A Girl for Jack

Chapter 15

Joker rolled his eyes, walked to the parlor bar to pour himself a drink. Mary sat in one of the fluffy chairs and examined her new gift. Her smile fades as she heard him speak. " Well.. Looks like you got an admirer. " Joker threw his drink back and slammed the glass on the bar. Mary jumped. He strutted up to the back of Mary's chair and started to rub her shoulders." Ya know pumpkin.. The last guy that I sent to his place had his head put on ice and sent back to me. He supposedly insulted the little prick."

Mary could feel his cold gaze burning into the back of her head. She hung her head. "I'll send it back." 

Jokers anger eased as he rubbed her shoulders. He rolled his eyes, "You can keep the damn thing. I gotta go kitten." He leaned down and gave her a peck on the cheek.

Mary mumbled, "Have a good day." Mary looked up and saw Frost wave goodbye as he followed his boss to the door. Mary silently waved back. 

As Frost drove, Joker silently thought to himself. "She's crazy.. Talking to Cobbleshit, but on the other hand; he liked her. That in its self is not an easy feat." He reached into his coat pocket and started to read Mary's contract. It read as the following.
