The Luna Is Gone (Diana and Nathan) by Angelique Quinn novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160 

Diana’s pov

There’s nothing 

No warmth of a living person 

No beating pulse

Just an icy chillbelonging to a corpse

I look at Ryley, my hand on his neck shifting slowly, caressing his cheek

There’s still fresh blood on his face

His eyes shut tight, devoid of any life

It dawns on me, at this moment, that Ryley is dead

He’s reallydead…. 

My vision blurs quickly, hot tears falling onto Ryley’s cheeks, mingling with his blood

My lips tremble, broken syllables squeezing out of my throat

RyleyDon’t diePleaseToday’s your birthday, I was going to celebrate with you, I made a birthdaybirthday cakeyou haven’t eatenyou…. 

My voice chokes up

I know, no matter how much I call out, he won’t respond like before

My heart feels like it’s being squeezed by an invisible hand

Suffocating, suffocating pain

I hold onto Ryley, crying uncontrollably

He was killed by you.” 

William’s voice echoes above me

I gave him a chance. I said, as long as he answered my questions, told me your plans, I’d give him. another chance. But he insisted on keeping your secret, refused to speak even as he faced death!” 

1 slowly raise my head, eyes filled with resentment

So, Diana, you think you fooled me. But look, someone always pays the price for your whims. You ble up my lab, destroyed all the research data, took away my researchersfor your mistakes, Ryley paid with his life.” 

All grief and sadness turn into a raging fury in an instant

I can’t control myself

Before I know it, I’ve let go of Ryley, my palm turning into a claw lunging towards William’s face

Of course, I didn’t hurt William

The moment I rushed out, the guards in the room shielded William, taking the blow for him. Then, a flurry of footsteps, dozens of blackclad men storm in

Each of them holding a pistol, surrounding me

William stands outside the crowd, mocking me

You can’t kill me, Diana. Remember, this is my turf.” 

So what?I roar angrily, You killed Ryley, and I’ll avenge him!” 

I lunge at William again

Because of my status, no one dares to shoot me, or lay a hand on me

They only try to protect William, keeping me away from him

But as I’m about to snap the arm of a big guy, my movement suddenly freezes

siming for oun at Duloule farahoad

Miss Relst, If you dare to resist again, we’ll destroy Ryley’s body” 

Miss Reist, if you dare to resist again, we’ll destroy Ryley’s body.” 

I grit my teeth, eyes burning red 

After a moment, I release the big guy, stepping back 

Seeing me give up the attack, William steps out from the layers of protection

I’ve said it, Diana, you can’t kill me. Instead of wasting time here with me, why don’t we talk about our future cooperation?” 

I have nothing to talk about with you,I say coldly

Diana, Ryley won’t be the last person to die for you. Do you want to cause more deaths because of your stubbornness?William asks angrily

I scoff

It’s cooperating with you that causes more deaths! You want to use me to make more money, then produce more drugs, and then you’ll reap endless benefits!” 

Why do you keep bringing up the drug business?William squints, looking at me dangerously. I’ve said it before, I have no connection with Gummy Skull‘ 

That’s just your lie!I shout

William falls silent

After a few seconds, he simply gives up arguing and threatens me, Aren’t you afraid I’ll go after those researchersfamilies?” 

Of course,I reply, but can you find them?” 

William’s face tums pale, his mouth twitching

I look around, coldly saying, Tell your men to back off, I’m taking Ryley with me.” 

What do you think this place is? You think you can just leave?someone interjects

Who do you think I am?I ask coldly, Are you prepared to go to war with Alpha Marc?” 

The interjector suddenly freezes, then lowers their heads, trembling
