"After our fifth time tonight, Charles Bennett got dressed and threw a card at me. Coldly, he said, ""Don't come back. I'm getting engaged to Olivia."" After five years as Charles's kept woman, he ended things with me for two million dollars. His tone was icy and harsh, like he was afraid I'd try to hold onto him. But Alexander Ford, the one who really called the shots in Capital City, was after me for a long time, just waiting for me to give him the nod. Alexander was more generous, wealthier, and more powerful than Charles. As a kept woman, I could pick whoever I wanted to be my sponsor."
