Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 330

Chapter 330: Chapter 330 – You are catching up

The realization felt a little ridiculous, yet somehow it made perfect sense. Esperanza nodded right away, then wrapped her little arms around his neck. "Finally, Daddy," she said, patting his shoulder in a dramatic way. "You are catching up."

Corvine burst out laughing, and even Seraphine couldn’t hold back a smile. Voren didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

His daughter had just managed to insult and compliment him at the same time, and the fact that she sounded so serious about it made it even better.

After a moment, another important thought crossed his mind. He gently rubbed her back. "About the test..."

Before he could finish, Esperanza interrupted him. "It’s okay, Daddy." The confidence in her voice instantly drew everyone’s attention. "What you and Mommy decide is best."

Voren stared at her, once again completely caught off guard. One day she wanted nothing to do with human school, and the next she was trusting him and Seraphine to make huge decisions for her.

The difference was obvious. Esperanza finally looked happy, truly happy, and a lot of that happiness seemed tied directly to Seraphine. Voren exchanged a quick glance with Seraphine, and neither of them missed it.

After a few seconds, Voren returned to the topic that had been weighing on all of them. "Tell me something," he said, his expression growing serious. Esperanza nodded. "After Corvine gave you to that woman, how did you end up with Coco?"

At this point, Voren was ready to believe just about anything she said. Too many details had already proven impossible for a child her age to know otherwise. Esperanza’s little face scrunched up in concentration. "I didn’t go to Coco immediately."

The answer surprised everyone. "You didn’t?"

She shook her head. "The woman took me to her realm first." The room instantly fell silent as every adult froze, their full attention now locked on her. Esperanza kept speaking as casually as if she were talking about a toy she saw in the mall. "I stayed there for a whole year."

Seraphine’s heart skipped a beat. A year?

"What was it like?" Corvine asked quietly.

Esperanza tilted her head. "It was peaceful. She took care of me." The little girl smiled softly. "I drank her milk."

The statement stunned everyone. Then she added another detail. "Every time she showed me Mommy’s picture, she would tell me the same thing."

Seraphine unconsciously leaned forward. "What did she say?"

Esperanza’s blue eyes settled on her. "She always told me that my mommy didn’t know I was away." The words hit Seraphine like a wave. "She said if Mommy knew where I was, she would find me."

Silence swallowed the room. Seraphine felt completely dazed. The information created way more questions than answers. A realm? Not the human world. Not the werewolf world. Then where?

Her mind immediately jumped to one possibility. The Moon Goddess. Could it have been her? The question burned on the tip of her tongue. She wanted to ask. Needed to ask.

But before she could open her mouth, Esperanza continued speaking. What followed left every adult in the room utterly speechless. The little girl began recounting events in remarkable detail, describing things no child her age should have been able to remember. And with every new revelation she shared, the room grew quieter and quieter.
