Chapter 3 ARGUMENT

ZAVIER'S POV

I approached the figure at my presence, it was Lily.

"What are you doing out here?" I asked curiously. "Aren't uou supposed to be in the kitchen?"

"Yes, I was in the kitchen." She said. "But I decided to come out here for some fresh air and well, to think." She said in reply.

"To think about what exactly?" I questioned.

"Well to think about my life and my future. She replied. "Being a mafia boss is a weighty responsibility, it's not so easy to be a leader especially of a mafia group." She added.

"I know how you feel, it seems terrifying at first." I said to Lily. "But when you understand the logics you'll see its much more easier than what you thought." I said calmly.

"I'm sorry." Lily apologised for what was unknown to me.

"For?" I asked.

"Boring you with how I feel about all this whole mafia thing." Lily responded.

"It was actually boring listening to you wine." I said cruelly.

"Why are you so rude?" Lily asked at the verge of tears. How wish she understand why i was being rude. "At least you could have pretended that you did care." She said with a hint of annoyance in her voice.

"It must be easy for you since you are a man but I'm not a man, I was so foolish to think you would understand."

"Both our mum's are mafia bosses, and they are good with what they do." I said to Lily.

"Please spare me the fake encouragement." She said. "And for your information they both have a man beside them, but I'm all alone in this journey." Lily said and left in a fury. She didn't know that very soon she would have a man beside her to support her.

As she walked away, because of her rage she slipped and twisted her ankle.

I hurried over to were she was.

"Are you okay?" I asked, but she just groaned.

I was about to pick up when she pushed me and said:

"Don't you dare touch me." She tried standing up by herself but instead made the pain at her ankle worse, making her groan.

I picked her up and walked towards the mansion. She was so stubborn she kept resisting and kept yelling "put me down."

LILY'S POV

As Zavier into the mansion with me in his arms we both heard gasps, I immediately knew it was both our mum's.

"What happened?" Elizabeth asked feeling much concerned.

"Well, strong head here sprang her ankle." Zavier said.

"Hope it's not so serious?" My mum asked.

"No, it's not." I replied my mum then faced Zavier.

"Who are you calling strongheaded?" I asked Zavier.

"This is all your fault Mr know it all." I said to Zavier.

"Without me you would have gotten to this mansion, I carried you here and you can't show a little bit of appreciation." Zavier snapped at me, but i wasn't backing down now, so i said: "I didn't ask for you to carry me, you did it on your own."

He dropped me down harshly.

"Ouch, be careful." I warned.

"What's all the fuss all about?" I heard my dad say.

"Nothing." I yelled in response.

"No it's not nothing, Ms princess here twisted her ankle." Zavier said to my father.

"What happened?" Derrick asked.

"It's nothing." I said with a smile. "Thank you all for caring." I added.

"Lily." My dad called me.

"Yes dad." I responded

"Go freshen and come back down stairs we have important things to discuss." My dad said.

As I was about to stand up, i couldn't help but wince in pain.

"Zavier dear, please can you help Lily upto her room." My mum requested, while he nodded as a yes to her request. I rolled my eyes and allowed myself to be swayed by pretty face.

"I'll send Brigget over to check on your ankle. Okay?" My mom said.

"Okay." I responded back.
