Dinner pt1

A/N: I've come up with a name, the women is called Sophia, which means wisdom and strength in Greek :)

Sophia ruffle through the endless amount of dresses and suits she had with her. What the hell was she going to wear for a dinner date with a Mafia boss? 

"It's not a date, It's not a date. I T ' S  N O T  A  D A T E" she felt herself repeating over and over again, whilst pacing the room. 

They'd first met back in 2018, where she attended the Monaco Grand Prix weekend, being dragged along by her father. They'd managed to bump into each other, with Lando almost pushing  her into the harbour waters whilst rushing to the paddock. He managed to grab her waist before she fell, and that's when they first made eye contact. She fell for him, in love and in reality. They hadn't seen much of each other since until late 2019, when Sophia's father passed, and she was in possession of a mafia mob. Of course, the news spread quickly to partners of her father, one being Lando Norris. She knew she recognised the name from somewhere, and couldn't put her finger on where until they had a meeting in London, along with several other people from different parts of the globe. She recognised him instantly as he climbed out of his papaya McLaren, whom which he drives for in Formula one. It was admirable  how he could be in charge of a Mafia mob, as well as still race. He had to be some sort of puppet: he couldn't act suspicious in the racing world and around his team and friends, otherwise, his secret will be leaked to the world. Being the global figure he is, his career in the racing world and the business world will be shredded to pieces. This was her first time in Monaco since that day they met, and she remembers it like yesterday. This man was the man of her dreams; however, she knew he didn't feel the same way about her. She'd remind herself of what her father taught her. 

"Don't waste time on a deal that is not going to work."

A/N: Hi guys, just wanted to say that I'm doing a few POV's the next couple of chapters, and also posting more over the weekend, but again, like I said in the previous chapter, I'm not in the right headspace to be writing every day like I wanted to originally. Because I'm in lockdown and the F1 season not suppose to be scheduled until late March  , the weekends have become freed up slightly, and so I'm getting tired very easily.

Like I said before, hope you're all staying safe and well, and a massive thank you from me for reading this book so far, it means a lot :)
