Chapter 503:
Therefore, when he stumbled upon the same totem at the exit of a hidden passage at Victor’s estate, old terror surged up and swallowed him whole. Every memory that hypnosis had forced down came rushing back, raw and overwhelming. He was shaken to the core as panic, suffocation, and pain left him trembling. He could feel himself unraveling, losing his grip on both his emotions and his mind. Deep down, he understood that this condition was slipping beyond his control. He understood all too well just how destructive his episodes could become. The fear of following in his mother’s footsteps, of hurting the people he loved, drove him to end things with Elliana.
Moments earlier, Elliana had signed the divorce papers. It felt like a piece of his heart had been ripped straight out of his chest. Now, a numb emptiness settled over him, as if every feeling had been drained away, leaving only a hollow shell behind. He couldn’t help but wonder if he was cursed by fate itself. Why did happiness always slip through his fingers the moment he reached for it? Every time he tasted a bit of joy, sorrow would crash in and drag him back into darkness.
Seeing his grandson in such anguish, Ruben said, “Cole, there might be someone out there who could actually cure Psychephrenia p>
That caught Cole’s attention. He looked up sharply. “Who p>
“Milena,” Ruben answered. “I’ve always told you to find Milena. Not just for Barbara’s sake, but because Milena might be able to help with your Psychephrenia as well p>
A faint spark of hope flickered in Cole’s eyes. “Does Milena have any research on Psychephrenia p>
Ruben shook his head. “I can’t say for sure. But something tells me our family is linked to Milena in some way. We have to track Milena down and at least give it a shot p>
Milena’s name echoed in Cole’s mind, and suddenly, a new thought began to take shape.

Cole’s mind wandered back to several pivotal moments that now seemed charged with hidden meaning. When Trinity announced her intention to follow Murray and meet Milena, Elliana had issued a sharp warning against deception—her voice carrying an edge that suggested deeper knowledge. Later, when Trinity returned with triumphant claims that Milena planned to accept her as a protégé, Elliana’s expression had hardened into something unmistakable—a look that screamed the “Milena” Trinity encountered was nothing more than an elaborate fake.
Cole’s mind raced. Could Elliana possess some hidden connection to Milena? Perhaps she knew the legendary healer personally and had crossed paths with her in ways he couldn’t fathom? But he dismissed the notion almost immediately. If Elliana truly knew Milena, she would have made introductions without hesitation, especially knowing how desperately he’d been hunting for any trace of Milena. Logic suggested she knew nothing concrete about Milena at all. She had simply trusted her instincts, allowing intuition to guide her toward the truth—that the “Milena” Trinity had encountered was nothing but smoke and mirrors.
