Chapter 167

Jenny's face turned pale with fear. "It's real, I swear! Look at the book! It's the real deal. I learned all my medical skills from it," she pleaded, desperate to make Liam believe her. Her voice trembled as she spoke, sensing the danger that lurked behind his disbelief.

In her mind, she cursed herself for challenging Liam's medical skills. Just when it seemed like they could get rid of Liam, she pulled him back into their lives. She silently berated herself.

Liam waved the book in the air. "Your brother just cured facial neuritis with steam, and that treatment isn't even in the book. How do you explain that?" he demanded.

Jenny's heart pounded as she realized that one wrong word could plunge her and Cosmo into grave danger.

Jenny quickly made up an explanation. "Cosmo spent a lot of his time with my grandfather. Maybe he learned it from him. Please, you have to believe me. The book I gave you is the real deal.

"I swear, if I'm lying to you I will never find peace. Let lightning strike me down, or let a car hit me the next time I step outside."

She staked her very life to gain Liam's trust.

Liam's expression shifted into a sinister smirk. "You speak boldly, so I'll believe you. I can see you're telling the truth. I'm a kind person who values and respects women. But your brother's skills... they're extraordinary. "He can't waste them here. He needs to be in a place where his unique abilities can be fully utilized."

Upon hearing the first part of Liam's words, Jenny's expression relaxed a little. But as he continued, a chill ran down her spine.

She asked as her voice trembled, "You... you want him to leave this place, and bring him to your country?"
