"Calliope is so wicked!"
The whispers buzzed around the room, and Portia could feel her blood boiling.
"How is Callie wicked? Lisette is the real snake! She's been scheming against Callie since they were kids! Callie never got any love from their parents. Lisette hogged it all! And she's just an adopted daughter!"
"The Jewell family isn't fond of Calliope, but maybe she should look in the mirror. If no one likes her, there's probably a reason!"
"Exactly, she blames Lisette for everything she does wrong!"
"Lisette's always been the one bending over backward. Do you think it's easy being the adopted one in the Jewell family?"
The crowd's harsh words hit Portia like a slap in the face.
Meanwhile, before Calliope could open her mouth, Zelda jumped in, shielding Lisette with a fierce look. "Calliope, enough is enough! It's Lisette's birthday. Do you have to ruin it before all these guests?"
"Calliope, that's enough!" Valerian interrupted, his expression stern. "We're not getting rid of Lisette. She's like family to us!"
"Calliope, it's you who should leave," Ulysses said with a hint of exasperation, glaring at her. "You have no right to force Lisette out!"
"Is that so?" Calliope locked eyes with Ulysses, a challenge in her gaze. "I'm the one who should leave?"
"That's right! You contribute nothing to our family and are always picking on Lisette. None of us like you!"
"Oh." Calliope nodded, taking it all in.

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......
