Nigel’s mouth twitched as he nodded. “So it was you.”
Calliope glanced at Leland, whose guileless face made her pity Nigel even more.
“You really have it tough.”
Damien was done arguing—bickering with Leland only made him feel just as dim-witted.
“You all look like you have plenty to say, but you just stand there,” Leland complained, frustration clear on his face. “If you’ve got something to say, spit it out! I can’t read minds, you know.”
“Who gave you the apple?” Nigel asked wearily, rubbing the bridge of his nose.
“A girl did,” Leland replied. “Is there something wrong with it?”
He was still oblivious, slow on the uptake.
“Nigel Howell, for the first time, I actually feel sorry for you,” Damien said, shaking his head. “You must have a peculiar talent for suffering, keeping someone like him around. Are you just asking to be poisoned?”
“Are you insulting me?” Leland protested, frowning at Damien.
“More or less. You really don’t get it, do you?” Damien shrugged. “It’s tragic, honestly.”
“I’m not tragic! What are you talking about?”
“I meant your boss is the unlucky one, stuck with you.” Damien gave a helpless sigh.
“I think the apple you gave Mr. Howell was probably poisoned,” Calliope said, pinning Leland with a look.
Leland froze. “My apple was poisoned?”
“Was it just one apple? And you just gave it to Mr. Howell, no questions asked?” Calliope pressed.

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......
