While Debos indulged in lust with the two ladies, the subordinate went down to the first floor of the casino to carry out the boss's orders. He walked to the back of the room and entered a hidden door.In the secret room, there were 4 men smoking, drinking and playing poker. None of them had the appearance of a good samaritan, just seeing them showed their bad ways, they were Debos's 4 trusted men, adding to the one who had just entered, they were the 5 gang member's trusted men. They had started on this journey with him since they were a small gang in the slums and now that they had come to these instances, he had not treated them badly. "We have work," said the newcomer, making everyone stop their game and pay attention. "It's simple, you will go to the Heavenly Palace as clients, the boss wants to know, what is the fighting forces, the money and the beauties there," He added without changing his expression. One of the 4 seated men got excited and asked, "All free?", "Yes, everything is paid by the boss, take it as a gift, just collect information and don't cause problems," replied the man who delivered Debos' orders. Not wasting any more time, the man threw a small leather bag with several coins in the middle of the table. The 4 men took the bag and left without saying anything else.

Just by seeing them, Oliver knew that they did not predict anything good, Victor also reached the same conclusion and sent the message to the office where Andrew was. "It seems that our enemy doesn't plan to wait", Andrew whispered as he sighed and Carolina, who managed to hear his comment, asked, "What do you mean?", "Nothing important", answered Andrew, avoiding the question. Carolina did not like Andrew's evasion at all and she, a little annoyed, claimed, "I am the manager of this place, I need to know what is happening." Honestly, her angry face has her own charm, that was Andrew thought. Andrew wasn't going to say anything to Carolina, but he noticed that the girl was getting seriously angry and not wanting to bear her fury, he told her the situation. Carolina immediately remembered the event of the previous night and unconsciously her body began to shake a little. Although he was a social idiot, he had eyes, and seeing Carolina trembling, he approached her, took a seat next to her, and warmly took her in his arms, pulling her close to his chest, giving her a tender and comforting hug, while saying, "Don't worry, I'll protect you". Andrew's words brought security to Carolina, she was not clear about the reason, but she felt that if she was with him, nothing would happen to her and unconsciously she snuggled comfortably into Andrew's chest, returning the hug. The two remained embraced for a few seconds, but it seemed eternal to them, also they did not have a single thought in their minds, they were only comfortably embraced, but the 4 men sent by Debos had already arrived at the reception. Despite the appearances of the men, they did not cause trouble, nor did they act arrogant, they behaved like normal customers with money. After evaluating the courtesans, they requested that Dami, Sally, Etna and Gina be their escorts and the 8 of them entered one of the most private rooms. Oliver fearing the worst, stayed close to that room to be able to act if something happens, but strangely nothing abnormal happened. The men ordered food and drinks, enjoyed the services of the girls and even left a tip. Debos's men left at dawn. After their departure, Oliver wasted no time in questioning Dami, Sally, Etna and Gina about what they could find out about the men, but was disappointed that the men did not release any relevant information. Leaving the courtesans to rest, Oliver arrived at the office to inform the boss about what happened, but upon entering he was surprised to see Carolina there as well. He knew that the girl was a great manager, but he also knew that her character was not the right one for these situations. Even so, he just told all the information without thinking about Caroline's feelings, in his mind, if Andrew allowed her to be there, it was because he didn't care, so he reported without holding anything back, even giving his thoughts and recommendations. Andrew nodded and allowed him to go. The office was silent for a moment until Carolina broke in by saying, "I think Oliver's suggestion of getting more guards is necessary." Andrew didn't answer her, but nodded slightly, showing his agreement. Carolina got up with the intention of going back to her room, but when she was about to go out she remembered the warm embrace with Andrew and she blushed, she had never experienced anything like that and pressing her lips as if seeking courage, she turned around and walked towards Andrew and taking him for surprise kissed his cheek awkwardly. Andrew couldn't react and when he was going to ask, Carolina had left the office like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Andrew froze in the middle of the office, touching his freshly kissed cheek and soon a smile broke out on his face as he said, "This girl." Carolina got to her room with her face as red as a tomato and almost fuming with shame, she didn't know why she had done what she did and throwing herself on the bed she screamed in shame while a pillow covered her face and drowned out the noise, "AHHH , Why did I do that?, Nooo, what am I going to do tomorrow? How I will see his face?" Unlike Andrew, she had a hard time sleeping that night and while they were both enjoying the realm of dreams, the 4 men had returned with Debos and were reporting all the details of their mission. "So, how many guards do they have?" Debos asked, still sitting arrogantly in his chair, and one of the 4 men replied, "Boss, we only saw about 5 or 6 guards, they don't look like anything special". "I see, that's good, what about the money?" Debos commented before asking again. "Well, we're not too sure, but they definitely do a lot for a place of that size, the place is full and the courtesans aren't cheap for a small place like that", answered another of the 4 men he trusted. "Boss, I know the beauties are coming now, we know you so I will report now, the courtesans are not the most beautiful women we have ever seen, but they are all above average and their skills in bed are not small," another of the men informed, since he knew what his boss would ask next. Debos only nodded with his head showing a smile, while he thought, "My men know me well" and leaving that thought aside he thought for a few minutes, no one in the room made a sound, everyone waited for Debos to speak. "I want that business, start putting pressure on it, send people to cause trouble, I want them to understand the danger of the area, so they needed our protection and little by little we will take it all," Debos said arrogantly as if it were a great strategy. All the others in the room loudly said, "Yes", leaving to fulfill their obligations or at least they would do so the next day, since it was not early and nothing could be done at this time. What Debos and his men did not know was that in the shadows there was a silhouette that had witnessed the entire meeting and it was not until they had all left the room that, like a ghost, the silhouette disappeared into the shadows.
