... was scared of him. She paused again, watching him shake his head sadly. "I got caught in a rain storm walking on the highway, and a trucker stopped and picked me up. His name is Glen Adams; he owns his own truck, and I finally told him what happened after he saw the marks on my neck and stitches in my head. I was covered in big bruises. We stopped to eat at a truck stop, and when we came out, truckers were passing a message from Damon . He was offering ten thousand dollars for information to find me. Lots of truckers saw me in the restaurant, and Glen said we would never get away, He called the number that was being given out and told Damon that he had picked me up and where we were." "Damon and the ranch foreman came to get me, but Glen told me that I wasn't going with them. He got out of the truck and told me to lock the doors. Glen is six foot eight, Jake, 260 pounds of tough. Damon had the money in his hand and Glen called him a son of a bitch and hit him right on the nose - money flew everywhere. Damon went down, blood all over, and when he got back up Glen hit him again on the ear and he went down again.Glen stomped on his nuts with his cowboy boots, and then picked him up and slammed his head into the tailgate of the ranch pickup, stomped his nuts again, then picked him up and threw him into the back of the pickup.

I bought my house and I'll be indebted to Glen and Jan forever. She sighed deeply. "I would have married Glen, but he's a trucker and loves the road. He stops in sometimes to visit - Cassie is named Cassie Glynn, for him. Damon took the north half of the ranch and I have the south half. I have never been back up there. Damon emails me from time to time asking about Cassie. His ranch foreman, Dave Gibbons, keeps the ranch going for me. He lets me know what he is doing. Last year we put six hundred thousand profit in the bank. That's why Mr. Fallow is so nice to me. So now you know all about me, and I plan on learning a lot more about you, mister, so don't plan on getting away." Jake sits in silence for a few minutes. "Damn, Jeanie, I'm almost afraid to meet this Glen dude. What is he going to say about you having a Mexican living with you?" Jeanie giggles, "He'll probably want to know what my intentions are, and I'll tell him that if I can talk you into it, I'll marry you." Jake frowns. "Shit, Jeanie I don't have a pot to piss in - hell you could have any guy you want! You're a beautiful woman, and you got money and you have a ...
