A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 978
Calliope knew Uriah wasn’t wrong. That didn't keep her from kicking him hard in the shin, then—before he could recover—slapping him across the face, sharp and fast.
“That slap is from Portia, and the kick’s from me. Think of it as an advance payment,” she said, her voice icy. “We'll deal with the rest once Mavis pulls through.”
“If she doesn’t, then you’d better be ready to keep her company.”
Her expression was frigid, all business, all fury. She told Uriah to lead the way and fill her in on every detail, especially about Mavis’s current state.
“The bullet’s still inside her,” Uriah admitted, voice tight. “She took three—two were removed, but the third’s lodged too close to her heart. My doctors wouldn’t risk it, they’re not confident enough to operate. And… there are signs the bullet might have been laced with a toxin. There’s severe sepsis setting in, too. There’s some infection too.”
“I’ve done everything I can, given her the best care possible, but my team just isn’t skilled enough, and she’s too weak to move. I was afraid she wouldn’t survive the journey if we tried, so I had no choice but to call you here.”
Calliope shot him a lethal glare. “You wait until now to tell me? There’s still a bullet, and she’s been poisoned? Why didn’t you mention this earlier?” She almost laughed—but it was all anger.
“We didn’t know at first,” Uriah stammered. “I didn’t want to weigh you down with more than you could handle—or put a target on your back.”
He hesitated, then asked, “Didn’t Silas come with you? Was your trip here alright?”
“It was a nightmare,” Calliope answered coldly. “My team’s somewhere behind me, I don’t even know if they’re safe. You’d better send your people to rendezvous with mine. Silas had his hands full, I couldn’t reach him. I came myself.”

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......
