Lisette’s dramatic warnings left Zelda a little uneasy. She glanced at Valerian. “You don’t think anything’s going to happen to Horatio, right? Calliope wouldn’t do anything reckless, would she? She’s always so unreasonable… Of all the people to be ‘the Miracle Doctor,’ why did it have to be her?”
Valerian shot her a look. “Mom, you’re overthinking this!”
Then he looked at Lisette. “I really don’t think Callie would go that far. She’s our sister, after all. No matter how mad she gets, she wouldn’t actually try to hurt her own brother. This isn’t a joke. If Callie wanted to get back at us, she wouldn’t pick now to do it.”
“I just worry about Horatio,” Lisette said, her voice small and wounded.
“She’s not wrong to worry,” Zelda muttered. “Who knows what Calliope’s really up to…”
But she stopped herself, not wanting to make Horatio more anxious.
When they reached the doors to the operating room, Calliope came out, dressed in scrubs, her hair tucked away and her face all business. She looked so different. Suddenly she seemed like a real pro.
She explained the consent forms quickly and efficiently.
“The surgery’s got a high success rate, but there are always risks,” she said, flipping through the paperwork.
Zelda opened her mouth, but Monty cut her off. “C’mon, don’t make this any harder. Callie knows what she’s doing. She’s the Miracle Doctor, remember? If anything went wrong, her reputation would be toast! And she’s our family. We gotta trust her.”
“Right, Callie?” He smiled at her, but there was a challenge in his eyes, too.
Calliope just shot him a cool glance. She didn’t say a word, just slid the forms across the table. “Sign here if you want me to go ahead.”
Monty grabbed a pen and scrawled his name.

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......
