A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 571
Calliope’s face was calm as she looked at Lisette. “So what?”
“What do you mean, ‘so what’?” Lisette had expected Calliope to snap, maybe get flustered or angry. Instead, Calliope just coolly shot the question right back at her, which only made Lisette’s face tighten in frustration.
“So I’m pathetic, so what?” Calliope shrugged. “You think you’re better off than me? Sure, Zelda dotes on you right now, but what does Zelda even have to give?”
Calliope’s voice was steady, almost bored. “I’m nothing like you. Zelda doesn’t like me, but I have the company. I have my husband’s love. And I have money.”
“The company? If I want it, I take it. If I want to keep it, I keep it. You? You get nothing.”
“Oh, and Monty and the others are always trying to win me over. You know that, right? They don’t love me, but they still try to get on my good side. In fact, I think they’re planning to freeze you out for my sake.”
Calliope gave a little shrug, as if this was all trivial. “Honestly? If anyone here is the pitiful one, it’s you.”
She ticked off the points on her fingers. “You’re broke. Worse, you’re in debt. Nobody at the office even likes you. Who besides Zelda would even bother with you?”
She gave a mock sigh. “So before you waste time worrying about me being pathetic, maybe worry about yourself first.”
Calliope’s words hit like a slap. Lisette just stood there, her face turning a sickly shade of green, staring at Calliope in disbelief.
This wasn’t the Calliope she knew. The old Calliope would just put up with everything, never fighting back, barely saying a word. Lisette was used to being the one dishing out frustration, not receiving it.
“Hey, Valerian, where are you off to? Is that cupcake for someone?” She forced a smile, certain he’d offer it to her if she just asked.
Valerian barely glanced at her. “Oh, this? It’s for Callie. She’s been working her tail off these past few days.”
He gave a casual shrug. “You got work to get back to, right?”
“Yeah, I’m headed there…” she said, forcing another smile. “That cupcake looks delicious. I love those. You’ve got good taste, Valerian.”
She tried to hint, just in case he’d share, or at least remember she liked them, too. After all, Calliope wasn’t the only one who deserved a treat.

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......
