Chapter 160

Diana’s pov!

There’s nothing

No warmth of a living person

No beating pulse.

Just an icy chill–belonging to a corpse.

I look at Ryley, my hand on his neck shifting slowly, caressing his cheek.

There’s still fresh blood on his face.

His eyes shut tight, devoid of any life.

It dawns on me, at this moment, that Ryley is dead.

He’s really… dead….

My vision blurs quickly, hot tears falling onto Ryley’s cheeks, mingling with his blood.

My lips tremble, broken syllables squeezing out of my throat.

“Ryley… Don’t die… Please… Today’s your birthday, I was going to celebrate with you, I made a birthday… birthday cake… you haven’t eaten… you….

My voice chokes up.

I know, no matter how much I call out, he won’t respond like before.

My heart feels like it’s being squeezed by an invisible hand.

Suffocating, suffocating pain.

I hold onto Ryley, crying uncontrollably.

“He was killed by you.”

William’s voice echoes above me.

“I gave him a chance. I said, as long as he answered my questions, told me your plans, I’d give him. another chance. But he insisted on keeping your secret, refused to speak even as he faced death!”

1 slowly raise my head, eyes filled with resentment.

“So, Diana, you think you fooled me. But look, someone always pays the price for your whims. You ble up my lab, destroyed all the research data, took away my researchers… for your mistakes, Ryley paid with his life.”

All grief and sadness turn into a raging fury in an instant.

I can’t control myself.

Before I know it, I’ve let go of Ryley, my palm turning into a claw lunging towards William’s face.

Of course, I didn’t hurt William. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

The moment I rushed out, the guards in the room shielded William, taking the blow for him. Then, a flurry of footsteps, dozens of black–clad men storm in.

Each of them holding a pistol, surrounding me.

William stands outside the crowd, mocking me.

“You can’t kill me, Diana. Remember, this is my turf.”

“So what?” I roar angrily, “You killed Ryley, and I’ll avenge him!”

I lunge at William again.

Because of my status, no one dares to shoot me, or lay a hand on me.

They only try to protect William, keeping me away from him.

But as I’m about to snap the arm of a big guy, my movement suddenly freezes.

siming for oun at Duloule farahoad.

“Miss Relst, If you dare to resist again, we’ll destroy Ryley’s body”

“Miss Reist, if you dare to resist again, we’ll destroy Ryley’s body.”

I grit my teeth, eyes burning red

After a moment, I release the big guy, stepping back

Seeing me give up the attack, William steps out from the layers of protection.

“I’ve said it, Diana, you can’t kill me. Instead of wasting time here with me, why don’t we talk about our future cooperation?”

“I have nothing to talk about with you,” I say coldly.

“Diana, Ryley won’t be the last person to die for you. Do you want to cause more deaths because of your stubbornness?” William asks angrily.

I scoff.

“It’s cooperating with you that causes more deaths! You want to use me to make more money, then produce more drugs, and then you’ll reap endless benefits!”

“Why do you keep bringing up the drug business?” William squints, looking at me dangerously. “I’ve said it before, I have no connection with Gummy Skull‘

“That’s just your lie!” I shout.

William falls silent.

After a few seconds, he simply gives up arguing and threatens me, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll go after those researchers‘ families?”

“Of course,” I reply, “but can you find them?”

William’s face tums pale, his mouth twitching.

I look around, coldly saying, “Tell your men to back off, I’m taking Ryley with me.”

“What do you think this place is? You think you can just leave?” someone interjects.

“Who do you think I am?” I ask coldly, “Are you prepared to go to war with Alpha Marc?”

The interjector suddenly freezes, then lowers their heads, trembling.

I take a deep breath and say again, “William, I’m taking Ryley, Will you stop me?”

Almost as I speak, I release my Alpha aura.

My power is naturally not as strong as Marc’s, but making these lackeys feel uncomfortable is still achievable.

William’s complexion turns a few shades whiter.

After about half a minute, he finally chooses to concede.

“If you want to leave, how could I possibly stop you?”

I don’t look at him again, carrying Ryley on my back, heading towards the door.

As I pass by William, his icy voice rings in my car.

“Diana, you’d better make sure those people never appear in front of me again, otherwise, their fate will be even worse than Ryley’s.”

“Of course. I’ll never let you threaten me again,” I say firmly.

I bring Ryley back to Mystic Moon Woods.

In the forest, I choose a beautiful spot as his burial site.

On the day of Ryley’s burial, the weather is gloomy, with a light rain falling from the sky, as if the mo goddess herself is mourning for him.

All the researchers and their families come to bid farewell to their benefactor, Ryley.

I watch as Ryley lies in the coffin, buried under the soil, feeling like everything is so unreal.

My heart feels empty, like a piece is missing

Two days later, I received Nathan and Avia’s wedding Invitation.
