"Why don't we just take the photos ourselves? I mean, she's not even your biological daughter. Or is it that you all don't want to take a picture with me? You only want photos with Lisette?"
"If that's the case, forget it. It's not like I've been in any of these pictures for the past twenty years anyway."
She gazed down at her plate, picking idly at the mashed potatoes, as if she couldn’t be bothered to continue the conversation.
Her demeanor made the others at the table tense up. Maybe she had a point. They’d taken family photos with Lisette before when Calliope wasn’t around. So, why not take them now without Lisette? After all, Lisette was adopted. She’d been in plenty of pictures already.
"Alright, alright, let's do it!" Monty chimed in, trying to smooth things over. "When do you want to take them? You decide!"
Zelda shot a chilly glance at Calliope, clearly wanting to say something, but Monty nudged her to keep quiet.
"Let's do it after dinner. I'll call a friend over to take them for us," Calliope suggested, looking directly at Monty and the others.
"Uh..."
"What? Can't do it?" Calliope raised an eyebrow. "Fine, then. It's not like we have to. We aren't exactly on speaking terms anyway!"
"No, no, it's fine. We'll do it whenever you say," Monty quickly agreed, trying not to rile her up. After all, with her connections and influence, it was best not to make her an enemy. It's just a family photo, nothing to get worked up about. It's not like it'd cost anyone an arm or a leg.
Horatio and the others nodded in agreement.

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......
