"𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭?" I asked at which Lionel smirked
"𝐀𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠"

Y/N Gold was someone in this world ruled by money...
"Lionel" I spoke softly, looking at him through the rear-view mirror, me still sitting in the back seat
"Yes?" he questioned softly, his gaze moving from the road to the mirror for a split second
"Can we go by the hospital? I want to visit my mother"
Lionel gave me a small, tight lip smile before nodding
"Of course we can" he said "do you want me to wait in the car or do you want me to come with you?"
"Actually" I began, my hands going to my shirt as I began fidgeting with the edge of it "I was wondering if I could tell my mother the truth about our agreement"
"You want to tell her about the contract?" Lionel asked and I hummed
"Of course I won't tell her about you being in the mafia" I added "but I don't want to lie to her for longer...it would be better if she hears the truth from me, than from someone or somewhere else"
"You're right about that" Lionel said as he stopped at a red light, tapping his fingers against the steering wheel before letting out a small sigh
"Okay...you can tell her" He said
"I feel like there's a 'but' coming..."
"But..." he began, now driving again as the light turned green "I want you to know that, no matter her reaction or where things go after this, I will still be paying for her treatment"
I couldn't help but smile at his words, finally calming down as I stopped fidgeting with my shirt
"Thank you, Lionel" I said softly and he smiled
"You're most welcome, darling" he replied before fully focusing on the road and I just started scrolling through Instagram before seeing that Grace had sent me a message
Bae I need to tell you smth :/
I furrowed my eyebrows at her text before typing out a reply
What is it? Is everything alright? I asked and she quickly saw the message
I don't want to upset you but I didn't like the way Lionel showed up today right when the shooting happened
Are you saying that he's playing a part in this?
Yeah... she replied sorry babes but it's suspicious how he showed up at the right moment
You're fucking delusional, Grace. I replied before huffing and closing my phone, now just looking out the window
