I can't do it as the book is DRM'ed, and thus forbidden per site's rules.

Unpack it.
Rename the weird .xhtml file to .pdf and if that doesn't open try .png, etc. It can't be really an xhtml file unless it's encrypted.

Copied the original ePub, zipped and extracted the whole content. Then I tried changing the extension of the file to both PDF and PNG and none opened, just a white page in preview and errors when opening with a dedicated PDF app. Doing the same to the copy I imported to Calibre I'm able to read all the other chapters that are in .xhtml form inside the zip, but not the one I'm having decoding issues (even when changing it to PDF).
The book is protected against copy but it lets you highlight portions of the text and those can be exported so I found a workaround to what I wanted to do I guess (?).
