Ulysses stood off to the side, watching Calliope.
He couldn’t help but notice she had three brothers—and not just any brothers. These guys were nothing like him or his own family. They were taller, more charming, looked like they’d just stepped out of a GQ photo shoot. And the way they treated Calliope? You’d think she was made of glass and spun sugar.
They absolutely adored her.
Ulysses just stared, feeling all sorts of things—none of them great. Especially when he looked at Julius. Everyone knew Julius: the guy was a big deal in show business, the kind of person whose name always got whispered at parties. Compared to Julius, Ulysses was, well… nobody, not even in the same league.
And this Julius was Calliope’s third brother? So what did that make Ulysses, her “real” third brother? A distant runner-up, at best.
Of course Calliope didn’t acknowledge him. Honestly, if he was in her shoes, he’d probably pick Julius as his brother too. Who wouldn’t want a famous, successful brother over, well… him?
It made sense, but it stung all the same.
He stood there, lost in thought, until he realized Quentin and Norton were both staring right at him. They had this presence about them—like they could command a room just by walking in—and now they were heading his way.
They stopped in front of him, looking down their noses.
“You’re Ulysses, right?” Quentin said, his tone sharp. “Listen, the Jewell family never really cared about our Callie. That’s fine. She’s never been short on brothers. She’s got us, and that’s all she needs.”
“Now you’ve seen it with your own eyes. So remember this: lay off Callie. If you mess with her, we’ll make it our business to make things right.”
“She’s our little sister, and we’re crazy about her. We’d never let anything happen to her. We don’t care if you’re a blood brother or whatever. You don’t want her, fine. But don’t you dare make her life harder.”
Norton nodded in agreement, “Honestly, if Callie didn’t have such a big heart, who among us would even look twice at the Jewell family? We’ve got more money, more style, and let’s face it, we look a hell of a lot better on the family Christmas card.”

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......
