"Yeah, I was just kidding around. You were so tense just now, I almost believed you'd actually cleaned out the company!"
Calliope chuckled lightly. "So, what's it gonna be? Don’t agree? Fine, I'll head out then."
Just as she was about to stand up, Monty made a decision and said, "Alright, I'll give it to you!"
"Then send the money over," Calliope said, looking up.
"Are you really that eager?" Monty asked, clearly indignant.
"I'm just worried you'll back out," Calliope shrugged. "This is for my emotional distress, and right now you're willing to pay. Who knows, you might change your mind later!"
Monty pulled out his phone, ready to transfer the money to Calliope.
Zelda grabbed Monty's arm, glancing at Calliope with hesitation. She wasn't too keen on handing over the money to Calliope.
With a bit of suspicion, Zelda asked, "If we give you this money, will you really stay with Gideon?"
"Zelda, are you trying to sell your daughter?"
Calliope raised her eyebrows. "If you don't want to give it, that's fine. I'll leave, how's that?"
She made a move to get up.
Monty panicked. "Okay, I'm transferring it now!"
With a few quick taps, Monty sent the money to Calliope, looking as if it physically hurt him.
Lisette, standing nearby, couldn't help but feel a pang of regret herself. Five hundred thousand dollars wasn't exactly pocket change to her, and certainly not to the Jewell family.

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......
