After thinking it over, Calliope drafted a message to Silas, summarizing how she'd ended up saving Nigel. She left out the part where she and Nigel had drinks together at the bar—and especially how Silas’s name had come up.
Yawning as she hit send, Calliope realized exhaustion was finally catching up with her. She washed up, crawled into bed, and didn’t stir until morning.
When she finally got up, Portia was still fast asleep. A knock at the door startled her out of her thoughts. Opening it, she found a few friends from yesterday’s private room gathering clustered in the hallway.
“Breakfast?” one of them invited.
“Plus, maybe we can talk more about the specifics of that project?” Mr. Larson chimed in.
“Sure,” Calliope said, glancing at Portia, who was still deep in sleep. She scribbled a quick note and left it by her pillow before following the others down to the restaurant.
They settled in at a table and quickly picked up where their previous conversation had left off. Calliope mostly listened, chiming in only to offer a crucial suggestion when the group hit an impasse.
Partway through the meal, Jett and his wife entered the dining room. Calliope almost automatically glanced in their direction.
Jett and his wife noticed her as well—and the group she was sitting with. Both of them looked genuinely surprised.
Jett gave Calliope a polite nod, a silent greeting. Calliope just met his gaze coolly, her expression unreadable.
Jett was left slightly stunned, unable to quell the sense that he’d unintentionally gotten on the young woman’s bad side. She seemed downright indifferent, if not actively unfriendly.
After they took their seats, Jett couldn’t help but voice his confusion, “Darling, did you notice that? I get the feeling Ms. Jewell isn’t too fond of us.”

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 !!!...
