People all around started whispering and pointing. But honestly, nobody had seen exactly what happened. No one realized that it was this woman who picked a fight with Calliope in the first place.
Since they hadn’t seen anything, everyone just assumed Calliope was bullying her.
After all, the woman on the floor looked like a total mess—her dress soaked in wine, hair stuck to her cheeks, slumped against the side of the table. She’d taken a nasty fall, too, and there was a thin line of blood trickling down her arm from where some glass had cut her.
People are always quick to feel sorry for the underdog. And right now, she looked every bit the damsel in distress.
The woman started sobbing, her voice trembling, “Why would you do this to me? You already stole my boyfriend—how could you be so cruel?”
The woman could sense the crowd’s sympathy shifting toward her, so she upped the waterworks, her tears streaming down her cheeks. She was twisting the truth, plain and simple.
Calliope rolled her eyes. “I stole your boyfriend, huh? Yeah, I pushed you. But as for stealing your boyfriend? Do you even have a boyfriend?”
Calliope was honestly baffled.
Who was this chick? She and Silas were married. When had Silas ever had anything to do with her?
She couldn’t imagine Silas falling for someone like this. He wasn’t an idiot like Gideon, who couldn’t spot trouble if it bit him.
“No! You totally stole my boyfriend!” the woman insisted, her voice rising. “Silas, are you seeing this? She’s bullying me! She threw wine on me and shoved me on purpose!”
She turned, glaring at Silas for support.
Calliope almost wanted to give her a round of applause—she sure knew how to put on a show.
But she was done explaining herself. She shot Silas a look, then asked the woman, “So, he’s your boyfriend, huh?”
“Yes! He’s my man!” the woman snapped, practically stamping her foot. “Silas, do something! She hurt me!”
By now, someone had helped her up, and she stuck out her bleeding arm for Silas to see. “Look! I’m bleeding!”

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......
