The Luna Is Gone by Angelique Quinn

Chapter 143

Diana’s pov

A bone–chilling sensation crawled up my spine all the way to the top of my head. I froze, my voice slightly trembling.

I couldn’t believe it and questioned, “What did you say?”

Nathan’s gaze turned icy. “I said I want you to persuade Diana to donate blood for Avia.”

A huge sense of absurdity rose in my heart.

Along with it came anger and deepening disgust for the man in front of me.

Nathan sensed my resistance.

“I can offer you a generous reward. As long as you successfully persuade Diana to donate blood for Avia, I don’t care how much money it costs.

Nathan’s heartfelt words made Avia smile again.

She looked at Nathan with tender emotion, confessing, “Nathan, I love you.” Nathan didn’t respond to her, but he gently stroked her hair and solemnly said, “I will never let you be in danger.”

My stomach churned, and I almost vomited.

Forcing back the discomfort, I said coldly, “Anyway, no matter what price you offer, I will never persuade Diana for you. Give up on that idea.”

I turned to leave.

Nathan’s icy voice sounded behind me.

“Healer, don’t forget, I helped you in the lab just now.”

“Of course, I haven’t forgotten.” I stopped but didn’t turn back. “But if I remember correctly, I only agreed to come and see Avia for you. I’ve done that. As for anything else, I’m sorry, but I can’t help you.”

I walked out of the ward quickly.

I was afraid that if I delayed for another second, I would vomit because of the nauseating atmosphere inside.

Back in the lab, I went into my office.

Just as I breathed a sigh of relief, I heard hurried footsteps behind me.

Then, a short, stout hand grabbed my shoulder, forcibly turning me around.

I didn’t even get a clear look at the person’s face before a sharp slap hit my face- Smack!

The person used full force, as if there was a raging fire in their heart that needed to be vented.

My glasses flew off instantly, the lenses shattering.

My body tilted to the right, my waist hitting the edge of the desk. Intense pain made my vision go black.
