His face was strikingly handsome, and there was a devilish smirk playing on his lips.
“Well, well, well, if it isn’t my lifesaver! Long time no see!”
Nigel Howell made his way over to Calliope’s side. “Heard you were dining here, so I just had to drop by and say hello!”
Calliope just blinked at him.
Nigel pulled out the chair next to her, crossing his long legs casually, and raised his wine glass in Monty’s direction.
“Hey there, are the Jewell family folks giving my lifesaver a hard time again? What’s the deal? Do you think my lifesaver looks like an easy target? How exactly are you planning to mess with her, huh?”
Nigel’s presence was so commanding that the entire private dining room seemed to shrink a little under his gaze.
With just a few words, he had Monty and his group looking a little pale.
Monty quickly plastered on a smile and said, “Mr. Howell, you must be joking. Callie is my daughter. Why would we ever bully her? We’re here because she wanted to dine at this club.”
Nigel’s gaze settled on Calliope. “My lifesaver wants to eat here, and she needs you to bring her? I doubt that.”
Monty was momentarily taken aback.
“If my lifesaver wants to dine here, she only needs to give me a call! Besides, doesn’t she have a husband who frequents this club? Come to think of it, my lifesaver seems to have some pretty deep connections here too!”
Nigel’s eyes sparkled with amusement as he looked at Calliope. He was clearly enjoying himself.
His words left Monty at a loss for what to say.
Horatio, standing to the side, chimed in, “Mr. Howell, this is just a family matter. No need for you to trouble yourself. We’re just having dinner. I’ll make sure to toast you later!”

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......
