Chapter 840:
Arthur’s voice carried wonder as he chimed in, “Your mother certainly commanded both healing and poison with equal mastery. I never knew she possessed such a remarkable tome as the ‘Medical Codex.’” He paused, his thoughts turning contemplative. “I’ve heard whispers that Milena is a master of both healing and poisons. I wonder where she acquired such knowledge, and how her abilities compare to your mother’s gifts p>
Elliana’s smile carried the warmth of long-held secrets finally ready for revelation. The moment had arrived to unveil her hidden identity as Milena—otherwise, continuing their discussion of the “Medical Codex” would prove impossible. She drew a breath and confessed, “Dad, Milton, I am Milena. Every healing technique and poison mastery I possess flows from the wisdom contained within the ‘Medical Codex p>
Elliana’s words seemed to linger in the air, their weight pulling Arthur and Milton into stunned silence. Both turned toward her, their expressions a blend of disbelief and confusion.
Milena—the world-famous healer whose skill drew the attention of countless tycoons—was a figure shrouded in both prestige and mystery. Securing an appointment with her was nearly impossible. Rumor had it that she had recently surfaced in Ublento, where she exposed and publicly shamed an imposter daring to masquerade as her, only to vanish once more without leaving a trail.
At that time, Arthur and Milton had wanted to travel to Ublento to meet this legendary healer. But pressing obligations had kept them bound, and the opportunity slipped away, leaving them with a quiet, lingering regret.
Those fortunate enough to have seen Milena spoke of a striking, elegant young woman with an effortless charm that left a lasting impression. And yet now, the revelation that this celebrated healer was, in fact, Elliana left Arthur and Milton utterly puzzled.
Sensing the reason behind their bewilderment, Elliana’s lips curved into a gentle smile as she explained candidly, “The last time I appeared as Milena was solely to expose that imposter. I had no wish to reveal who I truly was, so I used my makeup skills to disguise myself as a man p>

Arthur and Milton exchanged a glance before nodding, the pieces finally falling into place. Their surprise gave way to admiration—Elliana was not only Rosa but also Milena, two identities celebrated across the globe. Such accomplishments alone would have been enough to fill any family with pride.
Arthur’s gaze lingered on Elliana, his striking eyes warm with joy. If she were still a little girl, he would have scooped her into his arms and lifted her high in sheer celebration. Yet, beneath the pride lay a faint ache—the regret of having missed so many irreplaceable moments in her life. But now was not the time to dwell on what had been lost. The urgency of finding his wife eclipsed all else. Steering the conversation back to the matter at hand, Arthur said, “Elliana, tell us more about the ‘Medical Codex p>
Elliana’s voice remained steady as she spoke. “When Mom fled to Ublento years ago because she was being hunted, fearing she could not protect the ‘Medical Codex,’ she donated it to Ublento Medical University, hoping the move would draw the assassins’ attention away from her p>
Milton leaned forward slightly, his voice calm but laced with curiosity. “So, the Medical Codex is at Ublento Medical University now p>
Elliana gave a gentle nod. “Yes. Mom officially donated it to the university, but before doing so, she made a discreet copy—an electronic scan stored on a small data chip. Fifteen years ago, when she left Ublento, she placed that chip in my care p>
Arthur and Milton exchanged a brief look, the scattered fragments of the “Medical Codex” history finally aligning into a clearer picture.
