The Luna Is Gone by Angelique Quinn

Chapter 85

Diana’s pov

I blinked my eyes and said, “Because William can’t stand Lewis’s cruelty?”

Moss smiled and said, “Diana, you’re too naive.”

I was stunned.

When I realized it, the elevator door opened.

Moss walked out first, and I quickly followed him.

“What do you mean? Am I wrong? William…”

Moss suddenly stopped.

He lowered his voice and said, “Too many people here. Keep your voice down.”

I was even more confused.

Moss sighed helplessly.

“The reason why they fight is naturally conflicts of interest. As for trial and justice, that’s what the police need to do.” Moss added, as if afraid I wouldn’t understand, “After all, William is the leader of the world’s largest gang.”

My blood seemed to coagulate in an instant. I stood still, my ears buzzing.

Those helpless girls and innocent lives who have become targets flashed before my eyes…

Was William also doing this kind of business?

“Diana…” Moss looked at me, as if a hint of worry flashed through his eyes.

But soon, that bit of worry disappeared, as if I had misread it.

His smile calmed down a lot. “I’m just saying it. Don’t think too much. The most important thing now is to develop a cure for the Enigma virus.”

When I heard about the Enigma virus, I suddenly came to my senses.

I felt like I was crazy. How could I suspect Uncle Reed, who has taken care of me since childhood?

William has always wanted to develop an antidote to the Enigma virus to save people. How could he run a dark business like this?

“You really scared me just now.” I frowned at Moss and said seriously, “Uncle Reed is important to me. Don’t make such a joke again.”

Moss smiled and didn’t say anything more.

Afterwards, I handed Moss the formula and identified three components for him to match with the Enigma virus before leaving the laboratory.

I needed to go back to the office. I still had an injury on my neck.
