So, rather than fight her power, Woostie led Sheila over to the largest of the living room couches as soon as heâd arrived, and basically âspilled the beans.â He explained about Teddyâs deceit in deliberately forcing Ron into a financial corner, and how the contract had been written with the express purpose of squeezing him out.
Ronald MacWoost went on to explain that Mandy and Babette would continue on as Academy employees in different roles. âBut you, my dear E-woman,â he burst out, âI refused to let them have as their number one instructor any longer! Teddy was angry about that, but I told him to go to hell. Imagine him, thinking Iâd let you work there after I was gone?â
Sheila did imagine, with her feminine sensors on full throttle, and she could see the truth. Still, the E-woman was content to âlet that go,â so thrilled was she at the thought of her release now from the torture of restraining herself with the Academyâs male students. Sheil wanted to thank the Armdale sneak, almost â¦
âWould you like me to stop his breath?â she purred.
Ronnieâs eyes bulged. âKill him, you mean? Oh, no, babe, that wouldnât do.â Yet, Woostie could not help himself from pursuing this mention of revenge. âHow were you thinking of doing it?â he asked.
âStrangling his skinny neck,â she replied. âMy hands are very strong, as you know. Strong as a big human maleâs.â
âYes, I did think that worthwhile to include in your design. Now I can see why,â he joked.
Sheilaâs face showed puzzlement. âThen you do want me to â¦â
âNo, no,â said Ron. âI was just fantasizing a bit. Your hands are meant for other work,â he added with a naughty smile.
âWell, I could set him on fire. Just to teach him not to go âcoldâ on the golf course on purpose, especially not when heâs your partner!â
Having luxuriated in the image of Theordore Armdale IV submerging his half-scorched carcass in a water hazard for relief, Ronald MacWoost spoke again in a more reasonable vein. âThanks, Sheil, but weâd better let him be, in so far as bodily harm, though Iâd sure like to âmess with his headâ plenty.â
Noting that he had again confused his E-woman with an English idiom, Ron clarified. âNo, weâre not going to touch his head. I just meant Iâd like to dampen his thoughts.â
âHow does one do that?â she wondered.
âI donât know yet,â her master mused. âBut, Iâll let you know soon. Thatâs a promise â to both of us.â
Chapter 49
After a couple of weeks had passed, dust began to accumulate on Woostieâs clubs. Theyâd been exiled to his 4-vehicle garage, with orders to his E-woman not to touch them, either. Their owner didnât even come to see them, let alone put the set to any purpose. For that matter, Ronald MacWoost didnât have much use for anything or anyone else, it seemed.
Even Sheilaâs charms swayed him not. He just lay on that same mammoth couch staring for long hours at the golf world as promulgated by National Golf News.
