Chapter 54 Diana's pov Pop! The cup fell to t ground, shattering into pieces.

| looked at Nathan in shock, unable to believe my ears.

“Are you crazy? Do you know what you're talking about? “I said, if Victor were a hindrance between us, then | would kill him! If he died, your wouldn't use the damn second chance to reject me! After Nathan finished speaking, he chuckled lightly again and said, “With the fact that he dared to let you give birth to his child, | should have killed him long ago.

| tried to find a trace of reason in Nathan's eyes.

But he was clearly calm and had no intention of joking.

At smoment, | wanted to kick him out.

However, after seeing his painful and weak expression, my heart softened.

After adjusting my breathing a few times, | sat back on the sofa.

| have decided to calmly talk to Nathan to avoid him continuing to go crazy.

“I lied to you about one thing,” I said. “Victor and | are not mates. He is just | friend. You don’t need to have so much hostility towards him.” my As soon as | finished speaking, Nathan's eyes suddenly lit up. Even his originally pale face improved, as if his becradiant at once.

| frowned and suddenly felt a little helpless.

“I mean our problem has nothing to do with Victor. Even if you kill him, it won't solve anything. Do you understand?” “And what about that child?” “What?” I didn’t react for a moment.

| didn’t expect Nathan to suddenly shift the topic.

“That child!” Nathan repeated again, his tone becoming increasingly urgent, as if eager to hear the answer, almost losing the composure that an Alpha should have. “If you and Victor have never been together, whose child is that? Is -” “No!” | interrupted him in a cold voice, lying calmly. “That child was not born to me. He is a relative’s child. Due to sunforeseen circumstances, | adopted him.” “Your relative?” Nathan squinted at me. “What kind of relatives? Because of what? Why do they hand over the child to you instead of someone else? Also, why does Lionel have Alpha aura on him? Why was he born exactly ten months after you left me? Diana, don’t you think all of this is too coincidental? Or are you lying to me?” | silently clenched my fist, but my face remained expressionless.

“Lionel is my cousin’s child, so he has an Alpha aura on him. My cousin and his wife died in the war with Shadow Pack three months ago. Because April is pregnant and unable to take care of their child, Mare gave their child toto raise. If you don’t believe me, you can investigate it ” “No need,” Nathan's expression darkened. “I've heard of that war.” | cleared my throat and slowed down my voice.

“Okay, I've explained everything. Your injury is in the heart, so it’s best not to have too much emotional fluctuations. It will delay the healing time. You should rest well now” “Diana, 1..." “Or | can leave the office for you and I'll go somewhere else.” | was implying Nathan not to continue the previous topic..

Upon hearing this, Nathan awkwardly averted his gaze and said stiffly, “Don’t misunderstand. | just want to ask who saved me.

“Healer,” | said concisely.

Nathan sneered coldly, “I knew it was that woman. That knife was stuck in my heart.

No one else besides her could makewake up so quickly.” “Your wolf is also powerful,” | said casually.

“It’s not important,” Nathan waved his hand and furrowed his brow. “So, how much did that woman ask you for this time? 300 million, 500 million, or more?” “I blinked, “Why do you think Healer wanted so much money from me?” Nathan sneered.

“Isn't this Healer’s usual method? Besides, Healer hatesso much. How was she willing to savewithout a large amount of money? She might wantto die.” | coughed twice suddenly and muttered to myself, “Am | acting so obvious?” Nathan continued to ask, “How much money did she ask you for? I'll give you back the money.” “No, she...” | was about to explain when suddenly there was a hurried knocking at the door. | got up to open the door.

However, just as | opened the door, a slap ctowards me.

| didn’t have tto dodge. As soon as | saw the palm about to hit my cheek, Nathan grabbed my arm and draggedinto his arms.

| just saw clearly that the person was Avia.

Avia missedand suddenly learned forward under the influence of inertia.

Avia missedand suddenly leaned forward under the influence of inertia, stumbling several steps in a row before almost falling head-on to the ground. She stood steadily by holding onto the sofa, turned her head and glared at me. When she saw Nathan holding me, the anger in her eyes beceven more intense. | thought if her gaze could turn into sharp blades, | would already be riddled with wounds.

“Avia, what are you doing?” Nathan stepped forward, his tall figure blocking me.

My heart beat twice fiercely.

This was the first tthat Nathan had chosen to protectin front of another Womall Most of the tin the past, | could only watch him stand in front of another woman.

and confronthead-on.

Avia’s face appeared momentarily bewildered, as if she couldn't believe her own eyes.

She was stunned for a moment, her expression gradually twisted.

“What am | doing? Of course | want to teach this bitch a lesson! You are injured because of her! She's a bane!” My nerves twitched and | looked up at Avia, coldly asking, “How did you know about this?” “I...” Avia licked her lips, her eyes flickering. “Of course, someone saw it and told me!” | couldn’t help but frown, feeling that something was wrong.

At this moment, Avia looked at Nathan again.

“Nathan, do you know how worried | was when | knew you're injured? I've been looking for you everywhere. | didn’t expect you to be here with her!” Avia pointed atand shouted angrily, “You even questionedfor her!” “That's enough, Avia.” Nathan said sternly, “You don’t need to worry about my things. You can go back. Don’t ever trouble Diana again.” “What are you saying?” Avia’s eyes seemed to split. “How could you treatlike this? I'm worried about you!” “But | don’t need it,” Nathan's voice grew colder and sharper. “Go back. Don’t letrepeat it a third time.” Avia’s shoulders trembled with anger. Her gaze was malicious as if she was about to tearapart.

But in the end, she still left under Nathan's pressure.

Nathan turned to look atand said, “I apologize for Avia. | may have spoiled her.” Nathan let out a sigh.

| shook my head absentmindedly and my mind was filled with Avia’s abnormal reactions.

reactions.

Although I didn’t have any evidence yet, | always felt that the assassination was related to her.

| instinctively looked at Nathan, hesitating whether to tell him my doubts or not. However, after thinking, | still gave up on this idea.

After all, Avia was Nathan's beloved sister. | couldn't suspect her based solely on intuition.

Besides, perhaps | was really overthinking.

“Diana?” Nathan asked. “What are you thinking?” “No,” | whispered, “You can go back.” “Are you drivingaway?” Nathan increased his volume.

“| felt speechless for a moment, “Or | can leave.” Nathan stopped speaking and slowly moved towards the door.

However, before he could move to the door, a doctor rushed in.

“Crazy!” The doctor was still in shock, bending over and pounding his knee. “Many patients... many patients have gone crazy!” | suddenly widened my eyes.

The doctor gasped and explained, “Half an hour ago, when the nurse was making a rounds, she found that several patients were crazy. The symptoms were exactly the sas Avia’s! We.....

We can’t control it anymore! “
