Diana’s pov

I never thought Nathan would help me.

I thought he would choose to stay out of it, even indifferently watching it all unfold

After all, since he chose to cooperate with William, he must have also chosen to abandon his own conscience.

But the reality was different.

I tried to find the reason for Nathan’s actions on his face.

But he concealed it too well, as if making Fisher repeat the entire antidote–making process was just a whim.

Fisher hesitated for a long time without moving.

Nathan impatiently urged, “What? Are your ears not working, or do you simply not want to listen to me?”

“It’s not like that,” Fisher was terrified, shaking like a kite string in the wind, “I just… I just think… waiting would waste your precious time. How about next time when you’re free, I’ll definitely-”

“I’m free right now.”

Nathan didn’t let up on his meaning, his intimidating gaze bearing down on him. Helpless, Fisher could only look to William for help.

I could sense William was getting extremely impatient with Fisher’s foolish behavior.

But in the end, for various considerations, William chose to help Fisher again. “Alpha Nathan, forgive me for being frank, but the development of Gummy Skull is our top secret. Although you are our partner, it’s not quite appropriate for us to develop the antidote for you on the spot.”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Fisher hurriedly agreed, “That’s exactly what I think, not because I can’t…”

William’s excuse was impeccable.

However, Nathan, long accustomed to being in a position of power, was never one to compromise.

He gave a cold smile and said to William, “It seems you don’t trust me. In that case, perhaps I should reconsider our cooperation.”

At this, William’s cheeks slightly hollowed, he clenched his fists, his eyes filled with offended displeasure.

If an ordinary person saw this expression, coupled with his identity as a mafia boss, they would surely be terrified.
