Chapter 151 Dianaâs pov Unlike usual, Nathan wasnât wearing the usual formal suit, but instead had on a white lab coat, something only lab researchers would wear.
At that moment, he had his hand on the handle of the fire exit door, seemingly about to push it open. But upon seeing me, his movement froze.
In his amber eyes, reflected flames filled the sky, along with shock and disbelief.
I thought, this must be my illusion.
How could Nathan possibly be here in the lab? And why would he be dressed so oddly?
Yet, as I was lost in my thoughts, that soâcalled âillusionâ actually ran towards me.
I was completely stunned, so much so that I didnât even notice a beam, broken by the fire, hurtling towards me.
All I saw was Nathanâs pupils suddenly contracting, veins bulging on his forehead.
In the blink of an eye, he was right in front of me.
Then, he grabbed me and pushed me away with one hand, while the other wiped my ear.
Bang!
The intense sound jolted me back to reality.
Instinctively, I glanced back, seeing a blazing pillar rolling on the ground.
I couldnât help but wonder, if Nathan hadnât pushed away that pillar just now, what would have become of me?
âAre you hurt?â he asked urgently, holding my shoulders.
âIâm...Iâm fine,â my head still felt dizzy.
I didnât understand...
Didnât Nathan hate me to death?
Why did he risk coming back to save me when he could have escaped through the door just now? Shouldnât the right thing have been to block the exit, letting me burn along with the raging fire, avenging his Avia?
I really couldnât figure out what he was thinking.
Seeing that I wasnât hurt, Nathan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
His throat visibly swallowed, grabbing my hand, he said, âLetâs get out first.â
I also knew it wasnât the time for random thoughts, so I nodded vigorously and ran with Nathan towards the fire exit.
Tongues of fire and waves of heat chased after us, evaporating the oxygen and moisture around us.
Tongues of fire and waves of heat chased after us, evaporating the oxygen and moisture around us. But fortunately, we were very close to the fire exit, and in a moment, we rushed out.
The flames were separated by the door.
We descended two floors in a row.
Just as he was about to continue running down, I let go of him.
Nathan turned back to look at me, shocked. âAre you out of your mind?â
âAre you the one whoâs out of your mind?â I gasped twice, opened the window at the stairwell, and gestured for him to look up.
âTake a look.â
Dozens of helicopters were hovering above the top floor, on an emergency firefighting mission.
Downstairs, fire trucks were also ready.
âDonât worry, the fire wonât spread.â
I had already made complete preparations long before planning this explosion.
I couldnât possibly harm innocent people just to deal with William I sat down against the wall and wiped the sweat off my temples.
Nathanâs gaze was still fixed on the sky outside the window, his brow slightly furrowed, as if pondering something.
I rested for a while and was about to stand up again when something caught my attention.
It was a notebook, lying right by Nathanâs feet.
âWhatâs this?â I murmured, reaching out to pick up the notebook.
Before Nathan could react to stop me, I managed to grab the notebook and open When I saw what was written on it, my eyes widened in shock.
1. it.
I looked up at Nathan, trembling lips, and asked, âYou actually...actually sneaked into the lab to steal the antidote formula?â
Nathan immediately denied, âHow could you call it stealing?â
âIf this isnât stealing, then what is it?â I shook my head. âI never thought the Alpha of the Dark Moon Pack would stoop to thievery.â
Nathanâs face darkened, glaring at me coldly. He reached out to me, âGive me the notebook.â
How could I give it back to him?
This was the result of my hard work.
Moreover, I had just blown up the entire lab. Who knew if Nathan would turn around and give the data and formula on the book to William?
Then, wouldnât all my efforts be in vain?
But...
1 scrutinized Nathan..
Speaking of William, werenât Nathan and William allies? Why did Nathan have to dress like this to sneak into the lab to steal the formula? Why didnât he just ask William directly?
Seeing that I wasnât budging, Nathan repeated, âGive me the notebook.â
âNope,â I raised an eyebrow. âUnless you tell me why you came to steal the antidote formula?â
I stared at Nathan without blinking, afraid to miss any change in his expression.
However, Nathan just smiled indifferently.
âIâve invested so much in this project, isnât it normal to come and check the goods?â he said.
âIf itâs so normal, why didnât you just tell William directly instead of sneaking behind his back to steal the formula?â I didnât believe Nathanâs words at all, pressing him, âWhat are you up There was a twitch in the corner of Nathanâs eye.
to?â
âThatâs none of your business. Iâll say it again, give me the notebook, donât force me to take action.â
His tone contained a warming.
But I wasnât afraid at all, provocatively smiling. I tore off the page containing the antidote formula right in front of him.
Instantly, Nathanâs eyes widened.
He lunged at me, trying to snatch the paper from my hand But I was fasier than him, and I crumpled the paper and stuffed it into my mouth.
âDiana!â Nathan shouted urgently, âSpit it out!â
âIâve already swallowed it.â I rubbed my throat, which was stung by the paper, âIf you want it, kill me, then cut open my stomach.â
1 met Nathanâs angry gaze headâon.
There was no way I was going to let him have the antidote formula.
âYou...â
Nathan grabbed my arm, glaring at me with gritted teeth.
Several times, I felt like he wanted to strangle me.
But suddenly, his body froze.
Then, he looked down.
Before I could react, his hand was already in my pocket.
It was the detonator!
I hastily reached out to stop him.
But it was too late.
Nathan carefully examined the detonator in his hand, a cold smile playing on his lips.
He raised his eyebrows, giving me a meaningful look, and asked, âDid you set up the explosion?â
