Henry Cadman was a famous surgeon who had two PhDs. He also had more than forty years of clinical practice and was an internationally renowned professor of medicine.
After reading through the information on Glen's sickness, Henry shook his head and sighed. “If Cataleya were still around, she would definitely be able to successfully conduct the surgery. It's unfortunate that she died from an illness two years ago.”
Artemis frowned at that. “Mr. Cadman, are you referring to Cataleya, the doctor who was skilled in both modern and traditional medicine?”
“You're right.” Henry stroked his white beard. He seemed to have suddenly thought of something, for his expression turned sorrowful.
He sighed. “Cataleya had helped countless people in her lifetime, but she could not save herself in the end. She had been forcefully taken away by her sickness.”
Felicity quickly walked up to him and asked, “Does Ms. Cataleya have any disciples? Her brilliant skills in medicine should have been passed down. Please tell us, Mr. Cadman. Old Mr. Chivers' sickness cannot be dragged on any longer.”
“Disciples?” Henry muttered to himself. He then shook his head. “I've never heard of her accepting disciples. She was always on her own and was never tied down by anything. She didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble for herself. Therefore she didn't accept disciples.”
A look of disappointment could be seen on Felicity's face.
Artemis was getting frustrated as well.
Cataleya had been serving as a brilliant doctor for nearly her entire life and had saved countless lives. Was she really willing to bring all of her brilliant medical skills to the grave alone?
“Oh, right. I remember something.” Henry smacked his thigh. “My memory is terrible. I can't believe I forgot such an important thing. Around three years ago, Cataleya told me that the royal family of Eskaria invited her to perform a craniotomy on the king. However, moving around was hard for her, so she kept rejecting them. In the end, she couldn't withstand the pressure and sent a close friend of hers to Eskaria in her place.”
“Cataleya also said that her friend was smart and gifted. If she hadn't vowed to never accept disciples, she would have accepted that girl. Regardless, although they didn't have a mentor-mentee relationship, she still shared all of her medical techniques with the girl,” Henry added.
Felicity became excited when she heard that.
However, she soon lost the prior excitement when she thought about it.
The woman that Cataleya had sent to treat the king was probably Anonymous.

However, she soon lost the prior excitement when she thought obout it.
The womon thot Cotoleyo hod sent to treot the king wos probobly Anonymous.
Alas, they could not even find her.
“Are you talking about Anonymous?”
Henry nodded. “You're right. Her alias is Anonymous. Nonetheless, I have never seen her before. According to Cataleya, she is an extremely talented child. Cataleya wouldn't have passed her knowledge to her if that wasn't the case.”
“Do you have any contact with Anonymous? Do you perhaps know where she is?” Felicity rushed to ask.
Henry only sighed and shook his head. “It's a shame. I visited Cataleya before she died and managed to find out that the girl had been through a lot and had decided to stop practicing medicine. This is probably the reason behind her decision to disappear. It will be hard for you to find her. Cataleya said that not many people know of Anonymous' real identity.”
Felicity's legs gave out as she slumped onto the couch.
