Calliope and Archie sat together for a while, talking quietly as she filled him in on everything she knew.
Archie fell silent, lost in thought for a long time.
“I can’t believe she’s really that complicated,” he finally said. “So, even my father didn’t know who she really was? And you think there’s a good chance Chester isn’t my dad’s biological son?”
Calliope nodded. “That’s what my gut tells me. Of course, I can’t say for sure. I haven’t looked into it. But you could find out, if you wanted to. It’s your family business, so I stayed out of it.”
She looked Archie in the eye. “But if you ever need help, just say the word. I can help you dig up the truth.”
Archie shook his head. “I’ll handle it myself. If Chester turns out not to be his son, well… that’s going to be interesting.”
He smirked, imagining Gavin realizing his favorite youngest son wasn’t his own flesh and blood. Archie knew exactly how that would feel for the old man. And honestly? He’d enjoy watching him squirm. After all, Gavin had spent years putting Archie through hell for Chester’s sake.
“Alright,” Calliope said, not pushing further. She trusted Archie’s abilities.
She knew that if Archie put his mind to it, Gavin wouldn’t stand a chance. The only reason Archie had ever held back was because Gavin was his father. But after everything that had happened… that bond was broken.
Archie was smart. He was more than capable.
“It’s late. Get some rest,” Calliope said, giving his shoulder a friendly pat. “It’s the holidays, after all. If we don’t enjoy it, we’re just letting them win.”
Archie nodded. “I know. Don’t worry about me. Cutting ties with them is the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time.”

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......
