Lawrence's arranged marriage/ fiance Fay Cartelli was part of the mafia but she wasn’t her father was involved in it and that's the reason Lawrence was going to marry fay; for the money and the connections. By Ned’s other purpose to sell his nephew away was because of his deep debt to the mafia leaders. Ned gambled and sent himself into debt not being able to pay for losing. Ned was going to sell Lawrence to the mafia (the Cartelli’s) instead of paying the debt and Lawrence would then work as a lawyer for Fay’s mafia father. “Your uncle promised you to the Cartelli family. He told them you’d work as a lawyer for my father to help make sure his tracks are covered up on the legal end.” When Cassandra went to save Lawrence because she figured out how to save lawrence she came in the wrong moment.
