“I’m gonna kick Calliope out and get with Silas myself, just you watch!” Yvette shot Gideon a smug look as she spoke, practically glowing with confidence.
“Gideon, relax. If I ever hit it big, I’ll remember to thank you. If it wasn’t for you being my stepping stone, I’d never have gotten close to Silas in the first place!”
Just thinking about the possibility of Silas coming to see her made her giddy. She’d have to find a way to reel him in somehow.
Yvette was always pretty sure of her looks, and she knew men are at their most reckless when they’re disappointed. She’d even bought a little something special—a kind of “magic potion” if you will. Just a few drops of it in the room would have Silas wrapped around her finger, she was certain.
At first, Gideon didn’t quite understand what she was saying. He was used to Yvette claiming she had feelings for him, so hearing her suddenly talk about going after Silas left him totally stunned. It took him a good minute to really process what she’d said.
He stared at Yvette, disbelief all over his face. “What did you just say? You want to seduce Uncle Silas?”
“Yvette, are you out of your mind? You’re my wife, and you want to go after my uncle? What the hell is wrong with you?”
He shot her a look up and down, as if seeing her for the first time.
“You really think Silas would go for you? Do you think he’s blind? Or just plain stupid?”
The more he looked at her, the more ridiculous the whole thing seemed. He realized now that Yvette had never really cared about him; she’d only been with him because she thought it’d get her closer to his family’s money. Now that she saw he had nothing, she was ready to jump ship and set her sights on Silas.
Calliope was prettier, more capable, and came from a better family, but somehow Yvette thought she could compete?
Gideon almost burst out laughing.
...
Meanwhile, Calliope didn’t even consider Yvette a threat. She’d already left the hospital, not giving Yvette’s antics a second thought.
But while Calliope didn’t care, someone else clearly did. Silas called just as she was heading home.
“Where are you?” he asked, his voice tense.
“I stopped by the hospital,” Calliope replied lightly.
“You haven’t left yet?” Silas pressed, a frown in his tone. “What were you doing there? Did you see Gideon?”

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......
