"Not to mention how much money we're saving, the time we're spending helping her wrap these wedding favors could have made us a decent amount of cash!"
Fleur furiously packed the wedding flowers, her expression darker than the stormy skies. They'd already bought them, and there was no returning them, so here they were, stuck wrapping them up.
Yvette had really pushed her to the limit this time. The nerve of that woman!
Fleur would have loved nothing more than to chuck all those blasted flowers out the window. But Yvette, being the scatterbrained fool she was, had gone and brought them to the old family estate, roping Verity and the rest into helping.
Verity, always one to enjoy a bit of schadenfreude at Fleur's expense, was only too happy to lend a hand.
"Fleur, your daughter-in-law sure is a genius," Verity chuckled, her eyes dancing with mischief.
Even Calliope was stunned by Yvette's antics. The Baker family certainly didn't need to pinch pennies like this. But then again, Gideon probably funneled a fair bit of cash to the Jansen family since getting hitched to Yvette. That clan was notoriously difficult to deal with. Maybe they'd run out of funds themselves. Fleur's dislike for Yvette was no secret, and she was in no rush to dip into her own pockets for Yvette’s sake.
Calliope, on the other hand, managed to keep a straight face, offering only a slight smile. "As long as Yvette is happy, it's only right for us aunties to pitch in."
"Oh, absolutely, we're always happy to help!" Verity interrupted, grinning from ear to ear.
"Come on, Callie, sit with me. It's more comfortable over here," Verity beckoned, patting the seat beside her.
Calliope joined her and helped wrap the flowers. With everyone hustling together, they finally got the job done.
Once the servants whisked the flowers away, the group settled down for an afternoon tea, chatting about life and the latest gossip.

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......
