Forgotten Wife Let the traitors kneel Down (by Patricia Maradiaga) novel Chapter 81

All I Want is to Give Them a Home

Before returning to the temple, Abril entered a clothing store while the children waited outside with one of the guards and bought several outfits and shoes for them.

As she left the store, a man with blond hair and golden eyes approached her; he was about to take her hand when one of the guards stopped him.

He stared at Abril as if he were seeing a ghost and said to her.

“Sophia, are you alive?! You can’t imagine how long I’ve been looking for

Abril thought that this man was confusing her with someone else, although she found the color of his eyes unusual.

“Sorry, I think you’ve got the wrong person.”

“Sophia, I’m Ethan, don’t you remember me?”

Abril had never seen that man before; if she had, she would remember him. Noah took the

princess’s hand and said to her.

“We must go.”

The man tried to stop Abril, but Rafael prevented him, and Noah helped the princess and the

children into the carriage.

Ethan continued calling her.

“Sophia, don’t go, you have to listen to me.”

Rafael pushed him, causing him to fall to the ground, and said in a threatening voice.

“Stay away from her.”

Rafael got into the carriage and set off, leaving the unknown man behind.

Ethan got up from the ground, watched as the carriage moved away, and said.

“I don’t know what has happened to you, Sophia, but I will find you and bring you back home, to our

home.”

The children were inside the carriage with Abril, and they smelled bad. Rafael wished to arrive

soon so he could get out of that carriage.

some sweets she had bought at the market with them. She was sweet and kind but also had a strong character, something he realized that day when she looked at them firmly, dernonstrating her authority.

Many nobles talked about the foolish and useless princess who would never become queen. But Rafael didn’t see it that way; she just needed to polish a few things to become a great queen.

They exchanged glances, and Abril asked him.

“What happened to that man?”

When they arrived at the temple, Abril got off the carriage and helped the children down. Otis,

seeing they were at the temple, asked.

“Will you leave us here?”

“Of course not, but I’m staying here. Come on.”

The children followed Abril, and as they walked through the halls, they encountered a priest. Abril asked him for a room for the children and a place where they could take a bath.

The priest showed them where the bathroom was and then we

After the children bathed and changed their clothes, they looked much better, but they still seemed haggard, pale, and tired.

Abril accompanied them to the room where they would be staying, tucked them into bed, and sang to them until they fell asleep.

She stayed with them, watching over their sleep.

When Alessandro returned, the first thing he did was look for Abril, but she wasn’t in the room. The

two guards assigned to her were three doors down. He approached them and asked.

“Where is my wife?”

Rafael responded.

“She is in this room.”

Alessandro entered without letting Rafael finish speaking.

Abril put a finger to her lips and said to him.

“Silence, they’re sleeping.”

“Where did those children come from?”

Abril took Alessandro out of the room and said in a low voice.

“You’ll wake them up.”

Alessandro looked at the guards for an answer, and Noah replied.

“We found them in the village.”

Abril continued with what Noah was saying.

“They’re orphans. I brought them here.”

Abril didn’t want to have that conversation in front of the guards, so she went to her room.

Alessandro followed her and asked.

“Why did you bring them with you?”

“Because they were alone, scared, and hungry, with no one to care for them, just like I once was.”

“I understand that you feel identified with them, but…”

“You once said I could ask for anything. I want to help those children.”

Alessandro took Abril’s face and said to her,

“You are not like them.”

“You don’t know anything, don’t act like you know everything about me.”

“Then talk to me. I can’t understand you if you don’t.”

“I just want those children to have what I never had, a home of their own.”

“You have a home now.”

“And that’s why I want them to have one as well.”

Abril thought it was a good moment to use the charms Lady Elizabeth had given her a long time ago. She hugged Alessandro, caressing his muscular chest and moving up to his face. She stood on tiptoe, kissed him, and said,

“You promised to do what I asked of you.”

Abril kissed him again and said,

“Please, just this once, for me.”

“You’re not backing down on this, are you?”

Abril kissed him again, he hugged her and said.

“How can I refuse if you ask me this way?”

“That sounds good.”

Alessandro kissed her and said.

“I love you.”

“Thank you for keeping your promise, Lessan.”
