Chapter 405 Exhausted


    When he came out of theboratory, Alfie was already at the door.


    "Miss Harold, you''ve worked hard, you must be exhausted, do you want to have a meal here? We''ve


    known each other for a while, but we haven''t had the chance to sit down and have a good meal. Why


    don''t we choose a day, or maybe today?"


    He was very attentive and looked at Ruby with a gleaming gaze, as if he was looking at God.


    Ruby had not rested properly for several days in a row, and now her face looked white.


    "No need," she refused in a faint voice, "I have things to do, let’s take a rain check."


    Alfie, who was the best at reading people''s faces, didn''t force her, nodding his head repeatedly.


    "Yes, yes, there will be plenty of opportunitiester, so I''ll send a special car to take you back, where do


    you live now?"


    Ruby nced at her mobile phone, Levi had already arrived, and once again refused with a cold


    expression, "No need, someone else is picking me up."


    As she spoke, she loaded the reagents, carries her bag and left.


    Alfie had no choice but to give up, and walked her all the way to the entrance of the institute, watching


    Levi''s car leave.


    In the car, Levi swept his eyes at the figure that had turned into a small ck dot in the rear view mirror


    and teased her, "Alfie is really attentive to you."


    Ruby leaned back in her chair with her eyes closed, unconcerned: "He''s desperate to get a share of the


    research from me, so it''s only reasonable that he is attentive."


    Seeing that she was tired to the core, Levi was distressed and changed the subject.


    "If you''re tired, take a nap, we''ll be home in a few minutes." His tone was gentle.


    Ruby still had her eyes closed and shook her head slightly, "No, I''ll rest my eyes for a while, I haven''t


    closed them for the past few days, my eyes are getting blurry. I will go back and finish injecting the


    antidote for Raphael before sleeping."


    "Are you sure the reagent is okay? Raphael didn’t look well these days as if his soul has gone."


    Hearing his query, Ruby opened her eyes and looked at him sideways, "What? Don''t believe me?"


    Leviughed: "No, it''s just that this situation with Raphael is really a bitplicated, I''ve been feeling


    rmed watching it these days."


    A cold smile shed across Ruby''s clear eyes, "Thanks to Wyon, putting his own son in this state, he


    really has no conscience."


    As she said this, she seemed to think of something and was silent for a moment, and when she spoke


    again her tone was more indifferent.


    "Wyon is not an exception, isn''t my father the same? I don''t know how he''s getting on now."


    She suddenly mentions Spencer, her face without joy or anger, as inly as if she were talking about


    an insignificant stranger.


    Levi stopped the car at a red light and tilted his head to touch her slightly pale face.


    "Don''t think about it, the past is in the past, Spencer got what he deserved, and Wyon won''t be any


    better, what you need now is a good rest. Didn''t you say to rest your eyes? There''s still a while to go


    before we get home, have some rest, I''ll let you know when we arrive."


    "Okay." Ruby was really tired, she nodded, rested against the car window ss, closing her eyes.


    Twenty minutester, the car pulled up smoothly at Jin Yuan.


    Unable to sit still, Layton waited at the door early in the morning, and when he saw the car stop, he


    took the lead in opening the passenger door.


    "Ruby, how is it going? Is the antidote definitely developed?"


    Ruby unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car, sweeping him a nce: "If not, why Ie back?"


    She said as she walked towards the vi, "Where''s Raphael, what''s the situation now?"


    Layton followed her closely, his steps wide, obviously anxious.


    "It''s not good, it feels like his breath is getting weaker and weaker now, he''s spitting out more and more


    of the medicine he''s feeding, before he was spitting out half of it, now he can spit out two thirds of it, I


    can only increase the amount of medicine."


    At the sound of his words, Ruby was not surprised.


    "This is normal, he still has poison in his body that is still attacking his internal organs, but as long as


    he has a breath left, he can be saved."


    She was so sure of herself, when Layton saw this, he felt relieved.


    As they spoke, they had already walked into the room where Raphael was, followed closely by Levi.


    On the bed, Raphael''s physique was indeed worse than when Ruby left, his face was so white that you


    could almost see the blood beneath his skin, his lips were dry as if they had no moisture left, his eyes


    were deeply sunken, and the bases of his eyes were blue and ck, it was almost as if a demon had


    sucked all the essence out of them.


    Ruby''s brow furrowed and without saying a word, she immediately checked his pulse.


    Noticing that his breath was too weak to use the antidote directly, she pondered for a moment and took


    out her silver needle to apply the needle.


    By the time the set of needle waspleted, she looked as if she had been fished out of the water and


    was covered in sweat.


    Looking felt heartbroken, hurriedly took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her bare forehead.


    Ruby checked his pulse again and let out a long breath before taking out the antidote and


    administering it to him.


    "All right, follow this recipe and continue to drink for another three days, and the remaining poison in his


    body will be cleared."


    She handed over the prescription she had drawn up in theboratory to Layton, then stood up.


    Perhaps too exhausted, she tried to say something else, but her eyes went steeply ck and she lost


    consciousness.


    "Ruby!" Levi was startled and hurriedly wrapped his arms around her limp waist.


    Looking at Ruby''s tightly closed eyes and pale face, his eyebrows furrowed as he picked her up in his


    arms and walked quickly to the master bedroom next door.


    Layton was also startled and rushed to follow, but was stopped by Levi: "She’s just tired, it''s nothing


    serious. Go ahead and send someone to get the medicine, don''t miss the time."


    Layton nced at Ruby who was unconscious in the arms of Levi, pursed his lips and had to do as he


    was told.


    In the master bedroom, Levi carefully ced Ruby on the bed, then went to the bathroom to get a


    basin of hot water and a towel, ready to wipe Ruby''s face and hands.


    However, Ruby''s eyebrows were deeply wrinkled, seemingly ufortable.


    It was only then that Levi remembered that she was now covered in sweat and was definitely not


    sleeping soundly.


    After a moment''s hesitation, his thin lips pursed straight and he sighed helplessly, so he carried her into

    the bathroom and cleaned her briefly.


    It was a difficult process, and he tried to put aside those distractions before he got her out of the bath


    wrapped in a towel.


    When Ruby finallyy quietly asleep on the bed, her eyebrows unfurled. Levi was relieved, his body


    already covered in sweat, and he turned back to the bathroom to take a shower by himself.
