Body Parts - Nick Hammer





It was another court day for the Doc Hansen’s ex-wives club.  They were hungry.  If the bastard can buy a brand new custom made Camaro, he’s got money for us.  That’s what they thought.  That’s not what they got. 
          They failed to prove that Dr. Luke Hansen had any other real disposable income.  With federal tax returns in hand, Luke’s attorney proved that his income was damned near stagnant for the past three years.  The court did not care if Luke had a new car or not.  His income had not changed.  The members of the ex-wives club came up empty. 
          “Come on girls,” Joclyn moaned.  “We’ll go to Boudicca’s and figure something out.” 
          The staff at Boudicca’s never saw the ex-wives looking so glum.  Their first round of drink was on the house. 
          Jackie said, “I can’t believe that judge was so cold to us.” 
          “Sugar … he wasn’t cold, he was right.  We need to get the dirty details of Luke’s where-abouts … how he is makin’ his extra money,” Joclyn stated. 
          “People are talkin’ at Kroger … about Luke … they said he has a boat … at Kemah … he calls it … My 3X Wives,” Jaime meekly said. 
          Almost in two part harmony, Joclyn and Jackie yelped, “Luke’s got a boat?”
