Nigel’s expression was frosty, his whole demeanor issuing a clear warning: if Jett intended to try anything, he’d have to go through him first.
“I thought you didn’t get along with Silas,” Jett said with a quizzical brow, “and yet you seem awfully concerned about his wife. Why do you care so much?”
Nigel’s face hardened. “Mr. White, let’s not jump to conclusions. There’s nothing more between us than a friendship. If you’re looking for specifics—she once saved my life. That’s it. The most you could say is that she’s my benefactor, and I’m the man she helped—nothing more.”
“Of course, if she and Silas ever split, maybe things would be different,” he added, shrugging with affected indifference, “but for now, nothing’s changed.”
“Alright, I get it,” Jett replied after sizing Nigel up for a beat. He was about to follow after Calliope, but Nigel clamped a strong hand down on his shoulder.
“Mr. White, why are you following her?” Nigel demanded. “You’re not planning to hassle a young woman, are you? She’s just an up-and-comer, hardly your equal.”
“You’re getting the wrong idea, I just want to ask her a few questions,” Jett replied.
“I can handle losing,” he added, glancing thoughtfully at Nigel. “Seems like she’s pretty well-liked, though. You and Silas can’t stand each other, but you both get along with her. Just earlier, she was having dinner with that whole group, and they all seemed to think highly of her.”
“So what?” Nigel shot back. “She’s decent, so people like her. Simple as that.”
“Fair enough—no hidden agenda, I just think she’s impressive. And interesting,” Jett said. “Nigel, let me go—I need to speak with her. You have nothing to worry about, I’m not going to hurt her or cause her any trouble.”

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......
