The experiment finally ended around 7:00 p.m.

After cleaning up the equipment and workspace, Nyla was preparing to leave when Sullivan approached her with a bag of food.

In the past, when they worked late on experiments, he would bring them food. She hadn’t expected him to continue even after the teams were split up.
