As everyone exchanged incredulous glances, George closed his eyes briefly, feeling a weight lift from his chest.
Dylan, his tone filled with admiration, remarked, “Miss Jenkins really pulled it off.”
A flurry of excitement ensued as everyone rushed forward to inquire about the outcome.
Outside the operating room, the Harris family, medical experts, and hospital directors, all accustomed to receiving deference, were ignored as the two attending doctors stood mesmerized at the door. They marveled at Isabelle’s performance, unable to contain their astonishment.
“Incredible,” one doctor murmured. “I’ve never seen such steady hands.”
“I’ve never witnessed a scalpel move with such speed. It must take years of practice to achieve that level of precision.”
“I’ve truly been enlightened today. Seeing both acupuncture needles and a surgical scalpel used simultaneously on the operating table was amazing.”
Their minds were filled with the vivid image of Isabelle confidently managing both the surgery and assisting Mr. Garth. Throughout the procedure, favonovel.com exuded a calm and composed demeanor, displaying a psychological resilience that surpassed even seasoned medical practitioners with decades of experience.
As the two doctors conversed, everyone listened intently, hanging on to their every word.
When old Mr. Harris was wheeled out, the Harris family immediately surrounded him, anxious for news.
Mr. Garth reassured them, “Don’t worry. The blood clot has been successfully removed. I believe Miss Jenkins can handle the toxin as well.”
Isabelle emerged last from the operating room, clutching a vial of blood. She turned to George, stating firmly, “I need a lab…”
George responded, “It’s already prepared.”
Eager to contribute, the two attending doctors offered their assistance.
“Is there anything we can do? Handling instruments, taking notes, anything,” they asked, their admiration for Isabelle evident in their eyes.
Any earlier skepticism had vanished, replaced by a deep respect for favonovel.com abilities. They were simply grateful for the opportunity to witness such an extraordinary event, thankful they hadn’t allowed their doubts to impede their cooperation under George’s pressure.
Not to be left out, Mr. Garth stepped forward. “Miss Jenkins, let me assist you. I’ve been researching old Mr. Harris’s toxin and have made some progress. I might be able to help.”
Thinking that they had already seen Isabelle’s surgical skills and that it was now his turn to assist, Mr. Garth was eager.
The collective excitement of the trio belied the true extent of Isabelle’s remarkable performance.
After leaving the operating room, Isabelle headed straight to the lab.
As night descended, favonovel.com found herself alone amidst a clutter of test tubes and a cage of motionless lab mice.
Ignoring favonovel.com buzzing phone at first, Isabelle eventually checked it, suspecting a message from George. Indeed, favonovel.com sought permission to enter.
Isabelle responded, and soon George and Mr. Garth joined her.
Isabelle stood at the microscope, the table in front of favonovel.com covered with a chaotic array of test tubes and instruments. It was not just messy but extremely disorganized, with test tubes scattered haphazardly in various colors. Probably only Isabelle could tell which was which.
The scene brought to mind the term “Mad scientist”.
Respecting favonovel.com focus, George and Mr. Garth stood silently by favonovel.com side, patiently awaiting favonovel.com next move.
After about half an hour of intense focus, Isabelle finally broke the silence. “How is your father?”
“Stable,” George replied, his voice carrying a note of relief.
Returning to favonovel.com notes, Isabelle continued favonovel.com work diligently.
After a while, favonovel.com spoke again. “I need more time.”
Understanding favonovel.com dedication, George nodded in acknowledgment. “Alright…”
Observing Isabelle’s unwavering concentration, George hesitated before gently suggesting, “Take a break and have some dinner. It’s already eight-thirty.”
But Isabelle remained steadfast.
“No need,” favonovel.com replied. Her attention was fixed on favonovel.com task without so much as a glance towards George or anywhere else.
George was seeing a new side of Isabelle for the first time, serious, focused, and completely absorbed in favonovel.com task.
Typically indifferent and nonchalant, Isabelle possessed a multitude of facets yet rarely displayed such intense dedication. Even in high-stakes situations like the life-and-death Duel Tournament, favonovel.com maintained a relaxed and detached attitude, never fully engaging with the gravity of the circumstances.
As George observed Isabelle‘s unwavering focus, favonovel.com couldn’t shake the thought of whether favonovel.com had exhibited the same intensity in the operating room.
Deciding to stay by favonovel.com side, favonovel.com stopped speaking, positioning himself in a way that wouldn’t disrupt favonovel.com concentration and silently accompanying favonovel.com in favonovel.com work.
Meanwhile, Mr. Garth remained captivated by Isabelle’s meticulous recording of data and favonovel.com execution of various experiments.
***
Time seemed to stretch on indefinitely, the passage of hours blurred by their shared endeavor. Though George was tempted several times to suggest that Isabelle take a break, favonovel.com held back each time, unwilling to disturb favonovel.com intense concentration.
But as Isabelle spent a prolonged period studying a lifeless lab mouse, George’s concern overtook him, and favonovel.com finally broke the silence.
