Became A Queen After divorce

Her future would forever lose its color, leaving only sorrowful black and white.

Now that Kelvin wanted to take his ashes away, Pearl suddenly became alert. She wiped her tears and ran barefoot to the door.

Click-

The door finally opened.

Pearl, with red eyes and a hint of crimson in her gaze, looked nervously at Kelvin.

Her long hair was disheveled, and she wore a crumpled white nightgown. At some point, she had stepped on broken glass, causing her feet to bleed.

Cheyenne frowned.

It had only been a day since they last saw each other, and she had already turned herself into this state.

If Sam could see this from the afterlife, he would be heartbroken.

“No, I won’t allow you to take him. He is the love of my life.”

“Would you be willing to come back to Chulae with us? Though Sam is gone, you are the woman he acknowledged, my sister-in-law.”

“Before he died, he had two wishes: one was you; the other was to return to his family.”

So Kelvin would not change his decision to take Sam back to Chulae.

Pearl was stunned by Kelvin’s proposal, her mind racing.

“Go back to Chulae?”

No wonder she had seen him staring at the moon in a daze several times; he was homesick.

Pearl quickly made up her mind. As she took the food, she firmly announced to Cheyenne and her husband:

“Alright, I’ll go with you to take him home.”

Seeing her finally regain her spirit, Cheyenne was also happy.

“Eat first, then take a bath and change your clothes… We’ll collect the ashes tomorrow and leave early the day after.”

“Thank you, Cheyenne. Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do.”

She had lost her father, and Sam had left her. As for her mother…

Pearl planned to let her stay in a mental hospital.

She would send money every month and occasionally visit her.

Cheyenne patted her shoulder sympathetically, feeling a bit emotional.

“Just call me Cheyenne. From now on, I’ll call you sister-in-law; that makes us family.”

“Family…” The word was so beautiful that Pearl was moved to tears.

“Cheyenne, Kelvin… Thank you.”

She had lost her family, but Cheyenne had given her one back. How could Pearl not be moved?

The next morning, at the crematorium.

God seemed to know it was Sam’s cremation day; the sky was overcast from morning till now.

The air was humid and oppressive, making it uncomfortable.

Cheyenne wore a fitted black long-sleeved dress. Her long curly hair cascaded down her back, with a small white paper flower pinned by her temple.

Pearl’s outfit was similar, except her hair was braided.

As Sam’s widow, she held his portrait in front of her. She neither cried nor smiled, watching everything calmly.

From behind, the girl’s figure was slender and graceful… No one noticed she was already three months pregnant!

Not many people attended the farewell ceremony; there were only the three of them and Duke Peberdy who happened to visit.

Pearl didn’t ask anyone for help; she personally arranged her beloved’s remains.

“My beloved Sam was an elegant and meticulous man. No matter where he went, his shirt was never dirty.”

“He liked white suits and everything as clean as snow.”

Her pale fingers brushed over his cold face. The sleeping man remained handsome, though his complexion was slightly pale.

If he weren’t lifeless, everyone would think he was just asleep.

The staff came out to urge them.

Cremation also followed a schedule. Recently, business had been good, and many families booked in advance for an auspicious time.

If it was your turn and you weren’t there, you’d have to reschedule.

Kelvin immediately shot a cold glance over, his chilling voice echoing in everyone’s ears.

“A few more minutes. Understand?”

Look at his grim reaper face; he scared the staff away with just one look!

The staff tactically retreated a step.

Cheyenne stepped forward to apologize and gently explained: “Could we have ten more minutes? His family wants to say a final goodbye.”

Cheyenne was beautiful and kind…

Just listening to her voice softened the staff’s heart; how could they refuse?

“Well… alright then. I’ll give you ten more minutes. Please make your farewells quickly.”

“Thank you.”

Noticing the staff glancing at Cheyenne twice, Kelvin’s aura grew colder, scaring them away.

Cheyenne was speechless.

She wondered if it was her imagination; it seemed like it might rain soon.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

A tear fell onto Sam’s lifeless cheek as Pearl lowered her head and kissed his lips in front of everyone.

Her choked voice echoed with sobs:

“Sam, in our next life… let’s be together again. I still want to marry you.”

“Wait for me patiently down there. Once our child grows up, I’ll come find you.”

“You’re so handsome; even as a ghost, you’ll probably attract many admirers. Stay away from pretty female ghosts, okay?”

“And… I love you.”

…

The hardest chasm to cross in life is not age or gender but life and death.

Witnessing Pearl’s deep affection for Sam, Cheyenne couldn’t stop crying either.

She didn’t know why she couldn’t stop crying; she wasn’t usually this sentimental.

Kelvin held her hand tightly. At that moment, he was immensely grateful that he could be with his beloved Cheyenne.

If he hadn’t chosen to jump off the cliff with her back then, perhaps he would be alone today too.

“Don’t cry anymore; it pains me.”

Cheyenne leaned into his arms, crying softly: “Sister-in-law really loves Sam. She wants to be with him even in the next life.”

“What about you, Cheyenne? Would you want to be with me in the next life too?”

Kelvin whispered in her ear, his intense gaze seemingly urging her to give a positive answer.

After a long while, Cheyenne blushed and hesitantly asked:

“Would you want that? Why should I answer first? It’s not fair.”

Kelvin answered without hesitation: “I would. In this life, the next life, and every life after that, I want to be with Cheyenne.”

“Then I would too.”

Worried that Pearl might be saddened by the scene, they didn’t hug but just smiled at each other.

A few hours later, holding the freshly cremated ashes, Pearl’s long-suppressed tears finally burst forth.

She hugged the cold urn tightly, constantly murmuring Sam’s name.

“Sam, I’m taking you home.”

No one disturbed her. It was better for her to vent her grief than keep it bottled up inside.

The next morning, Kelvin bought tickets and took Cheyenne, sister-in-law Pearl, and brother Sam back home!

It was Pearl’s first time in Chulae, where Sam grew up.

Channing accepted her as family. Together they buried the ashes in Xona’s ancestral land.

Only then did Pearl learn that Cheyenne was not only her sister-in-law but also her cousin.

Fate is truly wonderful. She had wanted to come to Chulae since she was young but never imagined she would settle here as Sam’s wife.

She had money.

Declan had foreseen his downfall and transferred half of his assets to Pearl’s name beforehand. She owned several villas in Metshire and Taswya.

Sam also left Red Maple Villa to her along with all his assets.

With all this money combined, Pearl could live comfortably for ten lifetimes even with a child.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

She first spent fifteen million dollars on a villa in Akloit and became neighbors with the Foley family.

She also took out one-tenth of her assets to establish a children’s foundation aimed at helping underprivileged children and reuniting lost children with their families.

She did this not because she had too much money but because she wanted to atone for the mistakes made by her father and husband in the past.

This gave her another purpose in life.

She didn’t plan to use the remaining money for business ventures either.

Pearl knew herself well; she was just a rich second-generation kid who lacked business acumen.

All the money went into bank savings and funds managed by professional financial advisors.

She couldn’t even spend all the interest each month.

Once the baby was born, she planned to find a job in her field and live an ordinary life as an ordinary person.

Besides…

Pearl glanced at her watermelon-sized belly and gently placed her hand on it.

“Baby, you’ll support Mommy too, right?”

As if hearing her thoughts, the baby kicked her from inside.

Pearl screamed excitedly: “Cheyenne! Kate! The baby kicked me! It’s amazing! Is he trying to interact with me?”

Since coming to Akloit through Cheyenne’s introduction, Pearl had also become good friends with Kate.

The three pregnant women always had something to talk about every day. They enjoyed each other’s company so much that they didn’t even want to go home.

Yes, Cheyenne was also pregnant.

She found out after returning from Taswya.

At first, she didn’t think much of it until one night when she felt some pain while being intimate with Kelvin.

She checked her pulse and realized she was pregnant with their third child at 25!

Most girls her age were just starting their careers and making their mark in the workplace.

But under Kelvin’s and Daddy’s pressure, she resigned from work to rest at home…

Without work obligations, she spent every day taking care of two little ones. Initially fine but later on Cheyenne just wanted to strangle Kelvin.

It was all his fault!

The more she thought about it, the more upset she became. One night when she woke up in pain alone and saw him sleeping soundly beside her…

Feeling unbalanced, she kicked Kelvin out of bed and made him sleep in the study for a month.

“Hmph! That’s more like it. Why should I suffer through pregnancy while you just wait to be a dad?”

Poor Kelvin didn’t even know he had offended his wife by sleeping too soundly.

He felt wronged but dared not complain because this was his wife after all!
