chapter forty-one.
▂
Missy sat still as Swigs patched her wound up. She never thought she would see the people in Felix's gang again, considering how things were left before she decided to turn herself in.
"I never worked on anyone more than twice, you're just a special case." Swigs mumble grumpily as if Missy is the weakest one present, before carefully wrapping Missy's shoulder. "Then you come back with some pregnant chick."
"It's not like I had much of a choice, the police are after me as well. I rather have a big target on my back instead of being locked up in prison for a crime I didn't commit." Missy mumbles before looking over at Felix who was across the warehouse, speaking aggressively with Gray and his sister, which is nothing new.
"When you left... Our boss went crazy," Swigs tells her quietly." Just know half of these people aren't very fond of the relationship you have with Felix, and half of them never question Felix's judgment, so they're loyal."
"What are you trying to say?"
"You and your friend aren't one hundred percent safe here. I don't even know why Felix brought y'all back here, especially you." He finishes wrapping up her shoulder before packing everything up. "Don't let your guard down."
Felix walks away from them and stands on the back of one of the trucks that were parked inside the warehouse.
"Please, let's not do this Felix!" Mina calls out before the crowd gather around the truck. Missy watch everything go down while Swigs ask Viola basic questions. Since she's pregnant and he's the only doctor present.
"If you don't trust me, leave. Get the fuck out. I'm not about to keep going back and forth with you two!" He shouts while looking at his sister and Gray." Candy is here because she needs to be here and I want her here. If I thought she was here to set us up, I would've put a bullet in her head the moment I found her, not bring her to our warehouse!" Felix shouts as the whispers begins, causing Missy to flinch when she hear the sound of a clip, from a gun, falling on the concrete ground.
Her eyes watch some people move towards the exit of the warehouse, including the big and angry man, Gray. They were all leaving, all because she's present.
"Wow..." Felix mumbles before he starts pulling the trigger, shooting up at the ceiling causing everyone to stay still. The only person who flinched was Viola, only because she wasn't used to this kind of atmosphere.
"Weak... all of you. Incompetent weak bitches." Felix reloads the gun, adding another clip before aiming at the people who started to turn their back on him. Everyone stood there in shock.
"Felix stop!" Missy shouts, causing the male to hold his gun away before looking at the woman.
She walks towards him, pulling the shirt back on before stopping in front of him.
