I saw the image through the frosted glass in the door. It hesitated, moved back and then forward. There was a little more hesitation and then the door opened and she came in.
Seeing her almost took my breath away. She was gorgeous. I believe the phrase that suited her best was "Drop Dead Gorgeous." I stood up from behind my desk to greet her and said as I offered her my hand:
"Good morning. I'm Robert Dalton."
She took the offered hand, shook it and said "Sonia. Sonia Harding."
"Won't you please have a seat and tell me what I can do for you?"
She sat down and crossed her legs in that way that only women can seem to do be able to do. In the process displaying long shapely legs and feet encased in four inched heeled CFMs. There was no doubt in my mind, not even a smidgen, that the display was deliberate. The lady knew what she had and she used it to her advantage. She couldn't possibly know that I was a 'leg man' and that high heels were one of my biggest turn-ons.
I sat there admiring the display and waited for her to tell me why she was in my office. Of course I knew why she was here, but needed to get to the specifics. Knew why she was here? The door she walked through had a sign on it. The sign said Dalton Investigative Services so Sonia Harding obviously needed the services of a private investigator.
She looked at me as if she were sizing me up and then said "I'm here to offer you a two week, all expenses paid vacation to Maui."
I laughed and said "Sure. What's the catch?"
"You have to go with me."
Still chuckling I asked "Who put you up to this?"
"In a way I guess you could say it was your wife. When I found out she was who my husband was cheating on me with I decided that the best revenge would be to do the same thing with her husband, but unlike your wife and my husband I don't intend to hide it. The question here is will you go along with it?"
I made a show of checking my calendar and then said "My calendar is clear until April tenth (it was then March third ) so just when do you see this revenge taking place?"
"I'm ready to leave right now."
"Right now? You mean as of this minute? How are we going to do that? It takes time to arrange for hotel reservations, arrange for plane tickets. Need to pack for the trip and things like that."
"Plane and place to stay are already taken care of. As for packing? We will buy what we need when we get there."
This just had to be a prank that someone was playing on me, but I was just curious enough to go along with it and see where it was going so I said:
"Okay; I'm in. What now?"
"Now we go to Maui" she said as she stood up, looked at me and asked "Coming?"
I stood up and followed her out of the office, stopping just long enough to lock the place up, and then followed her out of the building where I got the first inkling that things might not be like I thought.
There, waiting at the curb was a limousine with a chauffeur leaning on the front fender. The chauffer straightened up as soon as he saw us walk out the building and moved to open the rear door. I followed her into the car and when the chauffer was in the car and behind the wheel she said:
"To the airport Frank."
The chauffer started the car and we were on our way.
I reached forward and slid the privacy panel closed then asked:
"When did you find out about your husband cheating on you?"
"Yesterday."
"You found out yesterday and were able to set this all up in less than twenty-four hours?"
