"Valerian, seriously, stop acting like you're my life coach. Have you ever put food on my table, or clothes on my back, or even given me a dime for pocket money?"
"I'm your brother! I'm just trying to look out for you!" Valerian retorted, frustration evident in his voice.
"Are you really looking out for me? Or are you just worried I'll embarrass you and the family?"
Calliope's eyes flashed with a cold defiance. “You’ve never considered me your sister, so quit minding my business.”
“What’s with the attitude, Calliope?”
Valerian was taken aback by her bluntness, especially in front of his friends. She had been all smiles with Norton earlier, but now she was making a scene.
Calliope glanced at him dismissively before turning on her heel and walking away, leaving Valerian simmering with anger.
His friends, who had been joking around, fell silent, sensing the tension and couldn’t bring themself to interfere.
"Hey, Valerian, you okay?" Lisette asked gently. "Do you think it's safe for her to be alone out there? Maybe you should give her a ride."
"Why bother? If she gets into trouble, that's on her!"
Valerian huffed. He had half a mind to follow her, but Lisette's words made him reconsider. At least Lisette seemed to understand him.
If Calliope didn't want his help, then fine. She could deal with whatever came her way on her own.
He couldn't fathom what had gotten into her lately. Everything had been fine, and now she was acting out. She had turned down marrying Gideon, and her relationship with Silas was a mess. Did she think she was above everyone else?
He was sure she'd come running back when reality hit her.
She always claimed he was unfair to her, but she never considered that Lisette was better than her in every way, and she had even saved his life once!

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......
