Chapter 47

"Didn't you just say there's nothing wrong?" After hearing Keith's condition, Joaquin gave a displeased look.

"When I got in the car, there indeed wasn't any problem. I guess when we moved him, we aggravated his injury. I was taken aback by the extent of his internal injury. His heart and lungs have ruptured, and the tools I have on hand are insufficient to support the operation. It's too late for him to be admitted to a major hospital. Nobody in Hovington can save a patient that even I can't handle."

Ben approached him from behind with a solemn face.

Joaquin pursed his lips and fixed his gaze on Keith without a word. He's the only one who might know the truth, but I haven't even gotten the chance to question him!

Distraught, Joaquin suddenly thought of a person who might save the situation.

Katherine!

The young man was in the same condition as Keith last time, but she saved his life with a silver needle.

Perhaps she can save Keith this time as well.

"Please call Katherine and ask her to come over right away." Joaquin had a thought and turned to face Ben with the instruction.

Stunned for a moment, Ben pointed to himself and asked, "Me?"

I don't even know her! Who am I to call her, Mr. Fiancé?

"Yes, you! Just tell her that you wanted to resuscitate him, but you failed. She needs to be here now, otherwise, she can bid her brother goodbye." Joaquin nodded firmly.

Feeling a chill behind his back, Ben could only do as he was told seeing that Joaquin had already made his decision.

As such, Ben phoned her after retrieving Joaquin's phone.
