Became A Queen After divorce

That morning, Pearl and Sasha had asked him if he wanted to see Giana and Esteban off.

Sam had declined.

In what capacity would he be there? As an employer or an enemy?

It was better not to go at all. He thought Giana and Esteban probably didn’t want to see him either.

He hadn’t expected to feel lonely. He had always been alone before…

“Is it because I’m getting older that I start to miss the past?”

Whether it was Gracie, Kelvin, or even Pearl now, Sam felt he had changed a lot.

To shake off this strange feeling, he forced himself to think about something else.

Yes, think about Declan. That old guy must be in trouble now without the universal blood.

What would his next move be?

Just as he thought of this, Sam’s expression changed. He didn’t believe that the selfish Declan would let the little boy go so easily.

He picked up the phone on the desk and quickly dialed a mysterious number.

A hoarse, deep voice came from the other end, sounding somewhat familiar.

“Mr. Hurst, what can I do for you?”

“Where is Declan now?”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Huh?”

Why was Mr. Hurst suddenly asking about Mr. Gilliam’s whereabouts?

The person seemed to think for a moment before quickly replying, “Mr. Gilliam went out after breakfast this morning. He didn’t say where he was going.”

“Miss Callahan also went out… She went to a club and hasn’t come out yet.”

Sam didn’t care about that woman’s whereabouts, but why would a kept woman go to a club for no reason?

His naturally suspicious mind never overlooked any possibility!

“Send two people to keep an eye on her. Now, you need to find out Declan’s whereabouts, especially if he shows up at the station!”

“Yes!”

After hanging up, Sam couldn’t sit still.

He put on a white suit jacket, grabbed the gun from the drawer, and left the study.

An old green train ran on the tracks, its wheels making a rhythmic sound as they met the rails.

From Zheemond South Station to Icham took about twelve hours. To save on travel expenses, Giana chose a medium-speed regular train.

The journey passed through many places, including mountains, seas, and numerous towns.

It was Esteban’s first time on a train. The little guy was curious about everything and soon forgot his sadness about leaving.

He leaned quietly against his mother, his bright black eyes eagerly watching the blue sky and sea outside the window.

“Mom, look at that boat on the sea. It looks like a leaf floating on the water.”

Giana gently patted his head and nodded to show she saw it too.

She told Esteban that her hometown was even more beautiful.

It was an old village by the sea where people lived by fishing.

Every day they could see the vast ocean and blue sky, and sometimes even pink dolphins.

In fairy tales, pink dolphins represented luck.

Giana quickly signed to Esteban: “Child, if you ever see a pink dolphin, remember not to harm it.”

“If it kisses you, it means good luck is coming your way. You can make a wish then, and the lovely dolphin will grant it.”

Pink dolphins were known as the maidens of the sea. Like human girls, they were shy and usually hid in the water.

Only innocent and kind-hearted people could meet them and have their wishes granted.

Esteban smiled expectantly after hearing this and said, “Please let me see a pink dolphin. I want to bring Sasha home.”

Giana smiled more kindly at his words.

She didn’t think there was anything wrong with her son’s wish. One was nine years old, and the other just three and a half. What other thoughts could they have?

They just played well together and didn’t want to be separated.

In a few years, she would be happy to have a daughter-in-law as lovely and well-behaved as Sasha.

Unfortunately… she doubted Esteban would be that lucky. Sasha’s family didn’t seem ordinary.

If a pink dolphin could give Esteban some hope, that would be good. When he grew older, Giana would teach him more about dealing with people.

An hour passed quickly. The train stopped for five minutes at the next station.

During these five minutes, people smoked or used the restroom.

They had woken up at six in the morning to catch the train and hadn’t eaten breakfast yet.

Giana could endure it as an adult, but she didn’t want her son to go hungry.

She looked at him with concern: “Are you hungry?”

Esteban nodded, then shook his head.

“I’m fine. Mom, you should eat something.”

As his mother, Giana knew what he was thinking.

He probably thought they didn’t have much money and that they would need it for many things once they returned home. So they should save wherever they could.

Before they left, Sam had sent some money, but Giana didn’t want to take money from her husband’s killer and refused it with dignity.

Her son felt the same way.

Esteban didn’t want his mom to worry about him, so he pretended to be full and patted his belly.

“Mom, look, my belly is still full.”

“When I was locked in the stable, I often didn’t know when my next meal would come, so I got used to it!”

“I can get full just by drinking water now. I just drank some; I’m really not hungry.”

The more sensible he was, the more Giana felt heartbroken and guilty…

It was her fault for not taking good care of her son and letting him get lost. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been locked in a stable and lived such a hard life.

“Mom, don’t cry. Did I say something wrong?”

Giana kissed his forehead with tears in her eyes.

A cold tear fell on Esteban’s eye. He felt his mom’s emotions at that moment.

After a few seconds of silence, Esteban looked up again and playfully snuggled into Giana’s arms like other children: “Mom, I’m hungry. I want some instant noodles.”

Giana stopped crying as expected. She hugged Esteban tightly with tears of joy.

Then she took out a cup of instant noodles from their luggage along with some snacks and handed them all to Esteban.

“Eat up!”

The snacks were given by Pearl before they boarded the train. Esteban also had a piece of candy in his pocket.

That was from Sasha!
