Chapter 1166

"Mr.Damaris, why don't we take Dr.Jarvis to the hospital?"

After finding the acupuncture tools, Colby was still trying to stall time.He held onto the medical kit, refusing to pass it to Jack.

Jack got anxious and reached for the medical kit, but Colby dodged his hand.

Colby urged Jack earnestly, "Dr.Jarvis is ina precarious condition.You said it yourself that you could only try.With her current condition, I don't think you have the option to fail."

With that, he faked concern and added, "Moreover, you were right next to the flask, too.I'm sure you've inhaled some of the poisonous gas as well.I doubt you don't feel any discomfort."

Jack frowned deeply at Colby's comment.

lam indeed feeling slightly dizzy, but I don't think that'll affect my treatment of Roxanne.

In the meantime, Colby continued prattling on, "Even if you're fine, you can't guarantee you'll be able to treat Dr.Jarvis successfully, not to mention now that you're not feeling well.I've already contacted the hospital, and they're ready for us any time."

Jack looked at the unconscious Roxanne and turned to regard Colby with a grave expression.

"What are you playing at, Dr.Galloway?"

Colby's heart skipped a beat when he heard Jack's question.

Steeling himself, he countered, "I don't understand what you mean, Mr.Damaris.I'm just worried for Dr.Jarvis."

"Then give me the medical kit!" Jack hissed.

A troubled expression marred Colby's countenance.

"Mr.Damaris, I mean it.With Dr.Jarvis’ current condition, it's best to take her to the hospital—"

"Do you think I'm not as good as those doctors in the hospital?" Jack questioned coldly.

Colby fell silent at his sharp remark.

A few seconds later, he begrudgingly handed over the medical kit.

"I'll be standing here, watching you.I want to help in case anything happens."
