Chapter 118

Diana’s pov

Under the bright and dazzling crystal chandelier, Nathan and William exchanged smiles, shaking hands amicably.

“Whoosh-”

Thunderous applause echoed through the entire auditorium.

Most faces displayed congratulatory smiles, celebrating the alliance of the strongest Pack and the most powerful business conglomerate.

Except for me, standing still below the stage.

Nathan clearly knew about the connection between William and Gummy Skull, so why would he collaborate with him?

I was utterly perplexed.

In a moment of realization, flashes of last night at the bar rushed through my mind.

Suddenly, everything became clear.

There are no such coincidences in the world-

Nathan just happened to be at the same bar at the same time as Ryley!

The actual situation was probably that Ryley accompanied William to that bar to meet Nathan, negotiating today’s collaboration.

No wonder!

No wonder, after the chance encounter with Nathan last night, he asked me if I was still investigating Gummy Skull!

The truth was revealed…
