The Luna Is Gone by Angelique Quinn

Chapter 100

William was left speechless by my question, his face dark and uncertain. After a moment, his tense body suddenly relaxed.

“Indeed, you heard that call,” he looked at me and asked, “How much did you hear?”

“I heard you telling the other person that the factory could start working, and with this formula, you would surely make a fortune. William, this formula is the antidote for Enigma, right?”

I felt foolish for making various excuses for William earlier.

“Yes,” William admitted more openly than I expected. He said, “But what’s wrong with what I did? Diana, I’m a capitalist, not a philanthropist. I won’t give the antidote for free to those drug addicts! Is there a problem with me making money? In fact, I’ve never hidden my true identity from you, haven’t I? You clearly know I control the world’s largest mafia. I thought you knew what kind of person I am.”

“But I thought you had limits and wouldn’t engage in drug trafficking! Moreover, you know the harm caused by Gummy Skull is more than just serious drug problems!”

“Who told you I’m involved in drug trafficking? Do you have any evidence?” William

turned his head, staring at me coldly.

I was instantly speechless. As he said, I didn’t have direct evidence.

William sneered, “Diana, you’ve been audacious enough today. Get out!”

I didn’t move.

“Moss, take her away.”

William’s stern voice echoed in the office, and Moss grabbed my arm.

“Diana, let’s go,” Moss said.

I snapped back and shook him off. “No, I can’t leave yet. There are still things I need to ask!”

“What else do you want to ask? Mr. William has explained it clearly.” Moss said.

“Moss…” I blinked in disbelief.

Moss grabbed my wrist again and pulled me out of William’s office.
