Calliope was out of options. If there were any, she sure as hell wouldn’t be standing there in silence.
Lance knew her—if she had a plan, she’d be the first to tell him. She was the Miracle Doctor, after all. She’d fixed things before that no one else could.
If she was quiet now, it only meant one thing—she truly had no idea what to do.
“I’m sorry. I’m doing everything I can to figure something out. But… I think Hudson already told you. His situation is really complicated. It’s moving so fast. I’ve never seen anything like it. The tumors are everywhere. It’s… it’s bad. Some of them are in places you just can’t touch. If they were in better spots, maybe surgery would be an option. But where they are now, trying to operate could just make things worse.”
Guilt flickered across her face. Calliope wished she were better—wished she could just snap her fingers and fix it. But she couldn’t.
“There’s nothing else you can do?” Lance’s voice trembled as he stared at her, desperate. “You’re the Miracle Doctor, right? Aren’t you supposed to have those… those insane treatments? Like, you brought people back from the brink before! Hudson’s still here, he looks fine, doesn’t he? You have a way, right? Callie, tell me you have a way—please, you have to!”
He grabbed her arms, holding on so tight it hurt.
Calliope winced, but didn’t pull away. She just met Lance’s eyes, quiet and steady.
She shook her head. “Right now… I’ve got nothing. But I’ll keep trying, I promise. Still… you need to brace yourself for the worst.”
“Lance, Hudson needs you. You have to be strong for him, okay? If—if there really isn’t any hope, then these are your last days together. You need to think about how you want to spend them.”
“He needs you, and you need him. If there’s no miracle, you have to ask yourself how you’ll live with no regrets. Hudson’s doing what he can in his own way. It’s harsh, I know, but try not to let fear steal what time you’ve got left.”

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......
