Ignoring Damon's wails, Joy Bennett ran back to Barbara's side and picked her up, asking, "Barbara, are you alright?"
How could she be alright?
Besides a bruised and swollen nose, and blood at the corner of her mouth, Barbara had two gashes on her face, obvious cuts. Moreover, her chest was stained red with blood.
Stunned, Joy Bennett hastily tore at Barbara's clothes to look, seeing a deep and narrow wound at her chest, with blood gushing out.
It was clear the wound came from a dagger.
Joy Bennett had come in a hurry and hadn't brought any medication to stop the bleeding. She said, "Barbara, hold on, I'll take you to the hospital right away."
"Who are you?"
"I am Yao... I am someone from your Queen."
"The Queen?"
"Yes. Don't speak, I'll take you to the hospital."
"No need. I'm a doctor, this stab is right in the center of my artery, I can't survive."
