Chapter 271 Who Saved Me?

Liam let out a cold chuckle and said plainly, "I know very well what's going on."

Gabriel thought his plan had worked when he heard Liam. "Liam, since you know what's up, youbetter call for help and nab this con artist. He dared to deceive you, Liam. If you don't arrest him, itwon't calm the public rage! Not catching him would tarnish your dignity, Liam. He should be lockedup! No, jail's too kind for him; you should at least have him shot!"

Gabriel's words made Liam frown with puzzlement. He looked at him, questioning, "Gabriel, whatdid this guy do to you? Why do you want him dead?"

"I didn't even know the dude before all this. There's no beef between us. But, Liam, he fooled you,so he's gotta go. You have to have him shot!"

Abigail couldn't stand to listen anymore. She jumped in with a frosty voice, "If lying to my dad werea shooting offense, Gabriel, you would have faced a firing squad hundreds of times over!"

"Abigail, what's that supposed to mean?" asked Gabriel.

"What does it mean? Don't you know, Gabriel? I honestly didn't realize you were such a shamelesscharacter before. It's you who's been fooling my dad, yet here you are, accusing this doctor ofdeception! Gabriel, your medical skills may be lacking, but you surely excel in turning black intowhite!"

Abigail's scolding left Gabriel red-faced and speechless. "Abigail, you... you've got it all wrong!"

Seeing that he couldn't fool her, Gabriel quickly turned to Liam. This daughter was too smart, but hecould still try to trick her dad! After all, Liam had been unconscious and clueless about what reallyhappened.

"Liam, I'm the one who saved your life, not this charlatan. If you don't believe me, you can askthem."

To prove his point, Gabriel quickly asked the other doctors for backup. "Am I telling the truth? Did Isave Liam or did this con artist?"

Those doctors weren't fools, and they knew that truth and facts didn't matter at that moment—it wasall about choosing sides. So, they chimed in one after another.

"It was Gabriel who saved Liam, not this fraud. He nearly killed Liam."

"Yes, that's right! It was Gabriel who saved him! He's the best doctor in our county hospital."

"This guy's just a scam artist. He doesn't even have a college degree; how could he possibly saveLiam?"

...

Listening to these doctors' flattery and false praise made Liam's skin crawl. He looked at the crowdand asked, "The things you just said, did you really mean them? Are you guys speaking the truth?"

His question silenced the doctors instantly; some even hung their heads in shame.

Facing this situation, Liam brought out his authoritative side as a legislator and sternly questionedthe doctors, "I want you all to listen and tell me the truth. Who really saved me? Was it Gabriel orwas it this young miracle doctor? I want nothing but honest answers!"
