Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex Novel

Chapter 915 Realizing further questioning was futile, Paul left. After his departure, Ruby resumed packing her belongings. Just as she finished folding her clothes, the doorbell rang. She opened the door to find Leon standing there. Surprise flickered in her eyes before her expression turned indifferent. "If you've come to convince me to stay, don't bother. I'm not going back," she said. "I'm not here to convince you," Leon replied. "I just want to know why you're resigning. Back in Capitarnia, you promised to work hard and help Nyla complete this project." Ruby frowned.

"There's no particular reason. I just think pursuing further studies is more important than this project." "Further studies?" Leon looked at her in disbelief. "You told me before you had no money and needed to work to support yourself." Ruby leaned against the doorframe, her hand tightening slightly. Her tone grew frosty as she retorted, "That's my business. It has nothing to do with you." Her dismissive attitude angered Leon. Before coming, he had thought Ruby might be facing some hardship and that he could offer help.

Seeing her now, already planning to study abroad, he realized he had been naïve. "Ruby, I came here as a concerned coworker. Since you clearly don't need my concern, I'll say no more. Good luck with your future," he said. Without waiting for her reply, Leon turned and left. Meanwhile, Nyla was having dinner when she received a call from Leon. "Nyla, I just visited Ruby. She said she's resigning to pursue further studies. Honestly, I have no idea where she's getting the money from," he said. It wasn't that Leon looked down on Ruby.

He knew about her financial strugetes, Back when they worked to the same lab, she could barely afford meals, often surviving on a single slice of bread and water. in It wasn't until she started earning money from projects that she could afford meals in the cafeteria. Even so, pursuing higher education abroad seemed financially out of reach. Nyla instinctively felt that Ruby's departure was related to Sullivan. If Sullivan had given Ruby the money, she could easily resign to study abroad The question was whether the money Sullivan gave Ruby was his savings or the funds he had embezzled.

'FindNovel.net "It's her business. Let her be. She's already resigned, so there's not much chance we'll meet again, We' worked together after all. If the timing aligns, we'll buy her a meal as a farewell," Nyla replied. After the call ended, she placed the phone on the table and resumed eating. "Is everything alright?" Damon asked, noticing her distraction after the call. Nyla had conflicted feelings. She suspected that Sullivan might have given Ruby a portion of the embezzled funds. Yet, after watching Ruby's growth over the years, she still hoped for her success.

Thus, she hesitated to discuss it with Damon. Damon's gaze hardened as she remained silent. "Why are you staring at me?" he asked. "I'm not sure if I should talk about it," Nyla replied. "If you're unsure, you don't have to say anything right now," Damon reassured her. "Wait until you're ready. You don't want to regret saying something prematurely."
