"Yvette, you little sneak! How could you keep your wedding a secret from me? I heard you're marrying into the wealthy Baker family of Capitalton. What, are you scared I'd ask you for money, so you decided to keep me in the dark?"
Trevor Langley burst in, grabbing a fistful of Yvette's hair as he shouted.
Yvette's head jerked back, and she let out a shriek of pain. Tears sprang to her eyes. "Dad, that hurts! Dad... no, I wasn't trying to hide it from you! I just hadn't gotten around to telling you yet!"
"Hadn't gotten around to it? What nonsense! You just think I'm an embarrassment! You invited everyone else but left me out! What do you take me for?
You are my damn child, remember that! Without me, you'd be nothing! I heard you gave your mom's side some money, but nothing for me? What, is she your real parent and I'm not?"
Yvette's eyes were red with pain, and she cried out, "I'll give you the money, just please let go! You're going to rip my scalp off!"
Calliope watched, feeling her own scalp tingle in sympathy. Yvette's father was a real piece of work. But she found it amusing in a way. Neither Yvette nor her father were saints, so watching them fight wasn't exactly a tragedy.
Trevor finally released Yvette's hair, pull over a chair and plopped into it, picking up a toothpick to idly clean his teeth.
Fleur was speechless, her expression one of shock. What kind of family was Yvette from?
"Trevor, what are you doing here causing trouble? This is Yvette's big day, and you're just making a mess!" Verena shouted.
Trevor sneered at her. "Why shouldn't I be involved in my daughter's affairs? And don't think I don't know about you pocketing her money! We haven't settled that score yet!"
Eamon put a hand to his forehead, clearly taken aback by the family. He glanced over at Calliope for help.

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......
