Chapter 240
Mikel thumbed through a book aggressively.
“Mr. Kennedy, Cameron wouldn’t deceive me. Please, let him try,” Tara implored as she took a deep breath to calm herself slightly.
At this moment, she found herself trusting Cameron more than Mikel.
Mikel’s face darkened noticeably at her words. He couldn’t fathom what spell this young man had cast on Tara to earn her trust. It was especially when he, as the hospital’s senior director, was on the verge of winning over his dream woman. He was not about to let Cameron ruin his plans.
He challenged Cameron, saying, “You claim to be a doctor, right? Then show me your medical license.
“I don’t have one,” Cameron responded calmly.
Mikel scoffed. “You don’t have a license? And yet you dare impersonate a doctor!”
He turned to Tara with a smug look. “Dr. Smith, now you see who’s deceiving you, don’t you?”
Tara frowned slightly. She was growing impatient. Her grandfather was at stake, and allowing Cameron to assess the situation posed no harm. To her, another pair of hands meant more hope.
But before Tara could speak, Cameron calmly interjected, “Mr. Kennedy, since the illness isn’t affecting you or your relatives, you don’t feel any urgency, do you?”
“What are you talking about!” Mikel’s face flushed with anger.
Tara’s eyes flickered. Cameron’s words resonated with her thoughts.

Cameron continued, “I just wonder why we’re fussing over certificates when lives are at stake. Many masters of traditional medicine don’t have a medical license, yet they’ve resolved many complex cases. Are you saying they’re unqualified to practice medicine?”
He continued, “Mr. Kennedy, your recent speech has revealed some concerning signs. Your tongue has a thick, white coating, and your eyes appear bloodshot. These are clear indicators of kidney deficiency and liver fire.
“It seems you’ve been having trouble sleeping. You must be haunted by restless dreams. Do you often
your mind occupied with dirty thoughts? Oh, and you have hemorrhoids…”

The room fell silent after Cameron’s remarks.
Mikel’s face was filled with anger as Cameron had accurately pointed out his condition.
Tara asked curiously, “Cameron, how do you know he has hemorrhoids?”
It was no secret to her that Mikel had hemorrhoids.
Cameron simply replied, “Traditional medicine emphasizes inspection, listening, inquiry, and pulse-

taking. I deduced these from his appearance.”

He felt that explaining the complexities of traditional medicine would be complicated. It might seem straightforward, but mastering its essence required extensive practice, experience, and innate talent.
“You’re really something,” Tara said as she shifted her gaze over Cameron.
Mikel tried to brush it off. “This kid just got lucky. My hemorrhoids aren’t a secret. Maybe he did some digging beforehand.”
He lowered his voice as he was evidently embarrassed by the topic.
“So, what about the kidney deficiency and liver fire he mentioned? Are those false?” Tara asked.
She knitted her brows together as she grew increasingly skeptical of Mikel’s character and his earlier
statements.
