In an intriguing tale of unexpected turns, a distinguished and well-dressed gentleman in his late 40s or early 50s approached a brothel, seeking the company of the most expensive lady available. Upon being greeted by the madam, he requested to see Penny, who was known for charging a steep $1,000 per visit. Without any hesitation, the man handed over ten one-hundred dollar bills and proceeded to spend time with Penny upstairs.
Returning the following night, the man again insisted on seeing Penny despite her warning that repeat visits were uncommon due to the high cost and that no discounts were offered. Undeterred, he paid the same amount and went upstairs with her once more. On his third visit, the brothel staff and Penny herself were astonished by his persistence and willingness to pay the premium rate yet again.
After their session on the third night, Penny, curious about the man’s repeated patronage, inquired about his origins. The man revealed he was from South Carolina. Surprised, Penny mentioned she had family there. The man then disclosed that he was the attorney of Penny’s sister. He explained that her father had passed away and that he had been tasked with delivering Penny’s $3,000 inheritance. In a clever twist, he had chosen to give her the inheritance through the very means she earned her living.
The story culminates with a sardonic nod to the inevitable twists of fate involving death, taxes, and in this case, the wry maneuvers of a lawyer ensuring that Penny received her inheritance in full, albeit in an unconventional manner. The tale serves as a humorous reminder of life’s certain, yet unpredictable, encounters.
