None of them noticed it, except Ulysses. No wonder he’d been acting so weird lately. Clearly, he’d been hung up on this for a while.
Lisette forced a shaky smile. “Ulysses, I’m actually closer to you guys than to my biological parents. I barely even know them. They’re the ones who reached out to me. I wanted to tell you, I really did, but I was scared you’d judge me… I’ve been racking my brain for how to say it.”
“I’m sorry. This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have kept it from you! Ulysses, is this why you’ve been so distant? Is this why you’re mad at me?”
Lisette looked absolutely crushed with guilt.
“I’m sorry, really. It’s all on me. I messed up. If it bothers you that much, I’ll leave the Jewell family right now. I’ll pack my bags, and I’ll go. I promise I won’t make a scene.”
She straightened her shoulders, bracing herself, and headed for the door, half-expecting Ulysses to stop her.
But he didn’t.
She made it all the way to the front door, pulled it open, and still nothing. Ulysses didn’t say a word.
Lisette walked out, her face pale with humiliation and anger.
He really didn’t try to stop her. He didn’t even glance her way.
She lingered outside the door for a while, hoping he’d come after her. But Ulysses never appeared.
Damned Calliope.
Ever since Calliope blabbed, Ulysses had been looking at her differently.
Damned Calliope!
Lisette cursed her under her breath as she finally gave up and slunk back to her room, her thoughts a tangled mess.

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......
