In the diner, Big Guy and the others were extremely grateful. They started to try on the gifts one by one.
There was a shiny watch, a sleek helmet, and a dapper tie, each more expensive than the last. They were worth thousands if not tens of thousands, not the kind of stuff you'd expect to see in a cozy little diner like this.
While trying them on, they were showing them off to Calliope.
Calliope just smiled and told them how great they looked.
"Do you think this suits me, Calliope?" one of them asked, adjusting the watch on his wrist.
"Absolutely," she replied with a grin, her eyes sparkling with genuine delight.
Across the street, Horatio and his brothers stood silently, peering inside. They watched Calliope laugh and joke, her face relaxed and joyful. It had been so long since they'd seen her smile like that.
Every time they got together, it was always about Lisette, always ending in some heated arguments. Calliope would refuse to apologize, growing more distant with each confrontation. And now, she rarely smiled around them, her innocence and warmth a distant memory.
Through the glass, they saw a glimpse of the little girl who had first joined the Jewell family, who was shy but endearing. As the youngest and only daughter, her three brothers doted on her. They'd wanted to give her everything and protect her. Yes, they had been good to her once.
But she was always competing with Lisette and causing trouble. Lisette was the picture of perfection—obedient, bright, and successful. On the other hand, Calliope was rebellious, getting expelled, chasing after rich men...
It was her fault. She deserved it!

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......
