Chapter 1438 Sisters Reunited
Alice stood up in a daze and walked towards Olivia. "You are really my sister?" She smiled and then grabbed Olivia's hand, her eyes full of surprise. "No wonder I felt familiar when I saw you. It turns out we are blood-related sisters!"
Olivia also smiled. "But we haven't done a DNA test yet. Why do you believe it so easily?"
Alice reached out and hugged her. "I believe it. Otherwise, why do I like you so much? It's because we are sisters. It’s just like how you would rather take a fake necklace back than see me cry. It's in our nature. It's such a pity that we met five years ago, but I didn't recognize you. The throne that I'm sitting on rightfully belongs to you. Mother said that if we could find you, she would let you inherit it. Now that you're back, I can step down."
Olivia was taken aback. "Step down? Why would you want to step down after taking the throne? I don't want to be a queen. You have managed Eurosia so well. You are the most suitable for that position."
Alice shook her head anxiously. "I can't do it. Haven't you seen that the Cabinet Consuls don't listen to me? Otherwise, those guards wouldn't have followed Lucian's orders to attack you today. The truth is, I lack the courage. If it were you, Eurosia would be better."
Olivia dodged her. "Don't be lazy. You should bear your responsibilities. I have a husband and sons to take care of now. I don't want to deal with all that royal drama."
Alice looked at Olivia retreating and coaxed, "I think you can totally bring your husband and sons here!"
Olivia also laughed. "No way, my husband and sons have their careers over there. Why would I want to invite trouble for myself? I came this time because I saw how much you all care about Godmother'sNôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
illness. I took the risk of coming. Don't try to morally blackmail me!"
Alice was both frustrated and amused. "Really, do you want me to cry for you?"
Olivia stared at her. "Seriously, you crying to pass the throne to me?"
Alice replied, "Exactly, yet you don’t want it."
Doreen knew that the two sisters were sincere. One felt that she took her sister's place and sincerely wanted to give it back. The other was completely uninterested and genuinely wanted to decline.
Upon seeing them harmoniously coexist like this, she was truly relieved for Blanchett.
At least they were not as ungrateful as Beatrix.
She smiled and said one word at a time, "Stop... shuffling... the responsibility... back and forth..."
Olivia walked over and smiled at Doreen, saying, "Indeed, Godmother knows me best."
Then, she looked at Alice again. "I'm too lazy. I can't even manage my affairs properly, let alone run a whole country. Besides, I haven't received any training in this field since I was young. If you let me manage, Eurosia will probably collapse in no time. I know how glamorous and dazzling this position is, but it is just as demanding. You'll worry a lot, work tirelessly, and might even face unfair treatment. But Eurosia can only find a way out under your guidance. When I saw you today, I almost didn't recognize you. You have a dignified look and a strong aura. You are no longer the little girl who only knew how to cry. The Cabinet Consuls may still be dissatisfied now, but I believe they will all bow down to you in the future!"
Alice, brimming with overwhelming emotion, extended her arms and enveloped Olivia in a heartfelt embrace. "Sis!"
The word "Sis" almost made Olivia shed tears. She comfortingly stroked Alice’s back. "Whenever you need me, I'll be there."
Tears streamed down Alice's face. "During this time, I was really on the verge of giving up. Godmother got sick, and my brother went to find you. Lucian and Beatrix were eyeing me. The Cabinet Consuls, although respectful on the surface, were waiting to see me fail. I used to have Godmother's support before, but later, she became seriously ill and couldn't speak anymore. I was left without anyone to talk to. Fortunately, you came. Not only did I gain a family member, but you are also so capable that you even helped Godmother recover again. I think maybe I'm finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel after enduring all these hardships."
