She has thought they would kill her. Dropped her to die in the middle of a desert. Abandoned her like in the movies.
On second thought, it would be odd.
They could kill her anywhere. No need to force her into a small private jet. Yet, another luxurious ride she couldn't enjoy.
When she finally sees the city lights, she knows their destination.
They are going to Las Vegas.
Straight to most expensive hotel in town. Whoever their Boss is, he is extremely loaded.
Palms Casino Resorts is one of most expensive hotels in Las Vegas. Around $100,000/ night.
Fran knew because a friend bragged about it one day. When he won a lottery ticket and the prize was to stay here for one night.
About the wonderful hotel room. Outdoor Jacuzzi. Theater that could hold 52 persons. Even the couch is different here. It's made from snake skin, Italy.
She's taken to the highest level. Must cost a fortune to stay here.
Three knocks on the door. Sounds like a pattern.
A bodyguard opens it.

Fran agrees the room looks wonderful. Too bad she isn't in position of enjoying it. A man behind her shoves her into the room.
She falls down, straight in front of him.
"Fran? Why is she here?" asks him.
She lifts her head.

David has squatted and offers his hand to help her rise. She hits his hand away. Fran gets up on her own.
Gio taps on David's shoulder. He says warmly, "To give you company, old friend. What else?"
David realizes it too late. He shouldn't have acknowledge to know her at all.
He says coldly, "She's just someone I knew. An escort girl. Nothing more."
Gio laughs heartily.
He says, "Heard that, boys? Have fun with her. I'm going to pay for her fees."
