章節 177: Chapter 177: Diha

Tuesday. Thames House. London, United Kingdom.

DIHA HIT SEND ON her last report.

Since Miles was technically still on leave, she was supposed to send these to the Deputy Director General herself. Still, Diha had copied Miles out of spite.

He hadn't spoken to her since those moments after Valentino had been killed. Diha had foolishly thought when he ran to her that everything would be okay. After that final embrace, he'd pulled back until he wouldn't even look at her.

Zora closed the lab door behind her. "Any luck?"
