Since Lisette first came to the Jewell family, she couldn’t stand Calliope. It was as if Calliope had everything handed to her on a silver platter while she had to claw her way up from the bottom.
Back then, she was a shadow of herself—timid and insecure, always afraid to accept the kindness of the Jewell family. She constantly wanted to prove herself, often helping with chores, desperate for approval.
But Calliope was different. She was the apple of everyone's eye, adored by her brothers and showered with love and kindness. How they doted on Calliope made her green with envy.
She wanted to snatch all of that for herself, especially after overhearing the maids gossiping.
They’d say she didn’t fit the image of a proper lady, that you could tell she came from humble beginnings. A true lady, they said, was like Calliope—graceful, taking everything in stride without the need to prove her worth by doing odd jobs.
Those words pierced her heart like nails.
She began to covet everything Calliope had. And she noticed that if she played the part of the reluctant girl who admired yet didn’t dare to ask, they would give her Calliope’s things anyway. They’d say Calliope had enough, while she had nothing and deserved some kindness.
Later, she learned that by feigning obedience, she could provoke Calliope into losing her temper, and the family would then rally around the more "well-behaved" her.
Then came the rumor that Calliope was a jinx. It delighted Lisette even more. Calliope was the cursed one, while she was the lucky charm. Naturally, they treated her better.
She wished Calliope would vanish so she could bask in the family's undivided love. But Calliope lingered, despite being bullied so cruelly. She continued to cherish her brothers and go out of her way to support them.
That only fueled her jealousy. Calliope seemed to flourish no matter the adversity, blooming into something beautiful.

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 !!!...
