Gideon was out shopping with Yvette, his arms loaded with bags filled with things he had bought for her. As they turned a corner, they suddenly came face to face with Calliope and Portia.
"Well, isn't this just my unlucky day!"
Portia glanced at Yvette before turning her gaze on Gideon. "Mr. Baker, out shopping with your lover? Funny, when you were with our dear Callie, I don't recall you buying her anything. But here you are, showering gifts on your little affair.
But you know what they say, put lipstick on a pig, and it's still a pig. Those clothes don't suit her at all."
Yvette, feeling small, tried to hide behind Gideon as soon as she spotted Calliope.
"Ms. Jewell... you've got it all wrong," Yvette stammered. "Gideon and I aren't like that. On your wedding day, I had a bit of an emergency. I never meant for Gideon to come, I didn't want to disrupt anything. But he was worried, that's why he showed up."
Her eyes darted nervously to Calliope, expecting an outburst from the woman known for her fiery temper. But Calliope appeared remarkably calm, devoid of any anger.
Standing there, Yvette couldn't help but feel a pang of insecurity. Having grown up in a small town, she still carried that sense of being out of place, no matter how she lavishly dressed.
Calliope, however, was different. Despite her humble beginnings, she had the grace and poise of a top-notch starlet, her pale skin flawless, exuding an effortless elegance that Yvette could only dream of.

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......
