“Archie, are you seriously talking back to me right now?” Gavin’s voice was sharp, brimming with authority and frustration as he glared at Archie.
“That’s right. I won’t go through with your arranged marriage,” Archie replied, his tone unwavering. “Anything else, sure, but not this. There’s nothing to discuss.”
Gavin scoffed, “Let me guess, you heard some rumor that Ms. Yalton is ugly and now you’re scared off?”
He turned to Archie’s stepmother, who chimed in with a knowing smile, “Actually, I’ve met Ms. Yalton. She’s not unattractive at all. Maybe she’s not exactly a genius, but honestly, a girl who’s too clever is harder to handle. A sweet, simple wife makes a good homemaker, if you ask me. I’m not trying to ruin your life, Archie. I only want what’s best for you.”
“You really don’t get it,” she added with a sigh, “I’ve always treated you like my own son.”
Archie couldn’t help but laugh as he looked at his stepmother. “Really? Isn’t it more about making sure I don’t get in Chester’s way when it comes to the family fortune?”
“If you treat me like your own son,” he continued, “why don’t you try these tricks on Chester and see how that goes?”
Then Archie turned to Gavin, his voice steady. “I’m not getting married. I won’t do it. What are you going to do, drag me down the aisle yourself?”
His eyes were clear and resolute. He might compromise on other things, but not this.
Gavin’s expression darkened, his temper boiling over. Suddenly, he kicked out, sending the coffee table skittering into Archie’s shins.
Archie stumbled, caught off guard, and hit the floor hard. He shot Gavin a look, silent, but full of meaning.
“So, you’re going to be disobedient, huh?” Gavin snarled. “I’m your father. If I say you’re getting married, you’re getting married. I don’t need your approval!”

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......
