She seemed worried about Calliope but was thrilled inside. The more Calliope ticked off that guy, the better. She loved a good spectacle and didn't mind the chaos.
"Hey, Mr. Horatio, isn't that your sister over there? Aren't you going to step in and help her out?" Someone called over to Horatio and his group.
"We only have one sister, and she's here with us. That woman? I’ve never seen her before," Ulysses scoffed, purposely raising his voice so everyone around could hear.
A ripple of whispers and chuckles spread through the crowd.
Calliope and Portia heard it too.
Especially Calliope. She knew Ulysses was making sure she heard him. She lifted her eyes and glanced toward his way. Her expression was calm, her eyes indifferent, almost icy.
Ulysses felt a weird twinge of discomfort at her gaze but stubbornly raised an eyebrow at her, like he was daring her.
‘Go on. Beg us for help.’ He seemed to challenge silently.
But Calliope was unfazed. She looked at them as if they were strangers.
Just then, Gideon appeared out of nowhere, positioning himself where Calliope could clearly see him. He surveyed the scene, assuming she'd turn to someone for help now that the Jewell family wasn’t backing her. He wanted her to come to him for assistance.
Calliope did see Gideon, but she didn’t react at all. She didn’t even spare him a second glance, as if he were invisible.
"Fine, I'm calling the cops now! Let's see how you handle that!" the man shouted, pulling out his phone to dial 911.

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......
