Zelda stared Calliope down, her tone icy. Her face was practically stormy; she couldn’t stand the sight of Calliope. The woman’s very presence grated on her nerves.
Honestly, Zelda just wished Calliope would take the hint and leave, let the family have a peaceful evening together for once.
“Oh, so you don’t want me to help your oldest son with his leg anymore? Or maybe you’re hoping your precious company goes under?” Calliope shot back, her voice cool but edged with a smirk.
“Looks like Mr. Jewell forgot to mention that, huh? The company’s practically hanging by a thread—and guess whose expertise it’s relying on? And your son’s leg? Yeah, he needs me too. He didn’t tell you he actually invited me for dinner tonight, did he?”
Calliope raised an eyebrow. “So, you want me to leave?”
“I mean… I wouldn’t say no…” Zelda’s voice was tight, her eyes narrowing. She suddenly remembered—Monty had said Calliope was coming, and even told her to whip up something Calliope liked. The sheer thought made her bristle. Why should she go out of her way for this woman, when even seeing her was a headache?
Still fuming, Zelda didn’t bother to argue further. She spun on her heel and marched back inside.
Seeing that Zelda had finally dropped it, Calliope strolled right in after her, perfectly at ease.
“Oh, and by the way, I’m not just here for dinner. I’m planning to stay a few days,” Calliope announced, flashing a sly smile at Zelda. “Didn’t you all set up a guest room for me? Wouldn’t want your efforts to go to waste.”

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......
