Chapter <b>733 </b>


    Ruby shook her head and replied, “I’m fine, N. Just didn’t sleep well. What did you want to discuss<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    There was no way ack of sleep could cause such swelling, but N didn’t push. She understood that everyone had things they preferred to keep to themselves.


    “I’m nning to change the catalyst for the experiment. Can you see if we can try these options this afternoon?” N proposed, handing Ruby a piece of paper with the catalysts she had in mind.


    Ruby nced over it and picked out two options. “I think these two are worth trying. I’ve tested the others before, and they didn’t work well–the reaction time was too long.”


    N nodded. “Alright, let’s go with your suggestions.”


    After finalizing the ns, N was about to return to her desk when she added quietly, “If you’re facing any difficulties, you can talk to me. Don’t let it affect your work.”


    Ruby blinked, clenching her hands. “I understand.”


    Whether because of N’s words or not, Ruby seemed more focused that afternoon. The distraction from the morning was gone.


    After switching the catalyst, their experiment went much more smoothly, and they managed toplete the step before the end of the day. Once the report was written, N and Ruby left work together.


    On their way from theb to the elevator, Ruby’s phone kept ringing. She kept rejecting the calls, but each time, another call came in immediately after. Finally, she turned off her pho


    Tossing the phone into her bag, she looked up and saw N watching her. She stiffened and tried to act casual. “I don’t know who leaked my number, but I’ve been getting a lot of spam calls today.”


    “Just block them,” N replied.


    “Yeah, I will. Oh, N, I just remembered I forgot something. You go ahead,” Ruby said.


    N lowered her gaze, aplicated expression crossing her face. She wanted to help Ruby, but if Ruby didn’t want to open up, there was nothing she could do.


    When N took the elevator down to the basement, Damon’s car was already waiting at the entrance.


    As soon as she got in, he put down the file he was reading and asked, “Did something happen? You seem preupied.”


    N was surprised he’d noticed her mood. She blinked, then shook her head. “It’s nothing.”


    “Buddy said he wanted crab tonight, so I made a reservation. We’ll head to the restaurant directly,” Damon informed her.


    “Okay,” N answered. N?velDrama.Org content.


    Meanwhile, Ruby returned to her desk back at the office.


    The office was empty now. As soon as she turned her phone back on, the calls starteding again. She


    took a deep breath and finally answered.


    “I told you, stop calling me,” she said.

    “Ruby, are you really this heartless? Are you really not going to save your own brother’s life? Do you want to see me and your father die?” Margaret’s voice was filled with resentment and anger.


    Margaret didn’t believe that Ruby’s savings from the past few years amounted <i>to </i>only 30,000 dors. She knew Ruby had worked multiple part–time jobs during university and had received schrships. There was no way she didn’t have money–she just didn’t want to save her brother, Hansel Jenner.


    Ruby almostughed. Hansel was the one who gambled and racked up a debt of tens of thousands, yet Margaret was ming her for being heartless?


    “I already told you, I don’t have the money. What more do you want from me?” she asked.


    “You don’t have money? Then sell a kidney! You have two. Losing one won’t matter. If you don’t want to do that, I’ve arranged a marriage for you back in the vige. You cane home and marry him,” Margaret demanded.
