Chapter 150

Diana’s pov

“I don’t understand. Since you’ve already compromised and agreed to develop the antidote for William, why won’t you try now that there’s a way?”

In the office, Moss frowned, his eyes behind the lenses staring straight at me.

“Things aren’t as simple as you think…” I licked my dry lips. “I admit, adding a large amount of catalyst “can indeed quickly develop an effective antidote, but…”

“But what?” Moss interjected.

I furrowed my brows. “But there are risks.”

Moss sneered, “So is it risky to add a large amount of catalyst, or do you simply not want the antidote to be successful?”

“Moss?” I widened my eyes in surprise. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Is it nonsense?” Moss’s narrow eyes narrowed even more. “Healer, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to! Are you trying to spite William? You don’t want him to get the antidote smoothly!”

“I’m not, I’m just-”

“Don’t try to evade!” Moss roared, picking up his cup and slamming it hard on the floor.

He glared at me, gritting his teeth. “Don’t forget, William said if you can’t develop the antidote, then everyone in the lab will go down with you! Do you want us to die with you?”

I was stunned.

I was stunned.

From the shattered porcelain pieces, my gaze slowly moved to Moss’s face, and I said incredulously, “Moss, you didn’t say this to me before. You said you wouldn’t yield to William, you said-”

“That was before,” Moss interrupted me coldly. “Before, I thought you had enough strength to confront William. But now, even Alpha Nathan has chosen to help William! You have no chance of winning anymore! Do you want me to follow you to death?”

The office fell into dead silence.

After a moment, Moss sighed deeply, and his expression gradually calmed down.

He walked up to me, grasping my shoulders with both hands, and looked at me with pleading eyes. “Healer, I don’t want to die. Please, I beg you, stop going against William. Let’s develop the antidote

Smack!

I raised my hand and slapped Moss hard.

“You disappoint me too much,” I said angrily, glaring at him and pointing at his nose. “Let me tell you, without my permission, no one is allowed to use the catalyst! If anything goes wrong, none of you can bear the responsibility!”

With that, I turned and left the office.
