The Luna Is Gone (Diana and Nathan) by Angelique Quinn novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21 

Diana’s pov 

Avia kept increasing the force stepping on the bracelet. 

I even heard the sound of pearls stucking into the carpet and rubbing against the ground! 

I glared at Avia angrily. 

“Don’t get too far! Stop or you’d pay.” 

“So what if I just go farther?” Avia laughed, “The more you cherish it, the more I will destroy it! Didn’t you say this is your mother’s legacy? Then let it disappear with your mother! This is the price you must pay for trying to steal Nathan from me!” 

There was madness and viciousness in Avia’s eyes. 

I couldn’t hold back the anger in my heart anymore, so much so that I didn’t even hear the elevator door behind me open and someone come out. 

I raised my hand and just was about to slap on Avia’s face. 

However, someone grabbed my wrist! 

Then, Nathan’s cold voice sounded behind me. 

“What are you going to do to Avia?” 

Avia immediately changed her face when she saw Nathan. 

Her eyes quickly turned red and acted terrified like I was some demon taking her life. “Nathan, she’s going to-” 

Snapped! 

Before Avia could finish speaking, I raised my other arm and slapped her hard. 

Avia screamed, covered her face and collapsed to the ground. 

I looked at the scene in front of me with cold eyes and turned to stare at Nathan, who looked shocked, with a furious expression on his face. 

“I’m going to beat her, what are you going to do?” 

“Are you crazy?” Nathan growled, gazing at me so coldly like knives shoving towards me. 

He grabbed my wrist and threw me to one side, and hurriedly went to help Avia who fell to the ground. 

My knees were still aching, and Nathan’s move almost caused me to fall again. 

I barely managed to stand firm by holding on to the wall, but there was a “click” from my ankle. 

Severe pain came and I knew my foot must be crooked. 

I looked at Nathan and Avia angrily. 

Nathan carefully lifted Avia up and was nervously checking her right cheek. “Are you okay? Does it hurt?” 

Nathan’s eyes were filled with worry. 

Avia threw herself into his arms and burst into tears. 

“You’re finally back Nathan, I’m so scared!” 

Nathan patted her back gently and asked, “What happened?” 

“This woman…” Avia choked while pointing at me, “This woman came over to me and asked for a pearl bracelet. If I didn’t give it to her, she would beat me.” 

Hearing this, Nathan frowned. 

“I bought the bracelet for Avia. If you have any problem, come at me! Avia is innocent and knows nothing. Besides, she just had surgery, how could you do it?” Nathan’s questioning voice just made me laugh. 

Innocent? 

Know nothing? 

An innocent who intentionally destroyed my mother’s legacy? 

Who knew nothing but wore s*xy lingerine to claim ‘No one can steal Nathan from her‘? 

How ridiculous! 

“Then why don’t you ask Avia what she did first?” I yelled. 

“I…I didn’t do anything. I wanted to go to sleep.” Avia shook her head in Nathan’s arms, looking pitiful. 

Nathan patted her shoulder, “It’s okay, don’t be afraid. I’m here.” 

Avia wiped her tears and nodded obediently. 

However, from an angle that Nathan couldn’t see, she was raising the corners of her mouth proudly at me. 

Suddenly I made up my mind. 

Yeah, what’s the use of me arguing about the truth? 

Nathan loves Avia, his eyes and heart are biased towards Avia. 

No matter what I say, he will only believe Avia. 

I closed my eyes. 

When I opened it again, my mood had calmed down a lot. 

“Forget it.” I endured the pain in my ankle and walked up to Nathan, “I only came here for one thing. I want to get back my pearl bracelet. Alpha Nathan, you took it away without my knowledge. Don’t you think your behavior is too despicable for something that belongs to me?” 

At the mention of this, a trace of uneasiness flashed across Nathan’s face. 

He was silent for a moment and then said, “I can give you a more precious bracelet. There will be an auction the day after tomorrow. I know there is one from –” “I don’t want it!” I interrupted his soliloquy, “I just want this pearl bracelet!” 

“Impossible!” Nathan decisively rejected me, “This bracelet is a legacy of Avia’s mother.” 

I was stunned. 

“You said…the pearl bracelet is…a legacy of…Avia’s mother?” 

“Yes. So even for this reason, you shouldn’t rob it. Diana, I remember that you were a compassionate person in the past.” 

“Robbing?” I felt incredible, “That bracelet is obviously- 

“Nathan…” Avia’s weak voice interrupted me. She tugged on Nathan’s sleeve and said, “My head is starting to feel uncomfortable again. Can we go back to sleep?” 

Hearing this, Nathan half–armed Avia to enter the house. 

“No! You can’t leave!”
