NovelBookChapter 739 Seeing Ruby's eagerness to avoid Sullivan, Nyla couldn't help but smile. "Okay, I understand." The experiment finally ended around 7:00 p.m.
After cleaning up the equipment and workspace, Nyla was preparing to leave when Sullivan approached her with a bag of food.
"Nyla, you all worked hard on the experiment, so I brought sfood," he said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSurprised, Nyla raised an eyebrow. "Sullivan, that's very thoughtful of you." Tina, who knew Sullivan well, joined them. "Sullivan, you're as considerate as always." In the past, when they worked late on experiments, he would bring them food. She hadn't expected him to continue even after the teams were split up.
With a friendly smile, Sullivan said, "Of course. You've all been working hard. As the project leader, it's my duty to handle the logistics." Since eating wasn't allowed in the lab, he set the food up in the nearby office.
Although Nyla didn't particularly like Sullivan, she maintained a professional demeanor.
After washing her hands and removing her lab coat, she was about to head to the office when Ruby spoke up from behind her.
"Nyla, I'm feeling a bit tired today, so I'm going to head home," Ruby said.
Nyla turned to find Ruby looking pale, concern flashing in her eyes. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? You look really pale." She stepped forward and touched Ruby's hand, finding it cold.
Ruby quickly pulled her hand back, shaking her head. "It's nothing. I'm just a bit tired. I'll head hfirst." Before Nyla could say anything else, Ruby hurried off.
Watching Ruby leave, Nyla sighed and walked to the office. As soon as she entered, she noticed Sullivan's gaze shift. It wasn't directed at her-it was looking past her.

Tina, surprised to see Nyla without Ruby, asked, "Where's Ruby?" "She said she was tired and went hearly," Nyla replied.
"Qh." Tina didn't dwell on it and resumed eating.
Nyla turned to Sullivan. "Sullivan, why aren't you eating?" "I've already had dinner, so I'm not hungry. I actually have something I need to take care of, so I'll be heading out. Before you all leave, please double-check that the lab and office doors are locked," he reminded them.
