"I still haven’t checked in on Lance’s older brother yet. I’ll know when I can come back once I see how he’s doing," Calliope said, brushing a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
She added, “Anyway, with Franco around, the company’s in safe hands. Just as long as you all don’t mess things up while I’m gone!”
She knew her family all too well—the Jewell clan wasn’t exactly a pool of business geniuses.
Horatio had some talent for running things, but after his accident left him wheelchair-bound, he’d lost a lot of his spark. Honestly, it was a tricky situation.
Franco, on the other hand, was the reliable one. She’d left the company in his care before, and things had always run smoothly.
Monty frowned, concern creasing his forehead. “So, what about your brother’s leg? I mean, not to rush you or anything, but he really should get treatment as soon as possible. Do you have a plan? And, uh… there’s also the matter with Lisette.”
He shot Calliope a nervous glance, half-expecting her to snap at the mention of Lisette.
But Calliope didn’t lose her temper. She just gave him a cool look. “It’s not like I’m not coming back.”
Horatio jumped in quickly, “No worries, Callie. There’s no rush on my end. You take care of your stuff first—it’s more important.”
“Yeah, you do what you need to do,” Valerian chimed in, glancing at her. “Are you sure you want to travel overseas alone? I could go with you if you want.”
Calliope gave Valerian a surprised look. There was a time she’d have wanted him by her side. But, every time she’d needed him, he’d been off with Lisette. Eventually, she’d stopped asking. She'd learned to get by on her own.
She just shrugged. “No need. I’ve got it covered. Lance has already sorted everything out.”

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......
