"Get out of this house."
Calliope cast a glance at Monty, then at her three brothers, and finally at Zelda and Lisette standing on the stairs.
She turned her head to look at the family portrait hanging on the wall. Ironically, it featured the entire family—everyone except her.
The portrait had been taken a year after Lisette arrived. On the day of the shoot, Lisette had locked her away somewhere, and they had gone ahead and taken the picture without her.
They had even scolded her harshly, blaming her for wandering off. She had tried to explain, but no one listened.
Later, at Lisette's insistence, the portrait was hung up, but she was never in it.
"To all of you, I'm just extra baggage. From now on, I won't be coming back. And just so you know, Silas and I are married. He's my husband now!"
"Calliope, what's with the drama!" Horatio stood up. "Do you really have to disrupt this family? I know we treat Lisette well, but she deserves it!"
Calliope turned, meeting Horatio's gaze with a sharp, mocking smile.
"Right, she's good to you, and I'm not."
"Lisette healed my leg. Without her, I'd be a cripple! She saved Valerian's life. Without Lisette, he wouldn’t be here! Ulysses's success in the entertainment industry? All thanks to Lisette!
You should be grateful! We're grateful to Lisette, but we haven't treated you poorly, have we? Why are you always competing with her?"
Calliope chuckled softly. "Oh, don’t worry. I won't compete with her anymore."
She saved them; everything was thanks to her. Ridiculously, no one believed it.
They were convinced it must be sweet and kind Lisette.
Not her, the wicked biological sister.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
