A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 910

Lisette's face flushed with humiliation. She could feel that Jett and his wife disliked her. After a moment of hesitation, she excused herself from Blythe and went to play at another table.

Blythe, however, remained, looking at Jett with a wounded expression.

“Dad, how could you lose to her?”

Jett gently smoothed her hair and said softly, “Blythe, she is genuinely skilled. Not just better than you, but better than me as well. I gave it my all, but I still lost to her.”

“When you’re outmatched, you have to accept defeat.”

“We don’t use our power to bully people. A loss is a loss. You can work hard to improve, but you shouldn't hold a grudge against your opponent. I taught you that when you were little—what happens at the card table is a matter of mutual consent.”

“In my opinion, this Calliope is quite impressive. You have no need to make an enemy of her.”

“That friend of yours, Lisette, on the other hand… I don’t think she’s a good influence. You should be careful around her,” Jett warned.

But his words fell on deaf ears. Blythe only grew more sullen and angry. Her father had always doted on her, never lecturing her like this. But now, all he did was lecture her, and all while praising Calliope.

In his eyes, Calliope was the good one, even though she had been the one to humiliate Blythe. He saw Calliope as impressive, yet he questioned the friend she had chosen.

Although Blythe didn't truly consider Lisette a friend—merely a tool—the criticism still stung.

“Alright, you’re grown now. I won’t interfere with your friendships, but consider it a word of caution,” Jett said, patting her shoulder. “Go on and have fun if you’d like.”

Blythe nodded, a storm of frustration brewing inside her.
