to Julia Upton. Bodyguard-—that’s
what Moe Langdon, her producer
called me, You see, there'tl been a

and Julia was
right at the top
of the heap that
year — a tempt-
ing morsel for
abductors, and Moe {figured she
needed looking after. Also, he fig-
ured the publicity , wouldn't do her
any harm.
“After all,” he grinned,

snapped. “My pal!” I stopped. He
was still grinning, the grin that
meant it was hopeless for me to
argue. “How much will you pay?"
“Two hundred bucks a week—and |
what sweet, easy money.”
He was right, it was sweet, easy
money—providing a man didn't
have’ any pride. 'I earned every |
dime of that 200 bucks. I wasn't |
| used to being ordered around by a
| little chit of a redhead.
“Tomorrow morning,” she'd say,
“we're going horseback riding. Be
| at the house at 9.” Or: “Tonight
the Keanes are giving a party.”
I guess my attitude must have
shown how I felt. At any rate,
Julia began {aking a delight in
putting me on the spot—making
me: pose for pictures, making
me attend afternoon teas where
I'd be the only man present—
stuff like that.
There came a time three weeks
later when Julia wanted to go for a
drive in the country. We drove to-
| ward Santa Barbara, were half
way there when it flashed across
my mind that she was due at -the
| studio for a rehearsal at 3 o'clock,
and at this rate she wouldn't be
there.
I told her she'd better turn around |
| and head back. She said she: was |
tired of rehearsals and said how |
did I expect to make her if she |}
didn’t want to go?
“Like this,’”” 1 said, and switched
| off. the ignition and pulled up the
| brake. She ° was

So I lifted her up in my arms, and
it was such a swell opportunity :I ||
kissed her. rr
She swore, at me-yreal cuss words
| —and because I knew this would
| end my sweet, easy. money job 1 |
kissed her again; then plumped |
her down in the seat and got. be- |
hind the wheel . . ..
Instead I moved .from my one
room home into an apartment, and
the next day set out to find myself
a joh.
I had expected the papers would |
be full-of my discharge from Julia's |
{ employ, but they weren't, .Not a
word.
And this got me to thinking that
|
|
{
maybe. she wasn't quite as bad as |
|
I thought. As a matter of fact, I
| got to thinking other things too—
mostly about Julia.
Two weeks later Moe Langdon
called me up.
“Listen, you dub, Julia's been |
kidnapped and it's your fault. They
want $50,000. It’s got to be delivered |
to a rendezvous . . . .

“Tomorrow morning,” she'd
say, “we're going horseback
riding. Be at the house at 9
o'clock.”
There was a guy waiting at the |
top of the pass when I got there. {
He grinned at me when I gave
him the deugh. “Where's”
Julia?” I said. He jerked a
thumb over his shoulder. “Two
miles back, in a cabin. Follow |
the trail.”’
I ran all the way to the cabin.
| Julia was inside, bound and gagged. |
I didn’t know the extent of my re-
lief, and apparently Julia didn’t
know hers.
“I could have had you fired from
your old job," she said, ‘just the
way I made Moe Langdon hire you
want to. I wanted you to—to satiate
your old pride.”
“Wait a minute,” I said, “How
about this’ kidnapping business?’’
“It was your own fault,” she said.
“You~you were so stubborn. You
wouldn't call me up. I had to do
something.”
“Then it was a gag?” 1
She didn't’ say anything, just
stared at me. Well, 1 thought,
what's the use? I'm destined to look
after this kid the rest of my life,
and I might as well like it.
