"Mm, I know," Damon replied.
While they were talking, the elevator reached Nyla's floor.
"I'm heading to the lab," Nyla said.
"Okay, messagewhen you're almost done," Damon reminded her.

By the tshe arrived at the lab, Ruby had already set up the experiment.
Nyla glanced at her notebook, jotting down a few potential issues that could complicate the experiment, and then began the process again with Ruby.
The two of them were so focused that several hours passed before they realized it was close to midnight. Fortunately, the experiment was successful this time, and the data cout as expected, leaving them both relieved. If the experiment had failed, they would probably have had to stay up all night in the lab.
After finishing, Nyla and Ruby tidied up the lab and left. On their way to the elevator, Nyla sent Damon a message to let him know they were done.
Damon replied quickly.
Damon: [Got it. I'll wait for you on the first floor.] Nyla: [Okay.] She put her phone away and glanced at Ruby, who was also typing a reply.
Not wanting to invade Ruby's privacy, Nyla quickly turned her gaže away, but her sharp eyesight caught the nof the person Rubaught messaging-Sullivan.
was Nyla bit her lip but didn't remind Ruby that Sullivan was no saint. After all, Ruby was an adult and could distinguish right from wrong.
Nyla had already warned her a few times as Ruby's senior, and that was enough. Saying too much would be interfering in Ruby's personal life.
Ruby was indeed replying to Sullivan's text, but her responses et were brief, almost cold. It seemed Sullivan hadn't noticed, as he continued messaging her.
His last message asked why she wasn't asleep yet. She couldn't be bothered to reply, so she simply closed the chat.

If it weren't for my dad needing my signature for the surgery paperwork, I wouldn't have rushed out and caused problems with the experiment."
A flicker of something crossed Ruby's gaze. If she had been more had been more competent, the experiment wouldn't have fallen apart as soon as Nyla left. She changed the topic. "Nyla, are you hungry? Want to grab a bite?" Nyla shook her head. "No, I'm a bit tired. Go ahead, I'll cover it." "If you're not going, then I won't either. What's the point of eating alone?" Ruby replied.
The two of them entered the elevator, which quickly descended to the first floor.
As soon as they stepped out, Nyla spotted Damon's tall figure nearby. She walked up quickly, surprised. "Have you been waiting long?" "No, I just got here," Damon answered.
Nyla turned to Ruby. "Ruby, we'll take you home. It's too late andit Snot safe to walk alone at night."
