Chapter 43 Chapter 43 "Mr. Sumner!" Genevieve stared in panic at Damon's back. If anything happened to him in the lab, her position as the head of the R&D department would be in jeopardy.
Nyla quickly backed away, raising her hand to shield her face. Sof the liquid sprayed directly onto her hands, causing quick burns that left black scars, the pain almost making her cry out.
Suddenly, a suit jacket covered her head, and her wrist was firmly grasped. Through the gap in the clothing, she saw the distinct knuckles of the hand holding hers, dry and warm against her skin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn a daze, before Nyla could react, the person had already pulled her to the nearby sink, turning on the faucet and rinsing the areas of her hands burned by the concentrated sulfuric acid- It wasn't until the water flowed over the back of her hands that she snapped back to reality, quickly pulling the suit jacket off her head and withdrawing her hands from Damon's grasp.
"Mr. Sumner... I can handle this myself..." She lowered her gaze, ignoring the strange emotions that had just surged within her. Damon was Clark's uncle, so his help earlier was likely due to his relationship with Clark.
After Nyla rinsed her hands for a while, the burning sensation finally subsided. She turned off the water and glanced around the messy lab, subconsciously biting her lip.
"Mr. Sumner, let's go out first." The two walked out of the lab, and Nyla was about to return the jacket to Damon when she met his icy gaze. She tightened her grip on the jacket, feeling that Damon was furious-and the object of his anger.. was her...
She understood it. No investor would be pleased to see their investment project encounter such difficulties. Genevieve hurried over, relieved that Damon was unharmed, then turned to Nyla with a frown. “Nyla, what exactly happened? How did the explosion happen suddenly?" Nyla was about to speak when Damon interrupted in a deep voice. "Let's go to the hospital first." Genevieve widened her eyes in panic. She quickly looked at Damon. "Mr. Sumner, are you injured?!" "Not me, her." "I'm fine. I can go to the hospital later. Genevieve, I added the dilute sulfuric acid required for today's experiment earlier, When I added it, I felt something was wrong. Someone must have switched it with.
concentrated sulfuric acid." Genevieve's expression immediately turned serious. If someone had deliberately tampered with it, that person was beyond reprehensible.
The failure of this experiment today wouldn't only offend Damon, but Nyla would also face consequences for her work mistake, possibly even losing her job.
Lucia was both angry and resentful as she took in Genevieve's changing expression, evident that she 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 43 believed Nyla's words. Lucia remembered clearly that Genevieve not only didn't believe her when she claimed that Nyla was the one behind the anonymous report, but Genevieve also rebuked her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy was Genevieve not doubting Nyla's truthfulness this time?
Lucia looked at Nyla. "Nyla, we haven't figured out what happened yet. Both concentrated and dilute sulfuric acids are stored in the storage room. It's possible you misread the labels when you fetched them. How can you be so sure someone switched them?"
Genevieve glanced at Lucia coldly before saying in a stern tone, "M Sumner will investigate this matter thoroughly and provide you with an explanation." Damon's eyes narrowed. "I'll be waiting."
Genevieve nodded and looked at Nyla, her tone not particularly friendly. "Go to the hospitalto treat we have t your injuries first. You don't have to cto work for the next few days.
We'll wait for the investigation results." If Nyla had indeed mistakenly taken the wrong reagent, she might not be allowed to independently conduct drug research anymore.
"Okay, understood." Nyla turned to leave, but Damon suddenly spoke up. “I'll take you there." Chapter 44
