A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 455

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.
