But she did mention it wasn’t a hundred percent certain—there's always a risk. There might be risks, but maybe she wasn’t giving it her all either.
Horatio figured no one really knew Calliope, especially not how she felt right now. She was the one calling the shots. Maybe she'd even revenged herself on them.
All they could do was try to make amends, but who knew how it would turn out?
After the meeting, Calliope was swamped with company work.
Horatio and Monty, on the other hand, seemed to have had a change of heart. They were all about her, constantly bringing her food and little gifts.
They used to act like she was invisible, but now they were in and out of her office all the time, asking if she needed this or that, all smiles and enthusiasm.
As the day wound down, Monty piped up, "Callie, how about coming home for dinner tonight? It's been ages since the family sat down together for a meal!"
Calliope glanced at Monty, a hint of amusement in her eyes. "Are you sure Zelda’s going to be thrilled to have me over? Coming home isn't out of the question, but maybe talk it over with the family first before you extend the invite."
Gathering her things, she turned to Franco and said, "Ready to go?"
She didn’t pay much attention to Monty and Horatio after that.
Monty looked awkward, stealing a glance at Calliope with some hesitance but ultimately keeping quiet.
Horatio waited until Calliope was out of earshot before turning to Monty. "It's going to take time for her to come around."
"Yeah," Monty sighed. "We really need to talk to your mom. She can't keep holding this grudge against Callie."
"True," Horatio agreed with a frown.

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......
