Linnea glared at her plate in sullen silence. She fought to steady her breathing as she whispered, “No gaining weight. That’s right. I can’t afford to get fat—if I do, I’ll never measure up to the others.”
Sylvia reached over and gave her a comforting pat. “Skip the carbs, drink plenty of water. Real stars live on nothing but air, you know?”
“Exactly. I’m a goddess!” Linnea straightened, pushing away her fork and the half-eaten duck leg. “And goddesses don't do carbs.”
Sylvia offered a wry, understanding smile. Their leading lady simply had no willpower when it came to food—especially when she was angry. As fierce as Linnea could be, her temper nearly always turned inward; she rarely lashed out, preferring to stew until she ended up causing herself more harm than anyone else. She wasn’t a bad person, just… exceedingly dramatic.
Scooping a bit of salad onto Linnea’s plate, Sylvia said gently, “Here, have some veggies. You need the energy—but maybe go light on the meat, okay?”
Linnea eyed the greens with distaste. “Why do you always treat me like a rabbit?”
Sylvia grinned. “You’re not a rabbit—you’re more like a sheep. Sheep eat grass and get by just fine, don’t they? Besides, grass won’t make you fat!”
Linnea shot Sylvia a glare. “Being in show business is impossible. I don’t want to do this anymore!”
Sylvia didn’t miss a beat. “If you give up acting, you’ll never be able to afford meat again.”
“Do you have to be quite so blunt?” Linnea huffed, turning her gaze on Sylvia. “You just love having the last word, don’t you?”
Sylvia chuckled dryly. “I’m only telling the truth, and it’s for your own good! You’re an award-winning actress—a natural-born star! You’ve got talent, beauty, the whole package. You were made for this life.”
Linnea rolled her eyes, stabbing a cucumber. “Yeah, sure. For this so-called gift of fate, I guess some lettuce won’t kill me.”
While she nibbled grimly at her salad, Linnea’s glare shifted toward Calliope. “But they won't get away with this. Sneaking around like that—just who do they think they are?”
“Go on, expose them,” Sylvia said wearily.

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......
