Became A Queen After divorce

“Esteban, Sasha doesn’t want you to leave. Are you really going?”

“Pearl, can’t Giana and Esteban stay? Boo hoo…”

“I really like them and don’t want to be separated.”

Sasha buried her head in Pearl’s arms, sobbing softly like a kitten, both adorable and heart-wrenching.

Soon, her delicate, fair face was covered in tears, and her eyes turned red, looking pitiful like a little rabbit.

She remembered how Giana had taken care of her all night when she had a high fever, as gentle as a mother.

And Esteban…

The first time she met him, the little boy was trapped in the stable, yet he still picked grass to weave little toys for her to cheer her up.

When she missed her parents, it was Esteban who told her that counting stars could make her forget all her worries.

Seeing Sasha so sad, Giana also felt reluctant to part with her.

She had liked the little girl from the first time she saw her, which was why she took such good care of her when she was sick.

Giana couldn’t speak but expressed her emotions through simple actions-a hug!

She opened her arms and hugged Sasha as she had done before, then bent down to kiss her forehead.

It meant: Don’t be sad; I will miss you.

Sasha cried even louder, clutching Giana’s sleeve and sobbing:

“I understand. I will be good.”

At this moment, Esteban, who had been silent, suddenly took out a small grass-woven rabbit from his pocket and handed it to Sasha.

In his mind, little Sasha was as cute as this rabbit.

With nothing else to give her as a parting gift, he had stayed up all night to weave this for her.

Esteban was nine years old and understood that once he and his mother left, they might never return.

Sasha’s home wasn’t here either; it was far away in the East, in Chulae. Would she come back after her parents took her away?

This grass-woven rabbit might be their last gift to each other in this lifetime.

So Esteban had woven it very carefully.

It took him almost the whole night, his hands getting cut by the grass several times without stopping.

“Sasha, this is for you. Thank you for taking care of me all this time.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Wow, what a beautiful little rabbit.”

It looked just like a real rabbit, except it was green.

At this moment, Pearl felt a pang of jealousy.

She deliberately asked Esteban teasingly, “Doesn’t the cute and kind me deserve a rabbit gift too?”

Esteban felt troubled. He had only managed to weave one last night and had only thought of Sasha.

He pursed his lips tightly and looked at Pearl with an apologetic face: “I’m sorry, Pearl. I… didn’t have enough time. How about I weave one for you and send it later?”

Seeing him so serious, Pearl couldn’t help but laugh. She was just teasing him.

“Alright, I was just kidding. If you want to thank me, Esteban, study hard and become a useful person to society.”

“I will definitely study hard! And I’ll take care of Mom and Pearl.”

The word “take care” made Pearl laugh out loud.

She was still young. Even when Esteban grew up, she’d only be in her thirties. She didn’t need him to take care of her yet.

“Alright, enough teasing. It’s time to go. Hurry up and get on the train.”

Giana nodded gratefully.

She had found her son smoothly this time thanks to Sasha and Pearl.

If Pearl hadn’t donated half of her blood to Esteban, he would have died long ago.

She would remember this kindness forever and repay it when she had the chance.

“Attention passengers traveling from Zheemond to Icham. Your train is about to depart. Please board quickly.”

The announcement urged passengers to hurry.

Giana picked up their luggage and took Esteban’s hand to leave.

“Esteban, goodbye!”

After just a few steps, Sasha’s crying voice came from behind.

The little boy was pulled into the crowd by his mother but couldn’t help looking back at Sasha one last time.

The little girl held the grass-woven rabbit he gave her, her eyes red as she bid him farewell. Her fair face stood out in the crowd.

“Sasha, goodbye!”

The days they spent counting stars together seemed like yesterday.

If he could, Esteban wished he could take her with him.

But he knew it was impossible.

He had his mother, and Sasha had her family waiting for her.

Soon, Giana and Esteban disappeared from sight. Pearl also prepared to leave with Sasha.

“Sasha, don’t cry. Esteban is going back to school.”

“He won’t suffer anymore or be bullied. We should be happy for him, right?”

Thinking about Esteban’s past life, Sasha nodded tearfully.

“Right.”

“If that’s right, shouldn’t you smile?”

Sasha forced a tearful smile.

So adorable!

Pearl found herself growing more fond of her and took Sasha’s hand to leave.

“Come on, I’ll take you out. Today we won’t go to the amusement park; let’s go see the elephants.”

“I love elephants. I’ve read about them in books. The teacher said their trunks can spray water.”

“They can. I’ll let you swing on an elephant’s trunk later.”

Hearing this, Sasha finally stopped crying and eagerly anticipated seeing a real elephant.

As they left the station, a dozen men in black suits rushed into the hall.

Judging by their attire, they seemed like people from the underworld.

“Have you seen a mute woman with a boy about this tall?”

The person being questioned trembled with fear and described what he had seen earlier for his safety.

“Yes, they… they’ve already boarded the train.”

Upon hearing this, the man roughly pushed him aside and ordered his men:

“Hurry up and stop them. We must get that boy!”

“Yes!”

Red Maple Villa was empty.

The large house was as quiet as a tomb, deathly silent.

Sam felt like a wandering soul with no place to go, just temporarily staying here.

His home was long gone.

When Giana was around, even though she didn’t speak, she brought some life to the house.

Later came Sasha’s laughter and the noisy Pearl; there wasn’t a moment of peace.

Now that they were all gone, Sam found himself unaccustomed to the silence.

He irritably closed his book and glanced at the clock on the wall.

“By now, they should have finished seeing them off.”

Why weren’t they back yet?
