The question pierced Jimenaâs heart, evoking a poignant twinge in her chest.
With trembling hands, she wrote her response, her words revealing the weight of her resignation.
âItâs no use wanting.
â
Each of Daveyâs personal physicians signed up for three years, but survival was rare.
Many didnât see the end of their terms.
Casey blinked her eyelashes, jotting down.
âDr.
Hinks, if you want to go back, I can help you.
â
Jimenaâs eyes widened in surprise as she wrote.
âMadam, what are you saying?â
Perplexed, Jimena couldnât fathom why Casey would extend such an offer to help her.
Casey quickly scribbled on the paper.
âI want to go back to my country because Iâ¦â
Pausing with her pen, Casey didnât finish the thought about missing her child and continued, âI also want to go back.
â
Jimena gestured with her hands, asking, âMadam, is it Mr.
Glyn who wonât let you leave?â
Casey nodded, her elegant handwriting showing her resolve as she wrote forcefully.
âDo you believe me?â
Jimena, still a bit dazed, nodded.
âHelp me buy a certain traditional herb, but remember, Mr.
Glyn must not find out it was you who bought it.
â Casey wrote down her instructions.
Casey cautioned about Daveyâs suspicious nature, worrying that any hint of Jimenaâs involvement could lead to unwarranted suspicions.
When Casey remembered the humiliation she had gotten just now, she bit her lower lip so hard that it almost bled.
From the moment she and Davey met again, her nightmares started.
Back then, Davey imprisoned Casey in his villa in Ardlens, and she lived a nightmare-like Life for half a month.
Finally, she managed to escape when he was not paying attention to her.
That was five years ago.
At that time, the Hayes family was in trouble.
Casey didnât want to add more trouble to her family and the Foster family, so she hid in the quiet and secluded Siren alone.
There, she gave birth to a daughter.
Later, Casey discovered traces of Daveyâs men.
She was so flustered that she asked a kind neighbor to give her child to someone who could be trusted.
As expected, Daveyâs men caught Casey.
Davey took her back and brought her abroad.
She stayed in a remote place called Aurora, a primitive tribe without the rule of law.
Davey brought Casey there because it was a better place to imprison her and cut off all her contact with Ambrosia.
When Casey first got there, she did her best to resist, wanting to leave.
No matter how difficult her situation was, she did not give up the idea of escaping.
But when Casey heard the news about her daughterâs death, her world collapsed.
Others assumed Casey accidentally fell from the balcony.
No one knew she jumped down from the balcony because of desperation.
She had been in a coma since then for five years.
When Casey woke up, she found that Davey had not changed at all.
He was still the same paranoid, bloodthirsty, and crazy Davey she knew.
Davey didnât care how many people he would kill as long as he could keep Casey by his side.
