The Luna Is Gone (Diana and Nathan) by Angelique Quinn novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27 

Diana’s pov 

“Diana? Why are you here?” 

Seeing me, Claud seemed to trigger a stress response. His face was extremely unhappy. 

I glanced at him and asked, “What’s wrong with my being here?” 

“Of course, you –” 

Claud choked up, as if he had just realized my identity as director and let out a cold snort of indignation. 

I smiled and then looked at the crowd. 

They might not recognize my face, but they definitely knew the name of the new director. 

Everyone lowered their heads and quickly dispersed, starting to work. 

I didn’t want to deal with these people in front of me, so I turned around with Ryley and wanted to leave. 

A deep voice came from behind me. 

Nathan stopped me. 

“Diana, we need to talk.” 

I stopped and turned my head. 

I didn’t understand what else Nathan and I could talk about. 

Didn’t he realize that Avia was already unhappy? 

“Nathan, we still need to go for an examination.” Avia hugged Nathan’s arm and gently shook it. 

“You go with the doctor first. I’ll be there in a moment.” Nathan pulled out his arm 

and walked towards me. 

Avia’s expression froze instantly. 

She seemed to want to say something more, but Nathan ordered as he passed by Claud, “Take Avia for an examination first.” 

Avia was clearly reluctant, but in the end she didn’t go against Nathan’s intentions, just gave me a fierce look and left behind Claud. 

To be honest, I didn’t expect this. 

I looked at Nathan who had already walked in front of me and calmly asked, “What’s 

up?” 

Nathan didn’t rush to speak, but instead raised his eyes and gave Ryley, who was standing behind me, a look of disdain. 

“I want to talk to you alone.” 

I sneered. 

“But I don’t want to. If you don’t have much to say, I’ll leave.” 

I pretended to turn around. 

Nathan grabbed my wrist. 

At the same time, Ryley took a step forward and also clenched Nathan’s wrist. 

“Let go of her.” 

Nathan narrowed his eyes slightly and his face turned cold. 

“Don’t meddle in my affairs.” 

Ryley sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. 

I was not sure if Ryley could overpower Nathan, but I’ve seen Nathan’s prowess on the battlefield. 

He once twisted the necks of dozens of tall and strong soldiers in the hostile pack alone. 

It was also because of that battle that he became the highest ranking Alpha! 

I couldn’t let Ryley confront him. The risk was too high. 

“Ryley, go ahead and wait for me.” 

Ryley then released Nathan, gave him a cold look, and strode away. 

“Can you let go of me first?” I asked, suppressing my impatience. 

Nathan withdrew his hand. 

I rubbed my sore wrist, and there were even red marks on it. 

“You violent mania!” I muttered softly. 

“Sorry.” 

“What surprised me was that Nathan apologized to me.” 

I was stunned for a moment and then smiled. 

“Sorry? I don’t know what Alpha Nathan apologized to me for? For scratching me? Or-” 

“For scratching you. And for the matter of the pearl bracelet a week ago. I owe you an apology.” 

I turned my head and didn’t look at his eyes. 

“You should apologize to me, but it doesn’t matter. Your apology won’t change anything, so I don’t need it either.‘ 

Moreover, he owed me a thousand apologies except for these two. 

Nathan frowned slightly. After a moment, he smiled lightly. 

“Yes, you really don’t need my apology now,” Nathan said after a moment of silence. “What is your relationship with the man beside you just now?” 

“None of your business,” I rolled my eyes. 

“My business…” Nathan repeated these words, his smile unchanged, but his gaze became even colder. 

“Do you have anything else to do?” I lost my patience. 

Nathan cleared his throat and when he spoke again, his expression had returned to normal. 

“I saw the 800 million you transferred to me. I have asked the finance department to transfer it back to you.” 

“No need.” I refused without even thinking. 

“Anyway, the incident was caused by me. If I hadn’t interrupted your plan, you wouldn’t have paid so much. Take it as an apology from me.” Nathan said. 

I shrugged casually. 

“At the auction, everyone relies on their strength. There is no such thing as overpaying or not overpaying. Moreover, it’s only 200 million. I can afford it.” 

“Diana, don’t be so stubborn, I- 

Nathan seemed to have something to say, but coincidentally, Claud came back with 

Avia. 

“Nathan!” 

Avia almost trotted into Nathan’s arms and tightly hugged Nathan’s waist. 

She might have just cried, with tears still on her eyelashes.
