    Chapter <b>749 </b>


    However, Ruby didn’t n to go alone and intended to invite N along.


    After she shared what had happened the previous night, N’s expression darkened.


    “Why didn’t you tell mest night? Did you call the police<b>?</b><b>” </b>N asked.


    Ruby nodded. “Yes, I reported it, and the police are investigating now.”


    N’s gaze dimmed. If she had any hope left for her parents, it was now gone. Ruby genuinely intended <b>to </b>cut


    ties with them.


    If the police discovered that the person who tried to drug and abduct her was indeed acting on her parents‘ orders, she wouldn’t let it slide easily.


    Seeing the determination and strength in Ruby’s eyes made N’s heart ache.


    She took Ruby’s hand and said, “Alright, I’ll go with you tonight. Sullivan saved your life<b>, </b>so it’s only right to invite him to dinner<b>.</b><b>” </b>


    “Thank you, N,” Ruby replied.


    N sighed and spoke seriously. <b>“</b>If anything like this happens again, you must tell me right away.”


    Ruby’s eyes shimmered with gratitude. <b>“</b>N, thank you!”


    “Alright, enough with the pleasantries. Go take a break,<b>” </b>N said.


    “Okay,” Ruby answered.


    After Ruby left, N hesitated for a long time before sending Damon a message, hoping he could help Ruby find out who had tried to kidnap her.


    About ten minutester, she finally received a response from him.


    Damon: [N, I expectpensation for helping others.]


    N bit her lip. N?velDrama.Org content.


    N: [What kind ofpensation do <b>you </b>want?]


    Damon: [Let me think… How about you cook for me this weekend?]


    Upon reading this, N felt a wave of relief.


    Thankfully, it wasn’t too difficult a request. At the same time, she felt <b>a </b>little disappointed. <b>Was </b>she… <b>secretly </b>hoping <b>for </b>something?


    She pushed those thoughts aside, took a deep breath, and replied: [Okay<b>.</b>]


    Damon didn’t reply after that, likely because he was busy


    <b>N </b><b>set </b>her phone <b>down </b>and <b>rested </b>her head on her <b>desk </b><b>for a </b><b>nap</b><b>. </b>


    The afternoon flew by, and it was time to leave work.


    Sullivan came to find Ruby. “I drove. You can ride with me tonight, and I’ll drop you off after dinner.”


    “Sullivan, I n to invite N to dinner as well. <b>You </b>don’t mind, do you?” Ruby asked.


    Sullivan frowned but soon smiled again. <b>“</b>Not at all. You can both ride with me.”


    Ruby turned to N. “N, what do you think? Should we go with Sullivan?”


    N smiled. “Sure, that would be great. Thanks, Sullivan ”


    “It’s no trouble. It’s my pleasure. Since your experiment is done, let’s head out now,” Sullivan said.


    “Okay,” N and Ruby said.


    As Sullivan turned around, his smile vanished, leaving his expression icy and unsettling.


    N sent a message to Damon, letting him know she would be having dinner with Ruby and wouldn’t be going back with him.


    Damon hadn’t replied yet, probably still in a meeting.


    N put her phone in her bag and got in the car with Sullivan and Ruby.


    Because of the evening rush hour, the roads were a bit congested. By the time they arrived at the restaurant, a it was nearly 7:00 p.m.


    After sitting down and ordering their food, N received a message from Damon. He said he had socialmitments that evening and asked for the restaurant’s address, saying he would have his driver pick her up after dinner.


    N was typing a reply when Ruby tugged at her sleeve.


    “N, isn’t that Mr. Sumner outside? Who’s that woman with him? They seem pretty close,” Rubymented.


    N turned her head. What she saw through the window was a couple walking side by side. Her grip on her phone tightened instinctively.
