Chapter 26 That Was Just A Joke

The rest of the Mitchell family shared the same sentiment. The seasoned doctors in the room also agreed. With years of medical expertise behind them, they had exhausted every possible treatment for Vincent's condition without success. The idea that a woman barely in her twenties could surpass their skills and achieve what they couldn't was simply inconceivable.

To be honest, they didn't believe Brenna was that skilled at all.

Lindsay approached Emmett with confidence. "Everyone, those people earlier were family members of Dr. Harper, so naturally, they knew her well. Whether she actually has any medical expertise is still a question that needs answering. These days, very few young women dedicate themselves to serious study. We can't afford to gamble with Mr. Mitchell's health. Fortunately, I've called in a few friends who are experts in the medical field. Once they arrive, they will see Dr. Harper's skills, and we'll have the truth about her credibility,"

She lifted her chin, glancing at Brenna with open disdain. "Dr. Harper-or should I say, Miss Harper-if you're simply putting on an act, 1 suggest you come clean now. Given your age, we might chalk it up to youthful ignorance and let the matter slide. But if the experts expose you as a fraud, things won't end well for you. We "may have to involve the authorities, and the consequences could be severe."

Miss Harper, if I were you, I'd confess now before you anger the Mitchell family. Because if you do, no one will be able to protect you."

Brenna rolled her eyes, clearly unimpressed. "So, none of you trust me, huh?"

She turned to Ethan and casually said, "Is there anyone else in your family who's unwell? Let me assess their

Ethan shot a disapproving glance at the doctors. Their skepticism was nothing more than thinly veiled jealousy. Because they couldn't cure his grandfather, they assumed no one else could, either.

He looked at his father and said, "Dad, I trust Dr. Harper. Why don't we let her examine you? It wouldn't hurt to see if she can help improve your health."
