Became A Queen After divorce

“Miss Lawrence’s medical skills are truly impressive.”

Receiving such praise, Cheyenne remained humble and replied, “Mr. Gilliam, you flatter me. I’m just an ordinary doctor among many. Traditional medicine is vast and profound; I believe there are always greater heights to reach and more talented people out there.”

Pearl playfully winked at Cheyenne and teased, “Miss Lawrence, my daddy rarely praises anyone. Over the years, besides Sam, you’re the only one he’s complimented. Not even me.”

The mention of “Sam” caused a stir among those present. Kelvin was calm since he had already met Sam, but Eddie was excited and grabbed her arm, asking eagerly, “What did you say? You know Sam?”

Cheyenne hadn’t expected that the girl she saved, Pearl, would have a connection to Sam. “Mr. Zamora… please let go of me, it hurts.”

The girl’s soft voice calmed Eddie down instantly. Seeing the bruises on Pearl’s pale arm, he felt regretful for his earlier behavior. “I’m sorry, Miss Pearl. I didn’t mean to. I was just…”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Fortunately, Pearl was understanding and didn’t hold it against him. “I understand, Mr. Zamora. No need to blame yourself.”

Cheyenne then curiously asked Pearl, “Miss Pearl, is the Sam you mentioned a man around thirty years old from Chulae?”

“Miss Lawrence, do you know him too?” Pearl was surprised that Cheyenne knew Sam. After all, the only commonality between them was that they both came from Chulae.

“Sam is my half-brother,” Kelvin’s response left the Gilliam family father and daughter in disbelief. Although Kelvin and Sam were both handsome, their temperaments and appearances were entirely different. Kelvin was like ice and snow-cold and noble-while Sam was like a gentle jade-reserved and introverted. Only their deep-set eyes bore a similar spark.

Pearl couldn’t believe it either; her savior turned out to be Sam’s sister-in-law. What a coincidence! However, their attitude when mentioning Sam suggested that their relationship wasn’t very good.

Cheyenne nodded, confirming Kelvin’s words. “Miss Gilliam, could you tell me where I can find Sam?”

Miss Lawrence and Mr. Foley didn’t seem like bad people, and they were related to Sam… Just as Pearl was about to give them the address of Red Maple Villa, Declan cunningly interrupted their conversation.

“Sam is on a business trip and won’t be back for a while.”

“Do you know where he went, Mr. Gilliam?” Eddie asked eagerly. Although he was part of the diplomatic mission, his personal goal was to find his niece.

Declan hesitated for a second, pretending to think before saying, “I don’t know either. But when Sam returns, he’ll definitely come to Red Maple Villa to find me. I’ll inform you then.”

They only knew that Sam was in Zheemond, but finding someone in such a large place was like searching for a needle in a haystack. The only clue they had was the Gilliam family. They had no choice but to agree with Declan’s suggestion.

“Alright, thank you, Mr. Gilliam.”

“We’re looking for Sam just to bring him back to Chulae. After all, that’s his homeland, and Kelvin is his only relative.” Cheyenne spoke earnestly to avoid raising Declan’s suspicions.

Back to Chulae! Pearl’s heart sank upon hearing this; it felt like her heart condition was acting up again. She had always known that Sam didn’t belong here and would eventually leave. And she… was just a fleeting passerby in his life.

As a fellow woman, Cheyenne immediately noticed Pearl’s emotional change. When Sam was mentioned earlier, Pearl’s eyes had a certain indescribable brightness. But when Cheyenne said she was there to take Sam away, Pearl became dejected. Such a reaction could only mean one thing-she had fallen for him.

For a moment, Cheyenne didn’t know whether to tell Pearl the truth. If she knew she had fallen for a notorious man, she might be torn apart.

That night before bed, Cheyenne told Kelvin about her suspicion that Pearl liked Sam. He seemed taken aback.

“That… can’t be. Pearl and Sam are from two different worlds; it’s impossible!”

Cheyenne immediately countered, “What do you mean by ‘different worlds’? Aren’t we from different worlds too? Yet here we are together.”

“In my opinion, someone as scheming as Sam doesn’t deserve someone as kind and pure as Miss Gilliam.” That girl looked like a novice in love; facing Sam, she would only end up losing.

Kelvin clicked his tongue and turned over, propping his head with one hand as he looked at the woman in his arms. He kissed her lips defiantly. “Weren’t we talking about Sam and Pearl? How did this become about us?”

“Isn’t it? Have you forgotten how you…” Before she could finish her sentence, Kelvin pulled her into his arms and lightly bit her earlobe. “I don’t care; Cheyenne and I belong to the same world.”

Back then… He wouldn’t give Cheyenne the chance to bring up old scores again; there were many ways to divert her attention. Turning off the lights was the most practical.

Cheyenne was speechless.

Every time they talked, she couldn’t get ten sentences in before he started playing tricks.

The next day, the Chulae delegation completed their mission successfully and prepared to return home. Cheyenne stayed behind temporarily to treat Lord Parker while Kelvin chose to stay with her.

Master Glenn and Eddie were still waiting for news from the Gilliam family and didn’t plan to return to Chulae either. Thus, out of the eleven-member team that went abroad, only seven returned.

After half a month of continuous treatment, Lord Parker’s condition finally improved somewhat. Cheyenne hoped to find Sasha soon so she could return home with peace of mind. After all these days away, she missed Cierra and Oliver.

Time flew by; half a month later.

Today was Eddie’s final check-up; if everything was fine, they wouldn’t need to visit the Duke’s mansion anymore.

“How is it, Mr. Zamora? Am I almost cured?”
