A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 621
Lisette stared at the message on the nameplate, her eyes practically burning. She looked at Calliope with a mix of annoyance and reluctance, her jaw set, trying to hold back her frustration.
“If it’s not about work, I really don’t see what we need to talk about,” Calliope replied, not even bothering to look up from her paperwork.
Lisette marched right up to Calliope’s desk and stood in front of her, arms crossed. She locked eyes with her for a long, tense moment before finally speaking.
“It was me who reached out to Horatio and the others. Don’t blame them for anything, and don’t make things hard for them,” Lisette said, voice tight but determined. “If you have a problem, take it up with me. They haven’t done anything wrong. It’s all on me.”
Calliope looked up, surprised. This wasn’t like Lisette at all; she was never one to take the blame for anyone else, let alone stand up for someone else in front of her.
Calliope studied her for a second, her curiosity piqued.
“What’s with the sudden compassion?” Calliope drawled. “Shouldn’t you be bragging about it instead? Standing up for them isn’t really your style.”
Lisette’s face fell into a guilty frown. “I don’t even know why they’re so nice to me. Maybe they just like me better, but it’s not their fault. You shouldn’t take it out on them.”
“You’re trying to get under my skin,” Calliope continued, twirling a pen between her fingers. “You think if I go after you, the Jewells will just circle the wagons and protect you even more. So either way, I lose, right?”
Lisette’s lips curled in a sly, almost wicked smile. “Oh, you’d go after me if you could. But you know as well as I do, you can’t win. If you make me the bad guy, they’ll just pull me closer. If you ignore me, you’ll be miserable anyway. Either way, you’re never going to be happy.”
She stood a little taller, her tone triumphant. “Face it, Calliope. They’re back with me now.”

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......
