Romeo's gaze widens as at my information to him, it sends the switch in his hands striking down.
"Let's go." Is all Romeo says, as with that we walk out, taking an elevator and out the building.
As we get into the car, Romeo wastes no time starting the engine and speeding off. While he drives, I can't help but think about the luck which seemed to have found me at such a moment.
A moment where my thoughts were inconclusive, and at that point I couldn't make an irrational decision. If jen hadn't call me by then with such news, I dread to know what my response would have been.
Because would I really have done the worst to those men, to prove my alliance with Romeo.
Or would I have walked away and loose every connection we could have had with Romeo and his sister.
Then again, there is meeting Felicity stone, whom I do not know what her response or behavior would be towards everything that has happened, but what ever it is, I have to remain my cover inside this case.
We don't stay much on the road as we get back to Aurora's house in minutes, with the speed Romeo was taking.
"Man she ain't running away." I tell Romeo as he parks his car while we get to the house.
"You think so, but I know my sister better." He tells me before getting out of the car and I do the same. We walk into the house going into the room Felicity is kept in. As as we reach the room, Romeo and I stop in our tracks staring at a face we never expected.
Or at least I didn't.
"Skylar, you didn't inform me we were having a guest." I speak to Jen where as my gaze stays on Nathaniel Stone, who is sitting by his wife.
"My apologies Aurora, but he arrived not too long ago." Jen tells me while I only nod.
"What are you doing here?" Romeo questions taking me by surprise at his tone with Nathaniel.
"Seeing my wife of course." Nathaniel responds to Romeo. "Hello Aurora, it is my deep gratitude for taking care of Felicity, I have heard all about it." Nathaniel gets up from his seat, meeting me.
"Its fin..."
"And still yet you couldn't come all these while." Romeo cuts me off while I turn to him with a perplexed expression of not knowing what's going on.
"Romeo!" Felicity calls at him.
"Hello sister, I hope you've recovered well?" Romeo ask sparing felicity a glance before going back to glare at Nathaniel.
"Spare me all these nonsense you're causing, I just woke for Gods sake, don't tell me I'll have to deal with you two again." Felicity speaks. "I haven't even gotten the chance to thank the person who saved my life." She adds.
"That's not possible, because this d**k head right here, didn't even dare show his face here not once while you were unconscious, and now that you're awake, he comes here?" Romeo nods his head in disbelieve.
"Watch your mouth Romeo!" Nathaniel cuts in.
"Or what, d**k head?" Romeo says again while I only stare at the two men with my lips pressed together.
Okay...this is getting intense.
"That is enough you two!" Felicity gets down from her bed meeting the two stubborn men.
And here I thought this was a happy family.
I give jen a glance, almost smiling at the situation, while she tries to remain professional, but fails as I notice a little smile on her lips, as this won't be harder than we thought, knowing with this drift within them, it would be easier to get between them.
"Romeo if you say another word I promise to put a bullet in your shoulder, not caring your my brother, I would, so don't you dare me." Felicity with authority lacing her voice speaks, as with that I realize why she is feared of them all.
"And Nathaniel, it's such a shame that others have to be here to notice your nonchalant behavior of how you couldn't come and see your own wife, yet that does not matter, because as from now on I'm back and I do not want any sort of behavior as such anymore." She talks to Nathaniel as though he is still a child.
But well, men can be.
"Now both of you sit." She orders them as Nathaniel and Romeo glare at each other, nevertheless, take a seat.
Such authority.
"Now where were we? Oh yes Aurora," Felicity comes to me. "I am deeply indebted to you for saving my life, thank you." She holds my hand in hers. "Tell me, ask anything and I shall give to you." Felicity speaks as a smile reaches my lips.
Seems the shoot out may actually be to my advantage.
"Oh no Felicity, you do not owe me, I did everything I did for our good Will. If anything was to happen to you, where would people like us who look up to you be?" I say to her watching her smile brightly.
"That is indeed true. Lest I forget...I do recall you telling me about your distribution and the businesses you have to discuss with me.
"Indeed I did, and it is a partnership I require from you, but I would want you to rest well before I discuss that." I speak to felicity, while the room stays quiet.
"Nonsense! Tell me about it now, I think I have had enough rest. My money is not going to make itself." She jokes while I laugh falsely hysterical.
"Alright if you say so." I nod my head at her. "I have ideas which could take our business global, but with that I would need your cooperation." I inform her.
"And I would be all ears about that." She smiles at me. "Romeo, I am sure you have seen validity of Miss Fisher's business?" Felicity asks Romeo. "No offence dear, its just business." She turns to me.
"None taken, go ahead." I nod my head at her.
"I have. Aurora is legit and clearly managing five distribution sites of Nicotine and Fentinol. She has also sent out a batch of five million worth of nicotine as a sign of good will." Romeo tells felicity as she stares impressed and so do I, not realizing Romeo could utter that, since we're still building our trust issues, but it seems I have nothing to worry about anymore.
"Is that true?" Felicity turns to me.
"Yes it is." I smile lightly.
"Then if that is, we would like to discuss further about your ideas. Meet me at my place next weekend, I'm sure we'll discuss better then." Felicity tells me as a smile lays perfectly on my lips.
I'm almost in, lieutenant.
"That I would do. Thank you for your time Felicity." I greet her once again.
"And thank you for letting me recuperate here." She says with a smile while I nod menacingly.
Well, let the games begin.
------------
"Seems you met Felicity's good side, she seems to like you." Romeo tells me as we walk outside the house into the gardens.
"And it seems it wasn't just her good side I met today." I turn to Romeo with a stern look on my face.
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Romeo stops in his tracks.
"Oh you tell me Romeo, considering the s**t you pulled earlier at Tesco group." My tone hot, as I don't complete my statement before I pull out my gun and pointing directly at Romeo's head.
"What the f**k is this Aurora?" Romeo's gaze a combination of fear and anger as he speaks.
"A s**t you started Romeo kind, when you decide to test my honesty." I tell Romeo as after that, I decide push him further by taking the gun slightly away from his head, to a side of a wall and pull the trigger, sending a bullet straight to a wall, where as Romeo eyes widens in full horror.
Romeo wants a bad b***h, then he is gonna get a hell lot of one.
