Since Happy is still being held hostage by the Chinese, I decided to go over to Gemma's house to help her and Nero take care of Wendy to take my mind off what was happening with Happy which Gemma didn't mind the help. Walking inside Gemma's house, I notice both she and Nero sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in their hands.

"Aw -- look who's playing house, where's your dear child Wendy?" I smirked causing Gemma and Nero to shoot her an unamused look. "Okay I get it, not funny. So, what's the plan for today than Momma Gem?"

"For the most part it's just looking after Wendy and Unser is dropping of the boys in a while since Jax doesn't want them at daycare anymore." Gemma smiled

"Okay well - I'm gonna go check up to see if Wendy needs anything." I replied before leaving the two in the kitchen

Heading into Jax's old room, Wendy is sat on the bed with her knees up to her chest while she rests her back against the headboard as she is  staring into thin air which she stopped doing when she spotted me coming into the room.

"Hey - I've come to check up on you and see if you need anything?" I briefly smiled, placing myself at the end of the bed.

"I don't need anything, thank you." Wendy smiled back

"Well give me a shout if you do." I commented before leaving the room.

After checking up on Wendy, I could hear the boys walking inside the house which Abel was quick to spot me entering the kitchen which caused him to run over to me before attacking my knees.

"Oh I've missed you too, Nugget" I chuckled causing him to looking up and give me a cheeky grin

--------------------------

Time had quickly passed since the boys had arrived but that came to an end when Tara turned up at the door as quickly as they had arrived. It was obvious that Tara wasn't planning on sticking around the house any longer than she needed to by the way she chose to act the minute she walked through the door.

"What's Wendy doing here?" Tara asked the second Gemma walked off to answer the phone

"Well, we couldn't get her into rehab until next week so we are looking out for her until than" I answered

"Might be a good idea for a doctor to take a look at her." Nero simply continued before bring a cup of coffee to his lips

"Yeah, you should get one. I don't have a license to practice." Tara slightly huffed

"That doesn't matter. That was Jax. He's been trying to get ahold of you. Bobby's been shot, it's bad" Gemma claimed, walking back into the kitchen which drew the attention onto her

"What happened?" Nero questioned

"I'll tell you on the way over. Come on, we gotta go." Gemma answered, collecting her things

"So, what, we just pretend nothing happened, and I'm mob doctor again?" Tara laughed

"Look you are going to save Bobby's life regardless of whether the recent events gets pushed to one side or not so move it." I ordered, leaving Tara to become slightly pissed

"Jesus Christ, alright -- I need to go by my house and pick up my bag." Tara huffed

Because of the situation with Bobby coming to our knowledge, Unser offered to take care of Wendy and the boys while we deal with helping Bobby and his injury but it was clear by the look on Gemma's face that she didn't want me to come along due to me being heavily pregnant when she noticed me getting ready to leaving with them.

"Oh no darling you are staying here. Happy will have all of our heads if you come along" Gemma declared, slightly stopping in front of me.

"I'm coming along, Tara might need an extra set of hands and there's no need to worry about Happy, I'll deal with him when he finds out" I stated before following everyone out of the house

--------------------------

The drive to where we needed to go was fairly short and when turning up at the destination, we arrived at some massive warehouse which when we had parked and started to get out of the car, Jax as well as a couple of others noticed me getting out of the vehicle which caused Jax to become slightly pissed.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Jax spoke with a firm tone

"If you may know I came in case Tara needed some help." I commented, raised my hands surrender

"You stay close to Nero and don't think about leaving his side." Jax ordered before showing Tara where Bobby was.

Standing near where Tara was stitching up Bobby's wounded shoulder, about half an hour had flew by when Clay makes an entrance which was a surprise for a couple of us but before we could comment, the ex-president went off with Jax before the Irish has turned up. Once that discussion had ended with Clay, Jax along with Tig and Chibs went into a room with the Irish before killing them. By the looks on the trio's faces when they called Clay into the room, I gathered what was going to happen to Clay next and what the outcome was going to be for that. Before Jax followed Clay into the room he had just crawled out of, I called Jax's name causing him to walking over to me without hesitation.

"I know what you are going to do with Clay and I gotta be the one to do it." I stated, placing myself in front of Jax

"I can't let you do that especially with you being pregnant and you know how Happy would react if he finds out." Jax shook his head in disapproval

"I know Happy would be pissed about it but I have to do this for Opie and Pops, they would want me to do it out of everyone." I explained leaving Jax in a tough spot.

"Fine but you have gotta wear these, okay?" Jax ordered before he passed with a pass of gloves.

Entering the room while I put the gloves on my hands, Tig places a hand on my shoulder before handing me the gun. Clay didn't bother to try to stop what was currently happening which you could tell by the look on his face that he knew that his time was up.

"This is for Opie and my father." I stated before raising the gun at his face and shooting him in the face.

Once Clay had collapsed on the floor, you could hear Gemma cry out which no doubt caused Nero to hold her while she sobbed. Letting my arms falls to my sides, I felt Chibs take the gun from my hands before Tig guided me out of the room so Chibs and Jax could deal with the bodies. I had managed to get all the way to Gemma's car with Tig by my side before he gaves a longish hug before helping me into the car.

While Nero drove Gemma's car out of the warehouse with Tara and I in the back while Gemma was sat next to him in the front, silence flowed through the car while we all process what had just happened moments before.

"That shit with Clay?" Nero questioned, breaking the silence

"I didn't know" Gemma declared

"They voted that?" Nero questioned again

"Yeah"

"A few months ago, Clay killed Piney Winston. One of the original members which is the reason why Letty was an alcoholic. Then he ordered the cartel to kill me because I knew what he did to John Teller. Jax stopped them, but that's, uh, how my hand got crushed. Ruined my career." Tara explained leaving shocked to appear on Nero's face

"Jesus" Nero muttered

"Clay Morrow should've been dead a long time ago." Tara stated causing Gemma to cry.

"I'm sorry"

"It's okay. How you hold up Letty? You've been a bit quiet back there." Nero spoke again, briefly looking back at me when he noticed my lack of words.

"I'm fine considering but thanks for asking." I briefly smiled before staring out at the window.

The ride soon came to an end when Nero dropped me off home after doing the same with Tara at Saint Thomas.
