A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 1074

“So what now?” Calliope’s voice was steady, her gaze cool.

Jett broke in, the steel in his tone unmistakable. “Callie might not be your blood, but you hurt her all the same—and now you want her to pay your debts? That’s your mess, not hers. Don’t you dare expect Callie to clean it up.”

He turned toward her, his voice softening with warmth. “You don’t need to worry about them anymore. From now on, you’re our daughter. Let us take care of you. Let us love you the way you deserve, spoil you even.”

Calliope studied Jett, the slightest frown etching her brow. “That’s not necessary. I’m doing just fine on my own. I don’t need anyone’s charity or affection.”

She doubted the White family would ever cast Blythe aside. If she went back to them, how would things be any better than they were with the Jewells? At their core, Blythe and Lisette were much the same—except Blythe was even more calculating.

“Callie…” Mrs. White’s voice caught on sorrow. “Are you angry with us, my dear? Is it because we never searched for you, because we only learned you were our daughter just now?”

“Callie, we never meant for any of this to happen,” Mrs. White hurried to say, her words tumbling out in her distress. “After my accident all those years ago, I had amnesia. I forgot I ever had a daughter—forgot you.” She glanced at her husband, voice trembling. “And your father… He truly thought you were dead. Your grandfather hid you away, raised you as the Jewell family's child. Their real daughter, the one born around the same time as you, died. So they let everyone believe you’d taken her place. When your father investigated, he found their daughter’s grave and thought it was yours. He was afraid to tell me, afraid it would be too much for me to handle. That’s why we didn’t look for you. We believed—truly believed—you were gone from this world.”

Mrs. White spoke with desperate sincerity, her eyes pleading for understanding. Calliope listened, and she believed them. But it made little difference; even if she was their biological child, they already had a daughter—one who seemed more convenient, perhaps even more beloved, than the real thing.
