A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 252

She had found a way, albeit a bit risky, but she was pretty confident about it. After discussing it with Upton, she treated Baber in earnest.

Calliope spent an entire day tending to Baber and administering medicine and herbal baths. It was a long day from dawn till dusk. Baber had fallen into a deep sleep by evening.

Calliope stayed by his bedside, observing his condition. It seemed everything was going smoothly.

“Did it work?” Upton had been there the whole day, watching without interrupting and observing Calliope as she worked her magic.

“Yeah, unless something unexpected happens, Baber’s issues should be resolved,” Calliope sighed with relief. “Tomorrow, he should wake up as lively as ever, and you won’t have to worry anymore!”

“Thank you so much,” Upton said earnestly, pulling out a check and offering it to Calliope. “Consider it Baber’s medical fee. Take it, please.”

Calliope hesitated. “Come on. Baber’s my godson. I can’t take money for treating him!”

“I’ll feel uneasy if I don’t give it to you.”

“Are you just swimming in money?” Calliope teased, shaking her head. “Keep your money. You know I’m more interested in those fascinating artifacts you collect. Just give me one of those sometime!”

“Alright then.” Upton tucked the check away.

They both sat down and shared a cup of coffee.

“If Baber’s alright, I’ll take him home tomorrow. Is there anything he needs to be mindful of?” Upton inquired.

“I’ll send you a list on your phone. Baber will need to continue with some medication for a while,” Calliope explained. “Once he finishes it, he’ll be just like any other kid.”

“He’ll be thrilled when he wakes up,” Upton chuckled. “To him, you’ve always been the most amazing person in the world.”

“Well, I am pretty amazing,” Calliope quipped, sipping her coffee. “By the way, have you done anything to the Jewell Group lately?”

Upton smiled softly. He said gratefully, “Without you, there wouldn’t be a Baber.”

Calliope nodded. “It’s a shame that I could only save Baber. I couldn’t do anything for your wife.”

She sighed, remembering how helpless she felt, wanting to help but unable to do so.

Mentioning his late wife brought a shadow of sadness to Upton’s eyes.

Both of them fell silent and were lost in their thoughts until Silas walked in. He was carrying some food, something for Baber and Calliope’s favorites too.

“How’s Baber?” he asked, knowing Calliope had used a slightly risky method for the treatment.

“Everything went very smoothly,” Upton replied, looking up. “He’s asleep now.”
