A gift... Casey paused, considering, and then a sudden pain gripped her head.

Seeing Casey's distress, Jimena quickly became worried. «Madam, are you okay? Please sit down."

Jimena gently helped Casey sit up on the bed, watching her closely, connecting the dots. «It was the day I mentioned that someone was getting married. That's when I saw him at the table outside.

At Jimena's revelation, Casey pinched the palm of her hand tightly, trying to control her chaotic thoughts. He asked: "Jimena, did you mention last time which family was getting married, marrying a young woman from Ambrosía?"

Jimena responded: "Madam, it was the Clifford family, from the north of the city."

Noticing Casey's confusion, Jimena elaborated: "The Clifford family is well known locally, as prominent as the Maxwell family. Everyone knows Davey, and his family is large and influential.

Casey opened her eyes slightly. Did the Clifford family know Davey? Could Davey know something too?

Suddenly, Jimena added: “Ah, yes, that gift must have come from the Clifford family. Who else could afford such an extravagant gift?

Casey continued asking, "You said the bride was very pretty, right?" Do you remember what it was like? Do you think…?

Casey paused, her voice filled with hope. "Does he look like me?"

Jimena looked at Casey with eyes full of sympathy and shook her head.

«Madam, I myself did not see the bride. I wasn't invited to the Cliffords' wedding. "It was my friends who worked there who told me I was very pretty."

Casey was slightly disappointed, although she was convinced it was probably Raegan. After all, she was the only person in Aurora who knew this story. Curiously, it was the same story that Casey had edited when telling her daughter.

Casey had Jimena acquire the Angelica Sinensis, after which a young woman from Ambrosia was married in Aurora and gave a gift related to the story of the swallow. Even if this girlfriend was not her daughter, it had to be someone related to her. Or maybe it was Erick.

It had to be Erick. Erick must have found the missing Raegan and she had told him the story.

The more Casey thought about it, the more convinced she felt, her heart swelling with hope. He turned to Jimena and whispered, "Jimena, can you help me?"

Jimena looked at Casey, perplexed, unsure of what she was asking.

«Can you help me? Casey repeated.

Casey handed her a piece of raw embroidery, saying, "Could you give this to the bride for me?"

Jimena's expression changed and she quickly refused. "I'm sorry. "I can't do it."

Jimena returned the embroidery to Casey, her complexion slightly pale as she whispered, “I can't do it. I'm sorry".

Davey had strict rules about it. If it went unnoticed, it was one thing, but if it came to light, the consequences would be dire.

Jimena wouldn't dare take such a risk, not even with ten lives to spare.

Previously, Jimena had helped Casey buy Angelica Sinensis, and had only done so in disguise. At this point, Casey was feeling homesick, and even if they were caught, it wasn't likely to be fatal.
