A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 1023

“She’s incredible!”

The awe in the room was palpable as everyone stared at Calliope, as if they were gazing at something divine. Her skill wasn’t just impressive—it was almost supernatural. Even if they could comprehend her technique, none of them could hope to match her speed; she worked with a practiced ease, as though she could conduct a surgery flawlessly with her eyes closed. It was hard to believe someone so young possessed such world-class expertise.

Because Calliope moved so swiftly, the operation ended ahead of schedule, despite an unexpected complication along the way. When the surgical team finally stepped out of the operating room, Silas was already waiting just outside. He looked like he’d been there for hours, his body tense and his mind wound tight with worry.

Maybe someone wanted to lighten the mood—or perhaps just tease Silas a little—because the lead surgeon at the front deliberately adopted a downcast expression as he exited.

“How did it go?” Silas asked, immediately picking up on the somber look. His heart lurched in his chest. “It wasn’t a success?”

Of course he knew there was always a chance of failure, but he desperately didn’t want that outcome—not for the patient, and not for Calliope. He was painfully aware that, ever since Calliope had lost Hudson Howell and her own grandfather, she’d grown wary of practicing medicine, haunted by the fear of not being good enough, not being strong enough. The last thing he wanted was for this operation to deal her another blow.

The lead surgeon heaved a sigh and said grimly, “Yes, there was an unexpected complication. The patient suffered massive bleeding.”

“We never anticipated her condition would take such a sudden turn,” another doctor chimed in, matching the heavy tone.

Calliope played along as well, dropping her head with a quiet sigh.

Silas looked at her, his heart in his throat. “It… failed?” he asked.

“No one can predict an accident… I tried to prepare myself…” he managed, forcing steadiness into his voice.

He crossed over to Calliope, his tone gentle, his eyes filled with concern. “Callie, don’t blame yourself. This wasn’t your fault. I know you would never have wanted this to happen.”
