As soon as Mabel heard that, her face paled further. Her mother had been in a car ident half a month ago, and the surgeries and hospitalization had already cost 7,000-8,000 dors. Her savings were nearly depleted. If her father couldn’t find a job soon, they wouldn’t be able to afford the medical expenses next
month.
<b>Lucia’s </b>father was an executive at a subsidiary of Prospectus Technology, so pleasing Lucia could easily <b>secure </b>her father a job. This was why Mabel was willing to be Lucia’sckey.
Her hesitant gaze hardened as she looked at Lucia and sald, “Okay, I’ll do as you say.”
Lucia showed no surprise at this. She raised an eyebrow with a smile. “Good. As long as you handle this well, I’ll have my dad arrange a job for your father tomorrow.”
After Mabel left, Lucia nced toward theb with a smirk.N?velDrama.Org (C) content.
Meanwhile, N ground the drugs and sequentially added them into a beaker along with the solvent, using a ss rod to initiate dissolution. Once the reaction was nearlyplete, she filtered out the residue and transferred the solution into a sk for distition, meticulously recording each step and
time in herb notebook.
This process was repeated five or six times until all the previously ground powder was dissolved.
During the distition process, N stepped away briefly to retrieve 20 milliliters of dilute sulfuric acid from the adjacent reagent storage room, intending to add it to the reaction mixtureter.
Shortly after N left the storage room, a furtive figure sneaked in and switched thebels on the bottles of concentrated and dilute sulfuric acid.
While Mabel did this, her hands trembled. After all, this <b>was </b>her first time plotting against someone like this. After switching thebels back, she hurriedly left.
Back in theb, N finished distilling the reaction mixture, dismantled the sk and condenser, and began setting up a new reaction apparatus. Just as she was about to ignite the alcoholmp, footsteps and voices approached the door.
Everyone in theb turned to see Genevieve entering with a smile on her face, Behind her were over <b>a </b>dozen well–dressed people, led by Damon.
By chance, Damon’s <b>eyes </b>met N’s, but he quickly looked away as if they were strangers.
Genevieve spotted N and quickly said, “N,e over here! Let me <b>introduce </b>you. This is Mr. Sumner, CEO of Prospectus Technology. He’s the one investing in the asthma treatment drug you’re Currently researching.”
N walked up to Damon and greeted him, “Hello, Mr. Sumner. I’m N Jayston, responsible for the -development of the asthma treatment drug.”
“Hello. We’re just here to observe today. No need to be nervous. Just proceed with your experiments as usual,”
“Understood.”
Genevieve smiled at N. “N, continue with your experiment.”
N nodded, then turned and resumed her work at theb bench. She was dressed in a white coat, with her long hair tied back, focused and drawing the attention of others without realizing it.
Damon raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise shing in his
s eyes.
This N waspletely different from the one who had married rk and be a full–time housewife. Apart from her attractive appearance<b>, </b>she now exuded a lively energy that was a stark contrast to her previous reserved and uninteresting demeanor.
After N lit the alcoholmp, she tilted her head slightly as she jotted down in her notebook: [8:37 a.m., began heating.]
When the thermometer in the triangle sk showed a temperature of 75°C, she began pouring the dilute sulfuric acid into the sk. After pouring in just a few milliliters, the solution in the sk suddenly boiled rapidly.
Realizing something was wrong, N quickly stopped, but it was already toote.
The sk suddenly exploded, sending shards and solution sttering everywhere.
Everyone in theb was startled and instinctively moved back.
Genevieve was appalled. She was about to urge Damon to hurry out of theb, but he swiftly moved toward N instead.
