A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 11
Gideon was deep in thought when a knock on the door interrupted his reverie. He had been thinking about Calliope, but as soon as the sound reached his ears, he pretended to be busy with some papers on his desk.
"Come in," he called out, keeping his eyes firmly on the stack in front of him. He wasn't about to let her know she'd been occupying his thoughts.
He knew Calliope's temperament all too well. If she was coming to him for a favor, he needed to play it cool. If he showed her any warmth, she'd think he couldn't live without her. Regardless of what he did or how he did it, she always seemed to forgive him without question.
"The wedding went smoothly yesterday, I assume?" he said, still not looking up. "I told you, you could handle it on your own. What were you fussing about? You did great. I heard about a nice new bistro in town. I'll take you out for dinner later."
Gideon continued speaking without lifting his gaze, oblivious to the fact that the person who entered wasn't Calliope at all.
Liora, his assistant, stood in the doorway, slightly taken aback. Her expression was a mix of confusion and something else she couldn't quite place.
After a moment, she cleared her throat, "Mr. Baker, I have a document here that needs your signature."
Gideon finally looked up, surprised to see Liora instead of Calliope.
"She didn't come?" he asked, his frowning deepening.
"Who?" Liora was caught off guard.
"Calliope," Gideon replied, still frowning.
Could she really be upset over something so trivial? Surely she had managed the wedding without a hitch. If not, his grandfather would have been on his case by now.
"Ms. Jewell hasn't been in today," Liora responded, hesitating.
It seemed Mr. Baker was completely unaware of the office gossip.

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......
