A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 375

Fleur never imagined Calliope would see right through her and even notice her headache with only a glance.

Fleur looked at her with a hint of suspicion. Could Calliope really be that good?

But Fleur wouldn’t admit it. She shook her head and said, "I'm not having a headache. You've got it wrong."

Verity glanced around and chuckled, "Oh, Fleur, are you afraid of being called out? If you have a headache, admit it. Planning two weddings in one year for your son isn't easy. If I were in your shoes, I'd feel more than a headache. I might have passed out from the stress!"

Fleur rolled her eyes, not bothering to respond. Verity would always say things that could drive her up the wall.

The truth was that Fleur did have a headache, especially when dealing with Yvette's family. They were exhausting, constantly calling to demand this and that and going on about how many people they were bringing to the wedding, expecting her to prepare.

She dreaded the thought of Yvette's parents showing up at the wedding. It would be such an embarrassment. But they were Yvette's parents, and it was a tricky situation to handle.

"Callie, could you help me out with some acupuncture? I trust you!" Verity clasped Calliope's hand, looking at her eagerly.

Calliope nodded, withdrawing her hand to pull out her acupuncture needles, then gave Verity a few careful pricks.

"Feels a bit warm," Verity remarked.

"That's normal. Give it a bit, and you'll feel much better," Calliope assured her. "Your neck muscles are quite tense. You should try to move around more often."

"I do tend to hunch over a lot and don't move enough," Verity admitted, "Lately, my neck's been getting stiffer and more painful. I've seen a few doctors, but they all say there's nothing they can do except for me to move more."

Verity grumbled, "But our Callie here knows what she's doing. Just a few needles, and I feel so much better!"
