She wants money. Lots of it. She has confidence that with her green eyes and porcelain skin, she can lure a man to give it to her. She starts off small; dates with executives, doctors, lawn firm partners to fancy restaurants. Then a ludicrous number of flower deliveries to home and work. She takes it up a notch, starting with the mind games. How does one take a normally stable man, who has shown enough responsibility to have built a fortune, and turn him into a irrational man, one who exercises poor judgment for once in his life and grows sick with longing for her, terrified with thoughts of losing her? She plays them so well.
The relationships graduate to expensive gifts: diamond earrings, all-expense paid trips to Vegas and Vancouver, Caribbean cruises, lodges in the Rockies. Once they pay for her high-rise apartments not too far from their executive offices, she knows they are ready. And she severs them. She tears these powerful men apart, leaves them weeping in their Humvees or their chauffer-driven Lexus’s. Now it is merely a matter of presenting a sound business proposal: the sincerity and feasibility of her talking to competitors, wives, boards of directors. It’s a matter of supply and demand, Darwinian economics, event-horizons.
