“Ay, get Richard for me, beautiful. Tell him he has a visitor.” I winked at her then made myself comfortable behind her bar. I poured a glass of her expensive ass Cognac and held it up, offering it to Trooper.
“And why would I do that? You need to get out of my house before I call the cops.”
“Call them, sweetheart. I don’t give a fuck about that, but trust me. You’ll be dead and your body will be cleaned up and missing before they get here.”
I held my gun in the air, but didn’t even aim it at her. Her eyes grew wide as fuck.
Trooper looked at me and shook his head, wearing a smirk. “Ay, go get that muthafucker. He dead ass serious, shorty.”
She turned on her heels and left the room. “Yo, what if she really calls the cops? I’m not in the mood to drop bodies today, Los. Damn.”
“She won’t. That’s Conrad Harvey’s wife and she fucking Richard. She ain’t about to miss money like that by letting her husband find out she’s cheating. Richard’s pussy ass bank account can’t fuck with the type of bread Conrad has, but he ain’t fucking her right, so she getting dicked down by Richard.”
“How the fuck you know all this?”
“You know how I do. I know people.” I smirked at Trooper.
“What the fuck are you doing here?” Richard yelled when he entered the room.
“Damn, that’s how you greet guests?” Trooper said, scowling at him.
“You’re not my guest. How did you even know I was here?”
“I ain’t who you need to worry about. You need to worry about if Conrad finds out you’re here. He ain’t gonna like that you’re sleeping with his woman.”
Match, set, point!He was fuming and wanted to kill my ass, but knew better.
“What do you want?” he said calmly, massaging his temple.
“You’re going to divorce Maddie and give her whatever she asks for. Not because she needs it either. I have way more than your ass can even imagine, so she’s straight, but because she deserves it for putting up with your punk ass for three years.”
“You can’t?—”
“Yes, the fuck I can, and if you don’t think so, try me, muthafucker. If you don’t make things right, I will first embarrass your ass by making sure Conrad knows you’re sucking the breasts he paid for. After your punk ass is publicly shamed, I’ll make you disappear permanently. Trust me, I don’t fucking play. Now you have one week to make things happen. So after you finish fucking with Jessica Rabbit in there, get on the line with your fancy ass lawyer and make sure you handle that. One week, Richard.”
I finished my drink then walked around the bar. Trooper and I started toward the door, but his dumb ass stopped in front of Richard and adjusted the collar on his shirt before he smirked at him and walked off.
After we made it to his truck, I looked at Trooper and we both burst out laughing. “Yo, did you really just do that?”
“Hell yeah, and he better do what the fuck I asked,” I said in all seriousness.
“I’m not fucking with your dumb ass, Los. You ’bout to get my Black ass locked up on some dumb shit,” Trooper said and shook his head as we made our way out of the driveway.
“I know you’re not talking. I learned from you,” I said and fired up another fat one.
Trooper nodded to agree. Hell, he’d taught me.
Find out who they were and hit ’em where it hurt. I was the type who just usually liked to kill muthafuckers. Trooper liked to make ’em suffer financially, especially now since he was out the game. I needed to tone my shit down too. So instead of just killing his ass, I handled it this way. That way Maddie got what she deserved.
Chapter 29
Trooper
Soon as I walked into my place, the first thing I noticed was that my alarm wasn’t on. That had my gun in my hand and me ready to fire. I made my way through my apartment, checking things out until I laid eyes on Sophie knocked out in my bed.
She was sexy as hell balled up in the center, but I got worried, wondering why she was there. She was still in her business gear, a burgundy pencil skirt and pale pink blouse. It was early in the day, which meant she still should have been at work.
I was concerned something had gone down. It was possible she would cross paths with William’s punk ass, but he was all about appearances, so I hoped he wouldn’t fuck with her.
