"No! You're lying to me! That can't be possible, Dimitri, could never kill anybody," Aurora justified. Dimitri could not be the gangster that Nicholas paints him to be. How could they be total polar opposites? She saved lives while he needlessly took other people's will to live.
Nicholas chuckled, "Oh my dear, you are so innocent. I can't wait to see the look on your face when you find out what else he is hiding from you," he sneered. He was definitely enjoying her anguish.
It was undeniable that Nicholas was not a good man, his family was messed up which made him the man he is today. At least Dimitri being the leader of the underworld had a family that loved and respected each other.
