"He's trying to make it sound good, but isn't it obvious? He just wants to edge out everyone from the Baker family so he can rename the Baker Group to something else, right?"
Damien just sighed, remaining silent.
Mr. Myers, well, he never really cared much for the Baker Group. Sure, he was managing it, but honestly, the Baker Group was just some small fry in his eyes.
He only took it on to repay a favor to Eamon. Otherwise, with the kind of successful companies under Mr. Myers’ belt, why would he bother with the Baker Group? How else could he have become the richest man in Capitalton?
Damien looked at Gideon, thinking this kid was as naive as they come.
"If that's how you want to see it, you'll regret it," Damien said with a resigned sigh. "Last chance, Mr. Baker. Are you leaving, or do we have to do this by the book?"
"I'm not leaving! If you've got the guts, just try and take me down!" Gideon stood his ground stubbornly.
Damien shrugged, giving a nod to the security team around him. The guards advanced on Gideon, and soon enough, he was getting a heavy-handed beating.
Gideon hadn’t expected them to go so hard. In the pouring rain, he ended up looking like he’d just lost a fight with a meat tenderizer.
"Mr. Baker, we've held back considerably. Now, are you going to leave?" Damien asked politely after the ordeal.
Gideon was on his knees, panting with anger. There was no way he could take on a group, and even one-on-one with Damien, he wouldn’t stand a chance.
As he looked up, he saw Calliope standing quietly on the balcony, watching him. Her eyes were cold, almost regal, and she seemed so distant, like a princess surveying her realm.
Gideon felt like a mere subject, unable to get close to her.
“Callie!” he pleaded. “I’m in pain!”

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......
