"Are you sure he was the one? Did you see the killer?" Alpha Denzel asked, suspicious of Alpha Conrad, so this revelation was confusing.

"No. I arrived too late. She died on the spot, but who else? Don Gambo said I was going to be next if I don’t return to him.

Lisa’s best friend, whom she was with on that day, said the man wore a white mask.

Don Gambol has a white mask. I’ve seen it before.

It looks like that of the joker," Aurora said with certainty.

The revelation was a relief for Don Denzel, but he felt compelled to help Aurora because she was Lisa’s big sister. Indeed, the person who stabbed Lisa was seen wearing a white mask.

He rose to his feet, picked up a leather jacket, and draped it on. "Stay here."

Aurora shook her head and stood up, ready to go. She already knew she wouldn’t get the job. No one would employ a school dropout like her. True, she had made changes to the CV to suit the job, but it was because she knew she was capable.

She had done more challenging jobs, except that they were illegal businesses, and for the fact that she lied on her original CV, Don Denzel would not be so kind as to give her the job. "I should go."

Her stubborn attitude was irritating Don Denzel. He frowned and asked her, "Do you want to die?" He recalled it was the same way Lisa was itching that day to go to school after they met.

Who knows? She might have remained alive if she had missed school that day because Don Denzel would have pestered and known that her life was in danger. He could have even had a secret bodyguard to accompany her.

Aurora gained some boldness after wiping her tears and asked him, "Wait, why will you help me?" She was there for a job, so what did her life have to do with someone like him?

Taking a deep breath, Don Denzel let out softly, "Lisa was special to me."

Aurora froze and suddenly asked, "Are you Denz?" The only male name her sister ever mentioned with affection was that name, and they had just met. Aurora instantly knew that her kid sister had fallen in love.

"Denzel," Don Denzel furrowed his brow and corrected her. Only Lisa called him Denz when he first mentioned his name to her. He loved it, though.

Aurora was strangely excited and began to explain candidly. "The day she met you, she called me on the phone. She said she met the most handsome man in the world and she thinks he likes her too. She mentioned Denz."

Don Denzel’s lips stretched before he could stop it. "That’s what she called me. I was supposed to pick her up from school that day, but I guess I also arrived too late."

He regretted that he hadn’t arrived earlier to wait for her before the closing of the school hours. Aurora found courage in the fact that Don Denzel was her kid sister’s Denz. In that sense, then she could finally get her revenge on the man who killed her sister and destroyed her life.

Something she always wanted to do but didn’t have the means. "If she was as special to you as she was to me, then you should let Don Gambol pay."

That was what Don Denzel thought at first, but now that there were two sides to this story, he didn’t want to make any mistakes. However, Don Gambol would still have to pay for what he did to Aurora even if he was innocent of Lisa’s death.

His problem was with their parents, and he was the same person who killed them. How could they pay whatever they owed when he already took their lives? There were people who owed Don Denzel, but should they die, then his money was lost. Their families were never part of the deal.

"Stay here. A man will come to take you to a secure location to train you secretly for the job. When he confirms from your trainer that you are ready, you will begin work here in this casino."

He almost reached the door when she blocked his path. "Wait, are you going to sell me into prostitution too?"

She shivered from fright when he glared at her. This man was so scary in spite of his handsome looks, so how could Lisa have been infatuated with him at first glance? But after all she had been through, she would rather escape now than fall into another trap with these dons.

"What makes you think so?" Don Denzel asked with disappointment.

Aurora was slightly remorseful but explained carefully, "Those Dons. That’s how they talk. When they mention training, it’s just sexual abuse."

Denzel massaged his nape. It wasn’t a distorted fact that most of these dons behaved like animals.

"I’m Don Denzel, but I’m nothing like them. I will be away for a while but would be updated on your progress. If you want to work for me, then you have to take your training seriously."

Aurora was touched, understanding that he wasn’t going to abuse her. This was the first time she was going to get a decent job. She suddenly felt comfortable around him.

"Can I have your number?"

"Yes, but you only call if it’s urgent." He pushed a card in front of her and left. A few minutes later, Godic entered.

"Our boss said to move you to your new house. You have a car, a personal bodyguard, and an expert to begin training with you. The videos will be sent to him, so you better take things seriously."

Aurora was overwhelmed with happiness, regretting that Lisa had died so young. The things she dreamt of buying for herself and Lisa were being given to her on a platter of Gold.

Now she got the chance to save whatever she’d earn from her work here.

"Your boss, is he married?" She suddenly asked, Godic frowned.

"You should have asked him yourself. Let’s go."

It was unlike any of the bodyguards to give anyone insight into their boss’s love life, though it was just a complicated mess.

Aurora was determined to fill her sister’s place but first of all, she had to make herself likable by gaining all the knowledge needed for her job.
