Ulysses frowned, his jaw tightening. “Franco, did you just say we’re not even as good as dogs?”
He sounded genuinely offended.
“Did I stutter?” Franco shrugged, completely unfazed. “Just calling it like I see it. The only reason you’re still living the good life is because my boss keeps covering your asses. If she stopped bailing you out, the Jewell Group would’ve gone bankrupt months ago. You’d all be up to your necks in debt.”
Valerian and Ulysses shot Franco a pair of icy glares.
“We’re not useless! Even if she didn’t help, we’d figure something out!” Valerian insisted stubbornly. “Calliope, you’re only running things here because you blackmailed us into it, not because we need you!”
Calliope just stared at him, speechless for a moment.
Funny, how not long ago they’d practically been on their knees, begging her to take charge. And now they acted as if she’d stolen their inheritance.
Honestly, she was done trying to talk sense into them. The more she dealt with these brothers, the more she realized how pointless it was.
The elevator doors slid open. Calliope stepped out with Franco close behind.
Franco glanced back at the Jewell brothers, shaking his head in exasperation. He’d spelled it out for them in plain English, but they never thought they were to blame for anything. Some people just couldn’t be helped.

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......
