"Oh, by the way, someone seemed pretty interested in the whole 'who's better between me and Lisette' debate. Since there's curiosity floating around, I feel like we should probably settle that, right?"
"Once I'm done eating, we can chat about it. Hey, we're all here, might as well enjoy the show, right? And there's so much good food. It'd be a shame to let it go to waste!"
Calliope spoke as she continued munching on her plate of sliders and fries.
After a bit, she finally felt full and stood up with a leisurely stretch.
She glanced down at Lisette, who was still on her knees, unsure whether to stand or stay put, looking a little flustered.
It seemed like Calliope was about to do something unexpected.
"Calliope, let's just leave it. It's my fault for making everyone misunderstand you! Please don't be mad, okay? I’m really sorry!"
Lisette swallowed nervously, casting a wary glance at Calliope, a sense of foreboding creeping in.
Was she about to make a fool of herself?
"Apologize?" Calliope shook her head. "You haven't done anything wrong, so why apologize to me?"
She looked around at the gathered crowd. "If you apologize, people might start badmouthing me even more, right? Let's hold off on the apologies. We’ve got some things to settle first. People need to see who you really are before a proper apology can happen."
With a sly smile, Calliope walked towards the stage in the banquet hall, all eyes following her.
As she ascended the steps, the crowd instinctively parted, creating a path for her. Though whispers and murmurs continued, they were much quieter now, overshadowed by a strange sense of anticipation.
"What's Calliope planning to do?"
"What did she mean by all that?"

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......
