Chapter 90 Dianaâs pov I was not sure how much Nathan had heard. Or would he doubt my identity from my colleagueâs words?
âHealer, whatâs wrong?â The female colleague looked at me with a puzzled expression.
âNothing,â I breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew my gaze.
Thank goodness, Nathan didnât seem to notice what was happening here. He still lowered his head and looked absentâminded.
âRemember,â I looked at my colleague and reminded, âNext time talk about the antidote in our lab.â
As Healer, my identity couldnât be exposed. And all researchers in the laboratory were aware of this.
My colleague finally realized. She was embarrassed and guilty, whispering, âSorry, Healer, I forgot...â
âItâs okay,â I smiled at her. âThe elevator is coming. Letâs go in.â
âHealer.â
Just as we were to take the elevator, Nathan suddenly stopped me.
In an instant, my heart almost rushed to my throat.
I managed to calm down and turned to look at Nathan.
He was walking towards me.
âAlpha Nathan, is there anything else?â
Nathan stood in front of me, staring straight at me, his eyes full of exploration.
âDid you return to the hospital yesterday?â He asked.
Cold sweat appeared in my hands.
Sure enough, he still heard it.
âYes,â I smiled. âA patient needs a followâup examination, so I left the hospital for a while.â
âShe said you brought back the antidote.â Nathan looked at the female colleague.
âDiana handed it to me. I just brought it to the lab. Is there anything wrong?â I asked.
Nathan squinted his eyes and said, âYou said thereâs a patient who needs a followâup examination. Who is that patient?â
I didnât expect Nathan to be so cautious this time.
If I couldnât come up with a reason, I even suspected he would take off my mask to see who I really was.
âItâs Henryâs younger brother,â I said calmly. âYou know I treated Henryâs brother before.â
Nathan furrowed his brow, as if he didnât believe my words.
I was afraid that staying longer would reveal even greater flaws, so I quickly said, âThe elevator has arrived for a long time. Since you have nothing else to say, Iâll leave first.â
I gave my colleague a glance, and she immediately released the elevator button and entered the elevator at the fastest speed possible.
I followed closely behind.
However, just as I was about to step into the elevator, Nathan grabbed my arm and pulled me back.
My back hit his broad chest, and I could only watch the elevator door automatically close.
âNathan, you .â
My voice came to a sudden halt.
I thought Nathan must be crazy. He lowered his head and started sniffing my neck. The scorching breath sprayed onto my skin.
In an instant, I felt goosebumps all over my body, with hairs standing on end.
âYou smell like her,â Nathan murmured.
of me.â
âI donât understand what youâre saying. Let go of I wanted to break free from him, but his strength was too strong.
âI remember there was a wound left by Lewis on Dianaâs neck,â Nathan said. âIâll just take a look. And Iâll know whether youâre Dianaâ
Nathan pinched my chin with one hand and forced me to lift my head, while the other hand tried to tug at my collar.
Just then, a sharp voice rang out around meâ
âAlpha Nathan!â
The next second, I felt another force grab me and pull me out of Nathanâs embrace It was Moss.
âWhat are you doing to Healer?â
âItâs none of your business,â Nathan shouted impatiently, âGet out of the way!â âItâs none of my business?â Moss sneered, âThe entire lab relies on Healer. Her safety is naturally related to me.â
âI didnât intend to hurt her. I just want to confirm one thing,â Nathan frowned and growled again, âGet out of the way!â
Nathanâs pupils were gradually deepening. I had no doubt that if Moss continued to stand here, he would emit Alpha aura.
âMoss,â I sighed and patted his arm, saying, âIâll explain it to Alpha Nathan.â
I took a step forward and looked up at Nathan, âI know what youâre trying to confirm. Are you suspecting that Diana and I are the same person?â
Nathan looked at me in silence.
I untied my collar and exposed my smooth neck, which had no wounds on it. Nathanâs eyes widened, his expression filled with astonishment.
âNow, do you still think Iâm her?â
âI âAs for the smell on me, I have explained that it was just a perfume. Diana and I are friends, but we are not the same person, Alpha Nathan. Donât make such mistakes anymore.â
Nathan stood there dumbfounded.
I grabbed Mossâs wrist and walked away.
After going downstairs, Moss asked me, âWhy did Nathan suddenly suspect your identity?â
âItâs not the first time that he doubted my identity.â
I didnât tell Moss about that female colleagueâs slip of tongue.
Moss had always been strict in handling things. If he found out, that colleague would definitely suffer.
âAre you here to find me?â I changed the topic.
Moss nodded and said, âWilliam is here.â
âUncle Reed? Where is he now?â
âThe lab.â
When Moss and I entered the laboratory, William was talking about Enigmaâs antidote with a researcher.
Seeing Moss and me, he gestured for the researcher to leave first.
âDiana, Moss has told me about you sneaking into Blood Shadow Pack alone. Youâre being reckless.â
I touched my nose and said, âBut I came back safely.â
âFortunately, you returned safely. Do you know how worried I was when I first heard this news, and how scared I was afterwards?â William snorted coldly.
âI was wrong. Donât be angry,â I apologized with a smile.
William sighed and his face softened. âDonât do such dangerous things again, okay? Even if you have to, you must tell me so that I can send someone to protect you. Speaking of protection...what was Ryley doing? He didnât even know about you entering Blood Shadow Gang. I should punish him hard!â
âNo! Uncle Reed, I deliberately kept it from Ryley. It has nothing to do with him. If you want to blame, then blame me,â I said.
William sighed again, âHow could I blame you? Youâre my treasure. Forget it, I wonât punish him this time. You also have to remember, if you donât want Ryley to be punished, do not hide anything from me, okay?â
Williamâs warning of concern made me feel guilty.
Not long ago, I just went to The Enchantment without telling him to investigate Gummy Skull.
Moreover, according to the time provided by the nurse, the next time to take the medication would be this Saturday.
Should I tell William about this?
âWhatâs wrong, Diana? What are you thinking?â William asked, his eyes full of worry. âHave you not been resting well lately? If youâre too tired, go rest first. You know, for me, your health is the most important.
I felt even more guilty and said, âUncle Reed, thereâs actually one thing I havenât told you. I...â
âDiana,â Moss interrupted me, âAre you going to tell Mr. William about the results of our antidote research?â
âI...â
instinctively wanted to deny it, but Moss didnât give me a chance.
âIâll tell Mr. William about this. You can go take a sample of the antidote.â
I blinked my eyes and said, âWell, okay.â
I turned around and left.
Williamâs surprised voice came from behind, âYou have made a sample of Enigmaâs antidote?â
âYes, but the specific efficacy is still being tested, so....
Mossâs voice gradually faded away, and I was filled with doubts. I didnât understand why Moss stopped me from telling Reed that I was investigating Gummy Skull privately.
For William, Moss seemed to have been holding a defensive mentality.
What was going on between them?
After taking the sample, I handed it over to William.
Williamâs eyes were almost glowing, âIs this the antidote to Enigma virus?â
âItâs just a sample. Although it can inhibit the Enigma virus, we are not sure if there will be any sequelae, such as ââ
âItâs not important.â
Before I could finish speaking, William interrupted excitedly.
I was stunned, âThe sequelae...not important?â
William paused and said, âWhat I mean is, since you have developed a sample of the antidote, you will definitely find a way to prevent the sequelae. Everything is going in the right direction.â
William patted my shoulder and said, âDiana, you are my hope, the hope of all werewolves. I express my thanks to you on behalf of those who are being tormented by Enigma virus.â
Williamâs voice choked up. He even wanted to bow to me, and I helped him in time.
âDonât do this, Uncle Reed. The success is not just because of me. The other researchers in the lab, you, and...Penny, all of you have put in a lot of effort,â I said. William nodded repeatedly.
âYou reminded me,â he said, âIâm going to Pennyâs grave to tell her this good news. I canât wait anymore.â
William strode outside.
After William left, I turned to Moss and said, âWhy did you stop me just now?â
âI should have told you before that I donât fully trust William,â Moss said.
âI donât understand. You just saw Williamâs attitude. Heâs really a good person.â
âItâs easy to fake it.â Moss said. âAnyway, with Williamâs identity as a gang leader alone, I canât completely trust him, let alone...â
Mossâs voice paused, his eyebrows furrowed, âWhere is the sample?â
âThe sample...â I blinked, âIt seems to have been taken away by William.â
âWe have only one bottle of sample now,â Moss said seriously.
âI... Iâm chasing him.â
I quickly ran outside and headed for the elevator.
However, when I passed by the fire escape, I stopped.
Through the door, I heard Williamâs excited voiceâ
âNotify the factory to start working. With this formula, we can definitely make a killing!â f
