A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 504

"Lance, why don't you take a seat? What kind of coffee do you like? I'll have someone whip up a cup for you," Monty said, trying to sound as accommodating as possible.

Lance shot him a look. "Dude, you are seriously annoying."

He didn't even bother to glance at Monty or the others, keeping his eyes fixed on Calliope instead.

"Hey, Callie, who are these weirdos? Are they your family or something? I never even heard you had family—I figured they were all dead and gone!"

He gave the run-down office a once-over. "Why are you even working at a dump like this?"

"If you’re so into running a company, I could just buy you one, you know!"

"Seriously, just let someone else handle this mess for you and come with me already. Weren’t we supposed to head out together?"

Lance rattled on, barely pausing for breath.

Calliope ignored him, laser-focused on her work.

Finally, without even looking up, she said, "Lance, if you don't shut your mouth, I'm gonna shove a couple of dirty socks in it!"

Lance blinked. He shot upright from his chair.

Turning to Monty and the others, he said, "Alright, you three, come entertain me. I’ve got nothing better to do, and who knows how long Callie’ll be stuck working."

"Absolutely, it's our pleasure!" Monty replied eagerly. He was determined to leave a good impression. If JK Group ever ended up working with the Jewell Group, that’d be a dream come true.

Lance dragged all three of them over to play a game.

"Ever played poker?" he asked, pulling out a deck of cards.
