Became A Queen After divorce

Libby had certainly heard about this matter and had already found a clue.

The child named “Esteban” did not return to his hometown but went back to Zheemond.

As for where he was hiding, she needed some more time to find out.

“You might want to send more people to search the city. I’ll find a way to stall Pearl.”

“Alright.”

Just as the words left her mouth, Pearl arrived.

The moment they saw her figure, Natalia and Libby exchanged a quick glance and stopped discussing the previous topic.

“Mommy, I’ve been looking for you for a long time. So, you were here.”

Pearl walked towards them, followed by the strikingly elegant Cheyenne.

The woman wore a simple black dress, her wavy long hair cascading down her back.

Even the simplest dress and the most minimalistic style couldn’t hide her beauty.

If one couldn’t see her merits at first glance, placing her in a crowd would make it clear that Cheyenne was always the most outstanding one.

Because of her fresh and unique aura, Natalia immediately recognized that Cheyenne was not an ordinary person.

Her eyes lit up instantly.

“Pearl, who is this?”

Cheyenne discreetly observed the beautiful woman in front of her.

Based on appearance alone, Natalia was undoubtedly a typical Chulae beauty. But upon closer inspection, the suspicion and wariness hidden in her eyes ruined her gentle aura.

This person was not as simple as she seemed.

Considering that she was the wife of the cunning Declan, everything made sense.

“This is Cheyenne Lawrence. She is a new friend of mine. Cheyenne is from Chulae and is an excellent doctor. She cured Lord Parker’s illness.”

From Chulae?

Natalia did not know any Chulae people with the surname Lawrence, especially one proficient in medicine.

However, Cheyenne’s appearance felt somewhat familiar to her, as if she had seen her somewhere before.

She had been imprisoned for so long that she couldn’t recall where she had seen this face.

Until she heard Cheyenne’s self-introduction.

“Hello, Mrs. Gilliam. My name is Cheyenne. I’m Pearl’s friend.”

Women take their husband’s surname after marriage, both domestically and abroad.

But Natalia hated being addressed with that man’s surname, and her face darkened slightly.

“Call me Natalia.”

She corrected Cheyenne’s address.

Cheyenne subtly raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Pearl’s parents did not have a harmonious relationship.

“Alright. Natalia it is.”

Natalia realized she had been somewhat rude just now and smiled apologetically at Cheyenne.

“Miss Lawrence, please don’t misunderstand. I’m just not used to being called ‘Mrs. Gilliam.’ It’s nothing against you.”

“I understand, Natalia. Don’t worry about it.”

“That’s good. May I ask who your parents are? I visited Chulae over twenty years ago, and you look very much like someone I knew.”

Natalia visited Chulae when she was young?

Cheyenne was surprised but answered her question smoothly: “My father is Channing, currently residing in Onistead. My mother was Selah; she passed away many years ago.”

The familiar names instantly triggered Natalia’s buried memories. She stared at Cheyenne in a daze, murmuring:

“No wonder… no wonder!”

She had found Cheyenne familiar because she was Selah’s daughter.

Yes, Natalia had met Selah before.

Years ago, when she traveled from Taswya to Chulae searching for Gregory, she was swindled out of her money at the station because she was unfamiliar with Onistead.

A young girl helped her enthusiastically and retrieved her money.

That girl was Cheyenne’s mother-Selah.

Coincidentally, Natalia met the girl again after entering the Lucas family mansion.

She later learned from the servants that Selah was Master Omari Channing’s beloved.

“By chance, I met your mother many years ago.”

“At that time, she and your father were not yet married. But when they appeared together, they were an enviable couple.”

Channing adored Selah and wouldn’t allow anyone to bully her, even if she was mocked as a fool.

“During my stay in Chulae, an amusing incident occurred. A maid from the Lucas family admired your father and looked down on your mother.”

“One day, she bullied Selah into retrieving a necklace from the lake. Your father caught her in the act and kicked the maid into the lake to experience it herself.”

After that, everyone in Onistead knew that Selah was Channing’s cherished one and no one could bully her!

Natalia also envied Selah, but their interactions ended there.

Later, she left heartbroken after Gregory broke off their engagement.

She heard that shortly after she left, Channing also left the Lucas family because of Selah.

Cheyenne listened intently to the love story between her parents. The old man was too shy to ever mention these things.

“Thank you for telling me this, Natalia. I never met my mother since birth. Hearing these stories is a comfort.”

In her heart, Selah was a beautiful, wise woman who knew how to hide her talents.

More importantly, she sacrificed her young life so Cheyenne could live smoothly.

Without that great woman, there would be no Cheyenne in this world.

Cheyenne felt both longing and gratitude towards Selah.

Cheyenne’s words “I never met my mother since birth” struck a chord with both Natalia and Pearl.

In this regard, Pearl was like her; she also never saw her mother since birth.

But Pearl was luckier; at least her mother was still alive, and they had reunited.

Cheyenne seemed a bit more unfortunate.

“Cheyenne, I believe Selah has turned into a star in the sky, watching over you every day.”

“Yes, thank you, Pearl.”

On countless summer nights, Cheyenne thought the same while looking at the stars.

She wasn’t someone without a mother; her mother had always been by her side.

Natalia stood there in a daze.

Did Pearl… think the same as Miss Lawrence?

Libby noticed their reactions and hated how Pearl’s presence took away her aunt’s attention.

Clearing her throat, she forcibly changed the topic to break the sentimental atmosphere.

“Pearl, did you bring Miss Lawrence here for something specific?”

If not, then leave quickly!

Reminded by Libby, Pearl remembered why she came to see her mother in the first place.

She stuck out her tongue sheepishly and said: “Mommy, you’ve been coughing a lot lately and often have insomnia at night.”

“Cheyenne is a doctor. I wanted to ask her to check on you.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
