OK, so I went back to searching and found this item:
http://www.newertech.com/products/esatatousb3.php
It internal converts eSata to usb3.0 protocol.
Which is the opposite of what you said you need:
"Connect your eSATA equipped external drive to a USB 3.0 port for
SuperSpeed data transfer!"
If the thing you're looking for exists, I've never seen it. I really
don't think it does.
Note that USB devices expect power, and eSata doesn't provide it. If
you find a device that does what you want, one of the indications will
be that it comes with a power supply of its own. It won't be a cable,
alone, nor will it be an adapter without a power supply.
Did I?
I thought I said my external drive is usb3.0 with Micro-B connector
and my laptop has eSata female port.
Howver, what I read about this item is that
it can be used in either direction:
eSata device to usb port on laptop
usb3 device to esata port on laptop.
Only the cabling is what you need to add.
