Chapter 129

Diana’s pov

Upon hearing that, I felt like I had been struck by lightning.

My mind buzzed, and everything went black before my eyes.

I had to use all my willpower to barely stand firm.

With trembling hands, I hung up the phone and turned to face William and Nathan, just a few steps away, in the cold and damp sea breeze..

Almost instinctively, I felt a connection between this shipwreck and them.

“Did you do this?” I angrily questioned William, meeting his gaze.

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. I just came here with Alpha Nathan for an inspection today. It seems like we’ve interrupted a little date,” William said, glancing between me and Moss. Without waiting for my response, he patted Nathan’s shoulder, saying, “Looks like we’ve spoiled the little couple’s mood.” Whether it was my imagination or not, when William said this, the pressure around Nathan seemed even lower.

But I didn’t pay much attention to it.

Clearly, there were more important things to address now.

I stepped forward, looking up at Nathan. “Tell me, is this related to you?”

Nathan stared at me, his gaze not on my face but seemingly on my clothes, expressing strong dissatisfaction.

“Tell me!” I raised my voice.

Only then did Nathan come to his senses, sneering coldly. “What are you talking about? You already knew about my cooperation with William, didn’t you?”

I took a step back in disbelief. “So, you were really involved?”

My voice shattered in the sea breeze.

After a moment, a raging fire surged in my heart.

I grabbed Nathan’s collar. “Why? Why would you do this to me? Have you no conscience? Cooperating with William is one thing, but doing something so malicious? Do you really think human lives are so worthless? How can you be like this?”

The crew of a freighter…

Stranding, sinking… their chances of survival were almost slim.

Nathan could retaliate against me, but why involve the innocent?

My heart ached, and my head throbbed fiercely.

Disappointment, anger, frustration, helplessness… a mix of emotions pressed on my chest, almost suffocating me.
