you were involved?”

Bill huffed. “Hell no. I made something up and told him to send me the money. He doesn’t know we were involved.”

Grady threw his hands up in the air. “Fucking nightmare, that’s what you are. If he does any looking into us, I’m going to kill you myself.”

Bill had the audacity to look shocked. “Hey, I'm doing us a favor. We'll get more money, and no one will know what we did.”

Grady shook his head, not sure how he'd gotten roped in with an idiot like Bill. Over the last two years Bill had helped with all the girls. Bill hadn’t blinked an eye when Grady had come to him with the business, and he hadn’t ever gossiped about their little business venture.

But Bill was proving to be a ball and chain he couldn't afford.

The man had done some stupid stuff over the years, but this one took the cake.

Maybe it was time to eliminate Bill. First, he had to find out more about the asshole's nephew. If the guy looked like he would be trouble, Grady would have to shut that shit down fast. No one would miss Bill, not really. Sadly, there wasn’t a market for older, overweight men who were worthless.

He would just have to pop him in the woods, and hope nature took care of the body.
