Bensville was a very remote village, about a six-hour drive from the city center of Druville. It was practically a stone's throw from the neighboring city.

Even now, there was no high-speed rail service to get there. The only form of public transport was the old, rickety train, which was slower than a car.

What made Liam feel more at ease was that Joanne had a pleasant personality, and she began to talk about Grace's past as soon as she got in the car. He found it all very interesting, and they kept chatting until noon. It wasn't until Joanne said she was tired and wanted to rest that he finally focused on driving.

It was already 4:00 am when they arrived at Bensville. There were no hotels around, so they could only recline their seats and spend the night in the car.

He had been pampered by the Lamberts since he was a child and had never experienced such hardships. After just one night, his body ached all over.

However, he still managed to wake up at 8:00 am and woke Joanne as well. She had the looks of a girl-next-door, fair-skinned and petite.

After they got out of the car, Liam headed up the mountain trail. It was too narrow for a car to get through, so they had to leave the car at the base.

Seeing how fast Liam was walking, Joanne quickly caught up with him. "Liam, why are you walking so fast?"

He didn't stop as the thought of Grace made him even more anxious. "This is the first task Grace gave me, so I must complete it."

He didn't want Grace to think he was useless, so he was determined to find the old alternative medicine practitioner and get the medicine for insomnia even if he had to walk until his legs gave out.
